Nambar 24
Asang Khongca Bible (Eastern Khumi Chin, 2019)
King James Version with Apocrypha
1Angraeng mah Israel kaminawk tahamhoihaih paek han koeh, tito Balaam mah panoek naah, hmacawnhaih hnuk hanah, canghniah caeh ih baktih toengah caeh ai ah, a mikhmai to praezaek bangah paqoi ving.
1And 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.
2Balaam mah khet naah, angmacae acaeng maeto pacoeng maeto nawnto amkhueng Israel kaminawk to a hnuk; to naah Sithaw ih Muithla a nuiah phak.
2And 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.
3Anih mah taphong han ih patahhaih lok to lak moe, mik amtueng, Beor capa Balaam ih lok;
3And he took up his parable, and said, Balaam the son of Beor hath said, and the man whose eyes are open hath said:
4long ah amtimh pacoengah, mik kamtueng, thacak Angraeng hnuksakhaih hnukung, Sithaw mah thuih ih lok thaih kami mah thuih ih lok loe,
4He hath said, which heard the words of God, which saw the vision of the Almighty, falling into a trance , but having his eyes open:
5Aw Jakob, na ohhaih imnawk loe kawkruk maw hoih, Aw Israel, na kahni im loe kawkruk maw hoih!
5How goodly are thy tents, O Jacob, and thy tabernacles, O Israel!
6Nang loe kawk parai azawnnawk, tuipui taengah kaom takhanawk, Angraeng mah thling ih thingnawk hoi tui taengah amprawk sidar thingnawk baktiah na oh o.
6As 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.
7Anih loe a tui tabu thung hoiah tui to krai ueloe, anih ih aanmunawk loe kapop tui ahmuen ah krah o tih; anih ih siangpahrang loe Agag pongah len kue ueloe, a ukhaih prae doeh kasang ah pakoehhaih om tih.
7He 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.
8Sithaw mah anih to Izip prae thung hoiah zaeh, anih loe kokno baktiah thacak; anih mah a misa ah kaom prae kaminawk to paaeh ueloe, nihcae ih ahuhnawk to khaek pae tih; angmah ih kalii hoiah nihcae to kat tih.
8God brought him forth out of Egypt; he hath as it were the strength of an unicorn: he shall eat up the nations his enemies, and shall break their bones, and pierce them through with his arrows.
9Anih loe kaipui baktiah caeh moe, kalen kaipui baktiah tabok; anih to mi mah maw pathawk thai tih? Nang tahamhoihaih paek kami loe, tahamhoihaih tongh ueloe, nang tangoeng kami loe tangoeng ah om tih, tiah a naa.
9He couched, he lay down as a lion, and as a great lion: who shall stir him up? Blessed is he that blesseth thee, and cursed is he that curseth thee.
10Balak mah Balaam to palungphui thuih, a ban tabaeng phang pacoengah, Balak mah Balaam khaeah, Ka misanawk tangoeng hanah kang kawk, toe khenah, nihcae to vai thumto tahamhoihaih na paek lat.
10¶ And Balak’s anger was kindled against Balaam, and he smote his hands together: and Balak said unto Balaam, I called thee to curse mine enemies, and, behold, thou hast altogether blessed them these three times.
11To pongah vaihi na ohhaih ahmuen ah cawn lai ah; nang hae kasang ah kang suek han, tiah poekhaih ka tawnh; toe khenah, to tiah oh han ai ah Angraeng mah pakaa ving boeh, tiah a naa.
11Therefore now flee thou to thy place: I thought to promote thee unto great honour; but, lo, the LORD hath kept thee back from honour.
12Balaam mah Balak khaeah, Nang patoeh ih laicaehnawk khaeah,
12And Balaam said unto Balak, Spake I not also to thy messengers which thou sentest unto me, saying,
13Balak mah sui hoi sum kanglung koimongah suek ih angmah ih siangpahrang im to na paek langlacadoeh, Angraeng mah paek ih lok pong kamtlai ah, kasae hmuen ah maw, to tih ai boeh loe kahoih hmuen ah maw, ka poekhaih to ka thui cop mak ai; Angraeng mah thuih ih lok khue ni ka thuih han, tiah ka thuih boeh na ai maw?
13If Balak would give me his house full of silver and gold, I cannot go beyond the commandment of the LORD , to do either good or bad of mine own mind; but what the LORD saith, that will I speak?
14Khenah, vaihi loe kaimah ih kaminawk khaeah ka caeh han boeh; to pongah angzo ah; hae kaminawk mah hmabang ah nang ih kaminawk nuiah timaw sah o tih, tito kang thuih han, tiah a naa.
14And now, behold, I go unto my people: come therefore, and I will advertise thee what this people shall do to thy people in the latter days.
15Anih mah taphong han ih patahhaih lok to lak moe, mik kamtueng, Beor capa Balaam mah thuih ih lok;
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:
16long ah amtimh pacoengah, mik kamtueng, thacak Angraeng hnuksakhaih hnukung, Kasang koek Sithaw palunghahaih panoekkung mah thuih ih lok loe,
16He hath said, which heard the words of God, and knew the knowledge of the most High, which saw the vision of the Almighty, falling into a trance , but having his eyes open:
17anih to ka hnu tih, toe vaihi ka hnu mak ai vop; anih to ka khet han, toe atue loe anghnai ai vop; Jakob acaeng thung hoiah cakaeh maeto tacawt ueloe, Israel thung hoiah angraeng cunghet maeto angthawk tahang tih; anih mah Moab prae taki taket khoek to tuh ueloe, Sheth capanawk to amrosak boih tih.
17I shall see him, but not now: I shall behold him, but not nigh: there shall come a Star out of Jacob, and a Sceptre shall rise out of Israel, and shall smite the corners of Moab, and destroy all the children of Sheth.
18Edom prae to la ueloe, Seir mae doeh anih ih misanawk mah la o tih; toe Israel loe misahoihaih hoiah thacak aep aep tih.
18And Edom shall be a possession, Seir also shall be a possession for his enemies; and Israel shall do valiantly.
19Jakob thung hoiah ukkung maeto tacawt ueloe, vangpui thungah anghmat kaminawk to hum tih, tiah a naa.
19Out of Jacob shall come he that shall have dominion, and shall destroy him that remaineth of the city.
20Balaam mah Amalek to khet moe, patahhaih lok to a thuih; acaeng kaminawk boih thungah Amalek loe hmaloe koek ah oh; toe anih loe hnukkhuem koek ah amro tih, tiah a naa.
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 perish for ever.
21To pacoengah Ken kaminawk to a khet moe, patahhaih lok to a thuih; na ohhaih ahmuen loe caak moe, tabu doeh lungsong nuiah na boh,
21And he looked on the Kenites, and took up his parable, and said, Strong is thy dwellingplace, and thou puttest thy nest in a rock.
22toe Ken kaminawk loe, Ashur ukkung mah tamna ah naeh ueloe, anghma angtaa o tih.
22Nevertheless the Kenite shall be wasted, until Asshur shall carry thee away captive.
23To pacoengah taphong han ih patahhaih lok to lak moe, Ala, Sithaw mah hae hmuen sak naah mi maw hing thai tih?
23And he took up his parable, and said, Alas, who shall live when God doeth this!
24Kittim tui taeng hoiah palongpuinawk angzo o ueloe, nihcae mah Asshur hoi Eber to pazawk tih; toe angmacae doeh amro tih, tiah a naa.
24And ships shall come from the coast of Chittim, and shall afflict Asshur, and shall afflict Eber, and he also shall perish for ever.
25Balaam loe angthawk tahang moe, angmah im ah amlaem, to pacoengah Balak doeh angmah ih loklam ah caeh toeng.
25And Balaam rose up, and went and returned to his place: and Balak also went his way.
