Idisu 25
1 Isala: ili dunu da Sidimi Fago amoga esaloba, Isala: ili dunu ilia da Moua: be uda hiougili, gilisili golai.
Now Israel, at that time, dwelt in Shittim, and the people were fornicating with the daughters of Moab,
2 Amo uda ilia da Isala: ili dunu ilia gobele salasu lolo nasu (amogawi ilia da Moua: be ogogosu ‘gode’ amoga nodone sia: ne gadosu) amoga hiougi. Isala: ili dunu da ha: i manu mai amola ogogosu Bio ‘gode’ Ba: ile, amoma nodone sia: ne gadoi.
who called them to their sacrifices. And they ate, and they adored their gods.
3 Amaiba: le, Hina Gode da ougi bagade ba: i.
And Israel was initiated into Baal of Peor. And so the Lord, being angry,
4 E da Mousesema amane sia: i, “Na sia: nabima! Isala: ili ouligisu dunu huluane lale, dunu huluane ba: ma: ne medole legema. Amasea, Na da Isala: ili dunu ilima Na ougi fisimu.”
said to Moses, “Take all the leaders of the people, and hang them on gallows against the sun, so that my fury may be averted from Israel.”
5 Mousese da ouligisu dunu ilima amane sia: i, “Dilia afae afae amo dilia fi amo ganodini nowa da Bio ogogosu ‘gode’ Ba: ile ema nodone sia: ne gadolala, amo medole legema.”
And Moses said to the judges of Israel, “Let each one kill his neighbors, who have been initiated into Baal of Peor.”
6 Mousese amola Isala: ili dunu huluane da da: i dioiwane, Hina Gode Ea Abula diasu holeiga didiga: lalu. Isala: ili dunu afae da Mousese amola Isala: ili dunu huluane ba: ma: ne, Midia: ne uda hi abula diasu ganodini hiougili asi.
And behold, one of the sons of Israel entered, in the sight of his brothers, to a prostitute of Midian, within view of Moses and of all the crowd of the sons of Israel, who were weeping before the door of the tabernacle.
7 Finia: se (Elia: isa egefe amola Elane ea aowa) amo ba: beba: le, wa: legadole, dunu gilisisu yolesiagai. E da goge agei lale,
And when Phinehas the son of Eleazar, the son of Aaron the priest, had seen it, he rose up from the midst of the multitude, and, seizing a dagger,
8 amo dunu amola uda bobogele, abula diasu golili sa: ili, ea goge agei amoga ela gilisili sone, medole legei. Amane hamobeba: le, olo bagade amo da Isala: ili fi wadela: lesilalu, amo da hedofai dagoi ba: i.
he entered after the Israelite man, into the brothel, and he pierced both of them at the same time, specifically, the man and the woman at the location of their genitals. And the scourge ceased from among the sons of Israel.
9 Be amo olo ganodini, Isala: ili dunu 24,000 agoane da bogogia: i dagoi ba: i.
And there were slain twenty-four thousand men.
10 Hina Gode da Mousesema amane sia: i,
And the Lord said to Moses:
11 “Finia: se ea hamobeba: le, Na da Isala: ili dunuma ougi amo gumi dagoi. E da eno ‘gode’ liligi ilima nodone sia: ne gadosu hou higale, Nama fawane nodone sia: ne gadomusa: dawa: i. Amaiba: le Na da ougili Isala: ili dunu huluane hame gugunufinisi.
“Phinehas the son of Eleazar, the son of Aaron the priest, has averted my wrath from the sons of Israel. For he was moved against them by my zeal, so that I myself, in my zeal, might not wipe away the sons of Israel.
12 Amaiba: le ema adoma. Na da ema gousa: su amo da eso huluanedafa dialoma: ne hamomu.
Because of this, say to him: Behold, I give to him the peace of my covenant.
13 E amola egaga fi da eso huluane mae fisili, gobele salasu dunu fi esalumu. Bai e da eno ‘gode’ liligi mae dawa: le, baligiliwane Na fuligala: i. Amola ea hamobeba: le, Isala: ili dunu da ilia wadela: i hou gogolema: ne olofoi dagoi ba: i.”
And the covenant of the everlasting priesthood shall be as much for him as for his offspring. For he was zealous on behalf of his God, and he has made expiation for the wickedness of the sons of Israel.”
14 Isala: ili dunu amo da Midia: ne uda gilisili medole legei ba: i amo ea dio da Similai (Sailiu egefe. Sailiu da sosogo fi Simione fi amo ganodini bisilua dunu galu).
Now the name of the Israelite man, who was killed with the Midianite woman, was Zimri the son of Salu, a leader from the kinship and tribe of Simeon.
15 Midia: ne uda ea dio amo da Gosabai. Ea ada da Se. E da Midia: ne fi gilisisu ilia hina esalu.
Moreover, the Midianite woman, who was put to death together with him, was called Cozbi the daughter of Zur, a most noble leader among the Midianites.
16 Hina Gode da Mousesema amane sia: i,
And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
17 “Midia: ne fi amo doagala: le, ili gugunufinisima!
“Let the Midianites perceive you as enemies, and strike them down,
18 Bai ilia da Bio sogega dilima ogogoiba: le, Isala: ili fi wadela: lesi. Amola Gosabai amo da olo bagade eso Bio sogega amo ganodini medole legei ba: i, e da ogogoiba: le, Isala: ili dunu da se bagade nabi.”
for they, too, have behaved with hostility against you, and they have deceived you insidiously by means of the idol Peor, and by Cozbi, the daughter of a commander of Midian, their sister, who was struck down in the day of the scourge because of the sacrilege of Peor.”
