4 Mose 22
1 Afei, Israelfo no kɔɔ Moab tataw so kɔtenaa Asubɔnten Yordan apuei fam a ɛhɔ ne Yeriko di nhwɛanim no.
Israaʼeloonni gara dirree Moʼaabitti qajeelanii Yerikoon gama qarqara Yordaanos qubatan.
2 Sipor babarima Balak huu nea Israelfo ayɛ Amorifo no nyinaa,
Baalaaq ilmi Ziphoori waan Israaʼel Amoorotatti hojjete hunda arge;
3 na Moab huu Israelfo dodow a wɔwɔ hɔ no, ɔne ne nkurɔfo bɔɔ huboa.
Moʼaabis waan sabni sun akka malee baayʼee taʼeef ni sodaate. Moʼaabis sababii Israaʼelootaatiif raafame.
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
Warri Moʼaabis maanguddoota Midiyaaniin, “Namoonni baayʼeen kunneen akkuma qotiyyoon marga bakkee dheedee fixu sana waan naannoo keenya jiru dheedee fixa” jedhan. Kana irratti Baalaaq ilmi Ziphoori kan yeroo sana mootii Moʼaab ture sun,
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.

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.”
Sababii isaan na caalaa humna qabaniif amma kottuutii isaan abaari. Yoos ani isaan moʼadhee biyya keessaa ariʼee isaan baasuu nan dandaʼa taʼa. Ani akka warri ati eebbiftu eebbifaman, warri ati abaartus abaaraman nan beekaatii.”
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.
Maanguddoonni Moʼaabii fi Midiyaan sun kaʼanii kaffaltii mortuu sanaa fudhatanii deeman. Isaanis yommuu Balaʼaam bira gaʼanitti waan Baalaaq jedheen sana itti himan.
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.
Balaʼaamis, “Halkan kana asuma bulaa; anis deebii Waaqayyo naaf kennu isinitti nan hima” jedheen. Qondaaltonni Moʼaab sun isuma bira turan.
9 Anadwo no, Onyankopɔn baa Balaam nkyɛn bebisaa no se, “Saa nnipa yi yɛ hefo?”
Waaqni gara Balaʼaam dhufee, “Namoonni si wajjin jiran kunneen eenyu?” jedhee gaafate.
10 Obuae se, “Wɔde nkra afi Moabhene Balak nkyɛn abrɛ me se:
Balaʼaamis akkana jedhee Waaqaaf deebii kenne; “Baalaaq ilmi Ziphoori, mootichi Moʼaab akkana jedhee ergaa kana natti erge:
11 Nnipadɔm bi fi Misraim aba ne hye so. Enti bra na bɛdome wɔn sɛnea ɛbɛyɛ a metumi ne wɔn ako apam wɔn.”
‘Kunoo, sabni biyya Gibxii baʼee dhufe tokko lafa guuteera; ati amma kottuutii isaan naaf abaari. Yoos ani isaan lolee ariʼee biyyaa baasuu nan dandaʼa taʼaatii.’”
12 Onyankopɔn ka kyerɛɛ Balaam se, “Nkɔ. Ɛnsɛ sɛ wodome wɔn, efisɛ mahyira wɔn!”
Waaqayyo garuu Balaʼaamiin, “Isaan wajjin hin deemin. Sababii isaan eebbifamoo taʼaniif ati saba sana hin abaarin” jedhe.
13 Ade kyee anɔpa no, Balaam ka kyerɛɛ Balak nkurɔfo no se, “Monsan nkɔ fie! Awurade ampene sɛ me ne mo nkɔ.”
Balaʼaam ganama itti aanu kaʼee qondaaltota Baalaaqiin, “Sababii Waaqayyo isin wajjin deemuu na dhowweef, isin amma kaʼaa biyya keessanitti deebiʼaa” jedhe.
14 Enti Balak mpanyimfo no san bɛbɔɔ amanneɛ se, “Balaam ne yɛn amma.”
Qondaaltonni Moʼaab gara Baalaaqitti deebiʼanii, “Balaʼaam nu wajjin dhufuu dide” jedhaniin.
15 Balak somaa nnipa dodow pa ara a anuonyamfo a wɔkyɛn kan dɔm no fra wɔn mu.
Baalaaqis qondaaltota warra duraa sana caalaa baayʼee fi caalaa bebeekamoo kan biraa erge.
16 Wɔbaa Balaam nkyɛn bɛka kyerɛɛ no se, “Sɛnea Sipor ba Balak se ni, ‘Mma biribiara nsiw wo kwan sɛ wobɛba me nkyɛn,
Isaanis dhufanii Balaʼaamiin akkana jedhan: “Wanni Baalaaq ilmi Ziphoori jedhu kunoo kana: ‘Maaloo wanni tokko iyyuu gara koo dhufuu si hin dhowwin;
17 efisɛ metua wo ka yiye. Bra na bɛdome saa nnipa no ma me.’”
ani ulfina guddaa siif nan kennaatii; waan ati jettu hundas nan guuta. Kottuu saba kana naa abaari.’”
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.
Balaʼaam garuu akkana jedhee deebiseef; “Utuu Baalaaq masaraa isaa kan meetii fi warqeen guutame sana naaf kenne illee, ani ajaja Waaqayyo Waaqa kootiin alatti waan xinnaa yookaan guddaa tokko illee hojjechuu hin dandaʼu.
19 Nanso, monna ha mma ade nkye na yɛnhwɛ sɛ Awurade bɛka asɛm foforo bi aka nea waka dedaw no ho anaa.”
Akka ani waan Waaqayyo natti himu kan biraa beekuu dandaʼuuf isinis akkuma warra kaanii as bulaa.”
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.”
Halkan sana Waaqayyo gara Balaʼaam dhufee, “Sababii namoonni kunneen si waamuu dhufaniif, isaan wajjin deemi; garuu waanuma ani sitti himu qofa hojjedhu” jedheen.
21 Ade kyee anɔpa no, ɔhyehyɛɛ nʼafurum, tenaa ne so ne Moab mpanyimfo no sii mu.
Balaʼaam ganamaan kaʼee harree isaa irra kooraa kaaʼatee qondaaltota Moʼaab sana wajjin deeme.
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.
Waaqni garuu inni deemnaan itti aare; ergamaan Waaqayyoo tokkos isaan mormuuf jedhee karaa irra dhaabate. Balaʼaamis harree isaa yaabbatee deemaa ture; tajaajiltoonni isaa lamaan isa wajjin turan.
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.
Harreen sun immoo ergamaa Waaqayyoo kan goraadee luqqifatee harkatti qabatee karaa irra dhaabatu arginaan of irra gara galtee karaa irraa gortee lafa qotiisaa seente. Balaʼaamis karaatti ishee deebisuudhaaf harree sana rukute.
24 Na Awurade ɔbɔfo no gyina ɔkwan hiahiaa bi a ɛwɔ bobeturo afasu abien ntam.
Ergamaan Waaqayyoo sun garuu daandii dhiphoo, iddoo dhaabaa wayinii lama kanneen gama lamaan dallaa qaban gidduu baatu irra dhaabate.
25 Bere a afurum no huu Awurade bɔfo no, otwerii ɔfasu no ho maa Balaam nan pemee. Enti Balaam san hwee aboa no.
Harreen sun ergamaa Waaqayyoo arginaan, dallaatti maxxantee miilla Balaʼaam dallaatti buufte. Inni ammas harree sana rukute.
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.
Ergamaan Waaqayyoos fuula duratti hiiqee daandii dhiphaa iddoo ittiin mirgatti yookaan bitaatti goran hin qabne tokko irra dhaabate.
27 Enti obutuw ɔkwan no mu. Balaam bo fuw yiye ma ɔde abaa no hwee no.
Harreen sun ergamaa Waaqayyoo arginaan Balaʼaam jalaa gad ciifte; innis aaree ulee ofiitiin harree sana rukute.
28 Afei, Awurade buee afurum no ano, na obisaa Balaam se, “Mayɛ wo dɛn na nti a wohwe me mprɛnsa saa?”
Kana irratti Waaqayyo afaan harree sanaa banee harreen sun Balaʼaamiin, “Ani maal si yakkinaan ati akkas yeroo sadii na rukutte?” jette.
29 Balaam nso buaa no se, “Woama mayɛ ɔkwasea! Na sɛ mikura afoa a, anka mekum wo mprempren.”
Balaʼaamis harree sanaan, “Ati na gowwoomsite; ani utuu goraadee of harkaa qabaadhee silaa ammuman si ajjeesa” jedhe.
30 Afurum no nso bisaa no se, “Menyɛ wʼafurum a woatena me so daa de abesi nnɛ? So mayɛ sɛɛ pɛn?” Obuae se, “Dabi.”
Harreen sun amma illee Balaʼaamiin akkana jette; “Ani harree kee kan ati hamma harʼaatti guyyaa hunda yaabbattu mitii? Ani takkumaa waan akkasii sitti hojjedhee beekaa?” Innis, “Lakkii” jedhee deebiseef.
31 Afei, Awurade buee Balaam ani ma ohuu ɔsoro bɔfo no sɛ watwe afoa gyina ɔkwan no mfimfini. Enti ɔde nʼanim butuw fam.
Yommus Waaqayyo ija Balaʼaam bane; Balaʼaamis ergamaa Waaqayyoo kan goraadee luqqifatee karaa irra dhaabatu arge. Kana irratti inni addaan lafatti gombifamee sagade.
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.
Ergamaan Waaqayyoo sun akkana jedhee isa gaafate; “Ati maaliif yeroo sadan kana harree kee rukutte? Kunoo ani waan karaan kee fuula koo duratti jalʼaa taʼeef siin mormuudhaafan dhufe.
33 Afurum no huu me a ɔman faa nkyɛn mprɛnsa. Sɛ wamman a, anka mekum wo na magyaa no.”
Harreen kun na argitee yeroo kana sadanuu narraa gorte. Utuu isheen narraa goruu baattee silaa ani yoona si ajjeesee ishee immoo hambisa ture.”
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.”
Balaʼaamis ergamaa Waaqayyootiin, “Ani cubbuu hojjedheera. Ani akka ati naan mormuuf jettee karaa irra dhaabatte hin hubanne. Ammas yoo sitti hin tolin ani nan deebiʼa” jedhe.
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.
Ergamaan Waaqayyoo sunis Balaʼaamiin, “Namoota kana wajjin deemi; garuu waanuma ani sitti himu qofa dubbadhu” jedhe. Akkasiin Balaʼaam qondaaltota Baalaaq sana wajjin deeme.
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.
Baalaaqis akka Balaʼaam dhufaa jiru dhageenyaan, magaalaa Moʼaab kan daarii Arnoon irratti argamtutti isa simachuudhaaf kaʼee deeme.
37 Balak bisaa Balaam se, “Mamfrɛ wo ɔhare so ana? Adɛn nti na woamma me nkyɛn? So merentumi ntua wo ka ana?”
Baalaaqis Balaʼaamiin akkana jedhe; “Ani dhaamsa ariifachiisaa sitti hin erginee? Ati maaliif na bira hin dhufne? Ani dhugumaan ulfina siif kennuu hin dandaʼuu?”
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.”
Balaʼaamis, “Kunoo ani si bira dhufeera. Garuu ani waanuman arge dubbachuu nan dandaʼaa? Ani waanuma Waaqni afaan koo keessa kaaʼu qofan dubbachuu qaba” jedhee deebise.
39 Balaam kaa Balak ho ne no kɔɔ Kiria-Husot.
Balaʼaamis kaʼee Baalaaq wajjin Qiiriyaati Haxoti dhaqe.
40 Balak kum anantwi ne nguan bɔɔ afɔre na ɔde mmoa no bi maa Balaam ne ne mpanyimfo a wɔka ne ho.
Baalaaq loonii fi hoolaa aarsaa dhiʼeessee gara tokko Balaʼaamii fi qondaaltota isa wajjin turaniif kenne.
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.
Ganama itti aanus Baalaaq, Balaʼaamin Baamooti Baʼaalitti ol baase; innis achi dhaabatee saba Israaʼel warra daangaa gamaa irra jiran arge.
