4 Mose 22 FHB Father's Heart Bible™

22 ¹Afei Israelfo tuu kwan kɔbɔɔ nsraban wɔ Moab asase tamaa so wɔ Yordan agya, wɔ Yeriko anim. ²Afei Sipor ba Balak huu biribiara a Israel ayɛ Amorifo no. ³Moab suroo nnipa no yiye, efisɛ na wɔdɔɔso; Israelfo ho hu kaa Moab. ⁴Moab ka kyerɛɛ Midian mpanyimfo se, “Saa nnipakuw yi bɛtafere biribiara a atwa yɛn ho ahyia no, sɛnea nantwi tafere wura so sare no.” Saa bere no na Sipor ba Balak yɛ Moab hene.

⁵Ɔsomaa abɔfo kɔɔ Beor ba Bileam nkyɛn wɔ Petor, a ɛbɛn Asubɔnten Eufrate wɔ ne nkurɔfo asase so, sɛ wɔnkɔfrɛ no. Ɔkae se, “Hwɛ, nnipa bi afi Misraim aba. Hwɛ, wɔakata asase ani, na wɔatena ase wɔ mʼanim. ⁶Mesrɛ wo, bra bɛdome nnipa yi ma me—wɔn ahoɔden sen me. Ebia, afei mɛtumi abɔ wɔn agu, na mapam wɔn afi asase no so, efisɛ minim sɛ: obiara a wohyira no no, wɔahyira no, na obiara a wodome no no, wɔadome no.”

⁷Moab mpanyimfo ne Midian mpanyimfo no kɔe a wɔkura abisa akatua wɔ wɔn nsa mu, na wɔbaa Bileam nkyɛn bɛkaa Balak nsɛm no kyerɛɛ no.

⁸Ɔka kyerɛɛ wɔn se, “Muntena ha anadwo yi, na mede asɛm bɛbrɛ mo sɛnea Onyankopɔn bɛka akyerɛ me no.” Enti Moab ahemfo no ne Bileam tenaa hɔ.

⁹Afei yɛn Agya baa Bileam nkyɛn bɛkae se, “Saa mmarima a wɔka wo ho yi yɛ hwan ne hwan?”

¹⁰Bileam ka kyerɛɛ yɛn Agya se, “Moab hene, Sipor ba Balak, de asɛm yi abrɛ me se: ¹¹Hwɛ, nnipa a wɔfi Misraim bae no akata asase ani. Afei bra bɛdome wɔn ma me—ebia mɛtumi ne wɔn ako, na mapam wɔn.”

¹²Nanso yɛn Agya ka kyerɛɛ Bileam se, “Wo ne wɔn nkɔ. Nnome nnipa no, efisɛ wɔahyira wɔn.”

¹³Bileam sɔree anɔpa no ka kyerɛɛ Balak ahemfo no se, “Monsan nkɔ mo asase so—Onyankopɔn ampene sɛ me ne mo bɛkɔ.”

¹⁴Moab ahemfo no sɔree, kɔɔ Balak nkyɛn kae se, “Bileam ampene sɛ ɔne yɛn bɛba.”

¹⁵Afei Balak somaa ahemfo bio—wɔn dodow sen kan de no, na wɔwɔ anuonyam sen wɔn. ¹⁶Wɔbaa Bileam nkyɛn bɛka kyerɛɛ no se, “Sipor ba Balak se: Mma biribiara nsiw wo kwan sɛ wobɛba me nkyɛn, ¹⁷efisɛ mɛhyɛ wo anuonyam yiye, na biribiara a wobɛka akyerɛ me no, mɛyɛ. Enti mesrɛ wo, bra bɛdome nnipa yi ma me.”

¹⁸Bileam buaa Balak nkoa no se, “Sɛ Balak de ne fi a dwetɛ ne sika ahyɛ mu ma ma me mpo a, merentumi ntra Onyankopɔn ahyɛde so, sɛ mɛyɛ ade ketewa anaa kɛse. ¹⁹Afei mesrɛ mo, mo nso muntena ha anadwo yi, na mahu nea yɛn Agya bɛka bio akyerɛ me.”

²⁰Na yɛn Agya baa Bileam nkyɛn anadwo bɛka kyerɛɛ no se, “Esiane sɛ mmarima yi aba sɛ wɔrebɛfrɛ wo nti, sɔre na wo ne wɔn kɔ, nanso nea mɛka akyerɛ wo nko ara na yɛ.”

²¹Enti Bileam sɔree anɔpa, de akatado guu nʼafurum so, na ɔne Moab ahemfo no kɔe.

Yɛn Agya Nam Afurum So Kasa

²²Nanso yɛn Agya bo fuw yiye, efisɛ ɔkɔe, na yɛn Agya bɔfo gyinaa kwan no mu sɛ Bileam tamfo. Na Bileam te nʼafurum so, na ne nkoa baanu ka ne ho. ²³Afurum no huu yɛn Agya bɔfo no sɛ ogyina kwan no mu, na ne nkrante a watwe no kura ne nsa mu, na afurum no mane fii kwan no so kɔɔ wura mu. Enti Bileam boroo afurum no sɛ ɔde no bɛsan aba kwan no so. ²⁴Afei yɛn Agya bɔfo no kogyinaa kwan teateaa bi so wɔ bobe nturo ntam, a ɔfasu wɔ nkyɛn biara. ²⁵Afurum no huu yɛn Agya bɔfo no, na ɔpemee ne ho kɔhyɛɛ ɔfasu no ho, na ɔde Bileam nan kɔpemee ɔfasu no; enti Bileam boroo no bio.

²⁶Yɛn Agya bɔfo no kɔɔ anim kogyinaa baabi a ɛyɛ teaa a kwan nni hɔ sɛ obi bɛdan akɔ nifa anaa benkum. ²⁷Bere a afurum no huu yɛn Agya bɔfo no no, ɔdedaa fam wɔ Bileam ase; Bileam bo fuw, na ɔde ne poma boroo no.

²⁸Afei yɛn Agya buee afurum no ano, na afurum no ka kyerɛɛ Bileam se, “Dɛn na mayɛ wo a enti woaboro me mprɛnsa yi?”

²⁹Bileam ka kyerɛɛ afurum no se, “Woadi me ho fɛw! Sɛ anka nkrante wɔ me nsa mu a, anka mekum wo seesei.”

³⁰Afurum no ka kyerɛɛ Bileam se, “Ɛnyɛ me ne wʼafurum a woatra me so wo nkwa nna nyinaa de besi nnɛ yi? Mayɛ wo saa pɛn?” Ɔkae se, “Dabi.”

³¹Afei yɛn Agya buee Bileam aniwa, na ohuu yɛn Agya bɔfo sɛ ogyina kwan no mu, na ne nkrante a watwe no kura ne nsa mu; na Bileam kotow, de nʼanim butuw fam.

³²Yɛn Agya bɔfo no ka kyerɛɛ no se, “Adɛn nti na woaboro wʼafurum mprɛnsa? Mafi aba sɛ wo tamfo, efisɛ wo kwan yɛ basabasa wɔ mʼanim. ³³Afurum no huu me, na ɔdan fii me so mprɛnsa yi. Sɛ wanndan amfi me so a, anka maku wo dedaw, na anka magye ne nkwa.”

³⁴Bileam ka kyerɛɛ yɛn Agya bɔfo no se, “Mayɛ bɔne—mennim sɛ wogyina kwan no mu resiw me kwan. Afei sɛ eyi nyɛ wʼani so a, mɛsan.”

³⁵Yɛn Agya bɔfo no ka kyerɛɛ Bileam se, “Wo ne mmarima no kɔ, nanso nea mɛka akyerɛ wo nko ara na ka.” Enti Bileam ne Balak ahemfo no toaa so kɔe.

³⁶Bere a Balak tee sɛ Bileam reba no, ɔfirii adi kohyiaa no wɔ Moab kurow a ɛwɔ Arnon hye so no mu, wɔ hye no ano pɛɛ. ³⁷Balak ka kyerɛɛ Bileam se, “So mansoma ntɛm amfrɛ wo? Adɛn nti na wamma me nkyɛn? So ampa ara mentumi nhyɛ wo anuonyam?”

³⁸Bileam ka kyerɛɛ Balak se, “Hwɛ, maba wo nkyɛn afei—nanso so mɛtumi aka biribiara kɛkɛ? Nea Onyankopɔn de bɛhyɛ mʼanom nko ara na metumi aka.”

³⁹Enti Bileam ne Balak kɔe, na wɔduu Kiriat-Husot. ⁴⁰Balak de anantwi ne nguan bɔɔ afɔre, na ɔde bi kɔmaa Bileam ne ahemfo a wɔka ne ho no. ⁴¹Anɔpa no, Balak de Bileam foroo kɔɔ Bamot-Baal, na ofi hɔ no, ohuu nnipa no ano.
