1 Zvino Bharamu akati aona kuti zvinofadza Jehovha kuti aropafadze Israeri, haana kuzoita zvouroyi sepane dzimwe nguva, asi akaringisa chiso chake kurenje.
Afei, Balaam huu sɛ ɛsɔ Awurade ani sɛ ohyira Israel no, wankɔ abisa sɛnea ɔtaa yɛ no; mmom, ɔtoo nʼani hwɛɛ sare no so.
2 Bharamu akati atarisa kunze akaona vaIsraeri vagere pamusasa, rudzi norudzi, Mweya waMwari wakauya pamusoro pake
Bere a Balaam huu sɛ Israelfo no abobɔ wɔn atenae sɛnea wɔn mmusuakuw te no, Onyankopɔn honhom baa ne so,
3 uye akataura chirevo chake achiti: “Chirevo chaBharamu mwanakomana waBheori, chirevo chaiye ana meso anonyatsoona,
na eyi ne nkɔmhyɛ a ɔmae: “Beor ba Balaam nkɔmhyɛ, nkɔmhyɛ a efi obi a nʼani hu ade yiye,
4 chirevo chaiye anonzwa mashoko aMwari, anoona chiratidzo chinobva kuna Wamasimba Ose, anowira pasi nedumbu rake, uye ana meso akasvinura.
nea ɔte Onyankopɔn nsɛm nkɔmhyɛ; nea onya anisoadehu a efi Otumfo no hɔ; na ɔda fam, a nʼani hu ade:
5 “Matende ako akanaka seiko, iwe Jakobho, nougaro hwako, iwe Israeri!
“Yakob, mo ntamadan yɛ fɛ, Israel, mo atenae yɛ ahomeka!
6 “Semipata, vakaita fararira, samapindu pedyo norwizi, segavakava rakasimwa naJehovha, s semisidhari pedyo nemvura.
“Ɛtrɛtrɛw sɛ abon, sɛ nturo a ɛwɔ asubɔnten ho. Wɔte sɛ pɛprɛ a Awurade adua, te sɛ sida a esisi nsu ho.
7 Mvura ichayerera ichibva muzvirongo zvavo; mbeu dzavo dzichawana mvura yakawanda. “Mambo wavo achava mukuru kupinda Agagi; umambo hwavo huchasimudzirwa.
Nsu bɛsen afi wɔn ahina mu. Wɔn aba benya nsu ama aboro so. “Wɔn hene bɛyɛ kɛse asen Agag; wɔn ahenni bɛkorɔn.
8 “Mwari akavabudisa muIjipiti; vane simba renyati. Vanomedza ndudzi dzine hasha uye vanovhuna-vhuna mapfupa adzo; Vanovabaya nemiseve yavo.
“Onyankopɔn de wɔn fii Misraim na ɛbae; wɔwɔ ahoɔden sɛ wuram nantwi. Wɔsɛe atirimɔdenfo aman na wobubu wɔn nnompe mu asinasin, wɔde wɔn bɛmma wowɔ wɔn.
9 Seshumba vanoti vhumba vagovata pasi, seshumbakadzi, ndianiko angashinga kuvamutsa? “Vose vanokuropafadza, ngavaropafadzwe uye vose vanokutuka, ngavatukwe!”
Wobutuw da sɛ gyata; te sɛ gyatabere, hena na obetumi agyigye wɔn? “Wobehyira wɔn a wohyira wo, na wɔbɛdome wɔn a wɔdome wo.”
10 Ipapo kutsamwa kwaBharaki kwakapfuta pamusoro paBharamu. Akarova maoko ake pamwe chete akati kwaari, “Ndakakudanira kuzotuka vavengi vangu, asi wavaropafadza katatu kose aka.
Balak bo fuw Balaam. Ɔbɔɔ ne nsam guu ne so kae se, “Mefrɛɛ wo se bɛdome mʼatamfo, nanso woahyira wɔn mprɛnsa yi nyinaa.
11 Zvino chibva izvozvi uende kwako! Ndakati ndichakupa mubayiro wakaisvonaka, asi Jehovha akudzivisa kuti upiwe mubayiro.”
Fi ha kɔ wo nkyi ntɛm! Mekae se mɛkyɛ wo ade a ɛsom bo nanso, Awurade amma woannya akyɛde no.”
12 Bharamu akapindura Bharaki akati, “Ko, handina kutaurira nhume dzawakatuma kwandiri here kuti,
Balaam buaa no se, “So manka ankyerɛ abɔfo a wosomaa wɔn baa me nkyɛn no se,
13 ‘Kunyange dai Bharaki andipa muzinda wake wakazara nesirivha negoridhe, handaigona kuita chinhu nokuda kwangu, chakanaka kana chakaipa, kuti ndidarike murayiro waJehovha, uye kuti ndinofanira kutaura chete zvinenge zvataurwa naJehovha here’?
‘Sɛ Balak ma me dwetɛ ne sikakɔkɔɔ a ɛwɔ nʼahemfi hɔ nyinaa koraa a, minni tumi sɛ mɛyɛ biribi atia Awurade ahyɛde, sɛ ɛyɛ papa anaa bɔne.’ Mmom nea Awurade aka no nko ara na ɛsɛ sɛ meka.
14 Zvino ndava kudzokera kuvanhu vokwangu, asi uya ndikuyambire zvichaitirwa vanhu vako navanhu ava pamazuva anouya.”
Afei, meresan akɔ me nkurɔfo nkyɛn. Nanso ma menka nea Israelfo no bɛyɛ wo nkurɔfo no daakye no nkyerɛ wo.”
15 Ipapo akataura chirevo chake akati: “Chirevo chaBharamu mwanakomana waBheori, chirevo chaiye anoona zvakajeka,
Eyi ne nkɔmhyɛ a Balaam de mae: “Beor ba Balaam nkɔmhyɛ, nkɔmhyɛ a efi ɔbarima a nʼani hu ade yiye,
16 chirevo chaiye anonzwa mashoko aMwari, ano ruzivo runobva kuno Wokumusoro-soro, anoona chiratidzo chinobva kuna Wamasimba Ose, anowira pasi nedumbu rake, uye ana meso akasvinura:
nea ɔte Onyankopɔn nsɛm no nkɔmhyɛ, nea ɔwɔ nimdeɛ a efi Ɔsorosoroni no hɔ, nea onya anisoadehu a efi Otumfo no hɔ, na ɔda fam, a nʼani hu ade no:
17 “Ndiri kumuoona, asi kwete iye zvino; ndinomuona, asi haasi pedyo. Nyeredzi ichabuda muna Jakobho; Tsvimbo youshe ichamera kubva muna Israeri. Achapwanya huma dzavaMoabhu, madehenya avanakomana vose vaSeti.
“Mihu no, nanso ɛnyɛ mprempren; mehwɛ no, nanso ɔmmɛn. Nsoromma bepue afi Yakob mu; ahempema bepue afi Israel mu. Ɔbɛdwerɛw Moabfo ti, Moabfo nyinaa tikora.
18 Edhomu achakundwa; Seiri, muvengi wake, achakundwa, asi Israeri achasimba.
Wɔbɛfa Edom, na Seir a ɔyɛ ne tamfo no, wobedi ne so nkonim, na Israel bɛkɔ so ayɛ den.
19 Mutongi achabuda muna Jakobho uye achaparadza vakasara veguta.”
Ɔhene bi bɛsɔre wɔ Yakob mu ɔno na ɔbɛsɛe kurow no mu nkaefo.”
20 Ipapo Bharamu akaona Amareki uye akataura chirevo chake achiti: “Amareki akanga ari wokutanga pakati pendudzi, asi pakupedzisira achaparadzwa.”
Afei, Balaam hwɛɛ Amalekfo na ɔhyɛɛ nkɔm: “Amalek na na ɔyɛ aman nyinaa abakan, nanso nʼawiei bɛyɛ ɔsɛe pasaa.”
21 Ipapo akaona vaKeni uye akataura chirevo chake achiti: “Ugaro hwako hwakachengetedzeka, dendere rako rakavakwa padombo;
Afei, ohuu Kenifo, na ɔhyɛɛ ne nkɔm: “Mo atenae wɔ bammɔ, wɔanwen mo berebuw wɔ abotan mu;
22 asi imi vaKeni muchaparadzwa, Ashuri paachakutapai.”
Nanso wɔbɛsɛe mo Kenifo bere a Asur fa mo nnommum no.”
23 Ipapo akataura chirevo chake akati: “Haiwa, ndianiko angararama kana Mwari akaita izvi?
Afei ɔhyɛɛ ne nkɔm: “Aa! Sɛ Onyankopɔn yɛ sɛɛ a, hena na ɔbɛtena nkwa mu?
24 Zvikepe zvichauya zvichibva kumahombekombe eKitimu; zvichakunda Ashuri neEbheri, asi naizvowo zvichaparadzwa.”
Ahyɛn befi Kipro mpoano aba; wobedi Eber ne Asur so. Nanso wɔn nso, wɔbɛsɛe wɔn pasaa.”
25 Ipapo Bharamu akasimuka akadzokera kunyika yake, uye Bharaki akaenda kwakewo.
Afei, Balaam sɔree na ɔsan kɔɔ ne kurom, na Balak nso kɔɔ ne kwan.
