Kwan 31
1 Jehova Nyasaye nowacho ne Musa niya,
And Jehovah spake unto Moses, saying,
2 “In kaachiel gi jo-Israel dhi uked gi jo-Midian, eka bangʼe ibiro tho miluw bangʼ kwereni.”
Avenge the children of Israel of the Midianites: afterward shalt thou be gathered unto thy people.
3 Omiyo Musa nowacho ne jo-Israel niya, “Yieruru jou moko mondo odhi oked gi jo-Midian kendo gitiek mirimb Jehova Nyasaye kuomgi.
And Moses spake unto the people, saying, Arm ye men from among you for the war, that they may go against Midian, to execute Jehovah’s vengeance on Midian.
4 Goluru ji alufu achiel achiel moa e dhoot ka dhoot mar Israel.”
Of every tribe a thousand, throughout all the tribes of Israel, shall ye send to the war.
5 Omiyo ji alufu apar gariyo noikore ne lweny, kowuok e dhout Israel duto ka gigolo ji alufu achiel achiel.
So there were delivered, out of the thousands of Israel, a thousand of every tribe, twelve thousand armed for war.
6 Musa noorogi e lweny ji alufu achiel e dhoot ka dhoot, ka gin gi Finehas wuod Eliazar, ma jadolo, mane otingʼo gik moa ei kama ler mar lemo kod turumbete michiwogo ranyisi.
And Moses sent them, a 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 Negikedo gi Midian, mana kaka Jehova Nyasaye nochiko Musa, kendo neginego chwo duto.
And they warred against Midian, as Jehovah commanded Moses; and they slew every male.
8 Moko kuom joma nonegi ne gin Evi, Rekem, Zur, Hur kod Reba mane gin ruodhi abich mag Midian. Bende neginego Balaam wuod Beor gi ligangla.
And they slew 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 slew with the sword.
9 Jo-Israel nomako mond jo-Midian kod nyithindo kendo ne giyako kweth mag jamni, dhok, kod gik moko duto mag jo-Midian.
And the children of Israel took captive the women of Midian and their little ones; and all their cattle, and all their flocks, and all their goods, they took for a prey.
10 Ne giwangʼo miech jo-Midian mane gidakie, kaachiel gi kuondegi mag bworo.
And all their cities in the places wherein they dwelt, and all their encampments, they burnt with fire.
11 Negikawo gik moko duto ma oyaki kod mane ope, kaachiel gi ji kod jamni,
And they took all the spoil, and all the prey, both of man and of beast.
12 kendo negikelo joma ne omaki, gik mane ope kod mane oyaki ne Musa gi Eliazar ma jadolo kod oganda jo-Israel e kargi mar bworo mantiere e pewe Moab, man but Jordan loka mar Jeriko.
And they brought the captives, and the prey, and the spoil, unto Moses, and unto Eleazar the priest, and unto the congregation of the children of Israel, unto the camp at the plains of Moab, which are by the Jordan at Jericho.
13 Musa gi Eliazar jadolo kod jotend oganda duto nodhi mondo orom kodgi e oko mar kambi.
And Moses, and Eleazar the priest, and all the princes of the congregation, went forth to meet them without the camp.
14 Musa nokecho gi jotend lweny duto; mago mane otelo ne migawo mar lweny mar alufe alufe kod mag miche miche mane odwogo koa e lweny.
And Moses was wroth with the officers of the host, the captains of thousands and the captains of hundreds, who came from the service of the war.
15 Nopenjogi niya, “Angʼo momiyo useyiene mon mondo obed mangima?”
And Moses said unto them, Have ye saved all the women alive?
16 Gin e joma noluwo puonj Balaam kendo gin ema negimiyo oganda mar jo-Israel oweyo Jehova Nyasaye kuom gima notimore Peor, mane omiyo masira onego jo-Jehova Nyasaye.
Behold, 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 Omiyo neguru yawuowi duto. Kendo uneg dhako moro amora moseriwore gi dichwo,
Now therefore kill every male among the little ones, and kill every woman that hath known man by lying with him.
18 to uwe nyiri duto mapok ongʼeyo chwo.
But all the women-children, that have not known man by lying with him, keep alive for yourselves.
19 “Un duto ma usenego ngʼato angʼata kata mulo ngʼato angʼata motho nyaka ubed oko mar kambi kuom ndalo abiriyo. To e odiechiengʼ mar adek kod mar abiriyo nyaka upwodhru uwegi kendo upwodh jogo mumako.
And encamp ye without the camp seven days: whosoever hath killed any person, and whosoever hath touched any slain, purify yourselves on the third day and on the seventh day, ye and your captives.
20 Pwodhuru lewni duto kaachiel gi gimoro amora molos gi pien, molos gi yie diel kata mago molos gi bao.”
And as to every garment, and all that is made of skin, and all work of goats’ [hair], and all things made of wood, ye shall purify yourselves.
21 Eka Eliazar jadolo nowacho ne jolweny mane odhi e lweny niya, “Chik mane Jehova Nyasaye omiyo Musa ema:
And Eleazar the priest said unto the men of war that went to the battle, This is the statute of the law which Jehovah hath commanded Moses:
22 Gik machalo gi dhahabu, fedha, mula, nyinyo, chuma
howbeit the gold, and the silver, the brass, the iron, the tin, and the lead,
23 kod gimoro amora ma mach ok nyal wangʼo noleny e mach, eka enopwodhgi mi gibed maler. To bende nyaka luokgi gi pi mondo gibed maler. Omiyo gimoro amora ma mach ok nyal lenyo nyaka luok gi pigno.
everything that may abide the fire, ye 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 abideth not the fire ye shall make to go through the water.
24 Kochopo odiechiengʼ mar abiriyo to ulwok lepu kendo ubiro bedo maler. Bangʼe unyalo biro e kambi.”
And ye shall wash your clothes on the seventh day, and ye shall be clean; and afterward ye shall come into the camp.
25 Jehova Nyasaye nowacho ne Musa niya,
And Jehovah spake unto Moses, saying,
26 “In gi Eliazar jadolo kod jotend anywola mag oganda nyaka kwan ji duto kod jamni mane ope.
Take the sum of the prey that was taken, both of man and of beast, thou, and Eleazar the priest, and the heads of the fathers’ [houses] of the congregation;
27 Nyaka upogi gik mane ope maromre ne joma nodhi e lweny kod joma nodongʼ.
and divide the prey into two parts: between the men skilled in war, that went out to battle, and all the congregation.
28 Kuom mago mopogne jolweny mano kedo, goluru ni Jehova Nyasaye achiel kuom mia abich bed ni gin ji, dhok, punde, rombe kata diek.
And levy a tribute unto Jehovah of the men of war that went out to battle: one soul of five hundred, [both] of the persons, and of the oxen, and of the asses, and of the flocks:
29 Kawuru nus mar pokni kendo umi Eliazar jadolo kaka chiwo ne Jehova Nyasaye.
take it of their half, and give it unto Eleazar the priest, for Jehovah’s heave-offering.
30 Kuom nus mar pok jo-Israel kawuru achiel kuom piero abich, bed ni gin ji, dhok, punde, rombe, diek kata jamni mamoko. Chiwgi ne jo-Lawi ma tijgi en rito hekalu mar Jehova Nyasaye.”
And of the children of Israel’s half, thou shalt take one drawn out of every fifty, of the persons, of the oxen, of the asses, and of the flocks, [even] of all the cattle, and give them unto the Levites, that keep the charge of the tabernacle of Jehovah.
31 Omiyo Musa kod Eliazar jadolo notimo kaka Jehova Nyasaye nochiko Musa.
And Moses and Eleazar the priest did as Jehovah commanded Moses.
32 Kuom gik mane ope, jolweny nokawo rombe alufu mia auchiel gi piero abiriyo gabich,
Now the prey, over and above the booty which the men of war took, was six hundred thousand and seventy thousand and five thousand sheep,
33 dhok alufu piero abiriyo gariyo,
and threescore and twelve thousand oxen,
34 punde alufu piero auchiel gachiel,
and threescore and one thousand asses,
35 kod nyiri alufu piero adek gariyo mane pok ongʼeyo chwo.
and thirty and two thousand persons in all, of the women that had not known man by lying with him.
36 Nus mar gik mane ope mane omi joma ne odhi kedo e lweny ne gin: rombe alufu mia adek gi piero adek gabiriyo gi mia abich,
And the half, which was the portion of them that went out to war, was in number three hundred thousand and thirty thousand and seven thousand and five hundred sheep:
37 pok mar Jehova Nyasaye ne gin rombe mia auchiel gi piero abiriyo gabich;
and Jehovah’s tribute of the sheep was six hundred and threescore and fifteen.
38 kuom dhok alufu piero adek gauchiel, pok mar Jehova Nyasaye ne gin dhok piero abiriyo gariyo;
And the oxen were thirty and six thousand; of which Jehovah’s tribute was threescore and twelve.
39 kuom punde alufu piero adek gi mia abich, pok mar Jehova Nyasaye ne gin punde piero auchiel gachiel;
And the asses were thirty thousand and five hundred; of which Jehovah’s tribute was threescore and one.
40 kuom ji alufu apar gauchiel, pok mar Jehova Nyasaye ne gin ji piero adek gariyo.
And the persons were sixteen thousand; of whom Jehovah’s tribute was thirty and two persons.
41 Musa nomiyo Eliazar jadolo ma kor Jehova Nyasaye, kaka Jehova Nyasaye nochiko Musa.
And Moses gave the tribute, which was Jehovah’s heave-offering, unto Eleazar the priest, as Jehovah commanded Moses.
42 Nus mar pok mar jo-Israel mane Musa ogolo kuom joma nodhi e lweny ne chalo kama:
And of the children of Israel’s half, which Moses divided off from the men that warred
43 nus mar pok mar oganda ne gin rombe alufu mia adek gi piero adek gabiriyo gi mia abich,
(now the congregation’s half was three hundred thousand and thirty thousand, seven thousand and five hundred sheep,
44 dhok alufu piero adek gauchiel,
and thirty and six thousand oxen,
45 punde alufu piero adek gi mia abich,
and thirty thousand and five hundred asses,
46 kod ji alufu apar gauchiel.
and sixteen thousand persons),
47 Kuom nus pok mar jo-Israel, Musa noyiero achiel kuom piero abich mar ji kod jamni, mana kaka Jehova Nyasaye nochike, mi nomiyogi jo-Lawi, ma tijgi ne en rito hekalu mar Jehova Nyasaye.
even of the children of Israel’s half, Moses took one drawn out of every fifty, both of man and of beast, and gave them unto the Levites, that kept the charge of the tabernacle of Jehovah; as Jehovah commanded Moses.
48 Eka jotelo mane orito migepe mag jolweny, jotelo mag alufe alufe kod jotelo mag miche miche, nodhi ir Musa
And the officers that were over the thousands of the host, the captains of thousands, and the captains of hundreds, came near unto Moses;
49 mi owachone niya, “Jotichni osekwano kar romb jolweny man e lwetwa, kendo onge kata achiel kuomgi molal.
and they said unto Moses, Thy servants have taken the sum of the men of war that are under our charge, and there lacketh not one man of us.
50 Omiyo wasekelo mich ne Jehova Nyasaye kuom gik molos gi dhahabu mane wayako kaka; thiwni, manyonge, tere, stadi kod tigo mondo omi wapwodhrego e richo e nyim Jehova Nyasaye.”
And we have brought Jehovah’s oblation, what every man hath gotten, of jewels of gold, ankle-chains, and bracelets, signet-rings, ear-rings, and armlets, to make atonement for our souls before Jehovah.
51 Musa kod Eliazar jadolo noyie okawo dhahabugo irgi, ma gin gik mothedhi maber.
And Moses and Eleazar the priest took the gold of them, even all wrought jewels.
52 Dhahabu duto mane oa ir jotend lweny mag alufe alufe kod mago mag miche miche mane Musa kod Eliazar jadolo ochiwo kaka mich ne Jehova Nyasaye pekgi ne romo kilo mia ariyo.
And all the gold of the heave-offering that they offered up to Jehovah, of the captains of thousands, and of the captains of hundreds, was sixteen thousand seven hundred and fifty shekels.
53 Jalweny ka jalweny noyako mana gima orome.
([For] the men of war had taken booty, every man for himself.)
54 Musa kod Eliazar jadolo nokawo dhahabu koa kuom jotend jolweny mag alufe alufe kod mago mag miche miche mi negiterogi e Hemb Romo kaka rapar mar jo-Israel e nyim Jehova Nyasaye.
And Moses and Eleazar the priest took the gold of the captains of thousands and of hundreds, and brought it into the tent of meeting, for a memorial for the children of Israel before Jehovah.
