¹Huan, Balaam in Balak kiang ah, hiai lai ah maitam sagih hon bawl inla, bawngtal sagih leh belamtal sagih hon suktuah sak ve, a chi a.

¹And Balaam said unto Balak, Build me here seven altars, and prepare me here seven oxen and seven rams.

²Balak in Balaam gen bang in a hih a: huan, Balak leh Balaam in maitam chin ah bawngtal khat leh belam khat a lan ua.

²And Balak did as Balaam had spoken; and Balak and Balaam offered on every altar a bullock and a ram.

³Huan, Balaam in Balak kiang ah, Na halmang thillat bul ah na ding gige inla, kei zaw ka va pai tuam ding; TOUPA hon houpih ding in a hong pai kha thei ahi, huan, a hon hilh peuhmah ka hon hilh ding, a chi a.

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 an high place.

⁴Huchi in mual giau velvul ah a hohtou a. Huan, Pathian in Balaam a na kituahpih a; huan, aman a kiang ah, Maitam sagih ka bawlkhin a; huan maitam chih ah bawngtal khat leh belamtal khat ka lan chiat hi, a na chi a,

⁴And God met Balaam: and he said unto him, I have prepared seven altars, and I have offered upon every altar a bullock and a ram.

⁵Huan, TOUPA'N Balaam kam ah thu a koih a, Balak kiang ah kik nawn ta inla, va gen sawn in, a chi a.

⁵And the LORD put a word in Balaam's mouth, and said, Return unto Balak, and thus thou shalt speak.

⁶Huchi in a kiang lam ah a kik nawn ta a: huan, ngai in, a halmang thillat bul ah a na ding thek a, amah leh Moab mi lian tengteng toh.

⁶And he returned unto him, and, lo, he stood by his burnt sacrifice, he, and all the princes of Moab.

⁷Huan, aman thu a gen ta a, Arom a kipan Balak in a hon pi a, suahlam tang a Moab kumpipa in, Hong inla, Jakobte hon hamsiat sak in, hong inla, Israelte hong nan sak in.

⁷And he took up his parable, and said, Balak the king of Moab hath brought me from Aram, out of the mountains of the east, saying, Come, curse me Jacob, and come, defy Israel.

⁸Bangchi in Pathian hamsiat louh ka hamsiat dia? Bangchi in Pathian nan louh ka nang dia?

⁸How shall I curse, whom God hath not cursed? or how shall I defy, whom the LORD hath not defied?

⁹Amau lah suangpi tung khawng a kipan in ka mu ngal a, tang a kipante khawng in amau ka mu a, tang a kipante khawng in amau ka mu a, ngai in, nam tuam petmah ahi uh, namte lak a sim louh ding ahi uh.

⁹For from the top of the rocks I see him, and from the hills I behold him: lo, the people shall dwell alone, and shall not be reckoned among the nations.

¹⁰Jakobte leivui kuan a sim thei dia, Israelte mun li a khen kun khat kua'n ahia sim thei ding? Mi diktat sih bang in si sam leng, ka tawpna bang hileh! a chi a.

¹⁰Who can count the dust of Jacob, and the number of the fourth part of Israel? Let me die the death of the righteous, and let my last end be like his!

¹¹Huan, Balak in Balaam kiang ah, No'n bawldan bangchidan ahia? Ka melmate hamsiat ding in ka hon pi a, lah vual na zawl zo mawk ngal a! a chi a.

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.

¹²Aman a dawng a, TOUPA'N ka kam a a koih ka gen ding mah hilou ding maw? a chi a.

¹²And he answered and said, Must I not take heed to speak that which the LORD hath put in my mouth?

¹³Huan, Balak in a kiang ah, Mun dang ah hoh nawn dih ni e, huai a kipan in na thei vek ding: a omna chiangchiang uh na mu ding, a vek un zaw na mukhin khol kei ding: huai a kipan in hon hamsiat sak in, a chi a.

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.

¹⁴Huchi in Zophimte omna Pisga vum ah a pitou a, maitam sagih a bawl a, maitam chih ah bawngtal khat leh belamtal khat a lan a.

¹⁴And he brought him into the field of Zophim, to the top of Pisgah, and built seven altars, and offered a bullock and a ram on every altar.

¹⁵Huan, Balak kiang ah, Pam a TOUPA ka va houpih sung in na halmang thillat bul ah na ding thek in, a chi a.

¹⁵And he said unto Balak, Stand here by thy burnt offering, while I meet the LORD yonder.

¹⁶Huan, TOUPA'N Balam a na kituahpih a, a kam ah thu a koih a, Balak kiang ah kiknawn ta inla, a kiang ah, va gensawn in, a chi a.

¹⁶And the LORD met Balaam, and put a word in his mouth, and said, Go again unto Balak, and say thus.

¹⁷Huan, a kiang ah a va hoh a, ngai in, a halmang thillat bul ah a na ding nilouh a, Moab mi liante leng a kiang ah a om tei ua. Huan, Balak in a kiang ah, TOUPA'N bang a na gen a? a chi a.

¹⁷And when he came to him, behold, he stood by his burnt offering, and the princes of Moab with him. And Balak said unto him, What hath the LORD spoken?

¹⁸Huchi in aman thu a gen ta a, Thou inla, Balak, ngaikhia in: Zippor tapa, ka thu ngai in:

¹⁸And he took up his parable, and said, Rise up, Balak, and hear; hearken unto me, thou son of Zippor:

¹⁹Pathian zaw zuauhat mihing phet ahi kei, kisik hat mihing tapa leng ahi sam kei. A gensa a hih kei dia hia? A na gen sa a hih piching kei dia hia?

¹⁹God is not a man, that he should lie; neither the son of man, that he should repent: hath he said, and shall he not do it? or hath he spoken, and shall he not make it good?

²⁰Ngai in, vualzawl ding in thu ka mu a, vual a zawl khin a, ka hih lamdang theikei.

²⁰Behold, I have received commandment to bless: and he hath blessed; and I cannot reverse it.

²¹Jakobte thulim louhna himhim a mu kei a, Israelte ah phengphitna a mu sam kei: TOUPA a Pathian uh a kiang uah a om a, a lak uah kumpipa pahtawina husa a om hi.

²¹He hath not beheld iniquity in Jacob, neither hath he seen perverseness in Israel: the LORD his God is with him, and the shout of a king is among them.

²²Aigupta a kipan in Pathian in a pikhia a, gam bawngtal tha bang a nei ua,

²²God brought them out of Egypt; he hath as it were the strength of an unicorn.

²³Jakobte tungah bumhaina a om kei, Israelte tungah leng khimhaina a om sam kei. Jakobte leh Israelte kiang ah Pathian thilhih hihlat zel ahi!

²³Surely there is no enchantment against Jacob, neither is there any divination against Israel: according to this time it shall be said of Jacob and of Israel, What hath God wrought!

²⁴Ngai in, mipite humpinelkaipi bang in a thou ua, humpneikai bang in a dinthoh ua; a sa mat uh a nek ma un a lum kei ding uh, a mat uh sisan a dawn ma un, a chi.

²⁴Behold, the people shall rise up as a great lion, and lift up himself as a young lion: he shall not lie down until he eat of the prey, and drink the blood of the slain.

²⁵Huan, Balak in Balaam kiang ah, Hamsiat kenla, vualzawl leng vualzawl ken, a chi a.

²⁵And Balak said unto Balaam, Neither curse them at all, nor bless them at all.

²⁶Himahleh Balaam in a dawng a, Balak kiang ah, TOUPA'N a gen tengteng ka hih ngeingei ding ahi, chi in ka hon hilh khin ahi kei maw? a chi a.

²⁶But Balaam answered and said unto Balak, Told not I thee, saying, All that the LORD speaketh, that I must do?

²⁷Huan, Balak in Balaam kiang ah, Hong dih mun dang ah ka honpi nawn deh; huai a kipan in no'n hamsiat sak Pathian in a phal kha zenzen hiam, a chi a.

²⁷And Balak said unto Balaam, Come, I pray thee, I will bring thee unto another place; peradventure it will please God that thou mayest curse me them from thence.

²⁸Huchi in Balak in Balaam gamdai suk et Peor vum ah a pitou a.

²⁸And Balak brought Balaam unto the top of Peor, that looketh toward Jeshimon.

²⁹Huan, Balaam in Balak kiang ah, Hiai lai ah maitam sagih hon bawlsak inla, bawngtal sagih leh belamtal sagih hon suktuah sak in, a chi a.Huan, Balak in Balaam gen bang in a hih a, maitam chih ah bawngtal khat leh belamtal khat a lan hi.

²⁹And Balaam said unto Balak, Build me here seven altars, and prepare me here seven bullocks and seven rams.

³⁰Huan, Balak in Balaam gen bang in a hih a, maitam chih ah bawngtal khat leh belamtal khat a lan hi.

³⁰And Balak did as Balaam had said, and offered a bullock and a ram on every altar.
