Numbers 25
1 And Israel abode in Shittim; and the people began to commit fornication with the daughters of Moab.
Israel ficou em Shittim; e o povo começou a brincar de prostituta com as filhas de Moab;
2 And they invited the people to the sacrifices of their gods; and the people ate, and bowed down to their gods.
pois elas chamaram o povo para os sacrifícios de seus deuses. O povo comeu e se curvou diante de seus deuses.
3 And Israel joined himself to Baal-Peor; and the anger of Jehovah was kindled against Israel.
Israel se uniu a Baal Peor, e a raiva de Javé ardeu contra Israel.
4 And Jehovah said to Moses, Take all the heads of the people, and hang them up to Jehovah before the sun, that the fierce anger of Jehovah may be turned away from Israel.
Javé disse a Moisés: “Pegue todos os chefes do povo e pendure-os diante de Javé diante do sol, para que a raiva feroz de Javé se afaste de Israel”.
5 And Moses said to the judges of Israel, Slay every one his men that have joined themselves to Baal-Peor.
Moisés disse aos juízes de Israel: “Todos matam seus homens que se uniram a Baal Peor”.
6 And behold, a man of the children of Israel came and brought a Midianitish woman to his brethren, in the sight of Moses, and in the sight of the whole assembly of the children of Israel, who were weeping before the entrance of the tent of meeting.
Eis que um dos filhos de Israel veio e trouxe a seus irmãos uma mulher midianita aos olhos de Moisés e de toda a congregação dos filhos de Israel, enquanto choravam à porta da Tenda da Reunião.
7 And Phinehas, the son of Eleazar, the son of Aaron the priest, saw it, and rose up from among the assembly, and took a javelin in his hand,
Quando Phinehas, o filho de Eleazar, o filho de Arão, o sacerdote, viu isso, levantou-se do meio da congregação e pegou uma lança em sua mão.
8 and he went after the man of Israel into the tent-chamber, and thrust both of them through, the man of Israel and the woman through her belly. And the plague was stayed from the children of Israel.
Ele foi atrás do homem de Israel até o pavilhão, e empurrou ambos, o homem de Israel, e a mulher através de seu corpo. Então a peste foi detida entre os filhos de Israel.
9 And those that died in the plague were twenty-four thousand.
Os que morreram pela peste eram vinte e quatro mil.
10 And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,
Yahweh falou a Moisés, dizendo:
11 Phinehas, the son of Eleazar, the son of Aaron the priest, hath turned my wrath away from the children of Israel, in that he was jealous with my jealousy among them, so that I consumed not the children of Israel in my jealousy.
“Phinehas, o filho de Eleazar, o filho de Arão, o sacerdote, afastou minha ira dos filhos de Israel, pois tinha ciúmes com meu ciúme entre eles, para que eu não consumisse os filhos de Israel em meu ciúme.
12 Therefore say, Behold, I give unto him my covenant of peace!
Por isso diz: “Eis que eu lhe dou meu pacto de paz”.
13 And he shall have it, and his seed after him, the covenant of an everlasting priesthood; because he was jealous for his God, and made atonement for the children of Israel.
Será para ele, e para seus descendentes depois dele, o pacto de um sacerdócio eterno, porque teve inveja de seu Deus, e fez expiação pelos filhos de Israel””.
14 And the name of the man of Israel that was slain, who was slain with the Midianitish woman, was Zimri, the son of Salu, the prince of a father's house of the Simeonites.
Now o nome do homem de Israel que foi morto, que foi morto com a mulher midianita, era Zimri, o filho de Salu, príncipe da casa de um pai entre os simeonitas.
15 And the name of the Midianitish woman that was slain was Cozbi, the daughter of Zur; he was tribal head of a father's house in Midian.
O nome da mulher midianita que foi assassinada era Cozbi, a filha de Zur. Ele era o chefe do povo da casa de um pai em Midian.
16 And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,
Yahweh falou a Moisés, dizendo:
17 Harass the Midianites, and smite them,
“Ataquem os midianitas, e ataquem-nos;
18 for they have harassed you with their wiles, wherewith they have beguiled you in the matter of Peor, and in the matter of Cozbi, the daughter of a prince of Midian, their sister, who was slain on the day of the plague because of the matter of Peor.
pois eles o assediaram com suas artimanhas, em que o enganaram no caso de Peor, e no incidente relativo a Cozbi, a filha do príncipe de Midian, sua irmã, que foi assassinada no dia da praga no caso de Peor”.
