Numbers 24
1 And when Balaam saw that it pleased the LORD to bless Israel, he went not, as at other times, to seek for enchantments, but he set his face toward the wilderness.
Idi nakita ni Balaam a naay-ayo ni Yaweh a mangbendision iti Israel, saanen a napan isuna a mangaramat iti pananggamod, a kas iti dadduma a tiempo. Kimmita ketdi isuna iti let-ang.
2 And Balaam lifted up his eyes, and he saw Israel abiding [in his tents] according to their tribes, and the spirit of God came upon him.
Inngatona ti panagkitana ket nakitana dagiti nagkampo nga Israelita tunggal maysa iti bukodda a tribu, ket immay kenkuana ti Espiritu ti Dios.
3 And he took up his parable, and said, Balaam the son of Beor hath said, and the man whose eyes are open hath said:
Naawatna daytoy a padto ket kinunana, “Ni Balaam nga anak ni Beor ket agsao, ti tao a simumulagat.
4 He hath said, who heard the words of God, who saw the vision of the Almighty, falling [into a trance], but having his eyes open:
Agsasao isuna ken dengdenggenna dagiti sasao ti Dios. Adda makitkitana a parmata manipud iti Mannakabalin-amin a pagrukbabanna kabayatan a simumulagat.
5 How goodly are thy tents, O Jacob, [and] thy tabernacles, O Israel!
Anian a nagpintas dagiti toldam, Jacob, ti lugar a pagnaedam, Israel!
6 As the valleys are they spread forth, as gardens by the river's side, as the trees of lign-aloes which the LORD hath planted, [and] as cedar-trees beside the waters.
Kasla dagiti tantanap a nagwaras, kasla iti minuyongan iti igid ti karayan, kasla al-aloe nga immula ni Yahweh, kasla sedsedro iti igid ti kadandanuman.
7 He shall pour the water out of his buckets, and his seed [shall be] in many waters, and his king shall be higher than Agag, and his kingdom shall be exalted.
Agluppiasto ti danum kadagiti timbada ken nasibugan a nasayaat ti bukelda. Nangatngatonto ti arida ngem ni Agag, ken mapadayawanto ti pagarianda.
8 God brought him forth from Egypt; he hath as it were the strength of a unicorn: he shall eat up the nations his enemies, and shall break their bones, and pierce [them] through with his arrows.
Iruar isuna ti Dios manipud Egipto. Addaan isuna iti pigsa a kasla atap a baka. Alun-onenna dagiti nasion a mangrangranget kenkuana. Tuktukolenna dagiti tultulangda. Panaenna ida.
9 He couched, he lay down as a lion, and as a great lion: who shall rouse him? Blessed [is] he that blesseth thee, and cursed [is] he that curseth thee.
Kumleb isuna a kasla leon, kasla iti kabaian a leon. Siasino ti makaitured a mangsinga kenkuana? Mabendisionan koma amin a mangbendision kenkuana; mailunod koma amin a mangilunod kenkuana.”
10 And Balak's anger was kindled against Balaam, and he smote his hands together: and Balak said to Balaam, I called thee to curse my enemies, and behold, thou hast altogether blessed [them] these three times.
Narubroban ti unget ni Balak maibusor kenni Balaam, ket nangmesmes isuna iti ungetna. Kinuna ni Balak kenni Balaam, “Inayabanka tapno ilunodmo dagiti kabusorko, ngem adtoy, binendisionam ida iti namitlo.
11 Therefore now flee thou to thy place: I thought to promote thee to great honor; but lo, the LORD hath kept thee back from honor.
Isu a panawannakon ita ket agawidkan. Kinunak gunggonaanka iti dakkel, ngem saan nga impalubos ni Yahweh a makaalaka iti aniaman a gunggona.”
12 And Balaam said to Balak, Did I not speak also to thy messengers whom thou sentest to me, saying,
Ket simmungbat ni Balaam kenni Balak, “Imbagak kadagiti mensahero nga imbaonmo kaniak,
13 If Balak would give me his house full of silver and gold, I could not go beyond the commandment of the LORD, to do [either] good or bad of my own mind; [but] what the LORD saith, that will I speak?
'Uray no inted kaniak ni Balak ti palasiona a napno iti pirak ken balitok, saanko a mabalin nga un-unaan ti sao ni Yahweh ken aniaman a dakes wenno naimbag, wenno aniaman a kayatko nga aramiden. Ti laeng ibagak ket ti ibagbaga ni Yahweh nga ibagak.' Saan kadi nga imbagak daytoy kadakuada?
14 And now, behold, I go to my people: come [therefore], I will advertise thee what this people will do to thy people in the latter days.
Isu nga ita, adtoy, agsubliak kadagiti tattaok. Ngem ballaaganka nga umuna maipapan iti aramiden dagitoy a tattao kadagiti tattaom kadagiti masungad nga al-aldaw.”
15 And he took up his parable, and said, Balaam the son of Beor hath said, and the man whose eyes are open hath said:
Rinugian ni Balaam daytoy a padto. Kinunana, “Agsasao ni Balaam nga anak ni Beor, ti tao a nakamulagat dagiti matana.
16 He hath said, who heard the words of God, and knew the knowledge of the Most High, [who] saw the vision of the Almighty, falling [into a trance], but having his eyes open:
Daytoy ket padto ti maysa a tao a dumdumngeg kadagiti sasao manipud iti Dios, nga addaan pannakaammo manipud iti Kangangatoan, nga addaan kadagiti parmata manipud iti Mannakabalin-amin, nakapakleb a nakamulagat isuna iti sangoananna.
17 I shall see him, but not now: I shall behold him, but not nigh: there shall come a Star out of Jacob, and a Scepter shall rise out of Israel, and shall smite the corners of Moab, and destroy all the children of Sheth.
Makitkitak isuna, ngem awan isuna ditoy ita. Makitkitak isuna, ngem awan isuna iti asideg. Tumaudto ti bituen manipud kenni Jacob, ken addanto setro a rumuar manipud iti Israel. Burakennanto dagiti mangidadaulo iti Moab ken dadaelennanto dagiti amin a kaputotan ni Set.
18 And Edom shall be a possession, Seir also shall be a possession for his enemies; and Israel shall do valiantly.
Ket kukuanton ti Israel ti Edom, ken kukuadanto pay ti Seir, dagiti kabusor ti Israel a parmekento ti Israel babaen iti puersa.
19 Out of Jacob shall come he that shall have dominion, and shall destroy him that remaineth of the city.
Agtaudto kenni Jacob ti maysa nga ari a mangituray ken dadaelennanto dagiti amin a nabati a sibibiag iti siudadda.”
20 And when he looked on Amalek, he took up his parable, and said, Amalek [was] the first of the nations, but his latter end [shall be] that he shall perish for ever.
Kalpasanna, kimmita ni Balaam iti Amalec ket rinugianna ti padtona. Kinunana, “Ti Amalec idi ti maysa a kabibilgan kadagiti nasion ngem ti kamaudiananna ket pannakadadael.”
21 And he looked on the Kenites, and took up his parable, and said, Strong is thy dwelling-place, and thou puttest thy nest in a rock.
Kalpasanna, kimmita ni Balaam kadagiti Kineo, ket rinugianna ti padtona. Kinunana, “Natibker ti lugar a pagnanaedanyo, ken adda kadagiti dadakkel a batbato ti umokyo.
22 Nevertheless, the Kenite shall be wasted, until Asher shall carry thee away captive.
Nupay kasta, madadael ti Kineo, inton italawdakayo a kas balud dagiti Asirio.
23 And he took up his parable, and said, Alas, who shall live when God doeth this!
Ket rinugian ni Balaam ti maudi a padtona. Kinunana, “Asi kay pay! Siasino ti makalasat inton aramiden ti Dios daytoy?
24 And ships [shall come] from the coast of Chittim, and shall afflict Ashur, and shall afflict Eber, and he also shall perish for ever.
Umayto dagiti daong manipud iti baybay Kittim; rautendanto ti Asiria ken maparmekto ti Eber, ngem uray isuda ket aggibusdanto iti pannakadadael.”
25 And Balaam arose, and went and returned to his place: and Balak also went his way.
Kalpasanna, timmakder ni Balaam ket pimmanaw. Nagsubli isuna iti pagtaenganna, ken pimmanaw met ni Balak.
