< Numbers 25 >
1 And Israel sojourned in Sattin, and the people profaned itself by going a-whoring after the daughters of Moab.
E repousou Israel em Sitim, e o povo começou a se prostituir com as filhas de Moabe:
2 And they called them to the sacrifices of their idols; and the people ate of their sacrifices, and worshipped their idols.
As quais chamaram ao povo aos sacrifícios de seus deuses: e o povo comeu, e inclinou-se a seus deuses.
3 And Israel consecrated themselves to Beel-phegor; and the Lord was very angry with Israel.
E achegou-se o povo a Baal-Peor; e o furor do SENHOR se acendeu contra Israel.
4 And the Lord said to Moses, Take all the princes of the people, and make them examples [of judgment] for the Lord in the face of the sun, and the anger of the Lord shall be turned away from Israel.
E o SENHOR disse a Moisés: Toma todos os príncipes do povo, e enforca-os ao SENHOR diante do sol; e a ira do furor do SENHOR se apartará de Israel.
5 And Moses said to the tribes of Israel, Slay ye every one his friend that is consecrated to Beel-phegor.
Então Moisés disse aos juízes de Israel: Matai cada um àqueles dos seus que se recolheram a Baal-Peor.
6 And, behold, a man of the children of Israel came and brought his brother to a Madianitish woman before Moses, and before all the congregation of the children of Israel; and they were weeping at the door of the tabernacle of witness.
E eis que um homem dos filhos de Israel veio e trouxe uma midianita a seus irmãos, à vista de Moisés e de toda a congregação dos filhos de Israel, chorando eles à porta do tabernáculo do testemunho.
7 And Phinees the son of Eleazar, the son of Aaron the priest, saw it, and rose out of the midst of the congregation, and took a javelin in his hand,
E viu-o Fineias, filho de Eleazar, filho de Arão o sacerdote, e levantou-se do meio da congregação, e tomou uma lança em sua mão:
8 and went in after the Israelitish man into the chamber, and pierced them both through, both the Israelitish man, and the woman through her womb; and the plague was stayed from the children of Israel.
E foi atrás do homem de Israel à tenda, e perfurou com a lança a ambos, ao homem de Israel, e à mulher por seu ventre. E cessou a mortandade dos filhos de Israel.
9 And those that died in the plague were four and twenty thousand.
E morreram daquela mortandade vinte e quatro mil.
10 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,
Então o SENHOR falou a Moisés, dizendo:
11 Phinees the son of Eleazar the son of Aaron the priest has caused my wrath to cease from the children of Israel, when I was exceedingly jealous among them, and I did not consume the children of Israel in my jealousy.
Fineias, filho de Eleazar, filho de Arão o sacerdote, fez afastar meu furor dos filhos de Israel, levado de zelo entre eles: pelo qual eu não consumi em meu zelo aos filhos de Israel.
12 Thus do thou say [to him], Behold, I give him a covenant of peace:
Portanto dize lhes: Eis que eu estabeleço meu pacto de paz com ele;
13 and he and his seed after him shall have a perpetual covenant of priesthood, because he was zealous for his God, and made atonement for the children of Israel.
E terá ele, e sua descendência depois dele, o pacto do sacerdócio perpétuo; porquanto teve zelo por seu Deus, e fez expiação pelos filhos de Israel.
14 Now the name of the smitten Israelitish man, who was smitten with the Madianitish woman, [was] Zambri son of Salmon, prince of a house of the tribe of Symeon.
E o nome do homem morto, que foi morto com a midianita, era Zinri filho de Salu, chefe de uma família da tribo de Simeão.
15 And the name of the Madianitish woman who was smitten, [was] Chasbi, daughter of Sur, a prince of the nation of Ommoth: it is a chief house among the people of Madiam.
E o nome da mulher midianita morta, era Cosbi, filha de Zur, príncipe de povos, pai de família em Midiã.
16 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying, Speak to the children of Israel, saying,
E o SENHOR falou a Moisés, dizendo:
17 Plague the Madianites as enemies, and smite them,
Sereis hostis aos midianitas, e os ferireis:
18 for they are enemies to you by the treachery wherein they ensnare you through Phogor, and through Chasbi their sister, daughter of a prince of Madiam, who was smitten in the day of the plague because of Phogor.
Porquanto eles vos afligiram com suas astúcias, com que vos enganaram no negócio de Peor, e no negócio de Cosbi, filha do príncipe de Midiã, sua irmã, a qual foi morta no dia da mortandade por causa de Peor.
