Hesabu 23
1 Balaamu akamwabia Balaki, “Jenga madhabahu saba kwa ajili yangu na uandae mafahari saba na kondoo dume saba.”
and to say Balaam to(wards) Balak to build to/for me in/on/with this seven altar and to establish: prepare to/for me in/on/with this seven bullock and seven ram
2 Kwa hiyo Balaki akafanya kama Balaamu alivyoomba. Kisha Balaki na Balaamu wakatoa sadaka ya fahari mmoja na kondoo dume mmoja kwa kila madhabahu.
and to make: do Balak like/as as which to speak: speak Balaam and to ascend: offer up Balak and Balaam bullock and ram in/on/with altar
3 Ndipo Balaamu alipomwamiba Balaki, “Simama kwenye sadaka yako ya kuteketezwa na mimi nitaenda. Labda BWANA atakuja kukutana na mimi. Chochote atakachoniambia nitakuambia.” Kwa hiyo akaenda juu ya mlima usiokuwa na miti.
and to say Balaam to/for Balak to stand upon burnt offering your and to go: went perhaps to meet LORD to/for to encounter: meet me and word: thing what? to see: see me and to tell to/for you and to go: went bareness
4 Wakati bado akiwa juu ya mlima. Mungu akakutana naye, na Balaamu akamwambia, “Nimejenga madhabahu saba, na nimetoa sadaka ya fahari na kondoo dume kwa kila madhabahu.”
and to meet God to(wards) Balaam and to say to(wards) him [obj] seven [the] altar to arrange and to ascend: offer up bullock and ram in/on/with altar
5 BWANA akaweka ujumbe kwenye kinywa cha Baalamu akasema, “Rudi kwa Balaki ukamwambie.”
and to set: put LORD word in/on/with lip Balaam and to say to return: return to(wards) Balak and thus to speak: speak
6 Kwa hiyo Balaamu akarudi kwa Balaki aliyekuwa amesimama karibu na sadaka yake ya kuteketezwa, na viongozi wote wa Moabu walikuwa pamoja naye.
and to return: return to(wards) him and behold to stand upon burnt offering his he/she/it and all ruler Moab
7 Ndipo Balaamu alipoanza kunena unabii wake akisema, “Balaki amenileta kutoka Aramu, Mfalme wa Moabu kutoka katika milima ya mashariki, 'Njoo, nilaanie Yakobo kwa ajili yangu,' alisema, 'Njoo umtie unajisi Israeli,'
and to lift: loud proverb his and to say from (Paddan)-aram to lead me Balak king Moab from mountain front: east to go: come! [emph?] to curse [emph?] to/for me Jacob and to go: come! [emph?] be indignant [emph?] Israel
8 Nawezaje kuwalaani wale ambao Mungu hajawalaani? Nawezaje kuwapinga wale ambao Mungu hawapingi?
what? to curse not to curse him God and what? be indignant not be indignant LORD
9 Kwa kuwa kutoka juu ya miamba Ninamwona; kutoka kwenye milima ninamtazama. Kuna watu wanaoishi pekee yao na hawajioni wenyewe kama ni taifa la kawaida.
for from head: top rock to see: see him and from hill to see him look! people to/for isolation to dwell and in/on/with nation not to devise: count
10 Nani awezaye kuyahesabu mavumbi ya Yakobo au kuhesabu hata robo ya Israeli? Naomba nife kifo cha mtu mwenye haki, na mwisho wa maisha yangu uwe kama wake!”
who? to count dust Jacob and number [obj] fourth Israel to die soul: myself my death upright and to be end my like him
11 Balaki akamwambia Balaamu, “Umenifanyia nini? Nilikuleta ili uwalaani maadui wangu, lakini ona, umewabariki,”
and to say Balak to(wards) Balaam what? to make: do to/for me to/for to curse enemy my to take: take you and behold to bless to bless
12 Balaamu akajibu akasema, “Kwa nini nisiwe mwangalifu kusema kile ambacho BWANA anaweka kinywani mwangu?”
and to answer and to say not [obj] which to set: put LORD in/on/with lip my [obj] him to keep: careful to/for to speak: speak
13 Basi Balaki akamwambia, “Hebu uje nami kwenye eneo jingine ili uwaone. Utakaowaona ni wale wa karibu tu, huwezi kuwaona wote. Huko sasa unaweza kunilaania hawa watu.”
and to say to(wards) him Balak (to go: come [emph?] *Q(K)*) please with me to(wards) place another which to see: see him from there end end his to see: see and all his not to see: see and to curse me to/for me from there
14 Kwa hiyo akampeleka Balaamu kwenye shamba la Zofimu, lililo juu ya Mlima Pisiga, na kule akajenga madhabau zingine saba. Akatoa sadaka ya fahari mmoja na kondoo dume kwa kila madhabahu.
and to take: take him land: country Zophim to(wards) head: top [the] Pisgah and to build seven altar and to ascend: offer up bullock and ram in/on/with altar
15 Kisha Balaamu akamwambia Balaki, “Simama hapa karibu na sadaka zako, wakati mimi naenda kukutana na BWANA kule.”
and to say to(wards) Balak to stand thus upon burnt offering your and I to meet thus
16 Kwa hiyo BWANA akakutana na Balaamu na kumwekea ujumbe kinywani mwake. Alimwambia, “Rudi kwa Balaki ukamwambie huu ujumbe toka kwangu.”
and to meet LORD to(wards) Balaam and to set: put word in/on/with lip his and to say to return: return to(wards) Balak and thus to speak: speak
17 Balaamu akamrudia, na tazama, alikuwa amesimama karibu na sadaka zake za kuteketezwa, na vionigozi wa Moabu walikuwa pamoja naye. Balaki akamwuliza, “BWANA amekwambiaje?”
and to come (in): come to(wards) him and behold he to stand upon burnt offering his and ruler Moab with him and to say to/for him Balak what? to speak: speak LORD
18 Balaamu akaanza kutoa unabii. Akasema, “Inuka, Balaki na usikilize. Nisikilize mimi wewe mwana wa Zippori.
and to lift: loud proverb his and to say to arise: rise Balak and to hear: hear to listen [emph?] till me son: child his Zippor
19 Mungu siyo mtu, kwamba umdanganye, au mwanadamu awezaye kubadili mawazo. Je, alishawahi kuahidi kitu pasipo kukitekeleza? Je, alishawahi kusema kuwa atafanya kitu bila kufanya kama alivyosema?
not man God and to lie and son: child man and to be sorry: relent he/she/it to say and not to make: do and to speak: speak and not to arise: establish her
20 Tazama, Mimi nimeamriwa kuwabariki. Mungu ametoa baraka, nami siwezi kuibadilisha.
behold to bless to take: recieve and to bless and not to return: turn back her
21 Hajawahi kuona magumu katika Yakobo au tabu katika Israeli. BWANA Mungu wao yuko pamoja nao, na kelele za wafalme wao ziko pamoja nao.
not to look evil: trouble in/on/with Jacob and not to see: see trouble in/on/with Israel LORD God his with him and shout king in/on/with him
22 Mungu aliwatoa Misri kwa nguvu kama za nyati.
God to come out: send them from Egypt like/as peak wild ox to/for him
23 Hakuna uganga utakaofanikiwa dhidi ya Yakobo, na hakuna uchawi utakaomwumiza Israeli. Badala yake, itasemwa juu ya Yakobo na Israeli, 'Tazama kile ambacho Mungu amefanya!'
for not divination in/on/with Jacob and not divination in/on/with Israel like/as time to say to/for Jacob and to/for Israel what? to work God
24 Tazama, watu wanainuka kama simba jike, kama vile simba ainukavyo na kuvamia. Halali chini mpaka ale windo lake na kunywa damu ya windo lake,”
look! people like/as lion to arise: rise and like/as lion to lift: raise not to lie down: lay down till to eat prey and blood slain: killed to drink
25 Kisha Balaki akamwambia Balaamu, “Kamwe usiwalaani wala kuwabariki.”
and to say Balak to(wards) Balaam also to curse not to curse him also to bless not to bless him
26 Lakini Balaamu akamjibu Balaki, “Sijakuambia kuwa nitasema yote ambayo BWANA ananiambia kusema?
and to answer Balaam and to say to(wards) Balak not to speak: speak to(wards) you to/for to say all which to speak: speak LORD [obj] him to make: do
27 Balaki akamwambia Balaamu, “Njoo sasa, Nami nitakupeleka mahali pengine. Labda kule itampendeza Mungu kunilaania hawa hawa watu.”
and to say Balak to(wards) Balaam to go: come! [emph?] please to take: take you to(wards) place another perhaps to smooth in/on/with eye: appearance [the] God and to curse him to/for me from there
28 Kwa hiyo Balaki akampeleka Balaamu juu ya Mlima Peori, ambao unalitazama chini lile jangwa,
and to take: take Balak [obj] Balaam head: top [the] Peor [the] to look upon face: surface [the] wilderness
29 Balaamu akamwambia Balaki, “Nijengee madhabahu saba hapa na uniandalie mafahari saba na kondoo duume saba.
and to say Balaam to(wards) Balak to build to/for me in/on/with this seven altar and to establish: prepare to/for me in/on/with this seven bullock and seven ram
30 “Kwa hiyo Balaki akafanya kama alivyoambiwa; akatoa sadaka ya fahari na kondoo mume kwenye kila madhabahu.
and to make: do Balak like/as as which to say Balaam and to ascend: offer up bullock and ram in/on/with altar
