4 Mojžišova 25

1 V tom, když pobyl Izrael v Setim, počal lid smilniti s dcerami Moábskými.

Now when Israel was living in Shittim the people became false to the Lord, doing evil with the daughters of Moab:

2 Kteréž pozvaly lidu k obětem bohů svých; i jedl lid, a klaněli se bohům jejich.

For they sent for the people to be present at the offerings made to their gods; and the people took part in their feasts and gave honour to their gods.

3 I připojil se lid Izraelský k modle Belfegor, a popudila se prchlivost Hospodinova proti Izraelovi.

So Israel had relations with the women of Moab in honour of the Baal of Peor: and the Lord was moved to wrath against Israel.

4 I řekl Hospodin Mojžíšovi: Vezmi všecka knížata lidu, a zvěšej ty nešlechetníky Hospodinu před sluncem, aby se odvrátila prchlivost Hospodinova od Izraele.

Then the Lord said to Moses, Take all the chiefs of the people, hanging them up in the sun before the Lord, so that the wrath of the Lord may be turned from Israel.

5 I řekl Mojžíš soudcům Izraelským: Zabí jeden každý z svých všelikého, kterýž se připojil k modle Belfegor.

So Moses said to the judges of Israel, Let everyone put to death those of his men who have had relations with the women of Moab in honour of the Baal of Peor.

6 A aj, jeden z synů Izraelských přišel, a přivedl k bratřím svým ženu Madianku, na odivu Mojžíšovi i všemu množství synů Izraelských; oni pak plakali u dveří stánku úmluvy.

Then one of the children of Israel came to his brothers, taking with him a woman of Midian, before the eyes of Moses and all the meeting of the people, while they were weeping at the door of the Tent of meeting.

7 To když uzřel Fínes, syn Eleazara, syna Aronova, kněze, vyvstal z prostředku množství toho, a vzal kopí do ruky své.

And Phinehas, the son of Eleazar, the son of Aaron the priest, seeing it, got up from among the people and took a spear in his hand,

8 A všed za mužem Izraelským do stanu, probodl je oba dva, muže Izraelského, i ženu tu skrze břicho její; i odvrácena jest rána od synů Izraelských.

And went after the man of Israel into the tent, driving the spear through the two of them, through the man of Israel and through the stomach of the woman. So the disease was stopped among the children of Israel.

9 Zhynulo jich pak od té rány dvadceti čtyři tisíce.

But twenty-four thousand of them had come to their death by the disease.

10 Tedy mluvil Hospodin k Mojžíšovi, řka:

And the Lord said to Moses,

11 Fínes, syn Eleazara kněze, syna Aronova, odvrátil prchlivost mou od synů Izraelských, kdyžto horlil horlivostí mou u prostřed nich, tak abych neshladil synů Izraelských v horlivosti své.

Through Phinehas, and because of his passion for my honour, my wrath has been turned away from the children of Israel, so that I have not sent destruction on them all in my wrath.

12 Protož díš: Aj, já dám jemu smlouvu svou pokoje.

So say to them that I will make with him an agreement of peace:

13 I bude míti on i símě jeho po něm smlouvu kněžství věčného, proto že horlil pro Boha svého, a očistil syny Izraelské.

And by this agreement, he and his sons after him have the right to be priests for ever; because, by his care for the honour of his God, he took away the sin of the children of Israel.

14 A bylo jméno muže Izraelského zabitého, kterýž byl zabit s Madiankou, Zamri, syn Sálův, kníže domu otce svého z pokolení Simeonova.

Now the man of Israel who was put to death with the woman of Midian was Zimri, the son of Salu, a chief of one of the families of the Simeonites.

15 Jméno pak ženy Madianky zabité, Kozbi, dcera Sur, kterýž byl přední v národu svém, v domě otce svého mezi Madianskými.

And the woman of Midian who was put to death was Cozbi, the daughter of Zur; he was the head of a family in Midian.

16 I mluvil Hospodin k Mojžíšovi, řka:

Then the Lord said to Moses,

17 Nepřátelsky zacházejte s těmi Madianskými, a zbíte je.

Take up arms against the Midianites and overcome them;

18 Nebo i oni nepřátelsky a lstivě chovali se k vám, a oklamali vás skrze modlu Fegor, a skrze Kozbu, dceru knížete Madianského, sestru svou, kteráž zabita jest v den pomsty přišlé z příčiny Fegor.

For they are a danger to you with their false ways, causing sin to come on you in the question of Peor, and because of Cozbi, their sister, the daughter of the chief of Midian, who was put to death at the time of the disease which came on you because of Peor.
