Lakkoobsa 23
1 Balaʼaamis Baalaaqiin, “Iddoo aarsaa torba asitti naaf ijaari; amma illee korommii loonii torbaa fi korbeeyyii hoolaa torba naa qopheessi” jedhe.
Balaamu anati kwa Balaki, “Mundimangire maguwa ansembe asanu ndi awiri pano, ndipo mukonzenso ngʼombe zazimuna zisanu ndi ziwiri ndi nkhosa zazimuna zisanu ndi ziwiri.”
2 Baalaaqis akkuma Balaʼaam jedhe sana godhe; isaan lamaan tokkoo tokkoo iddoo aarsaa irratti korma looniitii fi korbeessa hoolaa tokko tokko aarsaa dhiʼeessan.
Balaki anachita monga Balaamu ananenera ndipo awiriwo anapereka ngʼombe imodzi ndi nkhosa yayimuna imodzi pa guwa lansembe lililonse.
3 Ergasii Balaʼaam Baalaaqiin akkana jedhe; “Ani xinnoo achi sirraa nan siqa; ati immoo asuma aarsaa kee bira turi. Tarii Waaqayyo anaa wajjin wal arguuf ni dhufa taʼa. Waan inni natti mulʼisu kam iyyuu ani sittin hima.” Innis gara gaara tokkoo dhaqe.
Kenaka Balaamu anati kwa Balaki, “Khalani pano pafupi ndi nsembe yanu ineyo ndipite pambali. Mwina Yehova adzabwera kuti akumane nane. Chilichonse chimene akandionetse ndidzakuwuzani” Choncho anapita ku malo okwera a chipululu.
4 Waaqayyo isaan wal arginaan Balaʼaam, “Ani iddoo aarsaa torba qopheessee tokkoo tokkoo isaa irratti korma loonii tokkoo fi korbeessa hoolaa tokko qopheesseera” jedhe.
Mulungu anakumana naye ndipo Balaamu anati, “Ndakonza maguwa asanu ndi awiri ndipo pa guwa lililonse ndaperekapo nsembe ya ngʼombe yayimuna imodzi ndi nkhosa yayimuna imodzinso.”
5 Waaqayyo ergaa tokko afaan Balaʼaam keessa kaaʼee, “Baalaaqitti deebiʼiitii ergaa kana itti himi” jedheen.
Yehova anawuza Balaamu kuti, “Bwerera kwa Balaki ndipo ukamuwuze uthenga uwu.”
6 Balaʼaam Baalaaqitti deebiʼee isaa qondaaltota Moʼaab wajjin aarsaa isaa bira dhaabatu arge.
Ndipo anabwerera kwa iye namupeza atayima pafupi ndi nsembe yake pamodzi ndi akuluakulu onse a Mowabu.
7 Balaʼaam ergaa isaa akkana jedhee dubbate: “Baalaaq Arraam irraa, mootichi Moʼaab gaarran baʼaa irraa na fide. Innis, ‘Kottuutii Yaaqoobin naa abaari; kottuutii Israaʼelin naa balaaleffadhu’ jedhe.
Ndipo Balaamu ananena uthenga wake: “Balaki ananditenga kuchoka ku Aramu, mfumu ya ku Mowabu kuchokera ku mapiri a kummawa. Iye anati, ‘Bwera, temberera Yakobo mʼmalo mwanga, pita nyoza Israeli.’
8 Ani akkamittan warra Waaqni hin abaarin abaaruu dandaʼa? Ani akkamittan warra Waaqayyo hin balaaleffatin balaaleffachuu dandaʼa?
Ndingatemberere bwanji amene Mulungu sanawatemberere? Ndinganyoze bwanji amene Yehova sanawanyoze?
9 Fiixee gaarranii irraa ani isa nan arga; tulluuwwan irraas isa nan ilaala. Saba kophaa isaa jiraatu, kan saba kaan keessatti of hin lakkoofne nan arga.
Kuchokera pamwamba pa mapiri ndikuona anthu, ndikuwaona kuchokera pa zitunda. Ndikuona anthu okhala pawokha, osakhala mʼgulu limodzi ndi mitundu ina.
10 Eenyutu awwaara Yaaqoob lakkaaʼuu dandaʼa? Eenyutu Israaʼel keessaa kurmaana isaa illee lakkaaʼa? Ani duʼa nama qajeelaa haa duʼu; dhumni koos akkuma dhuma isaa haa taʼu!”
Ndani angawerenge zidzukulu za Yakobo zochuluka ngati fumbi, kapena chimodzi mwa zigawo zinayi za Israeli? Lekeni ndife imfa ya oyera mtima, ndi chimaliziro changa chikhale ngati chawo!”
11 Baalaaqis Balaʼaamiin, “Wanni ati na goote kun maali? Ani akka ati diina koo naa abaartuufin si fide; ati kunoo isaan eebbifte malee waan tokko iyyuu isaan hin goone!” jedhe.
Balaki anati kwa Balaamu, “Wandichitira chiyani? Ndinakuyitana kuti utemberere adani anga, ndipo taona, sunachite chilichonse koma kuwadalitsa!”
12 Innis, “Ani waan Waaqayyo afaan koo keessa kaaʼu hin dubbadhuu?” jedhee deebii kenneef.
Iye anayankha kuti, “Kodi sindinayenera kuyankhula zimene Yehova anandiwuza?”
13 Baalaaq, “Mee gara lafa itti isaan arguu dandeessu biraa na wajjin kottu; ati gara tokko qofa malee hunduma isaanii arguu hin dandeessu. Achiis isaan naa abaari” jedheen.
Kenaka Balaki anawuza Balaamu kuti, “Tiye tipite limodzi ku malo ena komwe ungawaone. Udzangoona gulu limodzi osati onsewo. Ndipo pamenepo, ukawatemberere mʼmalo mwanga.”
14 Inni gara dirree Xoofiim kan fiixee Phisgaa irratti argamuutti isa geesse; achittis iddoo aarsaa torba ijaaree tokkoo tokkoo iddoo aarsaa sanaa irratti korma loonii tokkoo fi korbeessa hoolaa tokko aarsaa dhiʼeesse.
Tsono anamutengera ku munda wa Zofimu pamwamba pa phiri la Pisiga ndipo kumeneko anamanga maguwa ansembe asanu ndi awiri ndipo anapereka nsembe ngʼombe yayimuna imodzi ndi nkhosa yayimuna imodzi pa guwa lansembe lililonse.
15 Balaʼaamis Baalaaqiin, “Ati hamma ani achi siqee Waaqa wajjin wal argutti asuma aarsaa kee bira turi” jedhe.
Balaamu anawuza Balaki kuti, “Khalani pano pafupi ndi nsembe yanu pamene ine ndikukakumana ndi Mulungu cha uko.”
16 Waaqayyo Balaʼaam wajjin wal argee ergaa tokko afaan isaa keessa kaaʼee, “Baalaaqitti deebiʼiitii ergaa kana itti himi” jedheen.
Yehova anakumana ndi Balaamu ndipo anamuyankhula kuti, “Bwerera kwa Balaki ndipo ukamuwuze uthenga uwu.”
17 Balaʼaam Baalaaq bira dhaqee isaa qondaaltota Moʼaab wajjin aarsaa isaa bira dhaabatu arge. Baalaaqis, “Waaqayyo maal jedhe?” jedhee Balaʼaamiin gaafate.
Ndipo anapita kwa iye ndipo anamupeza atayimirira pafupi ndi nsembe yake pamodzi ndi akuluakulu a ku Mowabu. Balaki anafunsa Balaamu kuti, “Yehova wayankhula chiyani?”
18 Balaʼaam akkana jedhee ergaa isaa dubbate: “Yaa Baalaaq, kaʼiitii dhaggeeffadhu; yaa ilma Ziphoori na dhagaʼi.
Pamenepo Balaamu ananena uthenga wake: “Nyamuka Balaki ndipo tamvera; Undimvere iwe mwana wa Zipori.
19 Waaqni nama miti; inni hin sobu; yookaan gaabbuudhaaf inni ilma namaa miti. Inni waa dubbatee ergasii hin hojjetuu? Inni waa abdachiisee ergasii hin raawwatuu?
Mulungu si munthu kuti aname, kapena mwana wa munthu kuti asinthe maganizo ake. Kodi amayankhula koma osachita? Kodi amalonjeza koma osakwaniritsa?
20 Kunoo ani eebbisuudhaaf ajaja argadheera; inni eebbiseera; anis geeddaruu hin dandaʼu.
Wandilamula kuti ndidalitse, Iyeyo wadalitsa ndipo sindingasinthe.
21 “Inni Yaaqoob keessatti daba hin argine; rakkina tokko illee Israaʼel keessatti hin argine. Waaqayyo Waaqni isaanii isaan wajjin jira; ililleen Mootii isaan wajjin jira.
“Palibe kuwukira kulikonse kumene wakuona mwa Yakobo, sanaone chovuta mu Israeli. Yehova Mulungu wawo ali nawo: mfuwu wa mfumu uli pakati pawo.
22 Waaqayyo biyya Gibxiitii isaan baase; inni jabina akka jabina gafarsaa qaba.
Mulungu wowatulutsa mʼdziko la Igupto, ali ndi mphamvu ngati za njati.
23 Yaaqoob irratti falfalli tokko iyyuu hin hojjetu; Israaʼel irrattis tolchi tokko iyyuu hin hojjetu. Amma Yaaqoobii fi Israaʼeliin, ‘Waan Waaqni hojjete ilaalaa!’ jedhama.
Palibe matsenga amene angalimbane ndi Yakobo, palibe mawula amene angalimbane ndi Israeli. Tsopano za Yakobo ndi Israeli adzanena kuti, ‘Onani zimene Mulungu wachita!’
24 Kunoo sabni sun akka leenca dhalaatti kaʼa; akkuma leencaattis ol jedha; inni hamma waan adamsate nyaatee fixutti, hamma dhiiga waan ajjeefate sanaa dhuguttis hin ciisu.”
Taonani, anthu anyamuka ngati mkango waukazi; adzuka okha ngati mkango waumuna umene supuma mpaka utadya nyama imene wagwira ndi kumwa magazi a nyama yogwidwayo.”
25 Baalaaq Balaʼaamiin, “Ati gonkumaa isaan hin abaarin yookaan isaan hin eebbisin” jedhe.
Ndipo Balaki anati kwa Balaamu, “Usawatemberere ndi pangʼono pomwe kapena kuwadalitsa!
26 Balaʼaamis, “Ani akka waan Waaqayyo jedhu kam iyyuu hojjedhu sitti hin himnee?” jedhee Baalaaqiif deebise.
“Balaamu anayankha Balaki kuti, ‘Kodi sindinakuwuzeni kuti ndiyenera kuchita zimene Yehova wanena?’”
27 Ergasii Baalaaq Balaʼaamiin, “Mee kottu amma illee ani iddoo biraa sin geessaa. Tarii achii jara naaf abaaruun kee Waaqa gammachiisa taʼaatii” jedhe.
Kenaka Balaki anati kwa Balaamu, “Bwera ndikutengere ku malo ena. Mwina chidzamukondweretsa Mulungu kuti uwatemberere kumeneko mʼmalo mwanga.”
28 Baalaaqis Balaʼaamin fiixee tulluu Pheʼoor kan irra dhaabatanii gammoojjii sana gad ilaalanitti ol baase.
Ndipo Balaki anamutengera Balaamu pamwamba pa Peori, poyangʼanana ndi chipululu.
29 Balaʼaamis Baalaaqiin, “Iddoo aarsaa torba asitti naaf ijaari; ammas korommii loonii torbaa fi korbeeyyii hoolaa torba naaf qopheessi” jedhe.
Balaamu anati kwa Balaki, “Mundimangire maguwa ansembe asanu ndi awiri pano ndipo mundikonzere ngʼombe zazimuna zisanu ndi ziwiri, nkhosa zazimuna zisanu ndi ziwiri.”
30 Baalaaqis akkuma Balaʼaam jedheen sana godhe; tokkoo tokkoo iddoo aarsaa irrattis korma loonii tokkoo fi korbeessa hoolaa tokko aarsaa dhiʼeesse.
Balaki anachita monga Balaamu ananenera ndipo anapereka nsembe ngʼombe imodzi yayimuna ndi nkhosa imodzi yayimuna pa guwa lililonse.
