20 Lelo Nguluwi nakamuyila Balaamu nechilo ayo, nakamlonjela, “Wone wanhu wano nawoya kukuchema, uche hamwe na hewo, ila udite chila chondikulonjela hela.”
21 Balaamu nakalilimka mitondo, nakaliwika goya idogowi lya heye, nakoka hamwe na hewo wakulu wa Moabu.
22 Nguluwi nakazudila ng'hatu kwa vila Balaamu nayali yoluta, ahyo mhilisi wa Mkulu Nguluwi nayali yatatamale mnzila kumlemeza kukola. Mhela awo Balaamu nayali yakwinile idogowi lya heye yawele na vitumagwa wa heye weli.
23 Lelo idogowi nalimona mhilisi ayo wa Mkulu Nguluwi yemile mnzila, yebatile ipanga lisomoligwe kuli yala yake. Ahyo nalileka nzila, naliluta hafungo. Balaamu nakalitowa idogowi alyo na kumhilula mnzila.
24 Hamba mhilisi ayo wa Mkulu Nguluwi nakalongola kumwando, nakema honhu hawele na nzila nzisili, hagati mwa migunda ja zabibu na lukanzi banzi zeng'ha mbili.
