10 Balaame o ne a raya Modimo wa boammaaruri a re: “Balake morwa Sipore, kgosi ya Moabe, o nthomeletse molaetsa a re, 11 ‘Batho ba ba tswang kwa Egepeto ba khurumeditse sefatlhego* sa lefatshe* leno. Jaanong tla kwano, mme o ba mphutsetse.+ Gongwe nka kgona go tlhabana le bone ke bo ke ba leleka.’”

11 Go tswa foo, Balake o ne a raya Balaame a re: “O ntirile eng? Ke go bileditse gore o tle go hutsa baba ba me, mme jaanong ke fano o ba segofaditse.”+

13 Mo letsatsing leo go ne ga balwa buka ya ga Moshe batho ba reeditse,+ mme mo go yone go ne ga fitlhelwa go kwadilwe gore go se nne le Moamone ope kgotsa Momoabe+ ope yo o tshwanetseng go tsena mo phuthegong ya Modimo wa boammaaruri,+ 2 ka gonne ba ne ba sa naya Baiseraele senkgwe le metsi, go na le moo ba ile ba ba thapela Balaame gore a ba hutse.+ Le fa go ntse jalo, Modimo wa rona o ne a fetola phutso eo a e dira tshegofatso.+
