Numbers 25
1 Now when Israel was living in Shittim the people became false to the Lord, doing evil with the daughters of Moab:
И живљаше Израиљ у Ситиму, и народ стаде чинити прељубу са кћерима моавским.
2 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.
Оне позиваху народ на жртве својих богова, и народ јеђаше, и клањаше се боговима њиховим.
3 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.
И Израиљ приону уз Велфегора; и разгневи се Господ на Израиља.
4 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.
И рече Господ Мојсију: Узми све кнезове народне, и обеси их Господу према сунцу, да се одврати гнев Господњи од Израиља.
5 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.
И рече Мојсије судијама Израиљевим: Побијте сваки своје који су прионули уз Велфегора.
6 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.
И гле, један између синова Израиљевих дође и доведе к браћи својој једну Мадијанку на очи Мојсију и на очи свему збору синова Израиљевих; а они заплакаше на вратима шатора од састанка.
7 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,
А кад то виде Финес, син Елеазара сина Арона свештеника, уста исред збора и узе копље у руку;
8 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.
И уђе за човеком Израиљцем у шатор, и прободе их обоје, човека Израиљца и ону жену, кроз трбух, и преста погибија међу синовима Израиљевим.
9 But twenty-four thousand of them had come to their death by the disease.
И изгибе их од те погибије двадесет и четири хиљаде.
10 And the Lord said to Moses,
Тада рече Господ Мојсију говорећи:
11 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.
Финес, син Елеазара сина Арона свештеника одврати гнев мој од синова Израиљевих отворивши ревност за ме међу њима, да не бих истребио синове Израиљеве у ревности својој.
12 So say to them that I will make with him an agreement of peace:
Зато му кажи: Ево дајем му свој завет мирни.
13 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.
И имаће он и семе његово након њега завет свештенства вечног, јер ревнова за Бога свог и очисти синове Израиљеве.
14 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.
А човеку Израиљцу убијеном, који би убијен с Мадијанком, беше име Замрије, син Салманов, кнез од дома оца свог од племена Симеуновог.
15 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.
А убијеној жени Мадијани беше име Хазвија, кћи Сура кнеза народног у дому оца свог међу Мадијанима.
16 Then the Lord said to Moses,
И рече Господ Мојсију говорећи:
17 Take up arms against the Midianites and overcome them;
Завојштите на Мадијане, и бијте их;
18 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.
Јер они завојштише на вас преварама својим, и претворише вас Велфегором и Хазвијом кћерју кнеза мадијанског, сестром својом, која би убијена у дан погибије која дође с Фегора.
