若輩捨棄正道、流入歧途、與包掃兒之子巴拉盎實屬一路之人。彼巴拉盎者、貪戀不義之財、

They have left the straight way and wandered off to follow the way of Balaam son of Bezer, who loved the wages of wickedness.

They have left God’s way. They have wandered off. They follow the way of Balaam, son of Beor. He loved to get paid for doing his evil work.

禍哉斯人也、以其行該隱之途、且為利而趨巴蘭之謬、淪亡於可拉之違言、

然我有數端責爾、因爾處有持巴蘭之訓者、昔巴蘭訓巴勒投躓石於以色列民前、使食祭像之物並行淫、

遣使往比珥子巴蘭本族之地、即河濱之毘奪、召之曰、有民出自埃及、周遍於地、實逼處此、斯民強甚、我非其敵、請汝至此、為我詛之、庶我擊之獲勝、驅之出境、蓋我素知爾所祝者、則必受祝、爾所詛者、則必受詛、摩押及米甸長老、手執卜筮之值、往見巴蘭、以巴勒言告之、

噫、爾盈諸詭譎奸惡、為魔之子、諸義之敵、爾紊亂主之正道、將無已乎、

其受非義、乃非義之值也、彼以白晝宴樂為快、乃玷乃垢、與爾同餐時、則於愛筵而宴樂也、

我民歟、爾其憶摩押王巴勒所謀、及比珥子巴蘭所以應之、且憶自什亭至吉甲、所遇之事、俾爾知耶和華公義之行為、○

因爾昔出埃及、彼不以餅與水、迎爾於途、且買米所波大米之比奪人、比珥子巴蘭詛爾、惟爾上帝耶和華愛爾、不聽巴蘭、變詛為祝、

棄法者譽惡人、守法者與之爭、

彼從巴蘭之謀、使以色列族因奉毘珥、干罪於耶和華、致疫行於耶和華之會、

斯人以不義之償購田、身仆、腹裂、其腸突流、

巴蘭告其臣曰、即使巴勒以盈室之金銀饋我、無論事之鉅細、不可逾越我上帝耶和華之命、今夕爾姑宿此、俟耶和華更有所諭、是夜上帝臨格、諭巴蘭曰、如其人來招、姑與偕往、然我所諭、汝必遵循、巴蘭夙興備驢、與摩押使臣偕往、

驢見使者拔刃立於途、遂離其道、入於田間、巴蘭策驢、使歸於道、

以法蓮將曰、我與偶像猶有何涉、我耶和華既應之、必加眷顧、我若青松、爾將由我而結實、

若我、決不止息為爾祈禱、而獲罪於耶和華、必以善道正途訓爾、

對曰、困苦以色列者、非我也、乃爾及爾父家、緣爾離棄耶和華之誡命、從諸巴力、

因其不以糧與水、迎以色列人、乃賂巴蘭來詛之、惟我上帝變詛為祝、

耶和華使驢啟口、謂巴蘭曰、我於爾何為、致爾策我者三、

故我目不顧惜之、不加矜憫、必依其所行、報於其首、

曰、我為萬軍之上帝耶和華、熱中特甚、蓋以色列人背爾約、毀爾壇、以刃殺爾先知、僅遺我一人、彼索我命、欲奪取之、
