民數記 25
1 當以色列人住在史廷的時候，民眾開始與摩阿布女子行淫。
And it remained Israel in Shittim and it began the people to commit fornication into [the] daughters of Moab.
2 這些女子請民眾參與她們神祗的祭祀；民眾吃了供物，且朝拜了她們的神祗。
And they invited the people to [the] sacrifices of gods their and it ate the people and they bowed down to gods their.
3 這樣以色列人就歸依了巴耳培敖爾，上主因此對以色列大發憤怒。
And it joined itself Israel to Baal Peor and it burned [the] anger of Yahweh on Israel.
4 上主對梅瑟說：「你捉住民眾中所有的罪魁，在光天化日之下，為上主對他們懸掛起來，好挽回上主對以色列的怒火」。
And he said Yahweh to Moses take all [the] leaders of the people and impale them to Yahweh before the sun so may it turn away [the] burning of [the] anger of Yahweh from Israel.
5 梅瑟就吩咐以色列的各首長說：「你們每人應將自已家中歸依巴耳培敖爾的人殺死」。
And he said Moses to [the] judges of Israel kill everyone men his who have joined themselves to Baal Peor.
6 看，當梅瑟和以色列子民全會眾都在會幕門口流淚痛哭時，以色列子民中正有一人，當他們的面，帶了一個米德揚女人到他兄弟那裏去。
And there! a man from [the] people of Israel [was] coming and he brought near to brothers his the Midianite [woman] to [the] eyes of Moses and to [the] eyes of all [the] congregation of [the] people of Israel and they [were] weeping [the] entrance of [the] tent of meeting.
7 大司祭亞郎的兒子厄肋阿匝爾的兒子丕乃哈斯一見，就由會眾中起來，順手拿了一把長槍，
And he saw [it] Phinehas [the] son of Eleazar [the] son of Aaron the priest and he arose from among the congregation and he took a spear in hand his.
8 跟那以色列人進入臥室內，刺穿了他們兩人，即那以色列和那女人的肚腹；以色列子民間的災禍遂止息了。
And he went after [the] man of Israel into the tent and he pierced through both of them [the] man of Israel and the woman into belly her and it was restrained the plague from on [the] people of Israel.
9 在這次災禍內，死去了二萬四千人。
And they were those [who] died by the plague four and twenty thousand.
10 上主於是訓示梅瑟說：
And he spoke Yahweh to Moses saying.
11 「大司祭亞郎的孫子，厄肋阿匝爾床的丕乃哈斯，由以色列子民身上挽回了我的憤怒，因為他在他們中，懷著與我同樣的嫉邪的心，因此我沒有因我嫉邪之心消滅了以色列子民。
Phinehas [the] son of Eleazar [the] son of Aaron the priest he has turned back rage my from against [the] people of Israel because was zealous he zeal my in midst of them and not I made an end of [the] people of Israel in zeal my.
12 為此你應聲明：看，我與他結平安的盟約。
Therefore say here I [am] about to give to him covenant my peace.
13 這為他和他的後裔，是永享司祭品位的盟約，因為他為了自己天主的緣故，嫉惡如仇，賠補了以色列子民的罪」。
And it will belong to him and to offspring his after him a covenant of priesthood of perpetuity because that he was zealous for God his and he made atonement on [the] people of Israel.
14 那與米德揚女人一同被殺的人，名叫齊默黎，是撒路的兒子，西滿盎家族的族長。
And [the] name of [the] man of Israel who was struck down who he was struck down with the Midianite [woman] [was] Zimri [the] son of Salu a leader of a house of a father of the Simeonite[s].
15 那被殺的米德揚女人，名叫苛次彼，是族爾的女兒；族爾是米德揚一部落的酋長。
And [the] name of the woman who was struck down the Midianite [woman] [was] Cozbi [the] daughter of Zur [was] a leader of tribes a house of a father in Midian he.
16 事後，上主訓示梅瑟說：
And he spoke Yahweh to Moses say.
17 「你應2圍攻米德揚人，打擊他們，因為他們用詭計打擊了你們，就是在培敖爾的事上，
oppose The Midianites and you will strike down them.
18 並且他們的姊妹．米德揚酋長的女兒苛次彼的事上，欺騙了你們。──這女子已在培敖爾的事上，在災禍之日被殺」。
For [are] opposers they you by deceitfulness their which they have dealt deceptively to you on [the] matter of Peor and on [the] matter of Cozbi [the] daughter of [the] leader of Midian sister their who was struck down on [the] day of the plague on [the] matter of Peor.
