Numbers 22 - Listen Online

¹ AWỌN ọmọ Israeli si ṣí, nwọn si dó si pẹtẹlẹ̀ Moabu li apa keji Jordani ti o kọjusi Jeriko.

¹ And the children of Israel set forward, and pitched in the plains of Moab on this side Jordan by Jericho.

² Balaki ọmọ Sippori si ri gbogbo eyiti Israeli ti ṣe si awọn ọmọ Amori.

² And Balak the son of Zippor saw all that Israel had done to the Amorites.

³ Moabu si bẹ̀ru awọn enia na gidigidi, nitoriti nwọn pọ̀: aisimi si bá Moabu nitori awọn ọmọ Israeli.

³ And Moab was sore afraid of the people, because they were many: and Moab was distressed because of the children of Israel.

⁴ Moabu si wi fun awọn àgba Midiani pe, Nisisiyi li awọn ẹgbẹ yi yio lá ohun gbogbo ti o yi wa ká, bi akọmalu ti ilá koriko igbẹ́. Balaki ọmọ Sippori si jẹ́ ọba awọn ara Moabu ni ìgba na.

⁴ And Moab said unto the elders of Midian, Now shall this company lick up all that are round about us, as the ox licketh up the grass of the field. And Balak the son of Zippor was king of the Moabites at that time.

⁵ O si ránṣẹ si Balaamu ọmọ Beori si Petori, ti o wà lẹba Odò, si ilẹ awọn ọmọ enia rẹ̀, lati pè e wá, wipe, Wò o, awọn enia kan ti ilẹ Egipti jade wá: si kiyesi i, nwọn bò oju ilẹ, nwọn si joko tì mi:

⁵ He sent messengers therefore unto Balaam the son of Beor to Pethor, which is by the river of the land of the children of his people, to call him, saying, Behold, there is a people come out from Egypt: behold, they cover the face of the earth, and they abide over against me:

⁶ Njẹ nisisiyi wa, emi bẹ̀ ọ, fi awọn enia yi bú fun mi; nitoriti nwọn lí agbara jù fun mi; bọya emi o bori, ki awa ki o kọlù wọn, ki emi ki o le lé wọn lọ kuro ni ilẹ yi: nitoriti emi mọ̀ pe ibukún ni fun ẹniti iwọ ba bukún, ifibú si ni ẹniti iwọ ba fibú.

⁶ Come now therefore, I pray thee, curse me this people; for they are too mighty for me: peradventure I shall prevail, that we may smite them, and that I may drive them out of the land: for I wot that he whom thou blessest is blessed, and he whom thou cursest is cursed.

⁷ Ati awọn àgba Moabu, ati awọn àgba Midiani dide lọ ti awọn ti ọrẹ ìbere-afọṣẹ li ọwọ́ wọn; nwọn si tọ̀ Balaamu wá, nwọn si sọ ọ̀rọ Balaki fun u.

⁷ And the elders of Moab and the elders of Midian departed with the rewards of divination in their hand; and they came unto Balaam, and spake unto him the words of Balak.

⁸ O si wi fun wọn pe, Ẹ wọ̀ nihin li alẹ yi, emi o si mú ọ̀rọ pada tọ̀ nyin wá, bi OLUWA yio ti sọ fun mi: awọn ijoye Moabu si wọ̀ sọdọ Balaamu.

⁸ And he said unto them, Lodge here this night, and I will bring you word again, as the LORD shall speak unto me: and the princes of Moab abode with Balaam.

⁹ Ọlọrun si tọ̀ Balaamu wá, o si wipe, Awọn ọkunrin wo ni wọnyi lọdọ rẹ?

⁹ And God came unto Balaam, and said, What men are these with thee?

¹⁰ Balaamu si wi fun Ọlọrun pe, Balaki ọmọ Sippori, ọba Moabu, li o ranṣẹ si mi pe,

¹⁰ And Balaam said unto God, Balak the son of Zippor, king of Moab, hath sent unto me, saying,

¹¹ Kiyesi i, awọn enia kan ti ilẹ Egipti jade wá, ti o bò oju ilẹ: wá nisisiyi, fi wọn bú fun mi; bọya emi o le bá wọn jà, emi a si lé wọn lọ.

¹¹ Behold, there is a people come out of Egypt, which covereth the face of the earth: come now, curse me them; peradventure I shall be able to overcome them, and drive them out.

¹² Ọlọrun si wi fun Balaamu pe, Iwọ kò gbọdọ bá wọn lọ; iwọ kò gbọdọ fi awọn enia na bú: nitoripe ẹni ibukún ni nwọn.

¹² And God said unto Balaam, Thou shalt not go with them; thou shalt not curse the people: for they are blessed.

¹³ Balaamu si dide li owurọ̀, o si wi fun awọn ijoye Balaki pe, Ẹ ma ba ti nyin lọ si ilẹ nyin: nitoriti OLUWA kọ̀ lati jẹ ki mbá nyin lọ.

¹³ And Balaam rose up in the morning, and said unto the princes of Balak, Get you into your land: for the LORD refuseth to give me leave to go with you.

¹⁴ Awọn ijoye Moabu si dide, nwọn si tọ̀ Balaki lọ, nwọn si wipe, Balaamu kọ̀ lati bá wa wá.

¹⁴ And the princes of Moab rose up, and they went unto Balak, and said, Balaam refuseth to come with us.

¹⁵ Balaki si tun rán awọn ijoye si i, ti o si lí ọlá jù wọn lọ.

¹⁵ And Balak sent yet again princes, more, and more honourable than they.

¹⁶ Nwọn tọ̀ Balaamu wá, nwọn si wi fun u pe, Bayi ni Balaki ọmọ Sippori wi pe, Emi bẹ̀ ọ, máṣe jẹ ki ohun kan ki o di ọ lọwọ lati tọ̀ mi wá:

¹⁶ And they came to Balaam, and said to him, Thus saith Balak the son of Zippor, Let nothing, I pray thee, hinder thee from coming unto me:

¹⁷ Nitoripe, emi o sọ ọ di ẹni nla gidigidi, emi o si ṣe ohunkohun ti iwọ wi fun mi: nitorina wá, emi bẹ̀ ọ, fi awọn enia yi bú fun mi.

¹⁷ For I will promote thee unto very great honour, and I will do whatsoever thou sayest unto me: come therefore, I pray thee, curse me this people.

¹⁸ Balaamu si dahùn o si wi fun awọn iranṣẹ Balaki pe, Balaki iba fẹ́ fun mi ni ile rẹ̀ ti o kún fun fadaká ati wurà, emi kò le rekọja ọ̀rọ OLUWA Ọlọrun mi, lati ṣe ohun kekere tabi nla.

¹⁸ And Balaam answered and said unto the servants of Balak, If Balak would give me his house full of silver and gold, I cannot go beyond the word of the LORD my God, to do less or more.

¹⁹ Njẹ nisisiyi, emi bẹ̀ nyin, ẹ wọ̀ nihin pẹlu li oru yi, ki emi ki o le mọ̀ eyiti OLUWA yio wi fun mi si i.

¹⁹ Now therefore, I pray you, tarry ye also here this night, that I may know what the LORD will say unto me more.

²⁰ Ọlọrun si tọ̀ Balaamu wá li oru, o si wi fun u pe, Bi awọn ọkunrin na ba wá pè ọ, dide, bá wọn lọ; ṣugbọn kìki ọ̀rọ ti emi o sọ fun ọ, eyinì ni ki iwọ ki o ṣe.

²⁰ And God came unto Balaam at night, and said unto him, If the men come to call thee, rise up, and go with them; but yet the word which I shall say unto thee, that shalt thou do.

²¹ Balaamu si dide li owurọ̀, o si dì kẹtẹkẹtẹ rẹ̀ ni gãri, o si bá awọn ijoye Moabu lọ.

²¹ And Balaam rose up in the morning, and saddled his ass, and went with the princes of Moab.

²² Ibinu Ọlọrun si rú nitoriti o lọ: angeli OLUWA si duro loju ọ̀na lati di i lọ̀na. Njẹ on gùn kẹtẹkẹtẹ rẹ̀, awọn iranṣẹ rẹ̀ mejeji si wà pẹlu rẹ̀.

²² And God's anger was kindled because he went: and the angel of the LORD stood in the way for an adversary against him. Now he was riding upon his ass, and his two servants were with him.

²³ Kẹtẹkẹtẹ na si ri angeli OLUWA duro loju ọ̀na, idà rẹ̀ fifàyọ si wà li ọwọ́ rẹ̀: kẹtẹkẹtẹ na si yà kuro loju ọ̀na, o si wọ̀ inu igbẹ́: Balaamu si lù kẹtẹkẹtẹ na, lati darí rẹ̀ soju ọ̀na.

²³ And the ass saw the angel of the LORD standing in the way, and his sword drawn in his hand: and the ass turned aside out of the way, and went into the field: and Balaam smote the ass, to turn her into the way.

²⁴ Nigbana ni angeli OLUWA duro li ọna toro ọgbà-àjara meji, ogiri mbẹ ni ìha ihin, ati ogiri ni ìha ọhún.

²⁴ But the angel of the LORD stood in a path of the vineyards, a wall being on this side, and a wall on that side.

²⁵ Kẹtẹkẹtẹ na si ri angeli OLUWA, o fún ara rẹ̀ mọ́ ogiri, o si fún ẹsẹ̀ Balaamu mọ́ ogiri: on si tun lù u.

²⁵ And when the ass saw the angel of the LORD, she thrust herself unto the wall, and crushed Balaam's foot against the wall: and he smote her again.

²⁶ Angeli OLUWA si tun sun siwaju, o si tun duro ni ibi tõro kan, nibiti àye kò sí lati yà si ọwọ́ ọtún tabi si òsi.

²⁶ And the angel of the LORD went further, and stood in a narrow place, where was no way to turn either to the right hand or to the left.

²⁷ Nigbati kẹtẹkẹtẹ na si ri angeli OLUWA, o wólẹ̀ labẹ Balaamu: ibinu Balaamu si rú pupọ̀, o si fi ọpá lu kẹtẹkẹtẹ na.

²⁷ And when the ass saw the angel of the LORD, she fell down under Balaam: and Balaam's anger was kindled, and he smote the ass with a staff.

²⁸ OLUWA si là kẹtẹkẹtẹ na li ohùn, o si wi fun Balaamu pe, Kini mo fi ṣe ọ, ti iwọ fi lù mi ni ìgba mẹta yi?

²⁸ And the LORD opened the mouth of the ass, and she said unto Balaam, What have I done unto thee, that thou hast smitten me these three times?

²⁹ Balaamu si wi fun kẹtẹkẹtẹ na pe, Nitoriti iwọ fi mi ṣẹsin: idà iba wà li ọwọ́ mi, nisisiyi li emi iba pa ọ.

²⁹ And Balaam said unto the ass, Because thou hast mocked me: I would there were a sword in mine hand, for now would I kill thee.

³⁰ Kẹtẹkẹtẹ na si wi fun Balaamu pe, Kẹtẹkẹtẹ rẹ ki emi ṣe, ti iwọ ti ngùn lati ìgba ti emi ti ṣe tirẹ titi di oni? emi a ha ma ṣe si ọ bẹ̃ rí? On si dahùn wipe, Ndao.

³⁰ And the ass said unto Balaam, Am not I thine ass, upon which thou hast ridden ever since I was thine unto this day? was I ever wont to do so unto thee? And he said, Nay.

³¹ Nigbana ni OLUWA là Balaamu li oju, o si ri angeli OLUWA duro loju ọ̀na, idà rẹ̀ fifàyọ si wà li ọwọ́ rẹ̀: o si tẹ̀ ori ba, o si doju rẹ̀ bolẹ.

³¹ Then the LORD opened the eyes of Balaam, and he saw the angel of the LORD standing in the way, and his sword drawn in his hand: and he bowed down his head, and fell flat on his face.

³² Angeli OLUWA si wi fun u pe, Ẽṣe ti iwọ fi lù kẹtẹkẹtẹ rẹ ni ìgba mẹta yi? Kiyesi i, emi jade wá lati di ọ lọ̀na, nitori ọ̀na rẹ lòdi niwaju mi.

³² And the angel of the LORD said unto him, Wherefore hast thou smitten thine ass these three times? behold, I went out to withstand thee, because thy way is perverse before me:

³³ Kẹtẹkẹtẹ na si ri mi, o si yà fun mi ni ìgba mẹta yi: bikoṣe bi o ti yà fun mi, pipa ni emi iba pa ọ, emi a si dá on si.

³³ And the ass saw me, and turned from me these three times: unless she had turned from me, surely now also I had slain thee, and saved her alive.

³⁴ Balaamu si wi fun angeli OLUWA pe, Emi ti ṣẹ̀; nitori emi kò mọ̀ pe iwọ duro dè mi li ọ̀na; njẹ bi kò ba ṣe didùn inu rẹ, emi o pada.

³⁴ And Balaam said unto the angel of the LORD, I have sinned; for I knew not that thou stoodest in the way against me: now therefore, if it displease thee, I will get me back again.

³⁵ Angeli OLUWA si wi fun Balaamu pe, Ma bá awọn ọkunrin na lọ: ṣugbọn kìki ọ̀rọ ti emi o sọ fun ọ, eyinì ni ki iwọ ki o sọ. Bẹ̃ni Balaamu bá awọn ijoye Balaki lọ.

³⁵ And the angel of the LORD said unto Balaam, Go with the men: but only the word that I shall speak unto thee, that thou shalt speak. So Balaam went with the princes of Balak.

³⁶ Nigbati Balaki gbọ́ pe Balaamu dé, o jade lọ ipade rẹ̀ si Ilu Moabu, ti mbẹ ni àgbegbe Arnoni, ti iṣe ipẹkun ipinlẹ na.

³⁶ And when Balak heard that Balaam was come, he went out to meet him unto a city of Moab, which is in the border of Arnon, which is in the utmost coast.

³⁷ Balaki si wi fun Balaamu pe, Emi kò ha ranṣẹ kanjukanju si ọ lati pè ọ? ẽṣe ti iwọ kò fi tọ̀ mi wá? emi kò ha to lati sọ ọ di ẹni nla?

³⁷ And Balak said unto Balaam, Did I not earnestly send unto thee to call thee? wherefore camest thou not unto me? am I not able indeed to promote thee to honour?

³⁸ Balaamu si wi fun Balaki pe, Kiyesi i, emi tọ̀ ọ wá: emi ha lí agbara kan nisisiyi rára lati wi ohun kan? ọ̀rọ ti OLUWA fi si mi li ẹnu, on li emi o sọ.

³⁸ And Balaam said unto Balak, Lo, I am come unto thee: have I now any power at all to say any thing? the word that God putteth in my mouth, that shall I speak.

³⁹ Balaamu si bá Balaki lọ, nwọn si wá si Kiriati-husotu.

³⁹ And Balaam went with Balak, and they came unto Kirjath-huzoth.

⁴⁰ Balaki si rubọ akọmalu ati agutan, o si ranṣẹ si Balaamu, ati si awọn ijoye ti mbẹ pẹlu rẹ̀.

⁴⁰ And Balak offered oxen and sheep, and sent to Balaam, and to the princes that were with him.

⁴¹ O si ṣe ni ijọ́ keji, ni Balaki mú Balaamu, o si mú u wá si ibi giga Baali, ki o ba le ri apakan awọn enia na lati ibẹ̀ lọ.

⁴¹ And it came to pass on the morrow, that Balak took Balaam, and brought him up into the high places of Baal, that thence he might see the utmost part of the people.
