Balaamu bye yalanga omukuzi ogwasooka

1Balaamu yaakoba Balaki ati: “Nzimbira ghano alutaari musanvu, era ondeetere ghano ente enume musanvu n’entaama enume musanvu.” 2Balaki yaakola nga Balaamu bweyamukoba, era bombi baagheerayo ku buli alutaari, ente enume ndala n’entaama enume ndala. 3Balaamu yaakoba Balaki ati: “Yemerera kumpi n’ekigheebwayo kyo ekyokebwa. Nze ka nje mbone oba nga Musengwa anaidha okwagaanana ninze. Era buli ky’anandholeka kyonakyona, ndidha kwira nkikukobere.” Agho yaaja yaaniina ghaigulu ku lusozi. 4Katonda yaayagaanana ni Balaamu oyo. Balaamu yaakoba Katonda ati: “Mmaze okutegeka alutaari musanvu era ku buli ndala mpeereireyo ekigheebwayo kya nte enume ndala n’entaama enume ndala.”

5Agho Musengwa Katonda yaalagira Balaamu by’anaayogera, era yaamukoba ati: “Irayo ye Balaki oyogere otyo.” 6Balaamu yaira ye Balaki, yaamwagaana ng’akaayemereire kumpi n’ekigheebwayo kye ekyokebwa, ghalala n’abakungu boonaboona aba Moabu.

7Agho Balaamu yaayogera ebibono eby’obulanzi bino, ati:

“Balaki kyabazinga wa Moabu yandheta okuva mu Aramu,

mu nsozi edh’omu buvandhuba:

Yankoba ati, ‘Idha onkolimirire aba Yakobo

idha ovumirire Abaisiraeli abo.’

8Nnaakolimira ntya oyo Katonda y’atakolimiire?

Nnaavumirira ntya oyo Musengwa y’atavumiriire?

9Mbabona nga ndi ku ngulu ku nsozi enene,

naabalengera nga ndi ku busozi obutono.

Abantu abo bali eighanga eriba lyonka,

eighanga eriteetabula na maghanga gandi.

10Naani asobola okubala baidhukulu ba Yakobo

abangi ng’oti bwa nkungu?

Oba naani asobola okumanha omughendo oguli mu kitundu obutundu ekirala

ku buli bitundu ebina eby’Abaisiraeli abo?

Leka nfe ng’abatuufu bwe bafa,

leka enkomerero yange ebe ng’ey’abatya Katonda abo bw’eba!”

11Agho Balaki yaakoba Balaamu ati: “Onkoze ki kino? Nakuleese kukolimira bazigu bange, aye kabiri iwe waabula ekindi ky’okola okutoolaku okubasabira obw’enkabi?”

12Balaamu yaamwiramu ati: “Nteekwa okwogera ebyo Musengwa Katonda by’andagira byonka.”

Balaamu bye yalanga omukuzi ogwokubiri

13Agho Balaki yaakoba Balaamu ati: “Idha tuje mu kifo ekindi gh’onaabonera abandi ku Baisiraeli abanaakuba okumpi, waire nga toobabone boonaboona. Memale olwo obankolimirire ng’oli eyo.” 14Yaamutwala mu musiri gwa Zofimu ku ngulu okw’olusozi Pisiga. Yaazimba alutaari musanvu era yaagheerayo ku buli ndala ente enume n’entaama enume.

15Balaamu yaakoba Balaki ati: “Yemerera kumpi n’ekigheebwayo kyo ekyokebwa, nze nje ere ndhagaanane ni Musengwa Katonda.” 16Musengwa Katonda yaayagaanana ni Balaamu era yaamulagira by’anaayogera. Yaamukoba ati: “Irayo ye Balaki oyogere otyo.” 17Balaamu yaira ye Balaki, yaamwagaana ng’akaayemereire kumpi n’ekigheebwayo kye ekyokebwa, ghalala n’abakungu aba Moabu. Balaki yaamubuuza ati: “Musengwa akobye ki?” 18Agho Balaamu yaayogera ebibono eby’obulanzi bino, ati:

“Balaki, idha owulire,

ntegera kutu, iwe mutabane wa Zippori.

19Katonda talimba, aye abantu balimba;

Katonda takyuka, aye abantu bakyuka.

Ky’akoba taloba kukikola;

ky’ayogera taloba kukituukiriza.

20Bona eno, Katonda yandagira okusabira abantu enkabi.

Kale Katonda bw’agha enkabi, nze ekyo ti kikyusaamu naire.

21Ghazira kikyamu kinaidhira bantu ba Yakobo,

ghazira kizibu kinaatuuka ku Baisiraeli abo.

Musengwa Katonda waibwe aba ghalala nabo,

baayatula nga bw’ali kyabazinga waibwe.

22Beesiga Katonda oyo eyabatoola mu Misiri,

ng’oti n’embogo bweyeesiga amayiga gaayo.

23Ghazira irogo lisobola kulumya ba Yakobo,

ghazira kulagula kusobola kutuusa kabi ku Baisiraeli abo.

Okutoolaku abantu baidhanga kwogera ku Baisiraeli abo,

bati, ‘Katonda ng’abakoleire eby’amaani!’

24Bona eighanga eryo! Lisituka ng’oti mpologoma nkazi,

lyebbeeda ng’oti mpologoma nume.

Tiriwuumula nga tirituukiriiza kigendererwa kyalyo,

ng’oti n’empologoma bwetawuumula nga temaze kuvaabira omuyiigo gwayo, n’okunhwa

omusaayi gw’ekyo ky’eise.”

25Agho Balaki yaakoba Balaamu ati: “Nga bw’olobye okubakolimira, n’enkabi otabasabira.”

26Aye Balaamu yaamwiramu ati: “Tyakukobeire nti kyonakyona Musengwa ky’anankoba kye nteekwa okukola?”

Balaamu bye yalanga omukuzi ogwokusatu

27Kabiri Balaki yaakoba Balaamu ati: “Mpegaano idha, ka nkutwale mu kifo ekindi, oba katyo Katonda anaikiriza okukuleka waabankolimirira eyo.” 28Kale yaatwala Balaamu oyo ghaigulu ku lusozi Peori olulingiriire eirungu. 29Balaamu yaakoba Balaki ati: “Nzimbira ghano alutaari musanvu, era ondeetere ghano ente enume musanvu n’entaama enume musanvu.” 30Balaki yaakola nga Balaamu bweyamukoba, yaagheerayo ku buli alutaari ente enume ndala n’entaama enume ndala.
