5 G2532 And G1685 God put G3588 G2316 G4487 a word G1519 into G3588 the G4750 mouth G* of Balaam, G2532 and G2036 he said, G1994 Turning G4314 towards G* Balak G3779 thus G2980 you shall speak.

6 G2532 And G654 he returned G4314 to G1473 him, G2532 and G3592 thus G2186 he stood G1909 over G3588 G3646 his whole burnt-offerings, G1473 G2532 and G3956 all G3588 the G758 rulers G* of Moab G3326 with G1473 him.

7 G2532 And G353 taking up G3588 G3850 his parable, G1473 G2036 he said, G1537 From out of G* Mesopotamia G3343 [⁴fetched G1473 ⁵me G* ¹Balak G935 ²king G* ³of Moab], G1537 out of G3735 the mountains G575 of G395 the east, G3004 saying, G1204 Come G689.1 curse G1473 for me G3588 G* Jacob! G2532 and, G1204 Come G1943.2 accurse G1473 to me G3588 G* Israel!

9 G3754 For G575 from G2884.2 the top G3735 of mountains G3708 I shall see G1473 him; G2532 and G575 from G1015 hills G4357.2 I shall pay attention to G1473 him. G2400 Behold, G2992 a people G3441 [²alone G2730 ¹shall dwell], G2532 and G1722 among G1484 nations G3756 they shall not be reckoned together. G4817

10 G5100 Who G1812.2 determined exactly G3588 the G4690 seed G* of Jacob, G2532 and G5100 who G1821.2 shall count out G1218 peoples G* of Israel?

11 G2532 And G2036 Balak said G* G4314 to G* Balaam, G5100 What G4160 have you done G1473 to me? G1519 For G2672.1 a curse G2190 for my enemies G1473 G2564 I have called G1473 you, G2532 and G2400 behold, G2127 you have blessed G2129 a blessing.

12 G2532 And G2036 Balaam said G* G4314 to G* Balak, G3780 Is it not G3745 as many things G302 as G1685 God should put G3588 G2316 G1519 in G3588 G4750 my mouth G1473 G3778 this G5442 I will guard G2980 to speak?

Tyndale⁽ⁱ⁾ ⁵ And ye Lorde put a sayenge in Balas mouth and sayed: goo agayne to Balac and saye on this wyse. ⁶ And he went agayne vnto him and loo he stode by his sacrifice both he ad all the lordes of Moab. ⁷ And he began hys parable and sayed: Balac the kinge of Moab hath fett me fro Mesopotamia out of the mountaynes of the easte sayenge: come and curse me Iacob come and defye me Israel. ⁸ How shall I curse whom God curseth not and how shall I defye whom the Lorde defyeth not? ⁹ from the toppe of ye rockes I se him and from the hylles I beholde him: loo ye people shall dwell by him selfe and shall not be rekened amoge other nacions. ¹⁰ Who can tell the dust of Iacob and the numbre of the fourth parte of Israel.

I fett ye to curse myne enemyes: and beholde thou blessest them. ¹² And he answered and sayed: must I not kepe that and speake it which the Lorde hath put in my mouthe?

Coverdale⁽ⁱ⁾ ⁵ The LORDE put ye worde in Balaams mouth, and sayde: Go agayne vnto Balac, and saye on this wise. ⁶ And whan he came agayne vnto him, beholde, he stode by his burntofferynge, with all ye prynces of the Moabites. ⁷ Then toke he vp his parable, & sayde: Balac the kynge of the Moabites hath caused to fet me out of Syria from the moutaynes towarde the East, (& sayde:) Come, curse me Iacob: come, defye me Israel. ⁸ How shall I curse, whom God curseth not? How shal I defye, whom ye LORDE defyeth not? ⁹ For fro ye toppe of ye stonye rockes I se him, & from the hilles I beholde him. Beholde, ye people shal dwell by theselues, & shal not be rekened amoge the Heithe. ¹⁰ Who can tell the dust of Iacob, & the nombre of the fourth parte of Israel?

MSTC⁽ⁱ⁾ ⁵ And the LORD put a saying in Balaam's mouth, and said, "Go again to Balak and say on this wise." ⁶ And he went again unto him and lo, he stood by his sacrifice: both he and all the lords of Moab. ⁷ And he began his parable, and said, "Balak the king of Moab hath fetched me from Mesopotamia out of the mountains of the east saying, 'Come and curse me Jacob, come and defy me Israel.' ⁸ How shall I curse whom God curseth not? And how shall I defy whom the LORD defieth not? ⁹ From the top of the rocks I see him, and from the hills I behold him: Lo, the people shall dwell by himself and shall not be reckoned among other nations. ¹⁰ Who can tell the dust of Jacob, and the number of the fourth part of Israel?

Or who, hath numbered the fourth part of Israel? Let me die the death of the upright, And let my hereafter be like his! ¹¹ Then said Balak unto Balaam, What hast thou done for me? To revile mine enemies, I summoned thee, and lo! thou hast, kept on blessing. ¹² And he answered and said,––Was it not [to be so] that, whatsoever Yahweh should put into my mouth, the same, should I take heed to speak?

CLV⁽ⁱ⁾ ⁵ Yahweh placed a word in the mouth of Balaam and said:Return to Balak and thus shall you speak. ⁶ So he returned to him and behold, he and all the chiefs of Moab were stationed at his ascent offering. ⁷ He took up his discourse and said:From Syria Balak gave me guidance, the king of Moab from the mountains of the east:Come now and curse Jacob for me! And come now and menace Israel. ⁸ How should I revile when El has not reviled him? How should I menace when Yahweh has not menaced? ⁹ For from the summit of the rocks I am seeing him, and from the hills I am regarding him. Behold, the people is tabernacling by itself alone, and among the nations it is not reckoning itself. ¹⁰ Who counts the soil-drift of Jacob? And who numbers the dust cloud of Israel? May my soul die the death of the upright, and may my hereafter be just as his!" ¹¹ Then Balak said to Balaam:What have you done to me? To revile my enemies I took you, yet behold, you bless, yea bless them!" ¹² Yet he answered and said:What Yahweh places in my mouth, is it not it that I should observe to speak?

BBE⁽ⁱ⁾ ⁵ And the Lord put words in Balaam's mouth, and said, Go back to Balak, and this is what you are to say. ⁶ So he went back to him where he was waiting by his burned offering with all the chiefs of Moab. ⁷ And in the words which the Lord had given him he said, From Aram Balak has sent for me, the king of Moab from the mountains of the East: come, put curses on Jacob for me and be angry with Israel. ⁸ How may I put curses on him who is not cursed by God? how may I be angry with him with whom the Lord is not angry? ⁹ From the top of the rocks I see him, looking down on him from the hills: it is a people made separate, not to be numbered among the nations. ¹⁰ Who is able to take the measure of the dust of Jacob or the number of the thousands of Israel? May my death be the death of the upright and my last end like his! ¹¹ Then Balak said to Balaam, What have you done to me? I sent for you so that my haters might be cursed, and see, you have given them a blessing. ¹² And in answer he said, Am I not ordered to say only what the Lord puts into my mouth?

RST⁽ⁱ⁾ ⁵ И вложил Господь слово в уста Валаамовы и сказал: возвратись к Валаку и так говори. ⁶ И возвратился к нему, и вот, он стоит у всесожжения своего, он и все князья Моавитские. ⁷ И произнес притчу свою и сказал: из Месопотамии привел меня Валак, царь Моава, от гор восточных: приди, прокляни мне Иакова, приди, изреки зло на Израиля! ⁸ Как прокляну я? Бог не проклинает его. Как изрекузло? Господь не изрекает на него зла. ⁹ С вершины скал вижу я его, и с холмов смотрю на него: вот, народживет отдельно и между народами не числится. ¹⁰ Кто исчислит песок Иакова и число четвертой частиИзраиля? Да умрет душа моя смертью праведников, и да будет кончина моя, как их! ¹¹ И сказал Валак Валааму: что ты со мною делаешь? я взял тебя, чтобыпроклясть врагов моих, а ты, вот, благословляешь? ¹² И отвечал он и сказал: не должен ли я в точности сказать то, чтовлагает Господь в уста мои?

Arabic⁽ⁱ⁾ ⁵ فوضع الرب كلاما في فم بلعام وقال ارجع الى بالاق وتكلم هكذا ⁶ فرجع اليه واذا هو واقف عند محرقته هو وجميع رؤساء موآب. ⁷ فنطق بمثله وقال. من ارام أتى بي بالاق ملك موآب من جبال المشرق. تعال العن لي يعقوب وهلم اشتم اسرائيل. ⁸ كيف العن من لم يلعنه الله وكيف اشتم من لم يشتمه الرب. ⁹ اني من راس الصخور اراه. ومن الآكام ابصره. هوذا شعب يسكن وحده وبين الشعوب لا يحسب. ¹⁰ من احصى تراب يعقوب وربع اسرائيل بعدد. لتمت نفسي موت الابرار ولتكن آخرتي كآخرتهم ¹¹ فقال بالاق لبلعام. ماذا فعلت بي. لتشتم اعدائي اخذتك وهوذا انت قد باركتهم. ¹² فاجاب وقال أما الذي يضعه الرب في فمي احترص ان اتكلم به.

Bulgarian⁽ⁱ⁾ ⁵ И ГОСПОД вложи слово в устата на Валаам и каза: Върни се при Валак и говори така! ⁶ И той се върна при него, и ето, той стоеше при всеизгарянето си, той и всичките моавски първенци. ⁷ Тогава започна речта си, и каза: Валак ме доведе от Арам, моавският цар от източните планини и ми каза: Ела, прокълни ми Яков, и ела, кълни Израил! ⁸ Как да прокълна, когото Бог не проклина? Как да кълна когото ГОСПОД не кълне? ⁹ Защото от върха на скалите го виждам и от височините го гледам. Ето народ, който ще се засели отделно и няма да се счита между езичниците. ¹⁰ Кой може да преброи пясъка на Яков или броя на четвъртата част от Израил? Дано умра, както умират праведните, и краят ми да бъде както неговия! ¹¹ Тогава Валак каза на Валаам: Какво ми направи ти? Взех те, за да прокълнеш враговете ми, а ето, ти дори ги благослови! ¹² А той в отговор каза: Не трябва ли да внимавам да говоря онова, което ГОСПОД слага в устата ми?

Croatian⁽ⁱ⁾ ⁵ A Jahve stavi riječi u usta Bileamu te mu zapovjedi: "Vrati se Balaku i ovako govori." ⁶ Bileam se vrati k njemu, a on stajaše uza svoju paljenicu i s njim svi knezovi moapski. ⁷ Tada on poče svoju pjesmu i reče: "Iz Arama dovede me Balak, kralj Moaba, iz strana istočnih: 'Dođi, prokuni mi Jakova, dođi, gromom udri Izraela!' ⁸ Kako mogu proklinjati koga Bog ne proklinje? Kako gromom udarati koga Jahve ne udara? ⁹ Jer s vrha hridi ja ga gledam, s visoka ga motrim brijega. Gle naroda koji odvojeno živi, među narode on se ne broji. ¹⁰ Prah Jakovljev tko će prebrojiti; pijesak Izraela tko će izmjeriti! O, da mi je umrijeti smrću pravednika! O, da svršetak moj bude kao njegov!" ¹¹ "Što mi to uradi!" - reče Balak Bileamu. "Dovedoh te da prokuneš moje neprijatelje, a kad tamo, ti ih blagoslovom obasu!" ¹² On odgovori: "Zar mi nije dužnost kazati što mi Jahve stavlja u usta?"

BKR⁽ⁱ⁾ ⁵ Vložil pak Hospodin slovo v ústa Balámova a řekl: Navrať se k Balákovi a tak mluv. ⁶ I navrátil se k němu, a nalezl jej, an stojí při oběti své zápalné, i všecka knížata Moábská. ⁷ Tedy vzav před sebe přísloví své, řekl: Z Aram přivedl mne Balák král Moábský, z hor východních, řka: Poď, zlořeč mi k vůli Jákoba, a poď, vydej klatbu na Izraele. ⁸ Proč bych zlořečil, komuž Bůh silný nezlořečí? A proč bych klel, kohož Hospodin neproklíná? ⁹ Když s vrchu skal hledím na něj, a s pahrbků spatřuji jej, aj, lid ten sám bydlí, a k jiným národům se nepřiměšuje. ¹⁰ Kdo sečte prach Jákobův? a kdo počet? Kdo sečte čtvrtý díl Izraelského lidu? Ó bych já umřel smrtí spravedlivých, a dokonání mé ó by bylo jako i jeho! ¹¹ I řekl Balák Balámovi: Což mi to děláš? Abys zlořečil nepřátelům mým, povolal jsem tě, a ty pak ustavičně dobrořečíš jim. ¹² Kterýž odpovídaje, řekl: Zdali toho, což Hospodin vložil v ústa má, nemám šetřiti, abych tak mluvil?

Danish⁽ⁱ⁾ ⁵ Da lagde HERREN Ord i Bileams Mund og sagde: Vend tilbage til Balak, og saaledes skal du tale. ⁶ Og han vendte tilbage til ham, og se, har stod ved sit Brændoffer, han og alle Moabiternes Fyrster. ⁷ Da tog har til sit Sprog og sagde: Fra Syrien har Balak, Moabiternes Konge, ladet mig hente, fra Bjergene mod Østen Gak hid, forband mig Jakob, og gak hid, øs Vrede paa Israel! ⁸ Hvor ledes skal jeg forbande, da Gud ikke forbander ham? hvorledes skal jeg vredes, da HERREN ikke vredes ⁹ Thi fra Klippernes Top ser jeg; ham, og fra Højene skuer jeg ham, se det Folk skal bo alene og skal ikke regne sig til Hedningerne ¹⁰ Hvo har talt Jakobs Støv og Tallet paa den fjerde Part af Israel?

Kiel mi tiun malbondiros, kiun ne malbondiras la Eternulo? ⁹ De la supro de rokoj mi vidas lin, Kaj de altajxoj mi rigardas lin; Jen la popolo logxas aparte Kaj ne estas kalkulata inter la nacioj. ¹⁰ Kiu kalkulis la polvon de Jakob Kaj la nombron de kvarono de Izrael?

Wa Moab la fè m' desann soti nan mòn bò solèy leve yo. Li di m': Vini non! Vin bay moun Jakòb yo madichon. Vini non! Vin kraponnen moun Izrayèl yo. ⁸ Men ki jan ou ta vle pou m' madichonnen moun Bondye pa madichonnen? Ki jan ou ta vle pou m' kraponnen moun Bondye pa kraponnen? ⁹ Mwen kanpe sou tèt gwo wòch yo, mwen wè yo. Antan mwen sou ti mòn yo, m'ap gade anba: Wi, se yon pèp k'ap viv yon jan apa pou kont li. Se yon pèp ki pa menm ak lòt pèp yo! ¹⁰ Ki moun ki ka konte valè pitit Jakòb genyen? Yo anpil tankou grenn pousyè ki sou latè. Ki moun ki ka konte valè pitit Izrayèl yo ye? Mwen ta renmen mouri tankou moun ki mache dwat devan Bondye. Mwen ta renmen fini tankou yo ak kè poze. ¹¹ Balak di Balaram: -Kisa w'ap fè m' konsa?

Hungarian⁽ⁱ⁾ ⁵ Az Úr pedig ígét ada Bálámnak szájába, és monda néki: Térj vissza Bálákhoz, és így szólj. ⁶ És visszatére õ hozzá, és ímé áll vala az õ égõáldozata mellett; õ maga és Moábnak minden fejedelme. ⁷ És elkezdé az õ példázó beszédét, és monda: Siriából hozatott engem Bálák, Moábnak királya kelet hegyeirõl, [mondván:] Jöjj, átkozd meg nékem Jákóbot, és jöjj, szidalmazd meg Izráelt; ⁸ Mit átkozzam azt, a kit Isten nem átkoz, és mit szidalmazzam azt, a kit az Úr nem szidalmaz? ⁹ Mert sziklák tetejérõl nézem õt, és halmokról tekintem õt; ímé oly nép, a mely maga fog lakni, és nem számláltatik a nemzetek közé. ¹⁰ Ki számlálhatja meg a Jákób porát, és Izráel negyedrészének számát? Haljon meg az én lelkem az igazak halálával, és legyen az én utolsó napom, mint az övé! ¹¹ És monda Bálák Bálámnak: Mit cselekeszel én velem? Hogy megátkozzad ellenségeimet, azért hoztalak téged, és ímé igen megáldád õket. ¹² Ez pedig felele és monda: Avagy nem arra kell-é vigyáznom, hogy azt szóljam, a mit az Úr adott az én számba?

Indonesian⁽ⁱ⁾ ⁵ Lalu TUHAN memberitahukan kepada Bileam apa yang harus dikatakannya, dan menyuruh dia kembali kepada Balak untuk menyampaikan pesan TUHAN kepadanya. ⁶ Bileam kembali dan mendapati Balak masih berdiri di dekat kurban bakarannya, bersama-sama dengan semua pemimpin Moab. ⁷ Lalu Bileam mengucapkan nubuat ini, "Dari Aram, pegunungan di timur sana, Balak, raja Moab memanggil aku, katanya, 'Datanglah, bicaralah untukku. Kutuklah bangsa Israel itu!' ⁸ Mungkinkah aku mengutuk, kalau Allah tidak mengutuk? Mungkinkah aku menghukum, kalau TUHAN tidak menghukum? ⁹ Dari puncak gunung-gunung kulihat mereka; dari bukit-bukit kupandang mereka. Lihat, suatu bangsa yang tersendiri tak termasuk golongan bangsa-bangsa lain. ¹⁰ Keturunan Yakub bagai debu tak terbilang; bangsa Israel banyaknya bukan kepalang. Semoga aku mati sebagai orang jujur kiranya ajalku seperti ajal orang-orang itu." ¹¹ Lalu Balak berkata kepada Bileam, "Apakah yang kaulakukan terhadapku? Engkau kubawa ke mari untuk mengutuk musuh-musuhku. Tetapi engkau malah memberkati mereka." ¹² Jawab Bileam, "Saya hanya dapat mengatakan apa yang TUHAN suruh katakan."

Italian⁽ⁱ⁾ ⁵ Allora il Signore mise la parola in bocca a Balaam, e gli disse: Ritorna a Balac, e parla così. ⁶ Egli adunque ritornò a Balac; ed ecco, egli si stava presso al suo olocausto, insieme con tutti i principi di Moab. ⁷ Allora egli prese a proferire la sua sentenza, e disse: Balac, re di Moab, mi ha fatto condurre di Siria, Dalle montagne d’Oriente, Dicendo: Vieni, maledicimi Giacobbe; Vieni pure, scongiura Israele. ⁸ Come lo maledirò io? Iddio non l’ha maledetto; Come lo scongiurerò io? il Signore non l’ha scongiurato. ⁹ Quando io lo riguardo dalla sommità delle rupi, E lo miro d’in su i colli, Ecco un popolo che abiterà da parte, E non si acconterà fra l’altre nazioni. ¹⁰ Chi annovererà Giacobbe, che è come la polvere? E chi farà il conto pur della quarta parte d’Israele? Muoia la mia persona della morte degli uomini diritti, E sia il mio fine simile al suo. ¹¹ Allora Balac disse a Balaam: Che mi hai tu fatto? io ti avea fatto venir per maledire i miei nemici; ed ecco, tu li hai pur benedetti. ¹² Ed egli rispose, e disse: Non prenderei io guardia di dir ciò che il Signore mi ha messo in bocca?

"Vieni", disse, "maledicimi Giacobbe! Vieni, esecra Israele!" ⁸ Come farò a maledire? Iddio non l’ha maledetto. Come farò ad esecrare?

Possa io morire della morte dei giusti, e possa la mia fine esser simile alla loro! ¹¹ Allora Balak disse a Balaam: "Che m’hai tu fatto?

Lithuanian⁽ⁱ⁾ ⁵ Viešpats įdėjo žodį į Balaamo lūpas ir sakė: “Grįžk pas Balaką ir taip kalbėk”. ⁶ Sugrįžęs rado stovintį Balaką prie savo deginamosios aukos su visais Moabo kunigaikščiais. ⁷ Jis kalbėjo: “Iš Aramo mane atvedė Balakas, moabitų karalius, iš rytų šalies kalnų pašaukė mane: ‘Ateik ir prakeik Jokūbą, linkėk pikta Izraeliui’. ⁸ Kaipgi aš keikčiau, ko Dievas nekeikia?

Portuguese⁽ⁱ⁾ ⁵ Então o senhor pôs uma palavra na boca de Balaão, e disse: Volta para Balaque, e assim falarás. ⁶ Voltou, pois, para ele, e eis que estava em pé junto ao seu holocausto, ele e todos os príncipes de Moab. ⁷ Então proferiu Balaão a sua parábola, dizendo: De Aran me mandou trazer Balaque, o rei de Moab, desde as montanhas do Oriente, dizendo: Vem, amaldiçoa-me a Jacob; vem, denuncia a Israel. ⁸ Como amaldiçoarei a quem Deus não amaldiçoou? e como denunciarei a quem o Senhor não denunciou? ⁹ Pois do cume das penhas o vejo, e dos outeiros o contemplo; eis que é um povo que habita só, e entre as nações não será contado. ¹⁰ Quem poderá contar o pó de Jacob e o número da quarta parte de Israel? Que eu morra a morte dos justos, e seja o meu fim como o deles. ¹¹ Então disse Balaque a Balaão: Que me fizeste?

Hvorledes skal jeg tale ondt over den Herren ikke taler ondt over? ⁹ For fra fjellets tinde ser jeg ham, og fra høidene skuer jeg ham: Se, det er et folk som bor for sig selv, og blandt hedningefolkene regner det sig ikke. ¹⁰ Hvem teller Jakobs ætt, tall-løs som støvet, eller endog bare fjerdedelen av Israel? Min sjel dø de opriktiges død, og mitt endelikt vorde som deres! ¹¹ Da sa Balak til Bileam: Hvad har du gjort mot mig? Til å forbanne mine fiender hentet jeg dig, og se, du har velsignet! ¹² Men han svarte: Skulde jeg ikke akte på det Herren legger i min munn, og tale det?

O, de aş muri de moartea celor neprihăniţi, Şi sfîrşitul meu să fie ca al lor!`` ¹¹ Balac a zis lui Balaam:,,Ce mi-ai făcut?

Хай душа моя вмре смертю праведних, і кінець мій хай буде такий, як його! ¹¹ І сказав Балак до Валаама: Що ти зробив мені? Я взяв тебе, щоб ти прокляв моїх ворогів, а оце ти справді поблагословив їх! ¹² А той відповів та й сказав: Чи ж не те, що Господь вкладе в мої уста, я буду пильнувати, щоб те говорити?
