Minbu 25

1 Israel mite chu Acacia Grove mun’a aum laitah uchun Pasal chengse Moab mite numeiho toh ajong tauve.

Now Israel stayed in Shittim; and the people defiled themselves by having sexual relations with the women of Moab,

2 Hiche Moab numei techun a Pathen kom uvah kilhan doh din atem uvin ahi. Israel mite chun akilhan na thilho’u chu ane uvin hiche a pathen angsung uvah jong abohkhup tauve.

and they called the people to the sacrifices of their gods; and the people ate, and bowed down to their gods.

3 Hiti pichun Israel miten Baal-Peor kiti ahou uchu ajop tauvin; Pathen lunghan na chu ahung deu jah jeng tai.

Israel joined himself to Baal Peor: and the anger of the LORD was kindled against Israel.

4 Pathen in Mose chu a houlimpin hiche mite lamkai hohi kou khom un Pathen masang ah; sunkim laitah leh amaho hinkhom in alamkai na’u lahdoh pehtan, hiche jeh achu Israel mite chunga Pathen lunghanna aki chon mang thei na ding in, ati.

The LORD said to Moses, "Take all the chiefs of the people, and hang them up to the LORD before the sun, that the fierce anger of the LORD may turn away from Israel."

5 Hichun Mose’n Israelte Thutan lamkai ho thu atan tai: Nang hon namite lah uva koi hitajong leh Baal-Peor hou nungjui jouse na thadoh diu ahi ati.

Moses said to the judges of Israel, "Everyone kill his men who have joined themselves to Baal Peor."

6 Hichun Israel mi khat nin Ama insung mite masanga Midian numei khat Mose masang laitah achun ahin puilut’e; Hichu Israel mipite chu houbuh masanga kap le maova aum lai tah u ahiye.

Look, one of the children of Israel came and brought to his brothers a Midianite woman in the sight of Moses, and in the sight of all the congregation of the children of Israel, while they were weeping at the door of the Tent of Meeting.

7 Chuin Phinehas kiti Eleazer chapa Aaron thempu pa tupa chun amu phat in, Israel mipi kikhopna chu a dalhan, achom doh phut in, a khutna tengcha a kichoi jin ahi.

When Phinehas, the son of Eleazar, the son of Aaron the priest, saw it, he rose up from the midst of the congregation, and took a spear in his hand;

8 Apon buh sunggei ajui lut in, A tengpi hin choi chun Pasal pa tahsa leh numeinu oipoh chu asun peijin akilbeh tha jeng tai. Hiche jeh chun Israel mite chunga gotna Hise lang chu atang hel tai.

and he went after the man of Israel into the pavilion, and thrust both of them through, the man of Israel, and the woman through her body. So the plague was stayed from the children of Israel.

9 Pul’a thi mi jat mong mong chu sang-somni le sangli ahi.

Those who died by the plague were twenty-four thousand.

10 Chuin Pakaiyin Mose henga hiti hin thu aseiyin ahi.

The LORD spoke to Moses, saying,

11 Eleazer chapa Phenahas kiti Aaron thempu tupa ama tah hin Israel chate chunga ka lung hanna jouse eisuh mang peh’a; ei kipasah ahitai. Ajeh chu amapa hi keima dinga thangtom tah leh gunchu tah in apang in, hiche ho jeh a chu Israel chate ka suh mang lou ding ahi tai, tin a seije.

"Phinehas, the son of Eleazar, the son of Aaron the priest, has turned my wrath away from the children of Israel, in that he was jealous with my jealousy among them, so that I did not consume the children of Israel in my jealousy.

12 Tun ama ga seipeh un; Israel te chungah Cham le lungmon anei tah diuvin kitepna kabol e.

Therefore say, 'Look, I give to him my covenant of peace:

13 Ka kitepna ahin keiman Ama ahin Ama chilhah ho chunga atonsot na thempu phunga ka semdoh ding ahi ajeh chu Phenehas chu a Pathen ding’a thang tom tah a pang ahi tan Israel chate ding a ki suhtheng na maicham sem dohpa kiti ding ahi tai.

and it shall be to him, and to his descendants after him, the covenant of an everlasting priesthood; because he was jealous for his God, and made atonement for the children of Israel.'"

14 Midian numei toh thi khom pasal pa min chu Zimri ahin, Salu chapa ahin Simeon phung lamkai pa chilhah ho ahi.

Now the name of the man of Israel that was slain, who was slain with the Midianite woman, was Zimri, the son of Salu, a prince of a fathers' house among the Simeonites.

15 Chuleh Midian numei thina toh chu ahi leh Cozbi akitin Zur chanu ahin Zur chu ahile Midian te insung phung lamkai ahi.

The name of the Midianite woman who was slain was Cozbi, the daughter of Zur; he was head of the people of a fathers' house in Midian.

16 Chuin PakaiyinMose henga thu hiti hin aseiyin ahi.

And the LORD spoke to Moses, saying, "Speak to the children of Israel, saying,

17 Midian mite chu sugimtan chule amaho chunga gimna nalhunsah ding ahi, ati.

'Harass the Midianites, and strike them;

18 Ajeh chu Moab mite in na suhgam thei’u ahin Peor Baal kimanchah na dung juiya Cozbi thua jong nabol sahtan, Midian te lamkai pa chanu jong chu pulla thi lo ahitai. Ijeh nam itileh Peor Baar jeh a hichu lhung ahiye.

for they harassed you with their tricks, with which they have deceived you in the matter of Peor, and in the matter of Cozbi, the daughter of the prince of Midian, their sister, who was slain on the day of the plague in the matter of Peor.'"
