1Balaamu bweyamala okutegeera nga Musengwa amwendeza kusabira Baisiraeli nkabi, yaaloba kuja kwebuuzaaku nga bweyakola ku mikuzi gire egindi. Aye yaalingiriza bwa maiso ge eri eirungu, 2yaabona Abaisiraeli nga basimbye weema dhaibwe, ng’ebika byaibwe bwe biiraganwaku. Agho omwoyo gwa Katonda gwamwidhaku, 3yaayogera ebibono eby’obulanzi bino, ati:

“Bino n’ebibono bya Balaamu mutabane wa Beori,

ebibono eby’omuntu abona obukalamu.

4Bino n’ebibono by’oyo awulira Katonda by’ayogera,

ebibono by’oyo atenduka aye n’asigala ng’amoga,

n’abona okubonekerwa kw’oyo Aghanga Ebintu Byonabyona.

5Weema dhaimwe, imwe aba Yakobo,

n’ebifo imwe Abaisiraeli ghe musula, bikalamu!

6Ebifo ebyo biri ng’oti biiko ebyegolomoire,

era ng’oti nimiro edhiri ku mbali okw’omwiga.

Biri ng’oti miti egiri n’akawoowo k’alowe, Musengwa gye yasimba

era ng’oti mivule egiri kumpi n’amaadhi.

7Amaadhi gaidha kubagwiranga mangi,

ensigo dhaibwe dhibenga mu nimiro edhifukiriirwa obukalamu.

Kyabazinga waibwe aidha kubanga mukologho okusinga kyabazinga Agagi,

n’obwakyabazinga bwe bwidha kugheebwanga ekitiisa.

8Beesiga Katonda oyo eyabatoola mu Misiri

ng’oti n’embogo bweyeesiga amayiga gaayo.

Baidha kweyangagho amaghanga ag’abazigu baibwe,

bamenhemenhenga amagumba gaibwe,

babafumitenga n’obulaso bwaibwe.

9Babwama era baalambaala ng’oti mpologoma.

Naani akana okubasitusa?

Kiisi asabira Abaisiraeli abo enkabi,

yeena agheebwenga enkabi.

Kiisi abakolimira, yeena akolimirwenga.” 24:9: Mainh 12:3; 49:9

10Agho Balaki yaasungughalira inho Balaamu, era yaakuba mu ngalo bukiika, ng’amukoba ati: “Nakwese oidhe okolimire abazigu bange, aye bona obasabire bwa nkabi emikuzi gino esatu! 11Kale ni, mperaano lumuka oireyo ewuwo. Nali nkusuubiiza okukuleetera okuba ow’ekitiibwa, aye Musengwa Katonda akulemeisa.”

12Balaamu yaidhusa Balaki ati: “Tyakobera bakwenda be wantumira nti, 13‘Waire Balaki ampa endhu ye ng’eidhwire feeza ni zaabu, tighanga kuva ku kiragiro kya Musengwa Katonda, ni nkola kyange ku bwange, ka kibe ekirungi oba ekibi? Era nti, Musengwa ky’anankoba kyonka kye ndidha okwogera?’ 14Mperaano ndi kwirayo mu bantu bange. Aye bona eno, ka nkukobere abantu abo Abaisiraeli kye balikola abantu bo mu biseera eby’oluvainhuma.” 15Agho yaayogera ebibono eby’obulanzi bino, ati:

“Bino n’ebibono bya Balaamu mutabane wa Beori,

ebibono eby’omuntu abona obukalamu.

16Bino n’ebibono by’oyo awulira Katonda by’ayogera,

n’amanha amagezi g’oyo Ali Ghaigulu Yeene,

era atenduka aye n’asigala ng’amoga, n’abona okubonekerwa

kw’oyo Aghanga Ebintu Byonabyona.

17Bwe ningirira ye bwidha eyo, mbona Abaisiraeli abo,

aye ti nga bwe bali mperaano.

Kyabazinga alisituka mu Yakobo

ng’oti n’emuunienie bw’evaayo,

ng’ogwo n’omwigo ogw’obwakyabazinga oguja okusimuka mu Baisiraeli abo.

Alisasambula abakulembeze b’e Moabu,

era yaasaaniagho abaana ba Shethi boonaboona.

18Alighangula abazigu be mu Edomu,

yeiriza ensi yaibwe Seiri,

eno ng’Abaisiraeli bwe beeyongera okuba abaghanguzi.

19Oyo asimuka mu ba Yakobo aliba mufuzi,

era alizikiriza abaliba basigaire mu bibuga.”

20Agho Balaamu ng’akaali mu kubonekerwa, yaabona Abamaleki era yaayogera ebibono eby’obulanzi bino, ati:

“Abamaleki n’eighanga eryali lisinga agandi goonagoona,

aye ku nkomerero lija kuzikirizibwa.”

21Era ng’akaali mu kubonekerwa, yaabona Abakeni era yaayogera ebibono eby’obulanzi bino, ati:

“Ekifo kye mubaamu kigumu,

kiri ng’oti n’ekisu ekyazimbibwa mu ibaale.

22Aye era imwe Abakeni mulizikirira,

Abasshuri balibatwala mu bunhage.”

23Kabiri Balaamu oyo yaayogera ebibono eby’obulanzi bino, ati:

“Tukagwireku! Naani alisigalagho nga mulamu,

nga Katonda akoze ekyo?

24Abalwani baliidhira mu maato okuva e Kittimu,

baalumba Abasshuri n’Abaeberi,

aye era boona balizikirizibwa.”

25Agho Balaamu yaasitula yairayo ewaibwe, Balaki yeena yaaja mu dhidhe.
