Baibala Hemolele (Hawaiian Bible, 1868 revision)
JPS Tanakh (Jewish Publication Society, 1917)
1I AKU ia o Balaama ia Balaka, E hana oe no'u maanei i mau kuahu ehiku; e hoomakaukau hoi oe no'u i na bipikane ehiku a me na hipakane ehiku.
1And Balaam said unto Balak: 'Build me here seven altars, and prepare me here seven bullocks and seven rams.'
2Hana iho la o Balaka e like me ka Balaama i olelo aku ai; a mohai aku la o Balaka laua o Balaama ma kela kuahu ma keia kuahu i ka bipikane hookahi a me ka hipakane hookahi.
2And Balak did as Balaam had spoken; and Balak and Balaam offered on every altar a bullock and a ram.
3I aku la o Balaama ia Balaka, E ku iho oe ma kau mohaikuni, a e hele aku wau; malia paha e hele mai no o Iehova e halawai mo au: a o ka mea ana e hoike mai ai ia'u, oia ka'u o hai aku ai ia oe. A hele aku la ia i kahi kiekie.
3And Balaam said unto Balak: 'Stand by thy burnt-offering, and I will go; peradventure the LORD will come to meet me; and whatsoever He showeth me I will tell thee.' And he went to a bare height.
4A halawai mai la ke Akua me Balaama; i aku la hoi oia ia ia, Ua hoomakaukau no wau i na kuahu ehiku, ua mohai aku hoi au i ka bipikane a me ka hipakane maluna o kela kuahu o keia kuahu.
4And God met Balaam; and he said unto Him: 'I have prepared the seven altars, and I have offered up a bullock and a ram on every altar.'
5Waiho mai la o Iehova i wahi olelo ma ka waha o Balaama, i mai la, O hoi oe io Balaka la, a penei kau e olelo aku ai.
5And the LORD put a word in Balaam's mouth, and said: 'Return unto Balak, and thus thou shalt speak.'
6A hoi hou ae la ia io na la: aia hoi, e ku ana oia ma kana mohaikuni, oia a me na luna a pau o Moaba.
6And he returned unto him, and, lo, he stood by his burnt-offering, he, and all the princes of Moab.
7Hapai ae la ia i kana olelonane, i aku la, Na Balaka ke alii o Moaba au i lawe mai nei Mai Arama mai, mai na mauna o ka hikina; E hele mai, e hoino no'u i ka Iakoba, E hele mai, e hoohewa aku i ka Iseraela.
7And he took up his parable, and said: From Aram Balak bringeth me, the king of Moab from the mountains of the East: 'Come, curse me Jacob, and come, execrate Israel.'
8Pehea la au e hoino ai i ka ke Akua i hoino ole ai? Pehea la hoi au e hoohewa ai i ka Iehova i hoohewa ole ai?
8How shall I curse, whom God hath not cursed? And how shall I execrate, whom the LORD hath not execrated?
9No ka mea, maluna o na pali ka'u e ike aku nei ia ia; Maluna hoi o na puu a'u e nana aku nei ia ia; Aia hoi, e noho kaawale ia poe kanaka, Aole hoi e huiia'ku me na lahuikanaka.
9For from the top of the rocks I see him, and from the hills I behold him: lo, it is a people that shall dwell alone, and shall not be reckoned among the nations.
10Owai la e hiki ke helu i na hunalepo o Iakoba, A me ka lehulehu o ka hapaha o ka Iseraela? E ake au e make i ka make ana o ka mea pono, I like hoi kuu hope me kona!
10Who hath counted the dust of Jacob, or numbered the stock of Israel? Let me die the death of the righteous, and let mine end be like his!
11I mai la o Balaka ia Balaama, Heaha keia au i hana mai ai ia'u? Kii aku la no wau ia oe o olelo hoino i kuu poe enemi; aia hoi, ua hoomaikai wale aku oe ia lakou.
11And Balak said unto Balaam: 'What hast thou done unto me? I took thee to curse mine enemies, and, behold, thou hast blessed them altogether.'
12Olelo aku la kela, i aku la, Aole anei au e hoomanao e olelo aku i ka mea a Iehova i waiho mai ai iloko o kuu waha?
12And he answered and said: 'Must I not take heed to speak that which the LORD putteth in my mouth?'
13I mai la o Balaka ia ia, Ke noi aku nei au ia oe, e hele pu kaua ma kahi e, malaila e ike aku ai oe ia lakou: e ike oe i kela aoao wale no, aole no e ike ia lakou a pau; a malaila oe e hoino ai ia lakou no'u.
13And Balak said unto him: 'Come, I pray thee, with me unto another place, from whence thou mayest see them; thou shalt see but the utmost part of them, and shalt not see them all; and curse me them from thence.'
14Kai aku la kela ia ia i kahi papu o Zopima, maluna pono o Pisega: hana iho la ia i na kuahu ehiku, a mohai aku la i ka bipikane a me ka hipakane ma kela kuahu a ma keia kuahu.
14And he took him into the field of Zophim, to the top of Pisgah, and built seven altars, and offered up a bullock and a ram on every altar.
15I aku la ia ia Balaka, E ku oe maanei ma kau mohaikuni, a halawai aku wau me Iehova ma o.
15And he said unto Balak: 'Stand here by thy burnt-offering, while I go toward a meeting yonder.'
16Halawai mai la o Iehova me Balaama, waiho mai la i olelo ma kona waha, i mai la, E hoi hon aku oe io Balaka la, e i aku oe penei.
16And the LORD met Balaam, and put a word in his mouth, and said: 'Return unto Balak, and thus shalt thou speak.'
17A hiki aku la ia io na la, aia hoi, ku iho la ia ma kana mohaikuni, a me ia pu na luna o Moaba; ninau mai la o Balaka ia ia, Heaha ka Iehova i olelo mai ai?
17And he came to him, and, lo, he stood by his burnt-offering, and the princes of Moab with him. And Balak said unto him: 'What hath the LORD spoken?'
18Hai aku la ia i kana olelonane, i aku la, E ku ae oe iluna, e Balaka, e hoolohe mai; E maliu mai oe ia'u, e ke keiki a Zipora,
18And he took up his parable, and said: Arise, Balak, and hear; give ear unto me, thou son of Zippor:
19Aole ke Akua he kanaka, i hoopunipuni mai ai ia; Aole hoi ia he keiki a ke kanaka i mihi ia: Ua i mai no ia, aole anei ia e hana mai no hoi? Ua olelo mai no oia, aole anei ia e hooko?
19God is not a man, that He should lie; neither the son of man, that He should repent: when He hath said, will He not do it? or when He hath spoken, will He not make it good?
20Aia hoi, ua loaa ia'u ka olelo hoomaikai aku; Ua hoomaikai no oia, aole e hiki ia'u ke hoololi ae.
20Behold, I am bidden to bless; and when He hath blessed, I cannot call it back.
21Aole ia i ike i ka hewa iloko o ka Iakoba, Aole hoi oia i ike i ke kekee iloko o ka Iseraela; Me ia no o Iehova o kona Akua, Iwaena hoi o lakou ka hooho alii.
21None hath beheld iniquity in Jacob, neither hath one seen perverseness in Israel; the LORD his God is with him, and the shouting for the King is among them.
22Na ke Akua lakou i lawe mai, mai Aigupita mai: Ia ia no ka ikaika me he reema la.
22God who brought them forth out of Egypt is for them like the lofty horns of the wild-ox.
23He oiaio, aole no he kilokilo aku i ka Iakoba, Aole hoi he anaana aku i ka Iseraela: Ma ia hope e oleloia mai no ka Iakoba, a no ka Iseraela, Kupaianaha ka hana ana a ke Akua!
23For there is no enchantment with Jacob, neither is there any divination with Israel; now is it said of Jacob and of Israel: 'What hath God wrought!'
24Aia hoi, e ala'e keia poe kanaka me he lionawahine la. E ku ae hoi ia e like me ka lionakane; Aole ia e moe hou, a ai iho ia i ke pio, A e inu hoi i ke koko o ka mea i pepehiia.
24Behold a people that riseth up as a lioness, and as a lion doth he lift himself up; he shall not lie down until he eat of the prey, and drink the blood of the slain.
25I mai la o Balaka ia ia, Mai hoino iki aku ia lakou, aole hoi e hoomaikai iki aku.
25And Balak said unto Balaam: 'Neither curse them at all, nor bless them at all.'
26Olelo aku la o Balaama ia Balaka, i aku la, Aole anei au i i aku ia oe, O ka mea a pau a Iehova i olelo mai ai ia'u, oia ka'u e hana i?
26But Balaam answered and said unto Balak: 'Told not I thee, saying: All that the LORD speaketh, that I must do?'
27I mai la o Balaka ia Balaama, Ke noi aku nei au ia oe, e hele mai, a e kai aku au ia oe i kahi e; malia paha e oluolu ke Akua i hoino aku ai oe ia lakou malaila.
27And Balak said unto Balaam: 'Come now, I will take thee unto another place; peradventure it will please God that thou mayest curse me them from thence.'
28Kai aku la o Balaka ia Balaama maluna pono o Peora, e nana aku ana i Iesimona.
28And Balak took Balaam unto the top of Peor, that looketh down upon the desert.
29I aku la o Balaama ia Balaka, E hana oe no'u i ehiku mau kuahu maanei, a e hoomakaukau no'u maanei i ehiku mau bipikane a me na hipakane i ehiku.
29And Balaam said unto Balak: 'Build me here seven altars, and prepare me here seven bullocks and seven rams.'
30Hana iho la o Balaka e like me ka Balaama i olelo ai, a mohai aku la i ka bipikane a me ka hipakane maluna o kela kuahu o keia kuahu.
30And Balak did as Balaam had said, and offered up a bullock and a ram on every altar.
