1 Aisraeli akukhala ku Sitimu, anayamba kuchita chigololo ndi akazi a ku Mowabu,
Ɛberɛ a Israelfoɔ bɔɔ atenaseɛ wɔ Sitim no, wɔn mu mmarima no bi hyɛɛ aseɛ ne Moab mmabaawa no bɔɔ adwaman de guu wɔn ho fi.
2 amene ankawayitana ku nsembe za milungu yawo. Anthuwo anadya chakudya chopereka kwa milungu ndi kupembedza milunguyo.
Saa mmabaawa yi too nsa frɛɛ wɔn sɛ wɔmmra wɔn afɔdeɛ a wɔbɔ ma wɔn anyame no ase. Ankyɛre biara, mmarima no kɔɔ wɔn apontoɔ ase na wɔsomm Moab anyame.
3 Motero Aisraeli anapembedza nawo Baala-Peori ndipo Yehova anawapsera mtima kwambiri.
Ɛberɛ tiawa bi akyi, Israelfoɔ no nyinaa kɔsom Baal-peor a ɔyɛ Moabfoɔ nyame. Yei maa Awurade bo fuu ne nkurɔfoɔ no yie.
4 Pamenepo Yehova anawuza Mose kuti, “Tenga atsogoleri onse a anthu awa, uwaphe poyera, pamaso pa Yehova kuti mkwiyo waukulu wa Yehova uchoke pa Israeli.”
Ɔhyɛɛ saa mmara yi maa Mose sɛ, “Kunkum mpanimfoɔ a wɔtuatua Israel mmusuakuo no ano no nyinaa. Sɛn wɔn wɔ Awurade anim awia ketee sɛdeɛ ɛbɛyɛ a, nʼabufuo a ano yɛ den no bɛfiri wɔn so.”
5 Choncho Mose anawuza oweruza a Israeli kuti, “Aliyense wa inu ayenera kupha anthu ake amene anapembedza nawo Baala-Peori.”
Enti, Mose hyɛɛ atemmufoɔ no ma wɔkunkumm wɔn a wɔsomm Baal-peor no nyinaa.
6 Kenaka mwamuna wina wa ku Israeli anabweretsa ku banja lake mkazi wa Chimidiyani pamaso pa Mose ndi anthu onse a Israeli pamene ankalira pa khomo la tenti ya msonkhano.
Nanso, Israelni ɔhantanni bi de Midiani ababaawa bi baa wɔn atenaeɛ hɔ maa Mose ne nnipa no nyinaa hunuu no ɛberɛ a na wɔn nyinaa gyina Ahyiaeɛ Ntomadan no ɛpono akyi retwa adwo no.
7 Finehasi mwana wa Eliezara, mwana wa wansembe Aaroni ataona izi, anachoka pa msonkhanowo, natenga mkondo mʼdzanja lake.
Ɛberɛ a Pinehas a ɔyɛ Eleasa babarima a na ɔyɛ ɔsɔfoɔ Aaron nana hunuu yei no, ɔhuri sɔɔ pea mu
8 Ndipo anatsatira Mwisraeliyu mpaka mʼtenti yake. Anasolola mkondowo ndi kubaya awiriwo kupyola Mwisraeliyo mpaka mʼthupi la mkaziyo. Pamenepo mliri unaleka pakati pa Aisraeli.
taa saa ɔbarima no so de no kɔwuraa ne ntomadan mu baabi a ɔfaa ɔbaa no. Ɔde pea no wowɔɔ ɔbarima no sane de wɔɔ ɔbaa no yafunu mu. Enti, ɔhaw no to twaa wɔ Israelfoɔ no mu,
9 Pa mliriwo, anthu okwana 24,000 anafa.
nanso ɛkɔsi saa ɛberɛ no, na nnipa mpem aduonu ɛnan awuwu dada.
10 Yehova anawuza Mose kuti,
Afei, Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Mose sɛ,
11 “Finehasi mwana wa Eliezara, mwana wa wansembe Aaroni wabweza mkwiyo wanga pa Aisraeli chifukwa sanalole kuti wina aliyense apembedze mulungu wina koma Ine ndekha. Nʼchifukwa chake sindinawawononge mu mkwiyo wanga.
“Eleasa babarima Pinehas a ɔyɛ ɔsɔfoɔ Aaron nana adwodwo mʼabufuo ano, ɛfiri sɛ, ɔbɔɔ mmɔden te sɛ me ara wɔ mʼanimuonyam ho, enti sɛdeɛ meyɛɛ mʼadwene sɛ mɛsɛe Israelfoɔ nyinaa no, magyae.
12 Tsono muwuze kuti ndikhazikitsa pangano langa la mtendere ndi iye.
Enti ka kyerɛ no sɛ, me ne no rebɛyɛ asomdwoeɛ apam.
13 Ndikupangana naye pangano la unsembe wosatha, iyeyo pamodzi ndi zidzukulu zake zonse, chifukwa sanalole kuti anthu awukire Ine Mulungu, ndipo anachita ntchito yopepesera machimo Aisraeli.”
Saa apam yi mu, ɔno ne nʼasefoɔ bɛyɛ asɔfoɔ afebɔɔ, ɛfiri sɛ watwe me, ne Onyankopɔn, ho ninkunu wɔ Israelfoɔ mu de ayɛ mpata ama wɔn.”
14 Dzina la Mwisraeli yemwe anaphedwa ndi mkazi wa Chimidiyani anali Zimuri mwana wa Salu, mtsogoleri wa banja la Simeoni.
Ɔbarima a wɔkumm no ne Midiani ababaawa no, na ne din de Simri a na ɔyɛ Salu a ɔtua Simeon abusuakuo ano no babarima.
15 Ndipo dzina la mkazi wa Chimidiyani, yemwe anaphedwayo, linali Kozibi mwana wa Zuri, mtsogoleri wa fuko la ku Midiyaniko.
Ɔbaa no nso, na ne din de Kosbi a na ɔyɛ Midianhene babarima Sur babaa.
16 Yehova anawuza Mose kuti,
Afei, Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Mose sɛ,
17 “Amidiyani ndi adani anu ndipo uwaphe,
“To hyɛ Midianfoɔ no so na sɛe wɔn,
18 chifukwa ankakuonani inu ngati adani awo pamene anakupusitsani pa nkhani ya ku Peori, ndiponso za mlongo wawo Kozibi, mwana wamkazi wa mtsogoleri wa Amidiyani, mkazi yemwe anaphedwa pamene mliri unabwera chifukwa cha zimene zinachitika ku Peori.”
ɛfiri sɛ, wɔfaa mo sɛ atamfoɔ, na wɔdaadaa mo ma mosomm Baal-peor, ne Kosbi a ɔyɛ Midian ntuanoni babaa a wɔkumm no wɔ Peor ɔyaredɔm ɛda no.”
