Balaam ka kyerɛɛ ɔhene no se, “Si afɔremuka ason wɔ ha, na siesie anantwinini ason ne adwennini ason ma me.”
2 Baalaaqis akkuma Balaʼaam jedhe sana godhe; isaan lamaan tokkoo tokkoo iddoo aarsaa irratti korma looniitii fi korbeessa hoolaa tokko tokko aarsaa dhiʼeessan.
Balak yɛɛ sɛnea Balaam kae no, na wɔn baanu no de nantwinini ne odwennini bɔɔ afɔremuka no biara so afɔre.
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.
Afei Balaam ka kyerɛɛ Balak se, “Tena wʼafɔre no ho na merekɔ nkyɛn. Ebia na Awurade bɛba abehyia me, na nea ɔbɛda no adi akyerɛ me biara no mɛka akyerɛ wo.” Enti, ɔforo kɔɔ sorosoro baabi a ɛhɔ yɛ petee.

Ɛhɔ na Onyankopɔn hyiaa no ma ɔkae se, “Masiesie afɔremuka ason, na mede nantwinini ne odwennini abɔ afɔre wɔ biara so.”
5 Waaqayyo ergaa tokko afaan Balaʼaam keessa kaaʼee, “Baalaaqitti deebiʼiitii ergaa kana itti himi” jedheen.
Awurade de asɛm hyɛɛ Balaam anom se, “San kɔ Balak nkyɛn na kɔka asɛm yi kyerɛ no.”
6 Balaʼaam Baalaaqitti deebiʼee isaa qondaaltota Moʼaab wajjin aarsaa isaa bira dhaabatu arge.
Ɔsan bae no ɔbɛtoo no sɛ ɔne Moab mpanyimfo no nyinaa gyinagyina afɔre no ho.
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.
Na Balaam hyɛɛ ne nkɔm: “Balak soma bɛfrɛɛ me fii Aram, Moabhene frɛɛ me fii apuei fam nkoko so. Ɔkae se, ‘Bra bɛdome Yakob ma me; bra bɛka mmususɛm gu Israel so.’
8 Ani akkamittan warra Waaqni hin abaarin abaaruu dandaʼa? Ani akkamittan warra Waaqayyo hin balaaleffatin balaaleffachuu dandaʼa?

Mihu wɔn fi ɔbotan atifi; mehwɛ wɔn fi nkoko so. Mihu nnipa a wɔatew wɔn ho a wommu wɔn ho sɛ wɔyɛ aman no bi mu nnipa.
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!”
Hena na obetumi akan Yakob mfutuma, anaa ɔbɛkan Israelfo nkyemu anan mu baako? Ma minwu atreneefo wu, na mʼawiei nyɛ sɛ wɔn de.”
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.
Balak bisaa Balaam se, “Dɛn na woayɛ me yi? Mede wo baa sɛ bɛdome mʼatamfo, nanso woahyira wɔn mmom!”
12 Innis, “Ani waan Waaqayyo afaan koo keessa kaaʼu hin dubbadhuu?” jedhee deebii kenneef.
Obuae se, “So ɛnsɛ sɛ meka nea Awurade de ahyɛ mʼano no ana?”
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.
Afei, Balak ka kyerɛɛ no se, “Bra na yɛnkɔ baabi foforo a yebehu wɔn; worenhu wɔn nyinaa, gye wɔn atenae no nkyɛn nkyɛn. Gyina hɔ na dome wɔn ma me.”

Enti ɔde no kɔɔ Sofim bepɔw Pisga atifi. Osii afɔremuka ason wɔ hɔ na ɔde nantwinini ne odwennini bɔɔ afɔre afɔre wɔ afɔremuka biara so.
15 Balaʼaamis Baalaaqiin, “Ati hamma ani achi siqee Waaqa wajjin wal argutti asuma aarsaa kee bira turi” jedhe.
Balaam ka kyerɛɛ Balak se, “Tena wʼafɔre no ho wɔ ha na me nso merekohyia Awuradewɔ hɔ.”
16 Waaqayyo Balaʼaam wajjin wal argee ergaa tokko afaan isaa keessa kaaʼee, “Baalaaqitti deebiʼiitii ergaa kana itti himi” jedheen.
Awurade hyiaa Balaam na ɔde asɛm hyɛɛ nʼanom se, “San kɔ Balak hɔ na kɔka asɛm yi kyerɛ no.”
17 Balaʼaam Baalaaq bira dhaqee isaa qondaaltota Moʼaab wajjin aarsaa isaa bira dhaabatu arge. Baalaaqis, “Waaqayyo maal jedhe?” jedhee Balaʼaamiin gaafate.
Enti ɔsan ba bɛtoo no no sɛ ogyina nʼafɔre no ho a Moab mpanyimfo no ka ne ho. Balak bisae se, “Awurade aka dɛn?”
18 Balaʼaam akkana jedhee ergaa isaa dubbate: “Yaa Baalaaq, kaʼiitii dhaggeeffadhu; yaa ilma Ziphoori na dhagaʼi.
Na ɔhyɛɛ ne nkɔm: “Balak, sɔre na tie; Sipor babarima tie me.
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?
Onyankopɔn nyɛ onipa na wadi atoro; Ɔnyɛ onipa na wasesa nʼadwene. Ɔka asɛm a ɔnyɛ ana? Wahyɛ bɔ bi pɛn a wanni so ana?
20 Kunoo ani eebbisuudhaaf ajaja argadheera; inni eebbiseera; anis geeddaruu hin dandaʼu.

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.
“Wonhu ɔyawdi bi wɔ Yakob mu, wonhuu awerɛhowdi biara wɔ Israel mu. Awurade, wɔn Nyankopɔn ka wɔn ho; Ɔhene ka wɔn ho!
22 Waaqayyo biyya Gibxiitii isaan baase; inni jabina akka jabina gafarsaa qaba.

23 Yaaqoob irratti falfalli tokko iyyuu hin hojjetu; Israaʼel irrattis tolchi tokko iyyuu hin hojjetu. Amma Yaaqoobii fi Israaʼeliin, ‘Waan Waaqni hojjete ilaalaa!’ jedhama.
Nnome biara mmaa Yakob so ɛ, mmusu biara nni Israel so. Afei, wɔbɛka afa Yakob ne Israel ho se, ‘Hwɛ nea Onyankopɔn ayɛ!’
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.”

25 Baalaaq Balaʼaamiin, “Ati gonkumaa isaan hin abaarin yookaan isaan hin eebbisin” jedhe.
Na Balak ka kyerɛɛ Balaam se, “Sɛ worennome wɔn a, ɛno de nhyira wɔn koraa.”
26 Balaʼaamis, “Ani akka waan Waaqayyo jedhu kam iyyuu hojjedhu sitti hin himnee?” jedhee Baalaaqiif deebise.
Balaam buaa no se, “Manka ankyerɛ wo se nea Awurade bɛka biara na mɛyɛ ana?”
27 Ergasii Baalaaq Balaʼaamiin, “Mee kottu amma illee ani iddoo biraa sin geessaa. Tarii achii jara naaf abaaruun kee Waaqa gammachiisa taʼaatii” jedhe.
Afei, Balak ka kyerɛɛ Balaam se, “Bra mma memfa wo nkɔ baabi foforo. Ebia, ɛhɔ bɛyɛ anisɔ ama Onyankopɔn sɛ wubegyina hɔ adome wɔn.”
28 Baalaaqis Balaʼaamin fiixee tulluu Pheʼoor kan irra dhaabatanii gammoojjii sana gad ilaalanitti ol baase.

29 Balaʼaamis Baalaaqiin, “Iddoo aarsaa torba asitti naaf ijaari; ammas korommii loonii torbaa fi korbeeyyii hoolaa torba naaf qopheessi” jedhe.
Bio, Balaam kae se, “Si afɔremuka ason na siesie anantwinini ason ne adwennini ason ma me.”
30 Baalaaqis akkuma Balaʼaam jedheen sana godhe; tokkoo tokkoo iddoo aarsaa irrattis korma loonii tokkoo fi korbeessa hoolaa tokko aarsaa dhiʼeesse.
