Numbers 31
1 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
I korero ano a Ihowa ki a Mohi, i mea,
2 “First, avenge the sons of Israel from the Midianites, and then you shall be gathered to your people.”
Rapua he utu mo nga tama a Iharaira i nga Miriani: hei muri iho ka kohia koe ki tou iwi.
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.
Na ka korero a Mohi ki te iwi, ka mea, Whitiki etahi o koutou mo te whawhai, ka haere ai ki te tu i a Miriana ki te tohe i ta Ihowa utu i a Miriana.
4 Let one thousand men be chosen from each tribe of Israel, who shall be sent to war.”
Kia kotahi te mano o tenei iwi, o tenei iwi, o nga iwi katoa o iharaira, e unga ki te whawhai.
5 And they gave one thousand from each tribe, that is, twelve thousand foot soldiers for battle.
Na ka wehea e ratou i roto i nga mano o Iharaira, he mano no ia iwi, tekau ma rua mano, rite tonu i te patu mo te whawhai.
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.
Na, ka unga ratou e Mohi ki te whawhai, he mano no tenei iwi, no tenei iwi, me Pinehaha tama a Eratara tohunga, ki te whawhai, me nga mea tapu ano, me nga tetere i tona ringa hei whakaoho.
7 And when they had fought against the Midianites and had prevailed, they killed all the men.
Na ka whawhai ratou ki a Miriana, ka pera me ta Ihowa i whakahau ai ki a Mohi: a patua iho e ratou nga tane katoa.
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.
I patua ano e ratou nga kingi o Miriana, i roto i te parekura; a Ewi ratou ko Rekeme, ko Turu, ko Huru, ko Repa, nga kingi tokorima o Miriana: i patua ano e ratou a Paraama, te tama a Peoro ki te hoari.
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.
A whakaraua ana e nga tama a Iharaira nga wahine o Miriana, me a ratou kohungahunga; i tongohia ano a ratou kararehe katoa, hei taonga parau, me a ratou kahui katoa, me o ratou taonga katoa.
10 Both their cities and their villages, as well as their fortresses, they burned.
Tahuna ake hoki e ratou ki te ahi o ratou pa katoa i noho ai ratou, me o ratou whare rangatira katoa.
11 And they carried away prey from everything that they had seized, both of men and of beasts.
A tangohia ana e ratou nga taonga katoa, me nga mea parau katoa, te tangata me te kararehe.
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.
A kawea ana e ratou ki a Mohi raua ko Ereatara tohunga, ki te whakaminenga ano hoki o nga tama a Iharaira, nga whakarau, me era mea parau, me nga taonga, ki te puni ki nga mania o Moapa, ki te wahi o Horano e tata ana ki Heriko.
13 Then Moses, and Eleazar the priest, and all the leaders of the assembly went out to meet them beyond the camp.
A ka puta a Mohi ratou ko Ereatara tohunga, ko nga ariki katoa o te whakaminenga ki te whakatau i a ratou ki waho o te puni;
14 And Moses, being angry with the leaders of the army, and the tribunes, and the centurions, who had arrived from the battle,
Na ka riri a Mohi ki nga rangatira o te ope, ki nga rangatira o nga mano, ki nga rangatira ano hoki o nga rau, i haere mai nei i te whawhai.
15 said: “Why have you spared the females?
Na ka mea a Mohi ki a ratou, Kua whakaorangia e koutou nga wahine katoa?
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?
Nana, ko nga mea enei nana i tutu ai nga tama a Iharaira ki a Ihowa i to Peoro ra, he mea tohutohu na Paraama, i pa ai te whiu ki te whakaminenga a Ihowa.
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.
Na reira patua aianei nga tane katoa i roto i nga kohungahunga, patua hoki nga wahine katoa kua mohio, kua takoto ki te tane.
18 But the young girls, and all female virgins, reserve for yourselves.
Ko nga kohungahunga wahine katoa ia, kahore nei i mohio, i takoto ki te tane, whakaorangia ma koutou.
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.
Ko koutou hoki, me noho ki waho o te puni, kia whitu nga ra: ko nga tangata katoa i patu i te tangata, me nga mea katoa hoki i pa ki te tangata i patua, me pure koutou i a koutou, me a koutou whakarau i te toru o nga ra, i te whitu hoki o nga ra.
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.”
Me pure ano hoki nga kakahu katoa, me nga oko hiako, me nga mea katoa i hanga ki te huruhuru koati, me nga oko rakau katoa.
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:
I mea ano a Ereatara tohunga ki nga tangata whawhai, i haere ki te riri, Ko te tikanga tenei o te ture i whakahaua e Ihowa ki a Mohi;
22 Gold, and silver, and brass, and iron, and lead, and tin,
Ko te koura anake, me te hiriwa, ko te parahi, ko te rino, ko te tine, me te mata,
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.
Ko nga mea katoa e puta i te ahi, me tuku na roto i te ahi, a ka kore te poke: otiia me pure ano ki te wai o te wehenga: a, ko nga mea katoa e kore e puta i te ahi, me tuku na roto i te wai.
24 And you shall wash your garments on the seventh day, and, after having been purified, you shall enter the camp.”
A me horoi o koutou kakahu i te whitu o nga ra, a ka kore o koutou poke, a hei muri iho ka tomo ki te puni.
25 And the Lord also said to Moses:
A i korero a Ihowa ki a Mohi, i mea,
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.
Tirohia te maha o te taonga parau i riro mai, o te tangata, o te kararehe, e korua ko Ereatara tohunga, e nga matua ariki ano hoki o nga whare o te whakaminenga:
27 And you shall divide the prey equally, among those who went out to war and fought, and among the remainder of the multitude.
Wehea hoki nga taonga parau kia rua nga wahi; ma te hunga i hapai i te pakanga, i haere atu ki te whawhai, ma te whakaminenga katoa ano.
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.
Tangohia ano hoki he takoha ma Ihowa i nga tangata i whawhai, i haere atu na ki te riri: kia kotahi wairua i roto i nga rau e rima, o te tangata, ratou tahi ko te kau, ko te kaihe, ko nga hipi hoki.
29 And you shall give it to Eleazar the priest, because these are the first-fruits of the Lord.
Me tango i roto i ta ratou hawhe, ka hoatu ai ki a Ereatara, ki te tohunga, hei whakahere hapahapai ki a Ihowa.
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.”
Me tango ano e koe i roto i te hawhe a nga tama a Iharaira, kia kotahi wahi i roto i te rima tekau, o te tangata, o te kau, o te kaihe, o te hipi, ara o nga kararehe katoa, ka hoatu ai ma nga Riwaiti, ma nga kaitiaki o nga mea o te tapenakara o Ihowa.
31 And Moses and Eleazar did just as the Lord had instructed.
Na peratia ana e Mohi raua ko Ereatara tohunga me ta Ihowa i whakahau ai ki a Mohi.
32 Now the prey which the army had seized was six hundred seventy-five thousand sheep,
A ko te taonga, ko te toenga iho o nga mea i riro parau i nga tangata i whawhai, e ono rau e whitu tekau ma rima mano hipi,
33 seventy-two thousand oxen,
E whitu tekau ma rua mano hoki nga kau,
34 sixty-one thousand donkeys,
E ono tekau ma tahi mano nga kaihe,
35 and thirty-two thousand human lives, of the female sex, who had not known men.
E toru tekau ma rua mano nga tangata, ara nga wahine kahore ano i mohio noa, i takoto noa, ki te tane.
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.
A, ko tera hawhe, ko te wahi a te hunga i haere ki te whawhai, e toru rau e toru tekau ma whitu mano e rima rau te maha o nga hipi:
37 From these, for the portion of the Lord, there were accounted: six hundred seventy-five sheep;
A, ko te takoha ma Ihowa o nga hipi e ono rau e whitu tekau ma rima.
38 and from the thirty-six thousand oxen, seventy-two oxen;
E toru tekau ma ono mano nga kau; a, ko te takoha ma Ihowa e whitu tekau ma rua.
39 from the thirty thousand five hundred donkeys, sixty-one donkeys.
E toru tekau mano e rima rau nga kaihe; a, ko te takoha ma Ihowa e ono tekau ma tahi.
40 From the sixteen thousand human souls, there fell to the portion of the Lord thirty-two souls.
A ko nga tangata tekau ma ono mano; a, ko te takoha ma Ihowa, e toru tekau ma rua tangata.
41 And Moses delivered the number of the first-fruits of the Lord to Eleazar the priest, just as had been commanded of him,
Na ka hoatu e Mohi te takoha, te whakahere hapahapai ma Ihowa, ki a Ereatara tohunga, ka peratia me ta Ihowa i whakahau ai ki a Mohi.
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.
Na, no roto i te hawhe a nga tama a Iharaira i wehea nei e Mohi i roto i ta te hunga i whawhai,
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,
Ko te hawhe hoki a te whakaminenga, e toru rau e toru tekau ma whitu mano e rima rau hipi,
44 and from the thirty-six thousand oxen,
E toru tekau ma ono mano nga kau,
45 and from the thirty thousand five hundred donkeys,
E toru tekau mano e rima rau nga kaihe,
46 and from the sixteen thousand persons,
Kotahi tekau ma ono mano nga tangata;
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.
I tangohia e Mohi i roto i te hawhe a nga tama a Iharaira, kotahi wahi i roto i te rima tekau, o te tangata, o te kararehe; a hoatu ana ki nga Riwaiti i tiaki nei i nga mea o te tapenakara o Ihowa; i peratia ano me ta Ihowa i whakahau ai ki a Mo hi.
48 And when the leaders of the army, and the tribunes, and the centurions had approached Moses, they said:
Na ka haere mai ki a Mohi nga rangatira mano o te ope, nga rangatira mano ratou ko nga rangatira rau:
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.
A ka mea ki a Mohi, Kua tirohia e au pononga te tokomaha o nga tangata i whawhai nei i raro i o matou ringa, a kahore i ngaro tetahi o matou.
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.”
Koia i kawea mai ai e matou he whakahere ma Ihowa, e ia tangata, e ia tangata, tana i whiwhi ai, etahi mea koura, etahi mekameka, poroporo, mowhiti, whakakai, heitiki hoki, hei whakamarie mo o matou wairua ki te aroaro o Ihowa.
51 And Moses and Eleazar the priest received all the gold in its various kinds,
Na ka tangohia e Mohi raua ko Ereatara tohunga te koura i a ratou, he mea mahi katoa.
52 weighing sixteen thousand seven hundred fifty shekels, from the tribunes and the centurions.
A kotahi tekau ma ono mano e whitu rau e rima tekau hekere o te koura katoa o te whakahere i tapaea e ratou ki a Ihowa, o ta nga rangatira mano ratou ko nga rangatira rau.
53 For whatever each one had taken away in the spoils was his own.
I pahuatia hoki e nga tangata i whakawhai etahi taonga, tena mona ake, tena mona ake.
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.
Na tangohia ana e Mohi raua ko Ereatara tohunga te koura a nga rangatira o nga mano, o nga rau, a kawea ana e raua ki roto ki te tapenakara o te whakaminenga, hei whakamahara mo nga tama a Iharaira ki te aroaro o Ihowa.
