Numbers 31
1 The Lord told Moses,
Hina Gode da Mousesema amane sia: i,
2 “Punish the Midianites because of what they did to the Israelites. After that you will join your forefathers in death.”
“Midia: ne dunu da Isala: ili fi ilima wadela: le hamoi. Amaiba: le, ilima se dabe iasu ima. Amo hamonanu, di da bogosu ba: mu.”
3 Moses instructed the people, “Have some of your men get ready for battle, so they can go and attack the Midianites and carry out the Lord's punishment on them.
Amaiba: le, Mousese da Isala: ili dunu ilima amane sia: i, “Gegemusa: momagema! Dilia da Midia: ne fi doagala: le, amola ilia da Hina Godema wadela: le hamobeba: le, ilima se dabe ima.
4 You are to contribute one thousand men from each Israelite tribe.”
Isala: ili fi afae afae amoga 1000 dunu agoane gegemusa: asunasima.”
5 So one thousand men were chosen from each Israelite tribe, making twelve thousand troops ready for battle.
Amaiba: le, Isala: ili fi afae afae da dunu 1000 agoane ilegei. Huluane da dunu 12,000 amola huluane da gegemusa: momagei.
6 Moses sent them into battle, one thousand from each tribe, together with Phinehas, son of Eleazar the priest. He carried with him the holy objects from the sanctuary and the trumpets used for giving signals.
Mousese da amo dunu gegemusa: asunasi. E da Finia: se (Elia: isa, gobele salasu dunu amo egefe) amo dunu ili bisimusa: asunasi. E da Hina Gode Abula Diasu sema liligi gaguli asi amola dawa: digisu wesu dalabede amola gaguli asi.
7 They attacked the Midianites, as the Lord had told Moses to do, and they killed all the men.
Ilia da Hina Gode Ea Mousesema hamoma: ne sia: i defele, Midia: ne dunu doagala: le, dunu huluane medole legei dagoi.
8 Among those killed were the five kings of Midian, Evi, Rekem, Zur, Hur, and Reba. They also killed Balaam, son of Beor, with the sword.
Ilia da Midia: ne hina bagade biyale gala amo Ifai, Legeme, Sua, Hua amola Liba, medole legei. Amola ilia da Ba: ila: me (Bio egefe) amo medole legei.
9 The Israelites captured the Midianite women and children, and they took as plunder all their herds, flocks, and possessions.
Isala: ili dunu da Midia: ne uda amola mano huluane doagala: le lai, amola ilia bulamagau amola ohe fi huluane lai. Ilia liligi amola muni huluane lale,
10 They set fire to all the Midianite towns and camps where they had lived,
ilia moilai amola fisisu huluane laluga ulagi.
11 and carried away all the plunder and loot, including people and animals.
Ilia da liligi lai amola Midia: ne uda amola mano amola ohe huluane amo lale,
12 They brought the prisoners, loot, and plunder to Moses, to Eleazar the priest, and to the rest of the Israelites where they were camped on the plains of Moab, beside the Jordan opposite Jericho.
Mousese, Elia: isa amola Isala: ili dunu huluane ilima oule misi. Isala: ili dunu ilia fisisu, da Moua: be umiga, Yodane hano eso mabe bega: dialebe ba: i. Yeligou moilai bai bagade da hano na: iyadodili ba: i.
13 Moses, Eleazar the priest, and all the Israelite leaders went out of the camp to meet them.
Mousese, Elia: isa amola Isala: ili ouligisu dunu huluane da fisisu fisili, dadi gagui dunu yosia: musa: gadili asi.
14 Moses was angry with the army officers, the commanders of thousands and commanders of hundreds, who returned from the battle.
Mousese da dadi gagui ouligisu dunu (amo da gegemusa: asili sinidigi. Ilia afae afae da dadi gagui gilisisu bagade amola fonobahadi amo ouligi) ilima ougi galu.
15 “Why did you let all the women live?” he asked them.
E da ilima adole ba: i, “Dilia da abuliba: le uda huluane esaloma: ne fisiagabela: ?
16 “You realize that these were the women seduced the Israelite men, leading them to be unfaithful to the Lord at Peor, following Balaam's advice! That's why the Lord's people suffered from the plague!
Bu dawa: ma! Amo uda ilia da Ba: ila: me ea olelesu amo fa: no bobogele, Bio goumi amogawi, Isala: ili dunu Hina Gode Ea hou fisima: ne olelei. Olo bagade Hina Gode Ea fi dunuma misi, amo ea bai da goea.
17 So go and kill all the boys and every woman who has had slept with a man.
Wali goi huluane amola uda amo da dunuma gilisili golai huluane, amo medole legema.
18 Let all the girls who are virgins live. They are yours.
Be dilia lama: ne, uda mano amola uda da dunuma gilisili hame golai, amo esaloma: ne fisiagama.
19 All those of you who killed someone or touched a dead body must stay outside the camp for seven days. Purify yourselves and your prisoners on the third day and the seventh day.
Amola dilia! Nowa da dunu medole legei o bogoi da: i hodo digili ba: i galea, dilia fisisu gadili eso fesuale esaloma. Eso osoda amola eso fesu amoga dilia da: i amola uda amo dilia samogele lai amo huluane sema dodofesu hou hamoma.
20 Also purify all your clothing garment and anything made of leather, goat's hair, or wood.”
Amola dilia abula huluane amola liligi amo da bulamagau gadofo o goudi hinabo o ifa amoga hamoi amo huluane sema dodofesu hou hamoma.”
21 Eleazar the priest told the soldiers who had gone into battle, “These are the legal regulations that the Lord has ordered Moses to be carried out:
Gobele salasu dunu Elia: isa da gegena asi buhagi dunuma amane sia: i, “Malasu amo Hina Gode da Mousesema i da goea.
22 All that's made of gold, silver, bronze, iron, tin, and lead—
Liligi huluane amo da nemu gogolei (gouli, silifa, balase, gula, dini, lede, amola enoenoi) dilia lalu gobele dodofemu. Liligi huluane enoenoi, dilia sema dodofesu hano amoga dodofema.
23 anything that doesn't burn—must be put through fire to make it clean. But it still has to be purified using water of purification. Anything that burns must be put through the water.
24 Wash your clothes on the seventh day and you will be clean. Then you can enter the camp.”
Eso fesu amoga dilia abula dodofema. Amasea dilia da sema dodofei dagoiba: le, fisisu amo ganodini sa: ima: ne logo doasi dagoi ba: mu.”
25 The Lord told Moses,
Hina Gode da Mousesema amane sia: i,
26 “You, Eleazar the priest, and the Israelite family leaders are to take a record of the people and animals that were captured.
“Di, Elia: isa amola Isala: ili fi ouligisu dunu huluane da lai liligi huluane (amo da uda amola ohe samogele lai) amo idima.
27 Then divide them between the troops who went into battle and the rest of the Israelites.
Lai liligi amo dogoadafa momogima. Na: iyado mogi amo dadi gagui dunu iligili ima, amola na: iyado la: idi da Isala: ili dunu huluanema ima.
28 Take as a contribution to the Lord from what is allocated to the troops who went into battle one out of every five hundred people, cattle, donkeys, or sheep.
Dadi gagui ilia lai amoga Hina Godema ima: ne agoane lama. Udigili hawa: hamosu uda 500 gilisisu afae afae amoga uda afae ima. Amola sibi, bulamagau, dougi amola goudi 500 gilisisu amoga ohe afae defele ima.
29 Take this from their half share and give it to Eleazar the priest as an offering to the Lord.
Amo liligi Hina Godema iasudafa ima: ne, gobele salasu dunu Elia: isa ema ima.
30 From the Israelites; half share, take one out of every fifty people, cattle, donkeys, or sheep, or other animals, and give them to the Levites who take care of the Lord's Tabernacle.”
Isala: ili dunu eno ilia lai liligi amoga udigili hawa: hamosu uda 50 gilisisu afae afae amoga uda afae ima amola bulamagau, dougi, sibi amola goudi 50 gilisisu afae afae amoga ohe afae defele ima. Lifai dunu da Hina Gode Ea Abula Diasu ouligisa. Amo liligi ilima ima.
31 Moses and Eleazar the priest did as the Lord had ordered Moses.
Mousese amola Elia: isa da Hina Gode Ea hamomusa: sia: i amo defele hamoi.
32 This was the list of plunder remaining that had been looted by the troops: 675,000 sheep,
Dadi gagui dunu da liligi lai mogili ilisu gagui. Eno liligi ea dedena sa: i da agoane: - Sibi amola goudi 675,000; bulamagau 72,000; dougi 6l, 000 amola dunuga hame dawa: digi uda 32,000.
33 72,000 cattle,
34 61,000 donkeys,
35 and 32,000 virgins.
36 This was the half share for those who had gone to fight: 337,500 sheep,
Dadi gagui ilia dogoa fifi mogi da: - Sibi amola goudi 337,500 (Hina Godema iasu da 675); Bulamagau 36,000 (Hina Godema iasu da 72); Dougi 30,500 (Hina Godema iasu da 61); dunuga hame dawa: digi uda 16,000 (Hina Godema iasu da 32).
37 with a contribution for the Lord of 675,
38 36,000 cattle, with a Lord's contribution of 72,
39 30,500 donkeys, with a Lord's contribution of 61,
40 and 16,000 people, with a Lord's contribution of 32.
41 Moses gave the contribution to Eleazar the priest as an offering to the Lord as the Lord had ordered Moses.
Amaiba: le, Mousese da Hina Gode Ea hamoma: ne sia: i defele, Hina Godema iasudafa ima: ne, amo ilegei liligi Elia: isa ema i dagoi.
42 The Israelites' half share left after Moses had given the half share to the troops who had gone to fight,
Isala: ili fi dunu huluane ilima dogoa fifi mogi da dadi gagui dunu ilia lai defele ba: i, agoane: - Sibi amola goudi 337,500; bulamagau 36,000; dougi 30,500; dunuga gilisili hame golai uda 16,000.
43 consisted of: 337,500 sheep,
44 36,000 cattle,
45 30,500 donkeys,
46 and 16,000 people.
47 Moses took from the Israelites' half one out of every fifty people and animals and gave them the Levites who take care of the Lord's Tabernacle, as the Lord had ordered him.
Amoga Mousese da Hina Gode Ea sia: i defele 50 gilisisu afae afae amoga afae lale, Lifai dunu (amo da Hina Gode Ea Abula Diasu ouligisu) ilima i.
48 The army officers, the commanders of thousands and commanders of hundreds, came to Moses
Amasea, dadi gagui ouligisu dunu (amo da Midia: ne dunuma gegesu ganodini, Isala: ili dadi gagui ouligi) ilia da Mousesema asili,
49 and told him, “We, your servants, have checked the troops we command and not a single man is missing.
ema sia: ne i, “Hina! Ninia da dadi gagui dunu amo nini ouligilalu, amo huluane idili dagole, afae hame fisiagai ba: i.
50 So we have brought the Lord an offering of the gold objects each man received—armlets, bracelets, rings, earrings, and necklaces—in order that we may be right before the Lord.”
Amaiba: le, ninia da gouliga nina: hamoi liligi, amola nabu, lobo fasele fesu, lobosogo salasu, gegagulu amola bida ga: su ninia lai, amo gaguli manebe goea. Hina Gode da nini gaga: iba: le, amola E da fa: no nini esalusu gaga: ma: ne, ninia da amo liligi Ema iaha.”
51 Moses and Eleazar the priest accepted from them all the objects made out of gold.
Mousese amola Elia: isa da amo liligi lai. Huluane da nina: hamoi liligi fawane gala.
52 The gold that the commanders of thousands and of hundreds gave as an offering to the Lord weighed in total 16,750 shekels.
Isala: ili dadi gagui ouligisu dunu ilia iabe huluane da gadenenewane 200 gilogala: me dioi defei amoma doaga: i.
53 (The men who had fought in the battle had each taken plunder for himself.)
Be dadi gagui dunudafa da ilia lai liligi, ilila: gagulaligi.
54 Moses and Eleazar the priest accepted the gold from the commanders of thousands and of hundreds and took it into the Tent of Meeting as a memorial offering for the Israelites in the presence of the Lord.
Amaiba: le, Hina Gode da Isala: ili dunu gaga: ma: ne, Mousese amola Elia: isa da gouli liligi huluane Hina Gode Ea Abula Diasuga gaguli asi.
