Ka zo yanzu ka la’anta waɗannan mutane, domin sun fi ƙarfina. Wataƙila zan iya cin nasara a kansu, in kuma kore su daga ƙasar. Gama na sani duk waɗanda ka sa musu albarka, sun zama masu albarka ke nan, waɗanda kuma ka la’anta, sun la’antu ke nan.”
7 Vakuru veMoabhu neveMidhiani vakabva, vakatora mari yokuripa kuvuka. Vakati vasvika kuna Bharamu vakamuudza zvakanga zvarehwa naBharaki.
Sai dattawan Mowab da na Midiyawa suka tashi, suka ɗauki kuɗi don duba. Da suka zo wurin Bala’am sai suka faɗa masa abin da Balak ya ce.
8 Bharamu akati kwavari, “Chivatai pano, ndichauya nemhinduro yandichapiwa naJehovha.” Saka machinda eMoabhu akagara naye.

9 Mwari akauya kuna Bharamu akamubvunza akati, “Vanhu vaunavo ndivanaaniko?”
Sai Allah ya zo wurin Bala’am ya ce, “Su wane ne waɗannan tare da kai?”
10 Bharamu akati kuna Mwari, “Bharaki mwanakomana waZipori, mambo weMoabhu, akanditumira nhume idzi achiti, ‘Vanhu vakabuda kubva kuIjipiti vakazadza nyika yose.
Bala’am ya ce wa Allah, “Balak ɗan Ziffor, sarkin Mowab ne, ya aiko mini wannan saƙo cewa,
11 Zvino uya unditukire vanhu ava. Zvichida izvozvi ndingagona kurwa navo ndikavadzingira kure.’”
‘Ga mutane sun fito daga Masar sun mamaye ƙasar. Ka zo yanzu ka la’anta mini su. Wataƙila ta haka zan yi nasara a kansu, in kuma kore su.’”
12 Asi Mwari akati kuna Bharamu, “Usaenda navo. Haufaniri kutuka vanhu avo, nokuti vakaropafadzwa.”
Amma Allah ya ce wa Bala’am, “Kada ka tafi tare da su. Kada ka la’anta mutanen nan, gama su masu albarka ne.”
13 Fume mangwana, Bharamu akamuka akati kumachinda aBharaki, “Dzokerai kunyika yokwenyu, nokuti Jehovha aramba kuti ndiende nemi.”
Kashegari Bala’am ya tashi ya ce wa dattawan Balak, “Ku koma ƙasarku, domin Ubangiji ya hana ni in tafi tare da ku.”
14 Saka machinda eMoabhu akadzokera kuna Bharaki akati, “Bharamu akaramba kuuya nesu.”
Saboda haka dattawan Mowab suka koma wurin Balak suka ce, “Bala’am ya ƙi yă zo tare da mu.”
15 Ipapo Bharaki akatumazve mamwe machinda, akawanda chose uye aikudzwa kupinda vokutanga.
Sai Balak ya aika waɗansu dattawa masu yawa, masu daraja kuma fiye da na dā.
16 Vakasvika kuna Bharamu vakati: “Zvanzi naBharaki mwanakomana waZipori: Usatendera chimwe chinhu kukukonesa kuuya kwandiri,
Suka zo wurin Bala’am suka ce, “Ga abin da Balak ɗan Ziffor ya ce, Kada ka bar wani abu yă hana ka zuwa wurina,
17 nokuti ndichakupa mubayiro wakanaka kwazvo uye ndichaita zvose zvaunoreva. Uya unditukire vanhu ava.”
gama zan ba ka lada mai yawa in kuma yi duk abin da ka ce. Ka zo ka la’anta mini waɗannan mutane.”
18 Asi Bharamu akavapindura akati, “Kunyange dai Bharaki akandipa muzinda wake uzere nesirivha negoridhe, handingagoni kuita chimwe chinhu chikuru kana chiduku kuti tiite zvinodarika murayiro waJehovha Mwari wangu.
Amma Bala’am ya amsa musu ya ce, “Ko da a ce Balak zai ba ni gidansa cike da azurfa da zinariya, ba zan yi wani abu ko kaɗan saɓanin umarnin Ubangiji Allahna ba.
19 Zvino chivatai pano manheru ano sezvakaita vamwe, ini ndichanzwa kana Jehovha ane zvimwe zvaangandiudza.”
To, fa, sai ku kwana a nan kamar yadda waɗancan suka yi, ni kuma in roƙi Ubangiji, in ji, wace magana zai ce mini.”
20 Usiku ihwohwo Mwari akauya kuna Bharamu akati kwaari, “Sezvo vanhu ava vauya kuzokudana, enda hako navo, asi uite chete zvandinokuudza.”
A wannan dare, Allah ya zo wurin Bala’am ya ce, “Da yake waɗannan mutane sun zo su tafi da kai, to, ka tafi tare da su, sai dai ka yi abin da na ce ka yi ne kaɗai.”
21 Bharamu akamuka mangwanani, akaisa chigaro pambongoro yake akaenda namachinda eMoabhu.
Bala’am ya tashi da safe, ya ɗaura wa jakarsa sirdi, ya tafi tare da dattawan Mowab.
22 Asi Mwari akamutsamwira zvikuru paakaenda, uye mutumwa waJehovha akamira munzira kuti amukonese. Bharamu akanga akatasva mbongoro yake, uye varanda vake vaviri vaiva naye.
Amma Allah ya husata sa’ad da ya tafi, mala’ikan Ubangiji kuwa ya tsaya a hanya don yă hana shi. Bala’am kuwa yana kan jakarsa tare da bayinsa biyu.
23 Mbongoro yakati ichiona mutumwa waJehovha amire munzira ane munondo wakavhomorwa muruoko rwake, yakabuda munzira ikapinda mumunda. Bharamu akairova kuti idzokere munzira.
Da jakar ta hangi mala’ikan Ubangiji tsaye a hanya da takobi a hannunsa, sai ta kauce daga hanya, ta shiga jeji. Bala’am kuwa ya buge ta don tă koma hanya.
24 Ipapo mutumwa waJehovha akamira pakamanikana pakati peminda miviri yemizambiringa, paiva namasvingo kumativi ose.
Sai mala’ikan Ubangiji ya tsaya a wata matsattsiyar hanya tsakanin gonaki inabi biyu, da bango a kowane gefe.
25 Mbongoro yakati ichiona mutumwa waJehovha, yakazvimanikidzira kurusvingo ikatsimbirira rutsoka rwaBharamu parwuri. Saka akapamhazve kuirova.
Sa’ad da jakar ta ga mala’ikan Ubangiji, sai ta matse a jikin bango, ta goge ƙafar Bala’am da bangon. Saboda haka sai Bala’am ya sāke bugunta.
26 Ipapo mutumwa waJehovha akapfuurira mberi akandomira panzvimbo yakamanikana pakanga pasina mukana wokutendeukira kurudyi kana kuruboshwe.
Sai mala’ikan Ubangiji ya sha gabansa, ya tsaya a ƙunƙuntaccen wuri inda ba wurin juyawa dama ko hagu.
27 Mbongoro yakati ichiona mutumwa waJehovha, yakavata pasi paBharamu, iye akatsamwa zvikuru akairova netsvimbo yake.
Da jakar ta ga mala’ikan Ubangiji, sai ta kwanta a ƙasa, Bala’am kuwa ya husata, sai ya buge ta da sandansa.
28 Ipapo Jehovha akashamisa muromo wembongoro, ikati kuna Bharamu, “Ndaiteiko kwamuri zvaita kuti mundirove katatu kose aka?”
Ubangiji ya buɗe bakin jakar, sai jakar ta ce wa Bala’am, “Me na yi maka da ka buge ni har sau uku?”
29 Bharamu akapindura mbongoro akati, “Wandiita benzi iwe! Dai ndanga ndiine munondo muruoko rwangu ndingadai ndakuuraya izvozvi.”
Bala’am ya ce wa jakar “Domin kin wulaƙanta ni! Da a ce ina da takobi a hannuna da zan kashe ki nan take.”
30 Mbongoro yakati kuna Bharamu, “Ko, handisi mbongoro yenyu, yamunogara muchitasva kusvikira zuva rino here? Ko, ndinogara ndichikuitirai zvakadai here?” Iye akati, “Kwete.”
Jakar ta ce wa Bala’am, “Ni ba jakarka ba ce wadda kake hawa kullum, har yă zuwa yau? Na taɓa yin maka haka?” Bala’am ya ce, “A’a.”
31 Ipapo Jehovha akasvinudza meso aBharamu, iye akaona mutumwa waJehovha amire munzira ane munondo wake wakavhomorwa. Saka akakotama akawira pasi nechiso chake.
Sa’an nan Ubangiji ya buɗe idanun Bala’am, ya kuwa ga mala’ikan Ubangiji tsaye a hanya da takobi a zāre. Sai ya sunkuyar da kansa, ya fāɗi rubda ciki.
32 Mutumwa waJehovha akamubvunza achiti, “Warovereiko mbongoro yako rutatu rwose urwu? Ini ndauya pano kuzokudzivisa nokuti nzira yako haina kururama kwandiri.
Sa’an nan mala’ikan Ubangiji ya tambaye shi, “Don me ka buge jakarka har sau uku? Na fito ne don in hana ka, gama hanyarka ba daidai ba ce a gabana.
33 Mbongoro yandiona ikatsauka ichibva pandiri katatu aka kose. Dai isina kutsauka, zvirokwazvo ndingadai ndakuuraya izvozvi, asi iyo ndairaramisa.”
Jakar ta gan ni, ta kauce mini har sau uku. Da a ce ba tă kauce ba, lalle da na kashe ka, in kuwa bar ta da rai.”
34 Bharamu akati kumutumwa waJehovha, “Ndatadza. Handina kuziva kuti manga mumire munzira kuti mundidzivise. Zvino kana musingafari, ndodzokera hangu.”
Bala’am ya ce wa mala’ikan Ubangiji, “Na yi zunubi. Ban san ka tsaya a hanya don ka hana ni ba. Yanzu in ba ka ji daɗin tafiyata, sai in koma.”
35 Mutumwa waJehovha akati kuna Bharamu, “Chienda hako navarume ava, asi utaure zvandinokuudza zvoga.” Saka Bharamu akaenda namachinda aBharaki.
Mala’ikan Ubangiji ya ce wa Bala’am, “Ka tafi tare da mutanen, amma abin da na faɗa maka ne kaɗai za ka faɗa.” Saboda haka Bala’am ya tafi tare da dattawan Balak.
36 Bharaki akati anzwa kuti Bharamu akanga achiuya, akabuda kuti andosangana naye paguta ravaMoabhu pamuganhu weAnoni, kumagumo kwenyika yake.
Da Balak ya ji cewa Bala’am yana zuwa, sai ya fito, ya tarye shi a garin Mowabawa da suke a iyakar Arnon, a ƙarshen yankinsa.
37 Bharaki akati kuna Bharamu, “Handina kukudana nokukurumidza here? Seiko usina kuuya kwandiri? Ini handigoni kukupa mubayiro here?”
Balak ya ce wa Bala’am, “Ban aika maka saƙo cikin gagawa ba? Me ya sa ba ka zo ba? Ko ban isa in sāka maka ba ne?”
38 Bharamu akapindura akati, “Zvakanaka, zvino ndauya kwauri. Asi ndingataura zvose zvose here? Ndinofanira kungotaura chete zvinenge zvaiswa mumuromo mangu naMwari.”
Bala’am ya amsa ya ce, “To, ai, ga shi, na zo yanzu. Ina da wani ikon yin wata magana ne? Dole in faɗa abin da Allah ya ce in faɗa ne kawai.”
39 Ipapo Bharamu akaenda naBharaki kuKiriati Huzoti.
Sa’an nan Bala’am ya tafi tare da Balak zuwa Kiriyat-Huzot,
40 Bharaki akabayira mombe namakwai, akapa zvimwe kuna Bharamu namachinda akanga anaye.
a can ya yi hadaya da shanu da tumaki, ya kuwa aika wa Bala’am da dattawan da suke tare da shi.
41 Fume mangwana, Bharaki akatora Bharamu akakwidza naye kuBhamoti Bhaari, uye ikoko akaona chikamu chavanhu.
Kashegari, Balak ya ɗauki Bala’am ya kai shi kan Bamot Ba’al, daga can ya iya ganin sassan sansanin Isra’ilawa.
