Qɵl-bayawandiki sǝpǝr 22
1 Israillar yǝnǝ yolƣa qiⱪip Moab tüzlǝnglikliridǝ, yǝni Iordan dǝryasining xǝrⱪ tǝripidǝ, Yerihoning udulida qedir tikti.
Abako-Israyeli basuka lapho baya emagcekeni aseMowabi bamisa izihonqo zabo zisekele umfula iJodani ngaphetsheya kweJerikho.
2 Israillarning Amoriylarƣa ⱪilƣan ixlirining ⱨǝmmisini Zipporning oƣli Balaⱪ kɵrüp turƣanidi.
UBhalaki indodana kaZiphori wabona konke okwenziwa ngu-Israyeli kuma-Amori,
3 Moablar hǝlⱪtin intayin ⱪorⱪuxti, qünki ular bǝk kɵp idi; Moabiylar Israillarning sǝwǝbidin bǝk alaⱪzadǝ bolup ketixti.
ngakho uMowabi wesaba ngoba abantu bako-Israyeli babebanengi kakhulu. Ngempela uMowabi watshaywa luvalo ngenxa yokwesaba abako-Israyeli.
4 Moabiylar Midiyan aⱪsaⱪalliriƣa: «Bu bir top adǝm ǝtrapimizdiki ⱨǝmmǝ nǝrsini, huddi kala etizdiki otni yalmiƣandǝk yalmap yǝp ketidiƣan boldi» — deyixti. U qaƣda Zipporning oƣli Balaⱪ Moabning padixaⱨi idi.
AmaMowabi athi ebadaleni bamaMidiyani, “Ixuku leli lizahuquluza konke esilakho, njengenkabi isidla utshani emadlelweni.” Ngakho uBhalaki indodana kaZiphori, owayeyinkosi yamaMowabi ngalesosikhathi,
5 U ǝlqilǝrni Beorning oƣli Balaamning aldiƣa, Balaamning ana yurtidiki uluƣ dǝrya boyidiki Petor xǝⱨirigǝ berip, Balaamni qaⱪirip kelixkǝ ǝwǝtip: padixaⱨimiz: — «Ⱪarisila, bir hǝlⱪ Misirdin qiⱪⱪanidi; mana, ular pütün zeminƣa yamrap kǝtti, mana ular bizning udulimizƣa kelip qüxti.
wathumela izithunywa ukuyabiza uBhalamu indodana kaBheyori, owayehlala ePhethori eduzane lomfula iYufrathe elizweni lakibo lomdabuko. UBhalaki wathi, “Kulabantu abanengi kakhulu abavela eGibhithe; bagcwele ilizwe lonke njalo bahlezi eduze kwami.
6 Ular meningdin küqlük bolƣaqⱪa, ǝmdi ɵzliri kelip bu hǝlⱪni mǝn üqün bir ⱪarƣap bǝrgǝn bolsila; bǝlkim mǝn ularni yengip, bu zemindin ⱪoƣlap qiⱪirixim mumkin; qünki ɵzliri kimgǝ bǝht tilisilǝ xuning bǝht ⱪuqidiƣanliⱪini, kimni ⱪarƣisila, xuning ⱪarƣixⱪa ⱪalidiƣanliⱪini bilimǝn» dǝydu, dǝnglar, — dedi.
Woza khathesi uzeletha isithuko phezu kwabo, ngoba balamandla kulami. Mhlawumbe ngalokho ngingabehlula ngibaxotshe elizweni. Ngoba ngiyazi ukuthi labo obabusisayo bayabusiseka, njalo labo obaqalekisayo bayaqalekiswa.”
7 Moabning aⱪsaⱪalliri bilǝn Midiyanning aⱪsaⱪalliri ⱪollirida pal selix in’amlirini elip mangdi; ular Balaamning aldiƣa kelip Balaⱪning gǝplirini yǝtküzdi.
Abadala bamaMowabi labamaMidiyani basuka, bathatha imbadalo yokuhlahlula. Bathe befika kuBhalamu, bamtshela lokho okwatshiwo nguBhalaki.
8 Balaam ularƣa: — Bügün ahxam muxu yǝrdǝ ⱪonup ⱪelinglar, mǝn Pǝrwǝrdigarning manga ⱪilƣan sɵzi boyiqǝ silǝrgǝ jawap yǝtküzimǝn, — dedi. Xuning bilǝn Moabning xu ǝmirliri Balaamningkidǝ ⱪonup ⱪaldi.
“Lalani lapha okwalamuhla,” watsho uBhalamu kubo, “Ngizalilethela impendulo engizayiphiwa nguThixo.” Ngakho amakhosana amaMowabi ahlala laye.
9 Huda Balaamningkigǝ kelip: — Sening bilǝn billǝ turƣan bu adǝmlǝr kim? — dewidi,
UNkulunkulu weza kuBhalamu wambuza wathi, “Amadoda la olawo ngobani?”
10 Balaam Hudaƣa: — Moab padixaⱨi Zipporning oƣli Balaⱪ ǝlqilǝrni ǝwǝtip manga:
UBhalamu wathi kuNkulunkulu, “UBhalaki indodana kaZiphori inkosi yamaMowabi ungithumele lelizwi elithi:
11 «Ⱪarisila, Misirdin bir hǝlⱪ qiⱪⱪanidi, ular pütün zeminƣa yamrap kǝtti; bu yǝrgǝ kelip mening üqün ularni ⱪarƣap bǝrsilǝ, xundaⱪ ⱪilsila bǝlkim ularni yengip, bu yǝrdin ⱪoƣliwetǝlixim mumkin» — dedi, — dedi.
‘Kulabantu abavele eGibhithe abagcwele elizweni lonke. Woza masinyane uzongiqalekisela lababantu. Mhlawumbe ngingaba lakho ukubalwisa ngibaxotshe lapha.’”
12 Huda Balaamƣa: Sǝn ular bilǝn billǝ barsang bolmaydu, u hǝlⱪni ⱪarƣisangmu bolmaydu, qünki ularƣa bǝht-bǝrikǝt ata ⱪilinƣan, — dedi.
Kodwa uNkulunkulu wathi kuBhalamu, “Ungahambi labo. Ungabaqalekisi lababantu, ngoba babusisiwe.”
13 Balaam ǝtigǝn turup Balaⱪning ǝmǝldarliriƣa: — Silǝr ɵz yurtunglarƣa ⱪaytip ketinglar, qünki Pǝrwǝrdigar mening silǝr bilǝn billǝ beriximƣa ruhsǝt ⱪilmidi, — dedi.
Ekuseni ngosuku olulandelayo uBhalamu wavuka esithi kumakhosana kaBhalaki, “Buyelani ezweni lenu, ngoba uThixo walile ukuthi ngihambe lani.”
14 Moabning ǝmǝldarliri ⱪopup Balaⱪning yeniƣa kelip uningƣa: — Balaam biz bilǝn billǝ kelixkǝ unimidi, — dedi.
Ngakho amakhosana amaMowabi abuyela kuBhalaki athi, “UBhalamu walile ukubuya lathi.”
15 Xuning bilǝn Balaⱪ tehimu kɵp wǝ tehimu mɵtiwǝr ǝmǝldarlarni ǝwǝtti,
Ngakho uBhalaki wathumela amanye amakhosana amanengi njalo adumileyo kulawakuqala.
16 Ular Balaamning aldiƣa kelip uningƣa: — «Zipporning oƣli Balaⱪ mundaⱪ dǝydu: — «Ⱨeqnemǝ silining yenimƣa kelixlirini tosumiƣay;
Eza kuBhalamu afika athi: “Nanku okutshiwo nguBhalaki indodana kaZiphori: Akungabi lalutho olungakuvimbela ukuza kimi,
17 qünki mǝn ɵzlirini zor xan-xɵⱨrǝtkǝ igǝ ⱪilimǝn; nemǝ desilǝ maⱪul dǝymǝn; xunga manga ǝxu hǝlⱪni ⱪarƣap bǝrsilila bolidu», — dedi.
ngoba ngizakunika umvuzo omuhle njalo ngenze konke okutshoyo. Woza uzongiqalekisela lababantu.”
18 Balaam Balaⱪning hizmǝtkarliriƣa jawabǝn: — Balaⱪ manga ɵzining altun-kümüxkǝ liⱪ tolƣan ɵz ɵyini bǝrsimu, mǝyli qong yaki kiqik ix ⱪilay, Hudayim Pǝrwǝrdigarning manga buyruƣanliridin ⱨalⱪip ketǝlmǝymǝn.
Kodwa uBhalamu wabaphendula wathi, “Loba uBhalaki enganginika isigodlo sakhe sigcwele isiliva legolide, angingeke ngenze ulutho olukhulu loba oluncane oluphambene lelizwi likaThixo uNkulunkulu wami.
19 Silǝrmu bügün ahxam muxu yǝrdǝ ⱪonup ⱪelinglar, Pǝrwǝrdigar yǝnǝ xu ixlar toƣrisida manga nemǝ dǝydikin, xuni bilǝy, — dedi.
Khathesi hlalani lapha okwalobubusuku njengalokhu okwenziwe ngabanye, mina ngizadingisisa ukuthi kuyini okunye uThixo azangitshela khona.”
20 Xu keqisi Huda Balaamningkigǝ kelip uningƣa: — U kixilǝr seni tǝklip ⱪilip kǝlgǝn bolsa, ular bilǝn billǝ barƣin, lekin sǝn Mening sanga eytidiƣanlirim boyiqǝ ix ⱪilixing kerǝk, — dedi.
Ngalobobusuku uNkulunkulu weza kuBhalamu wathi, “Njengoba ethunywe ukuzakubiza, hamba lawo, kodwa wenze lokho kuphela engizakutshela khona.”
21 Balaam ǝtigǝn turup exikini toⱪup Moabning ǝmirliri bilǝn billǝ mangdi.
UBhalamu wavuka ekuseni, wagada ubabhemi wakhe wahle wahamba lamakhosana amaMowabi.
22 Huda Balaamning mangƣanliⱪidin ƣǝzǝplǝndi; Pǝrwǝrdigarning Pǝrixtisi uni tosuxⱪa yolda turatti. U xu qaƣda exikigǝ minip ikki ƣulami bilǝn billǝ ketiwatatti.
Kodwa uNkulunkulu wathukuthela kakhulu ngokuhamba kwakhe, ngakho ingilosi kaThixo yajama phambi kwakhe yamvimbela. UBhalamu wayegade ubabhemi wakhe elezinceku zakhe ezimbili.
23 Mada exǝk Pǝrwǝrdigarning Pǝrixtisining ⱪoliƣa ⱪiliq alƣan ⱨalda yolda turƣanliⱪini kɵrüp, yoldin qiⱪip etizliⱪ bilǝn mengiwidi, Balaam exǝkni yolƣa qiⱪip mengixⱪa dumbalap urdi.
Kwathi ubabhemi ebona ingilosi kaThixo imi endleleni iphethe inkemba esandleni sayo, waphambuka endleleni waqonda iganga. UBhalamu wamtshaya ubabhemi embuyisela endleleni.
24 Pǝrwǝrdigarning Pǝrixtisi ikki tǝripi tosma tam bilǝn tosalƣan üzümzarliⱪtiki tar bir yolda turuwaldi.
Ngakho ingilosi kaThixo yayakuma emkhandlwini phakathi kwezivini ezimbili, kulemiduli inxa zonke.
25 Exǝk Pǝrwǝrdigarning Pǝrixtisini kɵrüp, tamƣa ⱪistilip mengip, Balaamning putini tamƣa ⱪistap yarilandurup ⱪoydi; Balaam exǝkni yǝnǝ dumbalidi.
Kwathi ubabhemi ebona ingilosi kaThixo, ubabhemi wasondela emdulini, ehluzulela unyawo lukaBhalamu emdulini. Ngalokho wamtshaya njalo ubabhemi.
26 Pǝrwǝrdigarning Pǝrixtisi bolsa yǝnǝ aldiƣiraⱪ berip, ong ya solƣa buruluxⱪa bolmaydiƣan tehimu tar bir yǝrdǝ kütüp turdi.
Ngakho ingilosi kaThixo yaya phambili yema emkhandlwini onciphileyo lapho okwakungelandlela yokuphendukela kwesokudla loba esenxele.
27 Exǝk Pǝrwǝrdigarning Pǝrixtisini kɵrüp mangmay, Balaamning astida yetiwaldi; Balaam ⱪattiⱪ hapa bolup, exǝkni ⱨasisi bilǝn ⱪattiⱪ dumbalap kǝtti.
Kwathi ubabhemi ebona ingilosi kaThixo, ubabhemi walala phansi, uBhalamu wathukuthela kakhulu wamtshaya ubabhemi ngentonga yakhe.
28 Bu qaƣda Pǝrwǝrdigar exǝkkǝ zuwan kirgüzüwidi, exǝk Balaamƣa: — Meni üq ⱪetim dumbalaydiƣanƣa sanga nemǝ yamanliⱪ ⱪiptimǝn? — dewidi,
Ngalokho uThixo wavula umlomo kababhemi, wathi kuBhalamu, “Kanti ngenzeni na kuwe uze ungitshaye okwamahlandla amathathu?”
29 Balaam exǝkkǝ: — Sǝn meni sǝtlǝxtürdüng, ⱪolumda ⱪiliq bolƣan bolsa idi, seni qepip ɵltürüwetǝttim! — dedi.
UBhalamu waphendula ubabhemi wathi, “Ungenze isiwula! Ngabe bengilenkemba esandleni sami bengizakubulala khathesi.”
30 Exǝk Balaamƣa: — Mǝn seningki bolƣinimdin tartip minip kǝlgǝn exiking mǝn ǝmǝsmu? Ilgiri mǝn sanga muxundaⱪ ⱪilix aditim bolup baⱪⱪanmu? — dewidi, — Yaⱪ, — dedi [Balaam].
Ubabhemi wathi kuBhalamu, “Kanti kangisubabhemi wakho na ovele uhlezi umgada insuku zonke kuze kube namhlanje? Kambe ngiyake ngikwenze lokhu kuwe na?” UBhalamu waphendula wathi, “Hatshi.”
31 Ənǝ xu qaƣda Pǝrwǝrdigar Balaamning kɵzlirini aqti, Balaam Pǝrwǝrdigarning Pǝrixtisining ⱪiliqini ƣilipidin qiⱪirip, yolda turƣanliⱪini kɵrdi; u yǝrgǝ bexini ⱪoyup sǝjdǝ ⱪildi.
Ngakho uThixo wavula amehlo kaBhalamu, wabona ingilosi kaThixo imi endleleni iqaphise inkemba. Ngakho wakhothama wawa phansi ngobuso.
32 Pǝrwǝrdigarning Pǝrixtisi uningƣa: — Sǝn exikingni nemǝ üqün üq ⱪetim dumbalaysǝn? Ⱪariƣina, mangƣan yolung Mening nǝzirimdǝ tǝtür bolƣaqⱪa, seni tosuxⱪa qiⱪⱪuqi Mǝn Ɵzüm idim.
Ingilosi kaThixo yambuza yathi, “Kungani utshaye ubabhemi wakho okwamahlandla amathathu na? Ngize lapha ukukuvimbela ngoba indlela yakho iyibutshapha phambi kwami.
33 Exǝk Meni kɵrüp üq ⱪetim Mening aldimdin burulup kǝtti; ǝgǝr exǝk Mening aldimdin burulup kǝtmigǝn bolsa, Mǝn alliⱪaqan seni ɵltürüp exǝkni tirik ⱪaldurƣan bolattim, — dedi.
Ubabhemi ungibonile waphambuka okwamahlandla amathathu. Alubana kaphambukanga, ngabe khathesi sengikubulele wena, ngayekela ubabhemi.”
34 Balaam Pǝrwǝrdigarning Pǝrixtisigǝ: — Mǝn gunaⱨkarmǝn, Ɵzlirining yolda meni tosup turƣanliⱪlirini kɵrmǝptimǝn; mubada ǝmdi mening berixim nǝzǝrliridǝ rǝzil kɵrünsǝ, mǝn ⱪaytip ketǝy, — dedi.
UBhalamu wathi engilosini kaThixo, “Ngonile. Angizange nginanzelele ukuthi umi endleleni ukungivimbela. Nxa kungakuthokozisi khathesi, ngizabuyela emuva.”
35 Pǝrwǝrdigarning Pǝrixtisi Balaamƣa yǝnǝ: — Boptu, bu kixilǝr bilǝn billǝ barƣin, biraⱪ pǝⱪǝt Mǝn sanga degǝn sɵznila degin, — dedi. Xuning bilǝn Balaam Balaⱪning ǝmǝldarliri bilǝn billǝ mangdi.
Ingilosi kaThixo yathi kuBhalamu, “Hamba lawo lamadoda, kodwa ukhulume lokho engikutshela khona kuphela.” Ngakho uBhalamu wahamba lamakhosana kaBhalaki.
36 Balaⱪ Balaamni keliwetiptu dǝp anglap, ⱪarxi elix üqün Moabning Arnon dǝryasining boyidiki, qegrining ǝng bexidiki xǝⱨirigǝ kǝldi:
Kwathi uBhalaki esizwa ukuthi uBhalamu uyeza, waphuma ukumhlangabeza edolobheni lamaMowabi emngceleni wase-Arinoni emaphethelweni elizwe lakhe.
37 — Mǝn silini qaⱪirixⱪa xunqǝ jiddiy ǝlqi ǝwǝtkǝnidim, nemǝ üqün kelixkǝ unimidila? Mǝn silini xan-xɵⱨrǝtkǝ igǝ ⱪilalmayttimmu? — dedi Balaⱪ Balaamƣa.
UBhalaki wathi kuBhalamu, “Angikuthumelanga ilizwi lokuphangisa na? Kungani ungezanga kimi? Kambe kangenelisi ukukupha umvuzo na?”
38 — Ⱪarisila, mana kǝldimƣu, ǝmdi mǝn ɵz aldimƣa birnemǝ deyǝlǝyttimmu? — dedi Balaam, — Huda aƣzimƣa nemǝ gǝpni salsa, mǝn xunila dǝymǝn.
UBhalamu waphendula wathi, “Yebo, sengifikile kuwe khathesi. Kodwa angiyikukhuluma loba yini engiyifunayo. Ngizakhuluma lokho uNkulunkulu azakubeka emlonyeni wami kuphela.”
39 Balaam Balaⱪ bilǝn billǝ yolƣa qiⱪip Kiriat-Huzotⱪa kǝldi.
Ngakho uBhalamu wahamba loBhalaki eKhiriyathi-Huzothi.
40 Balaⱪ kala, ⱪoylarni soyup ⱪurbanliⱪ ⱪilip, ularning gɵxidin Balaam wǝ uning bilǝn billǝ bolƣan ǝmirlǝrgǝ ǝwǝtip bǝrdi.
UBhalaki wenza umhlatshelo wenkomo lezimvu, njalo ezinye wazipha uBhalamu ezinye wazipha amakhosana ayehamba lawo.
41 Andin Balaⱪ ǝtisi sǝⱨǝrdǝ Balaamni Baalning egiz jayliriƣa elip qiⱪti; u xu yǝrdin Israil hǝlⱪining ǝng qǝttiki bir ⱪismini kɵrdi.
Ekuseni ngosuku olulandelayo uBhalaki wathatha uBhalamu waya eBhamothi-Bhali, kulapho abona khona izihonqo zabako-Israyeli.
