Ndaze, kolagana na wanhu chinhu na yaleche kudita,

20 Ulole, mhegwa mzilo wa kutambichiza,
na heye nakatambichiza, heni siweza hebu kugalusa.
21 “Mkulu Nguluwi hawonile wihe wa wana wa Yakobo,
ne kulema kwa hewo wana wa Isilaeli.
Mkulu Nguluwi, Nguluwi wa hewo ka hamwe na hewo,
heye nakabochelaga lutogo lwa wandewa.
22 Nguluwi nayawaholile kulawa Misili,
naketwanza na wang'honyo wa hewo kota ibogo.
23 Ndangukomya, uhawi hauweza hebu kuwasumya wanhu wa Yakobo,
ne upanjilo kwa wanhu wa Isilaeli.
Lelo wanhu wolonga, kuwala Isilaeli,
‘Mlole vinduzanduza vyoyaditile Nguluwi!’
24 Ulole, kota isimba idala nawenuka,
kota isimba ilume wangwima,
Waisilaeli hawokwesela mbaka webate chila chowalinguwinga,
na kunwa danda ya chila chowalinguwinga.”
25 Aho Balaki nakamlonjela Balaamu, “Lelo uleche kuwapanjila ne kuwatambichiza!” 26 Ila Balaamu nakamwidichila Balaki, “Ndaze, sikulonjele heni kota nachoyalonjile Mkulu Nguluwi ndo chondiganigwa kudita?”
