4 Mose 22
1 Afei, Israelfo no kɔɔ Moab tataw so kɔtenaa Asubɔnten Yordan apuei fam a ɛhɔ ne Yeriko di nhwɛanim no.
Eka jo-Israel nowuotho e pewe mag Moab mi gibworo e dho Aora Jordan momanyore gi Jeriko.
2 Sipor babarima Balak huu nea Israelfo ayɛ Amorifo no nyinaa,
Balak wuod Zipor noneno gigo duto mane jo-Israel osetimo ni jo-Amor,
3 na Moab huu Israelfo dodow a wɔwɔ hɔ no, ɔne ne nkurɔfo bɔɔ huboa.
kendo Moab ne nigi bwok maduongʼ nikech jogo ne ngʼeny ahinya. Adiera, Moab luoro nomako ahinya nikech jo-Israel.
4 Moabfo no ka kyerɛɛ Midian mpanyimfo no se, “Saa dɔm yi bɛwe biribiara a ɛwɔ ha no, sɛnea nantwi we sare.” Enti Sipor ba Balak a na ɔyɛ Moabhene saa bere no
Jo-Moab nowacho ne jodong Midian niya, “Oganda mangʼenyni biro tieko gimoro amora ma wan-go, mana kaka rwath tieko lum manie pap.” Omiyo Balak wuod Zipor, mane ruodh Moab e kindeno,
5 somaa nnipa ma wɔkɔɔ Beor babarima Balaam nkyɛn wɔ Petor a ɛbɛn Asubɔnten Eufrate ho. Balak kae se, “Nnipadɔm bi fi Misraim aba. Wɔkata asase ani nyinaa na wɔabɛtena abɛn me.
nooro joote mondo oluong Balaam wuod Beor, mane ni Pethor but Aora Yufrate, mantiere e piny mane onywole. Balak nowacho kama: “Ogandagi oa Misri; gipongʼo wangʼ piny kendo gidak machiegni koda.
6 Mɛsrɛ wo, bra na bɛdome wɔn ma me, efisɛ wɔyɛ den sen me. Ebia ɛbɛma matumi adi wɔn so nkonim na mapam wɔn afi asase no so. Efisɛ minim nhyira a ɛba wɔn a wuhyira wɔn no so, na minim mmusu a ɛba wɔn a wodome wɔn no so nso.”
Koro bi mondo ikwongʼ jogi, nikech tekregi thoth. Dibed ni bangʼ ma anyalo loyogi mi ariembgi gia e pinyni. Nimar angʼeyo ni joma igwedho ogwedhi, kendo joma ikwongʼo okwongʼ.”
7 Moab ne Midian mpanyimfo no fii hɔ a na wokita sika a wɔde rekotua Balaam ka ama wadome Israelfo no. Enti wɔkɔɔ Balaam nkyɛn kɔkaa nea ehia Balak no kyerɛɛ no.
Jodong Moab kod Midian nowuok, ka gikawo chudo mar koro. Kane gichopo ir Balaam, neginyise gima Balak nowacho.
8 Balaam kae se, “Monna mma ade nkye mo. Ade kye a, nea Awurade bɛkyerɛ me sɛ menyɛ no, mɛka akyerɛ mo.” Enti Moab mpanyimfo no dae.
Balaam nowachonegi niya, “Ninduru ka kawuono kendo abiro miyou dwoko ma Jehova Nyasaye omiya.” Omiyo jotend jo-Moab nobedo kode.
9 Anadwo no, Onyankopɔn baa Balaam nkyɛn bebisaa no se, “Saa nnipa yi yɛ hefo?”
Nyasaye nofwenyore ne Balaam mopenje niya, “Magi ngʼa gini man kodigi?”
10 Obuae se, “Wɔde nkra afi Moabhene Balak nkyɛn abrɛ me se:
To Balaam nonyiso Nyasaye niya, “Balak wuod Zipor, ma ruodh Moab, noorona ote ni:
11 Nnipadɔm bi fi Misraim aba ne hye so. Enti bra na bɛdome wɔn sɛnea ɛbɛyɛ a metumi ne wɔn ako apam wɔn.”
‘Joma oa Misri opongʼo wangʼ piny. Koro bi kendo ikwongʼnagi. Dibed ni bangʼe anyalo kedo kodgi mi ariembgi.’”
12 Onyankopɔn ka kyerɛɛ Balaam se, “Nkɔ. Ɛnsɛ sɛ wodome wɔn, efisɛ mahyira wɔn!”
To Nyasaye nowacho ne Balaam niya, “Kik idhi kodgi. Kik ikwongʼ jogo, nikech gin joma ogwedhi.”
13 Ade kyee anɔpa no, Balaam ka kyerɛɛ Balak nkurɔfo no se, “Monsan nkɔ fie! Awurade ampene sɛ me ne mo nkɔ.”
Kinyne gokinyi Balaam noa malo mi owachone jotend Balak niya, “Doguru e pinyu, nimar Jehova Nyasaye osedagi weya mondo adhi kodu.”
14 Enti Balak mpanyimfo no san bɛbɔɔ amanneɛ se, “Balaam ne yɛn amma.”
Omiyo jotend jo-Moab nodok ir Balak mi owacho niya, “Balaam nodagi biro kodwa.”
15 Balak somaa nnipa dodow pa ara a anuonyamfo a wɔkyɛn kan dɔm no fra wɔn mu.
Eka Balak nooro jotelo mamoko mangʼeny moloyo kendo mongirore moloyo mokwongo ka.
16 Wɔbaa Balaam nkyɛn bɛka kyerɛɛ no se, “Sɛnea Sipor ba Balak se ni, ‘Mma biribiara nsiw wo kwan sɛ wobɛba me nkyɛn,
Negidok ir Balaam mi giwachone kama: “Ma e gima Balak wuod Zipor wacho: Kik iwe gimoro amora tami biro ira,
17 efisɛ metua wo ka yiye. Bra na bɛdome saa nnipa no ma me.’”
nikech abiro chuli maber kendo timoni gimoro amora miwacho. Bi mondo ikwongʼna ogandani.”
18 Nanso, Balaam buae se, “Sɛ Balak ma me dwetɛ ne sikakɔkɔɔ a ɛwɔ nʼahemfi hɔ nyinaa mpo a, merentumi nyɛ biribiara mmu saa ahyɛde a Awurade a ɔyɛ me Nyankopɔn no ahyɛ no so.
To Balaam nodwoko jotij Balak niya, “Kata ne bed ni Balak ne omiya kar dakne mopongʼ gi fedha gi dhahabu, to ok anyal timo gimoro amora maduongʼ kata matin makalo chik mar Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasacha.
19 Nanso, monna ha mma ade nkye na yɛnhwɛ sɛ Awurade bɛka asɛm foforo bi aka nea waka dedaw no ho anaa.”
Koro ninduru ka otienoni kaka jowadu mamoko ka notimo, mondo abi awinjiane gima nyien ma Jehova Nyasaye biro nyisa kuom wachni.”
20 Anadwo no, Onyankopɔn ka kyerɛɛ Balaam se, “Esiane sɛ nnipa no abɛfrɛ wo no nti, Sɔre na wo ne saa nnipa no nkɔ na mmom, hwɛ yiye na yɛ nea mɛkyerɛ wo sɛ yɛ no nko ara.”
Nyasaye nofwenyore ne Balaam otienono mowachone niya, “Nikech jogi obiro luongi, yie idhi kodgi, to kata kamano itim mana gima anyisi.”
21 Ade kyee anɔpa no, ɔhyehyɛɛ nʼafurum, tenaa ne so ne Moab mpanyimfo no sii mu.
Balaam nochiewo gokinyi, moidho pundane kendo nodhi gi jotelo mag Moab.
22 Nanso, Onyankopɔn bo fuw Balaam ahopere a ɔde kɔe no; enti ɔsomaa Awurade bɔfo ma ogyinaa akwantemfi sɛ onsiw no kwan. Na Balaam te nʼafurum so a nʼasomfo baanu ka ne ho.
To mirima nomako Nyasaye ahinya kane odhi, kendo malaika mar Jehova Nyasaye nochungʼ e yo mondo ogengʼne. Balaam noidho pundane, kendo jotijene ariyo bende ne ni kode.
23 Afurum no huu Awurade bɔfo no sɛ okura afoa gyina kwan no mfimfini no, ɔman faa wuram. Balaam hwee no sɛnea ɛbɛyɛ a ɔbɛfa ɔkwan no so.
Kane pundano oneno malaika mar Jehova Nyasaye kochungʼ e chuny yo kotingʼo ligangla e lwete, nobaro oko mar yo modhi e puodho. Balaam nogoye mondo oduog e wangʼ yo.
24 Na Awurade ɔbɔfo no gyina ɔkwan hiahiaa bi a ɛwɔ bobeturo afasu abien ntam.
Eka malaika mar Jehova Nyasaye nodhi mochungʼ kamoro ma yo dinygo e kind puothe ariyo mag mzabibu kama ochiel gohinga koni gi koni.
25 Bere a afurum no huu Awurade bɔfo no, otwerii ɔfasu no ho maa Balaam nan pemee. Enti Balaam san hwee aboa no.
Kane pundano oneno malaika mar Jehova Nyasaye, nosudo machiegni gohingano moreyo tiend Balaam gohingano. Omiyo nogoyo pundano kendo.
26 Afei, Awurade bɔfo no kɔɔ nʼanim kogyinaa baabi a ɛhɔ kyere pa ara a na afurum no nnya baabi nnan ne ho mfa nifa anaa benkum.
Eka malaika mar Jehova Nyasaye nosudo nyime mi ochungʼ kama diny maonge thuolo mar lokruok, korachwich kata koracham.
27 Enti obutuw ɔkwan no mu. Balaam bo fuw yiye ma ɔde abaa no hwee no.
Kane pundano oneno malaika mar Jehova Nyasaye, nonindo piny e tiend Balaam, kendo ii Balaam nowangʼ mi ochwade gi luth.
28 Afei, Awurade buee afurum no ano, na obisaa Balaam se, “Mayɛ wo dɛn na nti a wohwe me mprɛnsa saa?”
Eka Jehova Nyasaye noyawo dho pundano, kendo nowacho ne Balaam niya, “En angʼo masetimoni momiyo isegoya nyadidek?”
29 Balaam nso buaa no se, “Woama mayɛ ɔkwasea! Na sɛ mikura afoa a, anka mekum wo mprempren.”
Balaam nodwoko pundano niya, “Isemiya achalo ngʼama ofuwo! Kane bed ni an-gi ligangla e lweta, to dikoro asenegi.”
30 Afurum no nso bisaa no se, “Menyɛ wʼafurum a woatena me so daa de abesi nnɛ? So mayɛ sɛɛ pɛn?” Obuae se, “Dabi.”
Pundano nopenjo Balaam niya, “Donge an mana pundani owuon, ma isebedo ka iidho, nyaka kawuononi? Bende iseneno ka an gi kido mar timoni gima chalo kama?” Nodwoke niya, “Ooyo.”
31 Afei, Awurade buee Balaam ani ma ohuu ɔsoro bɔfo no sɛ watwe afoa gyina ɔkwan no mfimfini. Enti ɔde nʼanim butuw fam.
Bangʼe Jehova Nyasaye noyawo wenge Balaam, mi noneno malaika mar Jehova Nyasaye kochungʼ e wangʼ yo korieyo ligangla mare. Omiyo nokulore piny kendo nopodho auma e lowo.
32 Awurade bɔfo no bisaa no se, “Adɛn nti na woahwe wʼafurum no mprɛnsa saa? Maba sɛ merebesiw wo kwan, efisɛ wʼakwan mu no wunni ahwɛyie wɔ mʼanim.
Malaika mar Jehova Nyasaye nopenje niya, “Angʼo momiyo isechwado pundani nyadidek? Abiro mondo agengʼi nikech yoreni obam e nyima.
33 Afurum no huu me a ɔman faa nkyɛn mprɛnsa. Sɛ wamman a, anka mekum wo na magyaa no.”
Punda nonena nyadidek mobaro oa yo. To ka dine ok obaro, to dine asenegi, to en to aweye odhi.”
34 Balaam ka kyerɛɛ Awurade bɔfo no se, “Mafom. Na minnim sɛ wugyina ɔkwan no mu a worebesiw me kwan. Sɛ wʼani nnye ho a mɛsan akɔ.”
Balaam nowacho ne malaika mar Jehova Nyasaye niya, “Asetimo richo. Ne ok angʼeyo nine ichungʼ e wangʼ yo mondo igengʼna. Koro ka ok imor, to abiro dok dala.”
35 Awurade bɔfo no ka kyerɛɛ no se, “Wo ne nnipa no nkɔ, nanso asɛm a mɛka akyerɛ wo no nko ara na ka.” Enti Balaam ne Balak mpanyimfo no kɔe.
Malaika mar Jehova Nyasaye nowacho ne Balaam niya, “Dhiyo adhiya gi jogi, to iwach mana gima awachoni.” Omiyo Balaam nodhi gi jodong Balak.
36 Bere a Balak tee sɛ Balaam reba no, ofii kurow no mu kohyiaa no wɔ Moabfo kurow mu wɔ Arnon hye so, wɔ nʼasase ano.
Kane Balak owinjo ni Balaam biro, nowuok mondo oromne e dala jo-Moab mokiewo gi aora Arnon, e giko mar pinye.
37 Balak bisaa Balaam se, “Mamfrɛ wo ɔhare so ana? Adɛn nti na woamma me nkyɛn? So merentumi ntua wo ka ana?”
Balak nowacho ne Balaam niya, “Donge ne aoroni joote mondo ibi ira piyo? Angʼo ma nomoni biro ira? Koso iparo ni ok anyal chuli?”
38 Balaam buae se, “Ɛwɔ mu sɛ maba de, nanso merentumi nka nea mepɛ biara. Asɛm a Onyankopɔn de bɛhyɛ mʼano no nko ara na ɛsɛ sɛ meka.”
Balaam nodwoko niya, “Mano ber, eri asebiro. Koso iparo ni anyalo wacho gimoro amora? Ooyo, nyaka awach mana gima Nyasaye oketo e dhoga.”
39 Balaam kaa Balak ho ne no kɔɔ Kiria-Husot.
Eka Balaam nodhi gi Balak nyaka Kiriath Huzoth.
40 Balak kum anantwi ne nguan bɔɔ afɔre na ɔde mmoa no bi maa Balaam ne ne mpanyimfo a wɔka ne ho.
Balak nochiwo misango mar dhok kod rombe, kendo nochiwo moko ne Balaam kod jodongo mane ni kode.
41 Ade kyee anɔpa no, Balak faa Balaam de no kɔɔ Bamot-Baal atifi. Ofi hɔ too nʼani huu sɛ Israelfo no sam wɔn atenae hɔ.
Kinyne gokinyi Balak nokawo Balaam motero Bamoth Baal, kendo kanyo noneno bath oganda.
