1 Olimele emasendeni, loba oqunywe amaphambili, angangeni ebandleni leNkosi.
Ɔbarima a wɔasa no anaa wɔatwa ne barima akyene no mma Awurade bagua ase.
2 Ozelwe ngobufebe angangeni ebandleni leNkosi; ngitsho isizukulwana sakhe setshumi kasiyikungena ebandleni leNkosi.
Wɔn a wɔyɛ mpenamma ne wɔn aseni biara, mpo enkosi awo ntoatoaso du no, mma Awurade bagua ase.
3 UmAmoni lomMowabi kangangeni ebandleni leNkosi; ngitsho isizukulwana sabo setshumi kasiyikungena ebandleni leNkosi, kuze kube laphakade;
Amonfo anaa Moabfo anaasɛ wɔn asefo biara, mpo enkosi awo ntoatoaso du no mu biara mma Awurade bagua ase.
4 ngenxa yokuthi kabalihlangabezanga endleleni ngesinkwa langamanzi ekuphumeni kwenu eGibhithe; futhi ngoba baqhatsha ukumelana lawe uBalami indodana kaBeyori owePethori oweMesopotamiya ukuze akuqalekise.
Saa aman yi annye mo, amma mo aduan anaasɛ nsu, bere a mufi Misraim reba no. Mmom, wɔkɔbɔɔ Beor babarima Balaam a ofi Petor a ɛwɔ Mesopotamia paa sɛ ɔmmɛdome mo.
5 Kodwa iNkosi uNkulunkulu wakho kayifunanga ukuzwa uBalami; kodwa iNkosi uNkulunkulu wakho yaphendula isiqalekiso saba yisibusiso kuwe, ngoba iNkosi uNkulunkulu wakho yakuthanda.
Nanso Awurade, mo Nyankopɔn no, antie Balaam. Ɔdan nnome no maa ɛyɛɛ nhyira maa mo, efisɛ Awurade mo Nyankopɔn no, dɔ mo.
6 Kawuyikudinga ukuthula kwabo lokuhle kwabo zonke izinsuku zakho, kuze kube laphakade.
Na sɛ mote ase yi, mo ne Amonfo ne Moabfo nnyɛ ayɔnkofa apam koraa.
7 Unganengwa ngumEdoma, ngoba ungumfowenu; unganengwa ngumGibhithe, ngoba wawungowemzini elizweni lakhe.
Munnkyi Edomfo anaa Misraimfo, efisɛ Edomfo yɛ mo nuanom, na motenaa Misraimfo nso mu sɛ ahɔho.
8 Abantwana abazalwa yibo, besizukulwana sesithathu sabo, bangangena ebandleni leNkosi.
Wɔn awo ntoatoaso abiɛsa so mma no betumi akɔ Awurade bagua ase.
9 Lapho inkamba iphuma ukuyamelana lezitha zakho, uzazigcina kuyo yonke into embi.
Sɛ mokɔ ɔko de tia mo atamfo a, montwe mo ho mfi nea ɛho ntew biara ho.
10 Uba ekhona phakathi kwenu umuntu ongahlambulukanga ngenxa yokungcola okwehla ebusuku, uzaphumela ngaphandle kwenkamba, angangeni phakathi kwenkamba.
Sɛ ɔbarima bi ho gu fi esiane anadwo mu ho nsu a ɛsen a, ɛsɛ sɛ ofi atenae hɔ kɔtena baabi da mu no nyinaa.
11 Kodwa kuzakuthi sekuzakuhlwa uzageza ngamanzi, lalapho ilanga selitshonile angene aye phakathi kwenkamba.
Edu anwummere a, ɛsɛ sɛ oguare na owia kɔtɔ a, otumi san ba atenae hɔ.
12 Njalo uzakuba lendawo ngaphandle kwenkamba lapho ozaphumela khona ukuya ngaphandle,
Muntwa asraafo atenae hɔ baabi nto hɔ a mubegya mo anan.
13 ube lesikhonkwane ezikhalini zakho; njalo kuzakuthi usuye ngaphandle, ugebhe ngaso, uphenduke ugqibele okuphume kuwe.
Mofa biribi nka ne nneɛma ho a mode betu fam. Bere biara a mubegya mo anan no, momfa sofi no ntu amoa na monkata agyanan no so.
14 Ngoba iNkosi uNkulunkulu wakho iyahamba phakathi kwenkamba yakho, ukukukhulula, lokunikela izitha zakho phambi kwakho. Ngakho inkamba yakho izakuba ngcwele, ukuze ingaboni lutho oluyangisayo phakathi kwakho, ikufulathele.
Ɛsɛ sɛ asraafo atenae hɔ yɛ kronkron, efisɛ Awurade, mo Nyankopɔn no, nam mo atenae no so bɔ mo ho ban na moadi mo atamfo so nkonim. Ɛnsɛ sɛ ohu animguasede biara wɔ mo mu; sɛ ɛba saa a, ɔbɛdan nʼakyi akyerɛ mo.
15 Unganikeli enkosini yaso isigqili esibalekele kuwe sisuka enkosini yaso;
Sɛ nkoa guan ba mo nkyɛn bɛbɔ wɔn ho aguaa a, munnyi wɔn mma wɔn wuranom.
16 sizahlala lawe phakathi kwakho, endaweni esizayikhetha, kwelinye lamasango akho, lapho okusilungele khona; ungasicindezeli.
Momma wɔntena mo mu wɔ kurow biara a wɔpɛ so a monnyɛ wɔn ayayade.
17 Kakungabi khona iwule elethempeli phakathi kwamadodakazi akoIsrayeli, njalo kakungabi khona inkotshana phakathi kwamadodana akoIsrayeli.
Ɛnsɛ sɛ Israelni barima anaa ɔbea biara yɛ nsɔree so oguamanfo.
18 Ungalethi iholo lewule lemali yenja endlini yeNkosi uNkulunkulu wakho ngokwaloba yisiphi isithembiso; ngoba lokho kokubili kuyisinengiso eNkosini uNkulunkulu wakho.
Mommfa afɔrebɔde anaa adenya bi a efi oguamanfo nkyɛn, sɛ ɔyɛ ɔbarima anaa ɔbea, mma Awurade, mo Nyankopɔn no, fi, efisɛ ɛyɛ Awurade, mo Nyankopɔn no, akyiwade.
19 Ungeboleki umfowenu ngenzalo, inzalo yemali, inzalo yokudla, inzalo yaloba yiyiphi into ebolekwa ngenzalo.
Bosea a mobɔ mo yɔnko Israelni no, sɛ ɛyɛ sika, aduan anaa biribi foforo bi a wogye ho mfɛntom no, monnnye ho mfɛntom.
20 Ungeboleka owezizweni ngenzalo, kodwa ungeboleki umfowenu ngenzalo, ukuze iNkosi uNkulunkulu wakho ikubusise kukho konke ofaka isandla sakho kukho elizweni oya kulo ukudla ilifa lalo.
Mutumi gye bosea ho mfɛntom fi ahɔho nkyɛn na nyɛ Israelfo nkyɛn sɛnea Awurade, mo Nyankopɔn no, behyira mo wɔ biribiara a moyɛ mu wɔ asase a morekɔ so akɔfa no so.
21 Nxa uthembisa isithembiso eNkosini uNkulunkulu wakho, ungaphuzi ukusikhokha; ngoba iNkosi uNkulunkulu wakho izasibiza lokusibiza kuwe; njalo kuzakuba yisono kuwe.
Sɛ mohyɛ Awurade, mo Nyankopɔn no, bɔ a, biribiara a mohyɛɛ no ho bɔ no, monyɛ no ntɛm so. Efisɛ ɛdan dɛn ara a Awurade, mo Nyankopɔn no, bɛdan mo ka na mubedi bɔne ho fɔ.
22 Kodwa uba uyekela ukuthembisa, kakuyikuba yisono kuwe.
Nanso sɛ moanhyɛ biribiara ho bɔ a, monyɛɛ bɔne biara.
23 Lokho okuphuma endebeni zakho uzakugcina ukwenze; njengokuthembisa kwakho eNkosini uNkulunkulu wakho, umnikelo wesihle owukhulume ngomlomo wakho.
Na sɛ wo ara wufi wo pɛ mu hyɛ bɔ a, hwɛ yiye na di asɛm a woaka no so, efisɛ Awurade, mo Nyankopɔn no, na woafi wo pɛ mu de wʼano ahyɛ no bɔ.
24 Nxa ungena esivinini somakhelwane wakho, ungadla izithelo zevini njengokuthanda kwakho usuthe; kodwa ungafaki lutho esitsheni sakho.
Wutumi di bobe aba dodow biara a wopɛ wɔ wo yɔnko bobeturo mu, nanso mfa bi ngu kɛntɛn mu nkɔ.
25 Nxa ungena emabeleni amileyo kamakhelwane wakho, ungakha izikhwebu ngesandla sakho; kodwa ungangenisi isikela emabeleni amileyo kamakhelwane wakho.
Saa ara na mubetumi de mo nsa abubu atoko kakra wɔ mo yɔnko afum, nanso ɛnsɛ sɛ mode afoa twa.
