Numbers 31
1 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
BAWIPA ni Mosi a pato teh,
2 “First, avenge the sons of Israel from the Midianites, and then you shall be gathered to your people.”
Isarel catounnaw hanlah Midian taminaw koevah, moipathung nateh, hahoi teh na miphunnaw koevah na ceikhai han telah a ti.
3 And immediately Moses said: “Arm the men among you for a battle, so that they may be able to fulfill the retribution of the Lord on the Midianites.
Hottelah Mosi ni taminaw pueng hah a dei pouh teh, Midian taminaw koevah, BAWIPA ni a moipathung hanelah puengcang kâmahrawk awh nateh, midiannaw tuk hanelah kamthaw naseh.
4 Let one thousand men be chosen from each tribe of Israel, who shall be sent to war.”
Isarel miphunnaw pueng thung dawk hoi miphun buet touh dawk hoi tarantuk hanlah tami 1,000 rip na patoun han telah a ti.
5 And they gave one thousand from each tribe, that is, twelve thousand foot soldiers for battle.
Hottelah Isarelnaw moikapap thung dawk hoi tarantuknae koe cei hanelah, miphun buet touh thung dawk hoi tami tong touh rip a tâ awh teh asumkum tami 12,000 touh a tâco sak awh.
6 And Moses sent them with Phinehas, the son of Eleazar the priest; also, he delivered to him the holy vessels, and the trumpets to sound.
Hottelah Mosi ni a miphun tangkuem hoiyah, 1,000 rip hoi vaihma Eleazar capa Phinehas ka thoung e hlaamnaw hoi kâhruetcuetnae mongka hah a sin awh teh, tarantuknae koe a ceisak awh.
7 And when they had fought against the Midianites and had prevailed, they killed all the men.
BAWIPA ni Mosi kâ a poe e patetlah Midiannaw hah a tuk awh teh tongpa pueng a thei awh.
8 And they put to death by the sword their kings: Evi, and Rekem, and Zur, and Hur, and Reba, the five leaders of the nation, and also Balaam the son of Beor.
A thei awh e naw thung dawk Midiannaw e siangpahrang hai a bawk van. Midian siangpahrang panga, Evi, Rekem, Zur, Hur hoi Reba tinaw doeh. Beor capa Balaam hai tahloi hoi a thei awh.
9 And they seized their women and little ones, and all their cattle, and all their goods; whatever they were able to have, they despoiled.
Hahoi Isarel catounnaw ni Midian napuinaw hah san lah koung a hrawi awh. A saringhunaw pueng, a tuhunaw pueng, a hnopainaw pueng, hah lawphno lah koung a la pouh awh.
10 Both their cities and their villages, as well as their fortresses, they burned.
A onae khonaw pueng hoi a roenae naw pueng hmai koung a sawi pouh awh teh,
11 And they carried away prey from everything that they had seized, both of men and of beasts.
tami hoi saring, san hoi lawphnonaw pueng teh koung a ceikhai awh.
12 And they led these to Moses and Eleazar the priest, and to all the multitude of the sons of Israel. But the remainder of the articles they carried to the camp on the plains of Moab, next to the Jordan, opposite Jericho.
Hahoi san hoi man e naw pueng hoi lawphnonaw teh Mosi hoi vaihma Eleazar hoi Isarel catounnaw koevah, Jeriko namran Jordan palang teng Moab tanghling a roe awhnae koe a phakhai awh.
13 Then Moses, and Eleazar the priest, and all the leaders of the assembly went out to meet them beyond the camp.
Hottelah, Mosi hoi vaihma Eleazar hoi taminaw pueng ni longkha koehoi a dawn awh.
14 And Moses, being angry with the leaders of the army, and the tribunes, and the centurions, who had arrived from the battle,
Hatei, Mosi teh ransabawi 1,000 touh kahrawikung, 100 touh kahrawikung kacuenaw hoi tarantuknae koehoi kabannaw lathueng vah a lungkhuek.
15 said: “Why have you spared the females?
Hottelah Mosi ni ahnimouh koe, napuinaw teh a hring lah na hlung awh na maw.
16 Are not these the ones who deceived the sons of Israel at the suggestion of Balaam, and who caused you betray the Lord by the sin of Peor, because of which the people also were struck down?
Khenhaw, Balaam khokhangnae kecu dawk Peor kong dawkvah, Isarel catounnaw ni BAWIPA taranlahoi kâtapoenae katâcawtsakkungnaw teh hete napuinaw doeh. BAWIPA e taminaw koe lacik a pha sak awh toe.
17 Therefore, put to death all of them: whatever is of the male sex, even among the little ones, and cut the throats of those women who have known men by sexual relations.
Hatdawkvah, camonaw thung dawk tongpanaw hah koung thet awh nateh, tongpanaw ni yo a ikhai e napuinaw hai thet awh.
18 But the young girls, and all female virgins, reserve for yourselves.
Hatei, camohnawn e napuinaw tami ni a ikhai hoeh raenaw pueng teh, namamouh hanlah pâhlung awh.
19 And remain beyond the camp for seven days. Whoever has killed a man, or who has touched one that was killed, shall be purified on the third day and on the seventh day.
Hahoi longkha koe hnin sari touh roe awh. Bang patetlae tami nakunghai tami ka thet e hoi tami ro kateknaw pueng teh, apâthum hnin hoi asari hnin teh namamouh hoi na sannaw hoi kamthoung awh.
20 And all of the spoils, whether it is a garment, or a vessel, or another useful thing, made from the pelts or hair of goats, or from wood, shall be expiated.”
Kamthoupnae pueng hoi, phaivuen hoi sak e hnonaw pueng kong dawk be na kamthoung awh han telah atipouh.
21 Likewise, Eleazar the priest spoke in this manner to the men of the army who had fought: “This is the precept of the law, which the Lord has commanded Moses:
Hahoi, vaihma Eleazar ni hai tarantuknae koe ka cet e ransanaw hah a kaw teh, hethateh BAWIPA ni Mosi koevah kâ a poe e kâlawk doeh.
22 Gold, and silver, and brass, and iron, and lead, and tin,
Sui, ngun, hoi rahum, hoi sum, samphei, hoi konlawk,
23 and all that may be able to pass through fire, shall be purified by fire. But whatever is not able to sustain fire shall be sanctified with the waters of expiation.
bangpatete hnonaw pueng haiyah, hmai ni a kak thai hoeh e pueng, hmai dawk pou ceisak vaiteh a thoung han. Bangpatet nakunghai yah pâsu hoi thoungthainae tui hoi pâsu vaiteh thoungsak hanlah ao. Hahoi hmai dawk phum han kahawihoehnaw pueng teh, khohna hoi tui dawk pekpâsu hanelah ao.
24 And you shall wash your garments on the seventh day, and, after having been purified, you shall enter the camp.”
Hahoi asari hnin vah na hni na pâsu awh vaiteh, hahoi doeh roenae hmuen koe na kâen awh han.
25 And the Lord also said to Moses:
BAWIPA ni Mosi a pato teh,
26 “Take the sum of those things which were captured, from man even to beast, you and Eleazar the priest, and the leaders of the common people.
nang nama hoi vaihma Eleazar hoi tamihu kaukkung kahrawikungnaw hoi hnopai na lawp awh e tami hoi saring hah be touk awh.
27 And you shall divide the prey equally, among those who went out to war and fought, and among the remainder of the multitude.
Lawphno kahni touh lah kapek awh. Tarantuknae koe ka cet ni teh tarankatuknaw hane hoi tamimaya hanlah,
28 And you shall separate a portion for the Lord from the portion of those who fought and were in the battle: one soul out of five hundred, as much from humans, as from oxen and donkeys and sheep.
hahoi tarantuknae koe kacetnaw e a hma thung dawk hoi tami hoi, maito, hoi la, hoi tu, hoi kahring e pueng dawk hoi 500 touh dawk buet touh BAWIPA han a ham lah ta hanlah na kapek han.
29 And you shall give it to Eleazar the priest, because these are the first-fruits of the Lord.
Hotnaw teh lat awh nateh, BAWIPA hanlah kahek thuengnae vaihma Eleazar hah na poe awh han.
30 Likewise, from the half of the portion belonging to the sons of Israel, you shall receive the fiftieth head of humans, and of oxen, and donkeys, and sheep, and of all living things, and you shall give these to the Levites who stand watch over the care of the tabernacle of the Lord.”
Isarelnaw ni a ham awh e a tangawn thung dawk hoi tami, maito, la, tu totouh moithang phun 50 touh dawk buet touh, na la vaiteh, BAWIPA e lukkareiim ka ring e Levihnaw hah na poe awh han, telah a ti.
31 And Moses and Eleazar did just as the Lord had instructed.
Hottelah BAWIPA ni Mosi kâ a poe e patetlah Mosi hoi vaihma Eleazar ni a sak roi.
32 Now the prey which the army had seized was six hundred seventy-five thousand sheep,
Ransanaw ni a man awh e lawphno touksin laipalah a la awh e teh, tu 675,000,
33 seventy-two thousand oxen,
maito 72,000,
34 sixty-one thousand donkeys,
la 61,000,
35 and thirty-two thousand human lives, of the female sex, who had not known men.
napui tongpa ni a ikhai hoeh rae 32,000,
36 And one half of the portion was given to those who had been in the battle: three hundred thirty-seven thousand five hundred sheep.
tarantuknae koe kacetnaw tangawn ni a ham awh e tu 337,500,
37 From these, for the portion of the Lord, there were accounted: six hundred seventy-five sheep;
BAWIPA ham tu 675,
38 and from the thirty-six thousand oxen, seventy-two oxen;
maito 36,000 touh a pha teh BAWIPA ham teh 72 touh.
39 from the thirty thousand five hundred donkeys, sixty-one donkeys.
La 30,500 touh a pha teh BAWIPA ham teh 61 touh.
40 From the sixteen thousand human souls, there fell to the portion of the Lord thirty-two souls.
Tami teh 16,000 touh a pha teh BAWIPA ham teh 32 touh a pha.
41 And Moses delivered the number of the first-fruits of the Lord to Eleazar the priest, just as had been commanded of him,
BAWIPA ni Mosi kâ a poe e patetlah ham, BAWIPA koe kahek thuengnae Mosi ni vaihma Eleazar a poe.
42 from the one half portion belonging to the sons of Israel, which he had separated from the portion of those who had been in the battle.
Mosi ni tarankatuknaw e a ham koung a poe. Isarelnaw e a ham teh,
43 Yet truly, from the one half portion which fell to the remainder of the multitude, that is, from the three hundred thirty-seven thousand five hundred sheep,
tu 337,500,
44 and from the thirty-six thousand oxen,
maito 36,000,
45 and from the thirty thousand five hundred donkeys,
la 30,500,
46 and from the sixteen thousand persons,
tami 16,000 a pha.
47 Moses took the fiftieth head, and gave it to the Levites who stand watch at the tabernacle of the Lord, just as the Lord had instructed.
Isarelnaw ni a ham thung dawk hoi Mosi ni tami hoi saring 50 touh thung dawk hoi buetbuet touh pou a la teh, BAWIPA kâpoelawk patetlah BAWIPA lukkareiim kakhenyawnkung Levihnaw hah a poe awh.
48 And when the leaders of the army, and the tribunes, and the centurions had approached Moses, they said:
Hahoi ransanaw thung dawk tami 100 kaukkungnaw, 1,000 kaukkungnaw ni Mosi koe a hnai awh teh,
49 “We, your servants, have taken a census of the number of the fighting men, whom we had under our hand, and indeed not one was lacking.
Mosi koevah na sannaw niyah kaimae kut dawk kaawm tarankatuknaw hah ka touk awh teh kakuep hoeh e apihai kaawm awh hoeh.
50 For this reason, we offer as gifts to the Lord whatever gold each one was able to find amid the spoils, in anklets and arm bands, rings and bracelets, and little chains, so that you may intercede for us to the Lord.”
Hatdawkvah, ka hring awh nahanlah BAWIPA hmalah yontha sak hanelah tamipueng ni lengkaleng a coe awh e sui hoi sak e, dingyin, laikaw, kuthrawt, hnongpacap, hnâpacap naw hah BAWIPA koe thueng hanelah ka thokhai awh toe telah atipouh.
51 And Moses and Eleazar the priest received all the gold in its various kinds,
Mosi hoi vaihma Eleazar ni, sui hoi sak e puengcangnaw hah a la pouh.
52 weighing sixteen thousand seven hundred fifty shekels, from the tribunes and the centurions.
1,000 touh kahrawikung, 100 touh kahrawikungnaw ni BAWIPA hanelah kahek thuengnae lah a poe awh e suinaw pueng teh sekel 16,750 touh a pha.
53 For whatever each one had taken away in the spoils was his own.
Ransanaw ni a la awh e lawphnonaw teh amamouh hanlah lengkaleng a la awh.
54 And having been accepted, they took it into the tabernacle of the testimony, as a memorial of the sons of Israel before the Lord.
Hahoi Mosi hoi vaihma Eleazar ni 1,000 kahrawikung, 100 kahrawikungnaw e sui teh a la pouh teh, Isarel catounnaw pahnim hoeh nahanlah kamkhuengnae lukkareiim dawk BAWIPA hmalah a tâcokhai awh.
