Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,
2 Israel kaminawk nuiah sak ih zaehaih baktih toengah, Midian kaminawk khaeah sah pathok ah; to pacoengah loe nangmah ih kaminawk khaeah la tih boeh, tiah a naa.
"Avenge the children of Israel for the Midianites. Afterward you shall be gathered to your people."
3 To pongah Mosi mah kaminawk khaeah, Midian kaminawk nuiah Angraeng ih lu to lak moe, Midian kaminawk to tuk hanah, nangcae thung ih thoemto kaminawk maiphaw maica hoi amthoep oh.
Moses spoke to the people, saying, "Arm men from among you for the war, that they may go against Midian, to execute Jehovah's vengeance on Midian.
4 Israel acaeng thung hoi acaeng maeto mah kami sang to misatuk hanah patoeh oh, tiah a naa.
Of every tribe one thousand, throughout all the tribes of Israel, you shall send to the war."
5 To pongah Israel acaeng maeto boih thung hoiah patoeh ih kami sang hatlai hnetto loe misatuk hanah angthawk o.
So there were delivered, out of the thousands of Israel, a thousand of every tribe, twelve thousand armed for war.

Moses sent them, one thousand of every tribe, to the war, them and Phinehas the son of Eleazar the priest, to the war, with the vessels of the sanctuary and the trumpets for the alarm in his hand.
7 Angraeng mah Mosi khaeah thuih ih lok baktih toengah, nihcae mah Midian kaminawk to tuk o moe, nongpanawk to hum o boih.
They warred against Midian, as Jehovah commanded Moses; and they killed every male.
8 A hum o ih kaminawk thungah Evi, Rekem, Zur, Hur hoi Reba, Midian siangpahrang pangato athum o; nihcae mah Beor capa Balaam doeh sumsen hoiah hum o.
They killed the kings of Midian with the rest of their slain: Evi, and Rekem, and Zur, and Hur, and Reba, the five kings of Midian: Balaam also the son of Beor they killed with the sword.
9 Israel kaminawk mah Midian nongpatanawk hoi nawktanawk, nihcae ih hmuenmaenawk, maitawnawk hoi tuunawk to lomh pae o boih.
The children of Israel took captive the women of Midian and their little ones; and all their livestock, and all their flocks, and all their goods, they took for a prey.
10 Midian kaminawk ohhaih vangpuinawk to hmai hoiah thlaek pae o boih; a ohhaih kahoih imnawk doeh thlaek pae o boih.
All their cities in the places in which they lived, and all their encampments, they burnt with fire.
11 A naeh o ih kaminawk, a lak o ih hmuennawk hoi pacah ih moinawk doeh lak pae o boih.
They took all the spoil, and all the prey, both of man and of animal.
12 Misong ah naeh o ih kaminawk hoi a lak pae o ih hmuennawk boih loe, Moab azawn ih Jordan vapui taeng, Jeriko vangpui zaeh ah kaom, Mosi, qaima Eleazar hoi Israel kaminawk khaeah a sinh pae o.
They brought the captives, and the prey, and the spoil, to Moses, and to Eleazar the priest, and to the congregation of the children of Israel, to the camp at the plains of Moab, which are by the Jordan at Jericho.
13 Mosi, qaima Eleazar hoi acaeng zaehoikung boih loe, nihcae tongh hanah ataihaih ahmuen tasa bangah caeh o.
Moses, and Eleazar the priest, and all the leaders of the congregation, went forth to meet them outside of the camp.
14 To naah Mosi loe misatukhaih ahmuen hoiah amlaem misatuh angraengnawk, kami sangto ukkungnawk hoi kami cumvaito ukkungnawk nuiah palungphui.
Moses was angry with the officers of the army, the captains of thousands and the captains of hundreds, who came from the service of the war.
15 Mosi mah nihcae khaeah, Nongpatanawk na pathlungh o boih maw? tiah a dueng.
Moses said to them, "Have you saved all the women alive?
16 Khenah, hae nongpatanawk loe Balaam ih lok to tahngaih o moe, Peor kawng pongah Israel kaminawk to Angraeng khae hoi loklam amkhraengs o sak boeh; to pongah Angraeng ih kaminawk salakah kasae nathaih to oh.
Look, these caused the children of Israel, through the counsel of Balaam, to commit trespass against Jehovah in the matter of Peor, and so the plague was among the congregation of Jehovah.
17 Vaihi nawktanawk salak ih nongpa to hum o boih ah; nongpa hoi nawnto iip nongpatanawk doeh hum o boih ah.
Now therefore kill every male among the little ones, and kill every woman who has known man by lying with him.
18 Toe nongpa panoek vai ai tanglanawk loe nangmacae han suem oh.
But all the girls, who have not known man by lying with him, keep alive for yourselves.
19 Nangcae thungah mi kawbaktih doeh kami hum kami, to tih ai boeh loe hum ih kami qok sui kami to ataihaih im tasa bangah ni sarihto thung suem oh; ni thumto hoi ni sarihto naah nangmacae hoi na naeh o ih kaminawk boih ciimcaihaih to sah oh.
"Encamp outside of the camp seven days: whoever has killed any person, and whoever has touched any slain, purify yourselves on the third day and on the seventh day, you and your captives.
20 Nangmacae ih khukbuen, moihin hoi sak ih hmuennawk, maeh mui, thing hoi sak ih hmuennawk to ciimcai o sak ah, tiah a naa.
As to every garment, and all that is made of skin, and all work of goats' hair, and all things made of wood, you shall purify yourselves."
21 To pacoengah qaima Eleazar mah misatuk han kacaeh misatuh kaminawk khaeah, Angraeng mah Mosi khaeah paek ih atawk loe hae tiah oh;
Eleazar the priest said to the men of war who went to the battle, "This is the statute of the law which Jehovah has commanded Moses:
22 sui, sum kanglung, sum kamling, sum, camphaeh ngan hoiah kimah,
however the gold, and the silver, the bronze, the iron, the tin, and the lead,
23 hmai kakaang thaih hmuennawk boih loe hmai hoiah qoeng ah, to tiah nahaeloe ciim tih; ciimsakhaih tui hoiah doeh pasae oh; hmai khaan thai ai hmuennawk loe tui hoiah pasae oh.
everything that may withstand the fire, you shall make to go through the fire, and it shall be clean; nevertheless it shall be purified with the water for impurity: and all that doesn't withstand the fire you shall make to go through the water.
24 Ni sarihto naah khukbuennawk to pasuk oh, to tiah nahaeloe na ciim o tih; to pacoengah loe ataihaih imthung ah nang zo o thai tih boeh, tiah a naa.
You shall wash your clothes on the seventh day, and you shall be clean; and afterward you shall come into the camp."
25 Angraeng mah Mosi khaeah,
Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,
26 kaminawk mah lak o ih hmuenmaenawk to nangmah hoi qaima Eleazar hoi acaeng zaehoikung mah la oh loe,
"Take the sum of the prey that was taken, both of man and of animal, you, and Eleazar the priest, and the heads of the ancestral houses of the congregation;
27 to hmuennawk to ahmuen hnetto ah tapraek ah; misatuk han caeh misatuh kaminawk hoi amkhueng kaminawk han tapraek paeh.
and divide the prey into two parts: between the men skilled in war, who went out to battle, and all the congregation.
28 Misatuk han kacaeh misatuh kaminawk loe kami doeh, maitaw doeh, laa hrang doeh, tuu doeh, cumvai pangato thungah maeto, Angraeng khaeah paek han oh;
Levy a tribute to Jehovah of the men of war who went out to battle: one soul of five hundred; of the persons, of the cattle, of the donkeys, and of the flocks.
29 nihcae mah hak ih tamut ahap to la ah loe, Angraeng taham to qaima Eleazar khaeah paek ah.
Take it of their half, and give it to Eleazar the priest, for Jehovah's wave offering.
30 Israel acaeng ahap khae hoiah, kami doeh, maitaw doeh, laa hrang doeh, tuu doeh, maeh doeh, kalah moinawk doeh, qui pangato thungah maeto la ah loe, to hmuennawk to Angraeng ih kahni im khenzawnkung Levinawk khaeah paek ah, tiah a naa.
Of the children of Israel's half, you shall take one drawn out of every fifty, of the persons, of the cattle, of the donkeys, and of the flocks, of all the livestock, and give them to the Levites, who perform the duty of the tabernacle of Jehovah."
31 To pongah Angraeng mah Mosi khaeah thuih ih lok baktih toengah, Mosi hoi qaima Eleazar mah sak hoi.
Moses and Eleazar the priest did as Jehovah commanded Moses.
32 Misatuh kaminawk mah lak o ih kanghmat tuunawk loe sang cumvai taruk, sang qui sarih, sang pangato oh.
Now the prey, over and above the booty which the men of war took, was six hundred seventy-five thousand sheep,

and Jehovah's tribute of the sheep was six hundred seventy-five.

The persons were sixteen thousand; of whom Jehovah's tribute was thirty-two persons.

Moses gave the tribute, which was Jehovah's wave offering, to Eleazar the priest, as Jehovah commanded Moses.

Of the children of Israel's half, which Moses divided off from the men who warred

even of the children of Israel's half, Moses took one drawn out of every fifty, both of man and of animal, and gave them to the Levites, who performed the duty of the tabernacle of Jehovah; as Jehovah commanded Moses.
48 To pacoengah misatuh sangto ukkungnawk hoi misatuh cumvaito ukkungnawk Mosi khaeah caeh o moe,
The officers who were over the thousands of the army, the captains of thousands, and the captains of hundreds, came near to Moses;
49 anih khaeah, Na tammanawk mah misatuh kaminawk thung ih kami ka kroek o naah, maeto doeh anghmaa ai.
and they said to Moses, "Your servants have taken the sum of the men of war who are under our command, and there lacks not one man of us.
50 To pongah Angraeng khaeah paek hanah sui hoiah sak ih hmuennawk, bungmunawk, ban lakoknawk, bantuetnawk, naa tangkraengnawk, hnah ah bangh koi hmuennawk to Angraeng hmaa ah angbawnhaih ah sak han ih kang sin o, tiah a naa o.
We have brought Jehovah's offering, what every man has gotten, of jewels of gold, armlets, and bracelets, signet rings, earrings, and necklaces, to make atonement for our souls before Jehovah."
