1 UBalami wasesithi kuBalaki: Ngakhela lapha amalathi ayisikhombisa, ungilungisele lapha amajongosi ayisikhombisa lenqama eziyisikhombisa.
Balaam Balaⱪⱪa: — Sili muxu yǝrgǝ manga yǝttǝ ⱪurbangaⱨ yasitip bǝrsilǝ, muxu yǝrgǝ yǝnǝ yǝttǝ buⱪa bilǝn yǝttǝ ⱪoxⱪarmu ⱨazirlap bǝrsilǝ, — dedi.
2 UBalaki wenza njengokutsho kukaBalami; uBalaki loBalami basebenikela kulelo lalelo ilathi ijongosi lenqama.
Balaⱪ Balaamning deginidǝk ⱪilip bǝrdi; Balaⱪ bilǝn Balaam ikkisi ⱨǝrbir ⱪurbangaⱨⱪa ⱪurbanliⱪ ⱪilixⱪa birdin buⱪa bilǝn birdin ⱪoxⱪar sundi.
3 UBalami wasesithi kuBalaki: Mana emnikelweni wakho wokutshiswa, ngizahamba mina; mhlawumbe iNkosi izafika ukungihlangabeza; lento ezangitshengisa yona ngizakutshela. Wasesiya endaweni ephakemeyo.
Balaam Balaⱪⱪa: — Sili ɵz kɵydürmǝ ⱪurbanliⱪlirining yenida tursila, mǝn aldiƣa barimǝn, Pǝrwǝrdigar mening bilǝn kɵrüxüxkǝ kelǝmdikin? U manga nemǝ dǝp kɵrsǝtmǝ bǝrsǝ, mǝn ɵzlirigǝ xuni dǝp berimǝn, — dedi wǝ bir dɵnggǝ qiⱪti.
4 UNkulunkulu wasehlangana loBalami; wasesithi kuye: Sengilungise amalathi ayisikhombisa, nganikela kulelo lalelo ilathi ijongosi lenqama.
Huda Balaam bilǝn kɵrüxti; Balaam Hudaƣa: — Mǝn yǝttǝ ⱪurbangaⱨ ⱨazirlattim, ⱨǝrbir ⱪurbangaⱨⱪa ⱪurbanliⱪ süpitidǝ birdin buⱪa bilǝn birdin ⱪoxⱪar sundum, — dedi.
5 INkosi yasifaka ilizwi emlonyeni kaBalami, yathi: Buyela kuBalaki, ukhulume kanje.
Pǝrwǝrdigar Balaamning aƣziƣa bir sɵzni selip: — Balaⱪning yeniƣa ⱪaytip berip uningƣa mundaⱪ, mundaⱪ degin, — dedi.
6 Wasebuyela kuye, khangela-ke, wayemi emnikelweni wakhe wokutshiswa, yena lazo zonke iziphathamandla zakoMowabi.
Xuning bilǝn u Balaⱪning yeniƣa ⱪaytip bardi. Mana, u wǝ Moabning barliⱪ ǝmirliri uning kɵydürmǝ ⱪurbanliⱪining yenida turatti.
7 Wasephakamisa umzekeliso wakhe, wathi: UBalaki, inkosi yakoMowabi, ungilandile eSiriya, ezintabeni zempumalanga wathi: Woza, ungiqalekisele uJakobe, woza, umthuke uIsrayeli.
Balaam kalam sɵzini aƣziƣa elip mundaⱪ dedi: — Balaⱪ meni Aram degǝn yurttin, Moab xaⱨi Balaⱪ meni mǝxriⱪ taƣliridin elip kelip, Mundaⱪ dedi: — Kǝl, mening üqün Yaⱪupni ⱪarƣiƣin. Kǝl, Israilni rasa bir sɵküp ǝyibligin.
8 Ngingamqalekisa njani uNkulunkulu angamqalekisiyo? Kumbe ngingamthuka njani iNkosi engamthukanga?
Tǝngri Ɵzi ⱪarƣimiƣan birawni mǝn ⱪandaⱪ ⱪarƣay? Pǝrwǝrdigar Ɵzi sɵküp ǝyiblimigǝn birawni mǝn ⱪandaⱪ sɵküp ǝyiblǝy?
9 Ngoba ngisengqongeni yamadwala ngiyambona, ngisemaqaqeni ngiyamkhangela. Khangela, abantu bazahlala bodwa, kabayikubalelwa phakathi kwezizwe.
Mǝn ⱪoram taxlarning qoⱪⱪilirida turup uni kɵrmǝktimǝn, Dɵnglǝrdǝ turup uningƣa nǝzǝr salmaⱪtimǝn; Mana, ular yǝkkǝ yaxaydiƣan bir ⱪowm, Ular baxⱪa ⱪowmlarning ⱪatarida sanalmaydu.
10 Ngubani ongabala uthuli lukaJakobe, lenani lengxenye yesine kaIsrayeli? Umphefumulo wami kawufe ukufa kwabalungileyo, lokuphela kwami kube njengokwakhe!
Yaⱪupning topilirini kim ⱨesablap qiⱪalaydu? Ⱨǝtta Israilning tɵttin birinimu kim sanap qiⱪalaydu? Mening jenim ⱨǝⱪⱪaniyning ɵlümidǝk ɵlsun, Mening ahirim uningkidǝk bolƣay!
11 UBalaki wasesithi kuBalami: Wenzeni kimi? Ngikuthethe ukuze uqalekise izitha zami, kodwa khangela, uzibusisile lokuzibusisa.
Balaⱪ Balaamƣa ⱪarap: — Sǝn manga nemǝ ⱪiliwatisǝn?! Mǝn seni düxmǝnlirimni ⱪarƣap berixkǝ qaⱪiritⱪan tursam, mana sǝn ǝksiqǝ pütünlǝy ularƣa amǝt tiliding! — dedi.
12 Wasephendula wathi: Lokho iNkosi ekufaka emlonyeni wami, kakumelanga ngiqaphele yini ukukukhuluma?
— Pǝrwǝrdigarning aƣzimƣa salƣinini yǝtküzüxkǝ kɵngül ⱪoymisam bolamti? — dǝp jawap bǝrdi Balaam.
13 UBalaki wasesithi kuye: Ake uze lami siye kwenye indawo lapho ozababona khona; uzabona ukucina kwabo kuphela, ungaboni bonke; njalo ungiqalekisele bona ulapho.
Balaⱪ Balaamƣa: — Mening bilǝn billǝ baxⱪa bir yǝrgǝ barsila, ularni xu yǝrdin kɵrǝlǝyla; biraⱪ ularning ⱨǝmmisini ǝmǝs, ularning qegridiki bir ⱪisminila kɵrǝlǝyla; sili xu yǝrdǝ turup ularni mǝn üqün ⱪarƣap bǝrsilǝ, — dedi.
14 Njalo wamthatha wamusa ensimini yeZofimu, engqongeni yePisiga; wakha amalathi ayisikhombisa, wanikela ijongosi lenqama phezu kwalelo lalelo ilathi.
Xuning bilǝn Balaⱪ Balaamni «Zofimning dalasi»ƣa, Pisgaⱨ teƣining qoⱪⱪisiƣa baxlap berip, xu yǝrdǝ yǝttǝ ⱪurbangaⱨ saldurup, ⱨǝrbir ⱪurbangaⱨⱪa ⱪurbanliⱪ süpitidǝ birdin buⱪa, birdin ⱪoxⱪar sundi.
15 Wasesithi kuBalaki: Mana lapha emnikelweni wakho wokutshiswa, njalo mina ngizahlangana layo laphayana.
Balaam Balaⱪⱪa: — Sili muxu yǝrdǝ ɵzlirining kɵydürmǝ ⱪurbanliⱪlirining yenida turup tursila, mǝn awu yaⱪⱪa berip kɵrüxüp kelǝy, — dedi.
16 INkosi yasihlangana loBalami, yafaka ilizwi emlonyeni wakhe, yathi: Buyela kuBalaki, ukhulume kanje.
Pǝrwǝrdigar Balaam bilǝn kɵrüxüp, uning aƣziƣa bir sɵzni selip: — Sǝn Balaⱪning yeniƣa ⱪaytip uningƣa mundaⱪ, mundaⱪ degin, — dedi.
17 Esefikile kuye, khangela-ke wema emnikelweni wakhe wokutshiswa leziphathamandla zakoMowabi zilaye. UBalaki wasesithi kuye: INkosi itheni?
Balaam Balaⱪning yeniƣa ⱪaytip kǝlgǝndǝ, mana, u wǝ Moabning barliⱪ ǝmirliri uning kɵydürmǝ ⱪurbanliⱪining yenida turatti. — Pǝrwǝrdigar nemǝ dedi? — dǝp soridi Balaⱪ.
18 Wasephakamisa umfanekiso wakhe wathi: Sukuma, Balaki, uzwe, ubeke indlebe, ndodana kaZipori.
Balaam kalam sɵzini aƣziƣa elip mundaⱪ dedi: — «Ⱨǝy Balaⱪ, sǝn ⱪopup angliƣin, Aⱨ, Zipporning oƣli, manga ⱪulaⱪ salƣin.
19 UNkulunkulu kasumuntu ukuthi aqambe amanga, loba indodana yomuntu ukuthi azisole. Utshilo, kanti kayikukwenza? Kumbe ukhulumile, kanti kayikukuqinisa?
Tǝngri insan ǝmǝstur, U yalƣan eytmaydu, Yaki adǝm balisimu ǝmǝstur, U puxayman ⱪilmaydu. U degǝnikǝn, ixⱪa axurmay ⱪalamdu? U sɵz ⱪilƣanikǝn, wujudⱪa qiⱪarmay ⱪalamdu?
20 Khangela, ngemukele ukuthi ngibusise; yebo, ubusisile, njalo ngingeke ngikuguqule.
Mana, manga «bǝrikǝtlǝ» dǝp tapxuruldi, U bǝrikǝtligǝnikǝn, buni mǝn yanduralmaymǝn.
21 Kakhangelanga ububi kuJakobe, kabonanga isiphambeko kuIsrayeli. INkosi uNkulunkulu wakhe ilaye, lesimemezelo senkosi siphakathi kwakhe.
U Yaⱪupta ⱨeq gunaⱨ kɵrmigǝn, Israilda naⱨǝⱪliⱪni uqratmiƣan. Hudasi Pǝrwǝrdigar uning bilǝn billǝ, Padixaⱨning tǝntǝnǝ awazi uning arisididur.
22 UNkulunkulu wabakhupha eGibhithe, ulokunjengamandla enyathi.
Tǝngri uni Misirdin elip qiⱪⱪan; Uningda yawa kaliningkidǝk küq bardur.
23 Isibili kakulamlingo ongamelana loJakobe, loba ukuvumisa okungamelana loIsrayeli. Ngalesisikhathi kuzatshiwo ngoJakobe langoIsrayeli ukuthi uNkulunkulu akwenzileyo!
Qünki Yaⱪuplarƣa ǝpsun karƣa kǝlmǝydu, Israillarƣimu pal karƣa kǝlmǝydu. Waⱪti-saiti kǝlgǝndǝ, Yaⱪup bilǝn Israil toƣrisida: — «Tǝngri nǝⱪǝdǝr karamǝt ix ⱪilip bǝrgǝn-ⱨǝ!» Dǝp jakarlanmay ⱪalmaydu!
24 Khangela, abantu bazasukuma njengesilwane esisikazi, bazisukumise njengesilwane; kabalali baze badle impango, njalo banathe igazi lababuleweyo.
Mana, bu ⱪowm qixi xirdǝk ⱪopidu, Ərkǝk xirdǝk ⱪǝddini ruslaydu; Ɵzi owliƣan owni yemigüqǝ, Ɵltürgǝnlǝrning ⱪenini iqmigüqǝ, Ⱨǝrgiz yatmaydu!».
25 UBalaki wasesithi kuBalami: Futhi ungabaqalekisi lokubaqalekisa, njalo ungababusisi lokubabusisa.
Balaⱪ Balaamƣa: — Boldi, sili ularni azraⱪmu ⱪarƣimisila, ularƣa amǝtmu tilimisilǝ! — dedi.
26 Kodwa uBalami waphendula wathi kuBalaki: Kangikutshelanga yini ngisithi: Konke iNkosi ekutshoyo, lokho ngizakwenza?
Balaam Balaⱪⱪa jawab ⱪilip: — Mǝn siligǝ: — «Pǝrwǝrdigarning manga eytⱪanlirining ⱨǝmmisigǝ ǝmǝl ⱪilmisam bolmaydu» degǝn ǝmǝsmidim? — dedi.
27 UBalaki wasesithi kuBalami: Ake uze, ngizakusa kwenye indawo; mhlawumbe kungaqonda emehlweni kaNkulunkulu ukuthi ungiqalekisele bona ulapho.
Balaⱪ Balaamƣa: — Kǝlsilǝ, mǝn silini baxⱪa bir yǝrgǝ apiray, Hudaning nǝziridǝ sili xu yǝrdǝ turup ularni ⱪarƣaxliri muwapiⱪ tepilarmikin? — dedi.
28 UBalaki wamthatha wamusa uBalami engqongeni yePeyori ekhangele ngasenkangala.
Xuning bilǝn Balaⱪ Balaamni baxlap, qɵl-bayawanƣa ⱪaraydiƣan Peor teƣining qoⱪⱪisiƣa kǝldi.
29 UBalami wasesithi kuBalaki: Ngakhela lapha amalathi ayisikhombisa, ungilungisele lapha amajongosi ayisikhombisa lenqama eziyisikhombisa.
Balaam Balaⱪⱪa: — Sili bu yǝrdǝ manga yǝttǝ ⱪurbangaⱨ saldurup bǝrsilǝ, yǝttǝ buⱪa bilǝn yǝttǝ ⱪoxⱪarmu tǝyyarlap bǝrsilǝ, — dedi.
30 UBalaki wasesenza njengokutsho kukaBalami, wanikela ijongosi lenqama kulelo lalelo ilathi.
Balaⱪ Balaamning deginidǝk ⱪildi, ⱨǝrbir ⱪurbangaⱨⱪa birdin buⱪa bilǝn birdin ⱪoqⱪar sundi.
