1 Jehova Nyasaye nowacho ne Musa niya,
And the Lord spoke unto Moses, saying,
2 “In kaachiel gi jo-Israel dhi uked gi jo-Midian, eka bangʼe ibiro tho miluw bangʼ kwereni.”
Execute the vengeance of the children of Israel on the Midianites, after which thou shalt 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 spoke unto the people, saying, Arm from yourselves some men for the army, and let them go against the Midianites, to execute the vengeance of the Lord on Midian.
4 Goluru ji alufu achiel achiel moa e dhoot ka dhoot mar Israel.”
A thousand each for every tribe, of all the tribes of Israel, shall ye send to the army.
5 Omiyo ji alufu apar gariyo noikore ne lweny, kowuok e dhout Israel duto ka gigolo ji alufu achiel achiel.
And there were levied out of the thousands of Israel, a thousand of every tribe, twelve thousand armed for the army.
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 army; them and Phinehas the son of Elazar the priest, to the army, with the holy vessels, and the trumpets for blowing the alarm in his hand.
7 Negikedo gi Midian, mana kaka Jehova Nyasaye nochiko Musa, kendo neginego chwo duto.
And they marched out against the Midianites, as the Lord had 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 the kings of Midian they slew, besides the rest of their men that were slain; namely, Evi and Rekem, and Zur, and Chur, and Reba, the five kings of Midian; and Bil'am 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 captives the women of Midian, and their little ones; and all their cattle, and all their flocks, and all their goods, they took as spoil.
10 Ne giwangʼo miech jo-Midian mane gidakie, kaachiel gi kuondegi mag bworo.
And all their cities wherein they dwelt, and all their castles 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 booty, both of men and of cattle.
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 unto Moses, and to Elazar the priest, and unto the congregation of the children of Israel, the captives, and the booty, and the spoil, unto the camp, to the plains of Moab, which are by the Jordan opposite Jericho.
13 Musa gi Eliazar jadolo kod jotend oganda duto nodhi mondo orom kodgi e oko mar kambi.
And Moses, and Elazar the priest, and all the princes of the congregation, went forth to meet them, to 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 over the thousands, and the captains over the hundreds, who had come from the war-campaign.
15 Nopenjogi niya, “Angʼo momiyo useyiene mon mondo obed mangima?”
And Moses said unto them, Have ye allowed all the females to live?
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 chiefly were the cause unto the children of Israel, through the counsel of Bil'am, to commit the gross trespass against the Lord in the matter of Peor; through which there was the plague among the congregation of the Lord.
17 Omiyo neguru yawuowi duto. Kendo uneg dhako moro amora moseriwore gi dichwo,
And now kill ye every male among the little ones, and every woman that hath known man by lying with him shall ye kill.
18 to uwe nyiri duto mapok ongʼeyo chwo.
But all among the women-children, that have not known a 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.
But ye, —you must abide without the camp seven days: all ye who have killed any person, and all who have touched any one slain, shall purify yourselves on the third day, and on the seventh day; both you and your captives.
20 Pwodhuru lewni duto kaachiel gi gimoro amora molos gi pien, molos gi yie diel kata mago molos gi bao.”
And every garment, and whatever is made of skins, and every work of goats' hair, and every vessel made of wood, shall ye purify unto yourselves.
21 Eka Eliazar jadolo nowacho ne jolweny mane odhi e lweny niya, “Chik mane Jehova Nyasaye omiyo Musa ema:
And Elazar the priest said unto the men of the army who had gone to the battle, This is the ordinance of the law which the Lord hath commanded Moses:
22 Gik machalo gi dhahabu, fedha, mula, nyinyo, chuma
Nevertheless the gold, and the silver, the copper, 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.
Every thing that cometh into the fire shall ye make go through the fire, and it shall be clean; only it shall be purified with the waters of sprinkling: and whatsoever doth not come into the fire shall ye cause 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 after that may ye come into the camp.
25 Jehova Nyasaye nowacho ne Musa niya,
And the Lord said unto Moses, as followeth,
26 “In gi Eliazar jadolo kod jotend anywola mag oganda nyaka kwan ji duto kod jamni mane ope.
Take the sum of the booty of the captives, both of man and of cattle, thou, with Elazar the priest, and the chiefs of the families of the congregation:
27 Nyaka upogi gik mane ope maromre ne joma nodhi e lweny kod joma nodongʼ.
And thou shalt divide the booty, between those that carried on the war, who went out to the army, and between 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 thou shalt levy a tribute unto the Lord from the men of war who went out to the army, one individual from every five hundred, of the persons, and of the beef-cattle, and of the asses, and of the sheep;
29 Kawuru nus mar pokni kendo umi Eliazar jadolo kaka chiwo ne Jehova Nyasaye.
From their half shall ye take it; and thou shalt give it unto Elazar the priest, for a heave-offering of the Lord.
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 from the half of the children of Israel, shalt thou take one individual, as it may come, from any fifty, of the persons, of beef-cattle, of the asses, and of the flocks, of all manner of cattle; and thou shalt give the same unto the Levites, who keep the charge of the tabernacle of the Lord.
31 Omiyo Musa kod Eliazar jadolo notimo kaka Jehova Nyasaye nochiko Musa.
And Moses with Elazar the priest did, as the Lord had commanded Moses.
32 Kuom gik mane ope, jolweny nokawo rombe alufu mia auchiel gi piero abiriyo gabich,
And the booty, being the rest of the spoil which the men of the army had taken, was of sheep and goats, six hundred thousand and seventy thousand and five thousand,
33 dhok alufu piero abiriyo gariyo,
And of beef-cattle, seventy and two thousand,
34 punde alufu piero auchiel gachiel,
And of asses, sixty and one thousand,
35 kod nyiri alufu piero adek gariyo mane pok ongʼeyo chwo.
And of human persons, of women that had not known men by lying with him, in all thirty and two thousand.
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, the portion of those who had gone out in the army, was, in the number of sheep and goats, three hundred thousand and seven and thirty thousand and five hundred.
37 pok mar Jehova Nyasaye ne gin rombe mia auchiel gi piero abiriyo gabich;
And the tribute unto the Lord of the flocks was six hundred and seventy and five.
38 kuom dhok alufu piero adek gauchiel, pok mar Jehova Nyasaye ne gin dhok piero abiriyo gariyo;
And the beef-cattle were thirty and six thousand; and the tribute thereof unto the Lord was seventy and two.

And the asses were thirty thousand and five hundred; and the tribute thereof unto the Lord was sixty and one.
40 kuom ji alufu apar gauchiel, pok mar Jehova Nyasaye ne gin ji piero adek gariyo.
And the human persons were sixteen thousand; and the tribute thereof unto the Lord was thirty and two persons.
41 Musa nomiyo Eliazar jadolo ma kor Jehova Nyasaye, kaka Jehova Nyasaye nochiko Musa.
And Moses gave the tribute, the Lord's heave-offering, unto Elazar the priest, as the Lord had commanded Moses.
42 Nus mar pok mar jo-Israel mane Musa ogolo kuom joma nodhi e lweny ne chalo kama:
And from the half of the children of Israel, which Moses divided off from the men that had gone forth in the army, —
43 nus mar pok mar oganda ne gin rombe alufu mia adek gi piero adek gabiriyo gi mia abich,
(Now the half of the congregation was, of sheep and goats three hundred thousand and thirty thousand, seven thousand and five hundred.
44 dhok alufu piero adek gauchiel,
And beef-cattle, thirty and six thousand,
45 punde alufu piero adek gi mia abich,
And asses thirty thousand five hundred,
46 kod ji alufu apar gauchiel.

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.
And Moses took from this half of the children of Israel, as it came, one from every fifty, of man and of cattle, and gave the same unto the Levites, who kept the charge of the tabernacle of the Lord; as the Lord had commanded Moses.
48 Eka jotelo mane orito migepe mag jolweny, jotelo mag alufe alufe kod jotelo mag miche miche, nodhi ir Musa
And there came near unto Moses the officers who had been over the thousands of the army, the captains of the thousands, and the captains of the hundreds.
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 who have been under our command, 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.”
We have therefore brought an oblation unto the Lord, each what he hath gotten of vessels of gold, chains, and bracelets, finger-rings, earrings, and tablets, to make an atonement for our souls before the Lord.
51 Musa kod Eliazar jadolo noyie okawo dhahabugo irgi, ma gin gik mothedhi maber.
And Moses with Elazar the priest took the gold from them, all kinds of wrought articles.
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 offering that they offered up to the Lord, was sixteen thousand seven hundred and fifty shekels, from the captains of the thousands, and from the captains of the hundreds.
53 Jalweny ka jalweny noyako mana gima orome.
The men of the army had taken spoil, 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 Elazar the priest took the gold from the captains of the thousands and of the hundreds, and they brought it into the tabernacle of the congregation, as a memorial for the children of Israel before the Lord.
