Kwan 31
1 Jehova Nyasaye nowacho ne Musa niya,
And YHWH speaks to 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 sons of Israel against the Midianites—afterward you are gathered to your 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 speaks to the people, saying, “Arm men from [among] you for the war, and they are against Midian, to put the vengeance of YHWH on Midian;
4 Goluru ji alufu achiel achiel moa e dhoot ka dhoot mar Israel.”
one thousand for a tribe—you send one thousand for a tribe, of all the tribes of Israel, to the war.”
5 Omiyo ji alufu apar gariyo noikore ne lweny, kowuok e dhout Israel duto ka gigolo ji alufu achiel achiel.
And there are given out of the thousands of Israel one thousand for a tribe—twelve thousand armed ones [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 sends them, one thousand for a tribe, to the war; [he sent] them and Phinehas son of Eleazar the priest to the war, with the holy vessels and the trumpets of shouting in his hand.
7 Negikedo gi Midian, mana kaka Jehova Nyasaye nochiko Musa, kendo neginego chwo duto.
And they war against Midian, as YHWH has commanded Moses, and slay 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 have slain the kings of Midian besides their pierced ones: Evi, and Rekem, and Zur, and Hur, and Reba—five kings of Midian; and they have slain Balaam son of Beor 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 sons of Israel take the women of Midian and their infants captive; and they have plundered all their livestock, and all their substance, and all their wealth;
10 Ne giwangʼo miech jo-Midian mane gidakie, kaachiel gi kuondegi mag bworo.
and they have burned all their cities, with their habitations, and all their towers, with fire.
11 Negikawo gik moko duto ma oyaki kod mane ope, kaachiel gi ji kod jamni,
And they take all the spoil and all the prey, among man and among 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 bring in the captives, and the prey, and the spoil to Moses, and to Eleazar the priest, and to the congregation of the sons of Israel, to the camp, to the plains of Moab, which [are] by the Jordan, [near] 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, go out to meet them, to the outside of 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 is angry against the inspectors of the force, chiefs of the thousands, and chiefs of the hundreds, who are coming in from the warfare of battle.
15 Nopenjogi niya, “Angʼo momiyo useyiene mon mondo obed mangima?”
And Moses says to them, “Have you kept every female 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, they have been to the sons of Israel, through the word of Balaam, to cause a trespass against YHWH in the matter of Peor, and the plague is in the congregation of YHWH.
17 Omiyo neguru yawuowi duto. Kendo uneg dhako moro amora moseriwore gi dichwo,
And now, slay every male among the infants, indeed, slay every woman knowing a man by the lying of a male;
18 to uwe nyiri duto mapok ongʼeyo chwo.
and all the infants among the women who have not known the lying of a male you have kept 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 you, encamp at the outside of the camp [for] seven days; any who has slain a person, and any who has come against a pierced one, cleanse yourselves on the third day and on the seventh day—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 every skin vessel, and every work of goats’ [hair], and every wooden vessel, you yourselves cleanse.”
21 Eka Eliazar jadolo nowacho ne jolweny mane odhi e lweny niya, “Chik mane Jehova Nyasaye omiyo Musa ema:
And Eleazar the priest says to the men of war who go to battle, “This [is] the statute of the law which YHWH has commanded Moses:
22 Gik machalo gi dhahabu, fedha, mula, nyinyo, chuma
only the gold, and the silver, the bronze, 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 which may go into fire, you cause to pass over through fire, and it has been clean; it is surely cleansed with the water of separation; and all that may not go into fire, you cause to pass over through water;
24 Kochopo odiechiengʼ mar abiriyo to ulwok lepu kendo ubiro bedo maler. Bangʼe unyalo biro e kambi.”
and you have washed your garments on the seventh day and have been clean, and afterward you come into the camp.”
25 Jehova Nyasaye nowacho ne Musa niya,
And YHWH speaks to Moses, saying,
26 “In gi Eliazar jadolo kod jotend anywola mag oganda nyaka kwan ji duto kod jamni mane ope.
“Take up the sum of the prey of the captives, among man and among beast, you, and Eleazar the priest, and the heads of the fathers of the congregation;
27 Nyaka upogi gik mane ope maromre ne joma nodhi e lweny kod joma nodongʼ.
and you have halved the prey between those handling the battle, who go out to the war, 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 you have raised a tribute to YHWH from the men of battle, who go out to the war, one body out of five hundred, of man, and of the herd, and of the donkeys, and of the flock;
29 Kawuru nus mar pokni kendo umi Eliazar jadolo kaka chiwo ne Jehova Nyasaye.
you take from their half and have given [it] to Eleazar the priest [as] a raised-offering of YHWH.
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 sons of Israel’s half you take one possession out of fifty, of man, of the herd, of the donkeys, and of the flock, of all the livestock, and you have given them to the Levites keeping the charge of the Dwelling Place of YHWH.”
31 Omiyo Musa kod Eliazar jadolo notimo kaka Jehova Nyasaye nochiko Musa.
And Moses does—Eleazar the priest also—as YHWH has commanded Moses.
32 Kuom gik mane ope, jolweny nokawo rombe alufu mia auchiel gi piero abiriyo gabich,
And the prey, the remainder of the spoil which the people of the host have spoiled, is six hundred thousand and seventy thousand and five thousand of the flock;
33 dhok alufu piero abiriyo gariyo,
and seventy-two thousand of the herd;
34 punde alufu piero auchiel gachiel,
and sixty-one thousand donkeys;
35 kod nyiri alufu piero adek gariyo mane pok ongʼeyo chwo.
and of mankind—of the women who have not known the lying of a male—all the persons [are] thirty-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 go out into the war, is [in] number three hundred thousand and thirty thousand and seven thousand and five hundred of the flock.
37 pok mar Jehova Nyasaye ne gin rombe mia auchiel gi piero abiriyo gabich;
And the tribute to YHWH of the sheep is six hundred seventy-five;
38 kuom dhok alufu piero adek gauchiel, pok mar Jehova Nyasaye ne gin dhok piero abiriyo gariyo;
and the herd [is] thirty-six thousand, and their tribute to YHWH [is] seventy-two;
39 kuom punde alufu piero adek gi mia abich, pok mar Jehova Nyasaye ne gin punde piero auchiel gachiel;
and the donkeys [are] thirty thousand and five hundred, and their tribute to YHWH [is] sixty-one;
40 kuom ji alufu apar gauchiel, pok mar Jehova Nyasaye ne gin ji piero adek gariyo.
and of mankind [are] sixteen thousand, and their tribute to YHWH [is] thirty-two persons.
41 Musa nomiyo Eliazar jadolo ma kor Jehova Nyasaye, kaka Jehova Nyasaye nochiko Musa.
And Moses gives the tribute—YHWH’s raised-offering—to Eleazar the priest, as YHWH has commanded Moses.
42 Nus mar pok mar jo-Israel mane Musa ogolo kuom joma nodhi e lweny ne chalo kama:
And of the sons of Israel’s half, which Moses halved from the men who war—
43 nus mar pok mar oganda ne gin rombe alufu mia adek gi piero adek gabiriyo gi mia abich,
and the congregation’s half is three hundred thousand and thirty thousand [and] seven thousand and five hundred of the flock;
44 dhok alufu piero adek gauchiel,
and thirty-six thousand of the herd;
45 punde alufu piero adek gi mia abich,
and thirty thousand and five hundred donkeys;
46 kod ji alufu apar gauchiel.
and sixteen thousand of mankind—
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.
Moses takes from the sons of Israel’s half one possession from the fifty, of man and of beast, and gives them to the Levites keeping the charge of the Dwelling Place of YHWH, as YHWH has commanded Moses.
48 Eka jotelo mane orito migepe mag jolweny, jotelo mag alufe alufe kod jotelo mag miche miche, nodhi ir Musa
And the inspectors whom the thousands of the host have (heads of the thousands and heads of the hundreds), draw near to Moses,
49 mi owachone niya, “Jotichni osekwano kar romb jolweny man e lwetwa, kendo onge kata achiel kuomgi molal.
and they say to Moses, “Your servants have taken up the sum of the men of war who [are] with us, and not a man of us has been missed;
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 bring YHWH’s offering near, each of that which he has found of vessels of gold—chain, and bracelet, seal-ring, [ear]-ring, and bead—to make atonement for ourselves before YHWH.”
51 Musa kod Eliazar jadolo noyie okawo dhahabugo irgi, ma gin gik mothedhi maber.
And Moses receives—Eleazar the priest also—the gold from them, every vessel of workmanship;
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 raised-offering which they have lifted up to YHWH is sixteen thousand seven hundred and fifty shekels, from heads of the thousands and from heads of the hundreds;
53 Jalweny ka jalweny noyako mana gima orome.
(the men of the host have each taken spoil 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 takes—Eleazar the priest also—the gold from the heads of the thousands and of the hundreds, and they bring it into the Tent of Meeting [as] a memorial for the sons of Israel before YHWH.
