1 Bharamu akati, “Ndivakirei aritari nomwe pano, mugondigadzirira hando nomwe namakondobwe manomwe.”
Balaam ka kyerɛɛ ɔhene no se, “Si afɔremuka ason wɔ ha, na siesie anantwinini ason ne adwennini ason ma me.”
2 Bharaki akaita sezvakataurwa naBharamu, uye vose vari vaviri vakabayira hando negondobwe paaritari imwe neimwe.
Balak yɛɛ sɛnea Balaam kae no, na wɔn baanu no de nantwinini ne odwennini bɔɔ afɔremuka no biara so afɔre.
3 Ipapo Bharamu akati kuna Bharaki, “Gara pano parutivi pechipiriso chako, ini ndimbotsaukira parutivi apa. Zvichida Jehovha angauya kuzosangana neni. Zvose zvaanondiratidza, ndichazokuudza.” Ipapo akabva akaenda pakakwirira, pakanga pasina chinhu.
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.
4 Mwari akasangana naye, Bharamu akati, “Ndagadzira aritari nomwe uye paaritari imwe neimwe ndabayira hando negondobwe.”
Ɛhɔ na Onyankopɔn hyiaa no ma ɔkae se, “Masiesie afɔremuka ason, na mede nantwinini ne odwennini abɔ afɔre wɔ biara so.”
5 Jehovha akaisa shoko mumuromo waBharamu akati, “Dzokera kuna Bharaki utaure kwaari shoko iri.”
Awurade de asɛm hyɛɛ Balaam anom se, “San kɔ Balak nkyɛn na kɔka asɛm yi kyerɛ no.”
6 Saka akadzokera kwaari akamuwana amire parutivi rwechipiriso chake, ana machinda ose eMoabhu.
Ɔsan bae no ɔbɛtoo no sɛ ɔne Moab mpanyimfo no nyinaa gyinagyina afɔre no ho.
7 Ipapo Bharamu akataura chirevo chake akati: “Bharaki akanditora kubva kuAramu, iye mambo weMoabhu kubva kumakomo okumabvazuva. Akati, ‘Uya unditukirewo Jakobho; uya, utsoropodze Israeri.’
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 Ndingatuka seiko avo vasina kutukwa naMwari? Ndingatsoropodza seiko avo vasina kutsoropodzwa naJehovha?
Ɛbɛyɛ dɛn na matumi adome wɔn a Onyankopɔn nnome ɛ? Ɛbɛyɛ dɛn na matumi aka mmususɛm agu wɔn a Awurade mmuu wɔn fɔ so?
9 Ndiri pamusoro pamatombo, ndinovaona, ndiri pakakwirira, ndinovaona. Ndinoona vanhu vanogara vari voga uye havazviverengi pakati pendudzi.
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 Ndianiko angaverenga guruva raJakobho kana kuverenga chikamu chechina chaIsraeri? Regai ndife rufu rwowakarurama, uye kuguma kwangu ngakuve sokwavo!”
Hena na obetumi akan Yakob mfutuma, anaa ɔbɛkan Israelfo nkyemu anan mu baako? Ma minwu atreneefo wu, na mʼawiei nyɛ sɛ wɔn de.”
11 Bharaki akati kuna Bharamu, “Waiteiko kwandiri? Ndakakutora kuti uzotuka vavengi vangu, asi hauna chinhu chawaita asi kutovaropafadza!”
Balak bisaa Balaam se, “Dɛn na woayɛ me yi? Mede wo baa sɛ bɛdome mʼatamfo, nanso woahyira wɔn mmom!”
12 Iye akapindura akati, “Ko, handifaniri kuti nditaure zvaiswa mumuromo mangu naJehovha here?”
Obuae se, “So ɛnsɛ sɛ meka nea Awurade de ahyɛ mʼano no ana?”
13 Ipapo Bharaki akati kwaari, “Uya uende neni kune imwe nzvimbo yaunogona kuvaona; uchangoona chikamu chavo asi kwete vose. Uye uri ipapo ugonditukira vanhu ava.”
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.”
14 Saka akamutora akaenda naye kumunda waZofimi pamusoro pePisiga, uye akavaka aritari nomwe ipapo akabayira hando negondobwe paaritari imwe neimwe.
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 Bharamu akati kuna Bharaki, “Gara pano iwe parutivi rwechipiriso chako ini ndichindosangana naye uko.”
Balaam ka kyerɛɛ Balak se, “Tena wʼafɔre no ho wɔ ha na me nso merekohyia Awuradewɔ hɔ.”
16 Jehovha akasangana naBharamu akaisa shoko mumuromo make akati, “Dzokera kuna Bharaki undotaura mashoko aya.”
Awurade hyiaa Balaam na ɔde asɛm hyɛɛ nʼanom se, “San kɔ Balak hɔ na kɔka asɛm yi kyerɛ no.”
17 Saka akadzokera kwaari akamuwana amire parutivi rwechipiriso chake, ana machinda eMoabhu. Bharaki akamubvunza akati, “Jehovha ati kudiniko?”
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 Ipapo akataura chirevo chake akati: “Simuka, Bharaki, uye uteerere; ndinzwe, iwe mwanakomana waZipori.
Na ɔhyɛɛ ne nkɔm: “Balak, sɔre na tie; Sipor babarima tie me.
19 Mwari haasi munhu, kuti angareva nhema, uye mwanakomana womunhu kuti ashandure pfungwa dzake. Ko, anotaura akasazviita here? Anovimbisa akasazadzisa here?
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 Ndakagamuchira murayiro wokuti ndiropafadze; iye aropafadza, uye ini handigoni kuzvishandura.
Wɔahyɛ me sɛ minhyira; wahyira, na merentumi nnan ani!
21 “Haana kuona chakaipa kuna Jakobho, hapana chakashata chakaonekwa muIsraeri. Jehovha Mwari wavo anavo; kudanidzira kwaMambo kuri pakati pavo.
“Wonhu ɔyawdi bi wɔ Yakob mu, wonhuu awerɛhowdi biara wɔ Israel mu. Awurade, wɔn Nyankopɔn ka wɔn ho; Ɔhene ka wɔn ho!
22 Mwari akavabudisa muIjipiti; vane simba renyati.
Onyankopɔn yii wɔn fii Misraim; ɔte sɛ nantwi hoɔdenfo ma wɔn.
23 Hapana unʼanga hungarwa naJakobho, hapana kuvuka kunorwa naIsraeri. Zvino zvichanzi pamusoro paJakobho, napamusoro paIsraeri, ‘Tarirai zvaitwa naMwari!’
Nnome biara mmaa Yakob so ɛ, mmusu biara nni Israel so. Afei, wɔbɛka afa Yakob ne Israel ho se, ‘Hwɛ nea Onyankopɔn ayɛ!’
24 Vanhu vanosimuka seshumba hadzi; vanozvisimudza seshumba isingazorori kusvikira yadya chayauraya uye igonwa ropa rezvayabata.”
Nnipa no sɔre sɛ gyatabere. Wɔwosow wɔn ho sɛ gyata a onnye nʼahome de kosi sɛ ɔbɛtetew nea wakyere no no nam pasaa na ɔnom nea wakyere no no mogya.”
25 Ipapo Bharaki akati kuna Bharamu, “Usatombovatuka kana kuvaropafadza napaduku!”
Na Balak ka kyerɛɛ Balaam se, “Sɛ worennome wɔn a, ɛno de nhyira wɔn koraa.”
26 Asi Bharamu akapindura akati, “Handina kukuudza here kuti ndinofanira kuita zvose zvinotaurwa naJehovha?”
Balaam buaa no se, “Manka ankyerɛ wo se nea Awurade bɛka biara na mɛyɛ ana?”
27 Ipapo Bharaki akati kuna Bharamu, “Uya, ndiende newe kune imwe nzvimbo. Zvimwe Mwari achafara nazvo kuti unditukire vanhu ava ikoko.”
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 Saka Bharaki akatora Bharamu akakwira naye pamusoro pePeori pakatarisana nerenje.
Na Balak faa Balaam de no kɔɔ bepɔw Peor a ani kyerɛ nweatam no atifi pɛɛ no so.
29 Bharamu akati, “Ndivakire aritari nomwe pano, ugogadzira hando nomwe namakondobwe manomwe.”
Bio, Balaam kae se, “Si afɔremuka ason na siesie anantwinini ason ne adwennini ason ma me.”
30 Bharaki akaita sezvakanga zvataurwa naBharamu, akabayira hando negondobwe paaritari imwe neimwe.
Balak yɛɛ nea Balaam kae no, enti ɔde nantwinini ne odwennini bɔɔ afɔre wɔ afɔremuka no biara so.
