“Mfumu yake idzakhala yamphamvu kuposa Agagi;
ufumu wake udzakwezedwa.
8 “Mulungu womutulutsa mʼdziko la Igupto

Amawononga mitundu yomuwukira

amalasa ndi mivi yake.
9 Monga mkango waumuna, amabisala nagona pansi,
monga mkango waukazi, adzamuputa ndani?
“Amene adalitsa iwe, adalitsike
ndipo amene atemberera iwe, atembereredwe!”
10 Kenaka Balaki anakwiyira Balaamu. Anawomba mʼmanja ndi kunena naye kuti, “Ndinakuyitana kuti utemberere adani anga, koma taona, wawadalitsa katatu konseka. 11 Tsopano choka msanga uzipita kwanu! Ndinanena kuti ndidzakulipira bwino kwambiri, koma Yehova sanafune kuti ulandire malipirowo.”
