1 Zvino Bharamu akati aona kuti zvinofadza Jehovha kuti aropafadze Israeri, haana kuzoita zvouroyi sepane dzimwe nguva, asi akaringisa chiso chake kurenje.
Afei, Balaam hunuu sɛ Awurade pɛ sɛ ɔhyira Israel. Yei enti, wankɔ abisa sɛdeɛ ɔtaa yɛ no. Na mmom, ɔtoo nʼani hwɛɛ ɛserɛ no so,

deɛ ɔte Onyankopɔn asɛm; deɛ ɔhunu anisoadeɛ a ɛfiri Otumfoɔ hɔ; na ɔda fam, a nʼani gu so:
5 “Matende ako akanaka seiko, iwe Jakobho, nougaro hwako, iwe Israeri!
“Ao Yakob, mo ntomadan yɛ fɛ, Ao Israel, mo afie yɛ ahomeka.
6 “Semipata, vakaita fararira, samapindu pedyo norwizi, segavakava rakasimwa naJehovha, s semisidhari pedyo nemvura.
“Ɛsam mʼanim te sɛ mmɛfuo, te sɛ nturo frɔmfrɔm wɔ asubɔnten ho. Wɔte sɛ pɛperɛ a Awurade adua, te sɛ ntweneduro a ɛbɛn nsuo ho.
7 Mvura ichayerera ichibva muzvirongo zvavo; mbeu dzavo dzichawana mvura yakawanda. “Mambo wavo achava mukuru kupinda Agagi; umambo hwavo huchasimudzirwa.
Wɔbɛnya nsuo bebree. Wɔn mma bɛnya deɛ ɛhia wɔn nyinaa. “Wɔn ɔhene bɛyɛ kɛse akyɛn Agag; wɔn ahennie bɛkorɔn.
8 “Mwari akavabudisa muIjipiti; vane simba renyati. Vanomedza ndudzi dzine hasha uye vanovhuna-vhuna mapfupa adzo; Vanovabaya nemiseve yavo.
“Onyankopɔn de wɔn firi Misraim aba; ɔtwee wɔn sɛ wiram nantwie. Ɔsɛe amanaman a wɔtia no nyinaa, ɔbubu wɔn nnompe mu asinasini, ɔto bɛmma wowɔ wɔn.
9 Seshumba vanoti vhumba vagovata pasi, seshumbakadzi, ndianiko angashinga kuvamutsa? “Vose vanokuropafadza, ngavaropafadzwe uye vose vanokutuka, ngavatukwe!”
Israel butu hɔ sɛ gyata; ɔte sɛ gyataburu, na hwan na ɔbɛtumi anyane no? “Ao Israel, nhyira nka obiara a ɔhyira wo, na nnome nka obiara a ɔdome wo.”
10 Ipapo kutsamwa kwaBharaki kwakapfuta pamusoro paBharamu. Akarova maoko ake pamwe chete akati kwaari, “Ndakakudanira kuzotuka vavengi vangu, asi wavaropafadza katatu kose aka.
Ɔhene Balak bo fuu Balaam. Ɔde Abufuo bɔɔ ne nsam guu ne so teaam sɛ, “Mefrɛɛ wo sɛ bɛdome, mʼatamfoɔ nanso woahyira wɔn mprɛnsa.
11 Zvino chibva izvozvi uende kwako! Ndakati ndichakupa mubayiro wakaisvonaka, asi Jehovha akudzivisa kuti upiwe mubayiro.”
Firi me so kɔ! Sane kɔ wo nkyi! Meyɛɛ mʼadwene sɛ anka mɛhyɛ wo animuonyam, nanso, Awurade de akame wo!”
12 Bharamu akapindura Bharaki akati, “Ko, handina kutaurira nhume dzawakatuma kwandiri here kuti,
Balaam buaa no sɛ, “Wonkae asɛm a meka kyerɛɛ wʼasomafoɔ no? Mekaa sɛ,
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 ahemfie a wɔde dwetɛ ne sikakɔkɔɔ ahyɛ hɔ ma koraa a, menni tumi sɛ mɛyɛ biribi atia Awurade apɛdeɛ.’ Meka kyerɛɛ wo sɛ asɛm a Awurade aka no nko ara na mɛka.
14 Zvino ndava kudzokera kuvanhu vokwangu, asi uya ndikuyambire zvichaitirwa vanhu vako navanhu ava pamazuva anouya.”
Afei, meresane akɔ me nkurɔfoɔ nkyɛn. Nanso, deɛ ɛdi ɛkan no, ma menka deɛ Israelfoɔ no bɛyɛ wo nkurɔfoɔ daakye no nkyerɛ wo.”
15 Ipapo akataura chirevo chake akati: “Chirevo chaBharamu mwanakomana waBheori, chirevo chaiye anoona zvakajeka,
Yei ne nkɔmhyɛ a Balaam de maeɛ: “Beor ba Balaam nkɔmhyɛ no nie; nkɔmhyɛ a ɛfiri ɔbarima a nʼani hunu adeɛ yie,
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:
deɛ ɔte Onyankopɔn asɛm; deɛ ɔwɔ nyansa a ɛfiri Ɔsorosoroni no deɛ ɔhunu anisoadeɛ a ɛfiri Otumfoɔ hɔ; na ɔda fam, a nʼani gu so:
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.
“Mɛhunu no, nanso ɛnyɛ seesei; mehwɛ no wɔ daakye akyirikyiri. Nsoromma bɛpue afiri Yakob mu! Ahempoma bɛfiri Israel mu. Ɔbɛyam Moabfoɔ tiri, na wapaapae Moab mma tikwankora.
18 Edhomu achakundwa; Seiri, muvengi wake, achakundwa, asi Israeri achasimba.
Wɔbɛfa Edom, na Seir a ɔyɛ ne ɔtamfoɔ no, wɔbɛdi ne so nkonim, na Israel bɛkɔ so adi nkonim.
19 Mutongi achabuda muna Jakobho uye achaparadza vakasara veguta.”
Ɔhene bi bɛsɔre wɔ Yakob mu ɔno na ɔbɛsɛe Ir nkaeɛfoɔ.”
20 Ipapo Bharamu akaona Amareki uye akataura chirevo chake achiti: “Amareki akanga ari wokutanga pakati pendudzi, asi pakupedzisira achaparadzwa.”
Afei, Balaam hwɛɛ Amalekfoɔ fie hyɛɛ nkɔm sɛ, “Amalek na na ɛyɛ aman nyinaa abakan, nanso ne hyɛberɛ ne ɔsɛeɛ!”
21 Ipapo akaona vaKeni uye akataura chirevo chake achiti: “Ugaro hwako hwakachengetedzeka, dendere rako rakavakwa padombo;
Afei, ɔhwɛɛ Kenifoɔ hyɛɛ nkɔm sɛ, “Mo atenaeɛ yɛ pa ara, wanwono mo pirebuo wɔ abotan mu.
22 asi imi vaKeni muchaparadzwa, Ashuri paachakutapai.”
Nanso, wɔbɛsɛe Kenifoɔ ɛberɛ a Asurhene afa mo nnomum.”
23 Ipapo akataura chirevo chake akati: “Haiwa, ndianiko angararama kana Mwari akaita izvi?
Nsɛm a ɔde wiee ne nkɔmhyɛ no ne sɛ: “Aa, sɛ Onyankopɔn yɛ sei a, hwan na ɔbɛtena nkwa mu?
24 Zvikepe zvichauya zvichibva kumahombekombe eKitimu; zvichakunda Ashuri neEbheri, asi naizvowo zvichaparadzwa.”
Ahyɛn bɛfiri Kipro mpoano aba Na abɛka Eber ne Asur ahyɛ. Nanso wɔn nso, wɔbɛsɛe wɔn pasaa.”
25 Ipapo Bharamu akasimuka akadzokera kunyika yake, uye Bharaki akaenda kwakewo.
Enti, Balaam ne Balak sane kɔɔ wɔn kurom.
