Numbers 31
1 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,
BOEIPA loh Moses te. a voek tih,
2 Avenge the wrongs of the children of Israel on the Madianites, and afterwards you shall be added to your people.
“Na pilnam te coi lamtah Israel ca rhoek kah tawnlohnah neh Median soah phulo laeh,” a ti nah.
3 And Moses spoke to the people, saying, Arm some of you, and set yourselves in array before the Lord against Madian, to inflict vengeance on Madian from the Lord.
Te dongah Moses loh pilnam te. a voek tih, “Na taeng lamkah hlang rhoek te caempuei la pumcum saeh lamtah Midian soah BOEIPA kah, tawnlohnah paek ham Midian cuuk uh thil saeh.
4 Send a thousand of each tribe from all the tribes of the children of Israel to set themselves in array.
Israel koca boeih khui lamloh koca khat ah thawng khat, koca khat ah thawng khat rhip te caempuei la tueih uh,” a ti nah.
5 And they numbered of the thousands of Israel a thousand of [each] tribe, twelve thousands; [these were] armed for war.
Te dongah Israel. a thawng a thawng khui lamloh koca khat ah thawng khat te hol uh tih thawng hlai nit te caempuei la pumcum uh.
6 And Moses sent them away a thousand of every tribe with their forces, and Phinees the son of Eleazar the son of Aaron the priest: and the holy instruments, and the signal trumpets [were] in their hands.
Te phoeiah Moses loh amih koca pakhat lamkah thawng te caempuei la. a tueih. Te vaengah khosoih Eleazar capa Phinekha khaw, a kut dongkah hmuencim hnopai neh tamlung olueng neh caempuei la cet.
7 And they set themselves in array against Madian, as the Lord commanded Moses; and they killed every male.
Te dongah BOEIPA loh Moses te a uen bangla Midian te. a muk uh tih tongpa boeih te a ngawn uh.
8 And they killed the kings of Madian together with their slain [subjects]; even Evi and Rocon, and Sur, and Ur, and Roboc, five kings of Madian; and they killed with the sword Balaam the son of Beor with their [other] slain.
Midian manghai rhoek, te khaw, amih kah, rhok dongah. a ngawn uh. Midian manghai panga, Evi neh Rekem khaw, Zur neh Hur khaw, Reba neh Beor capa Balaam khaw, cunghang neh. a ngawn uh.
9 And they made a prey of the women of Madian, and their store, and their cattle, and all their possessions: and they spoiled their forces.
Israel ca rhoek loh Midian kah huta camoe khaw a rhamsa boeih neh a boiva boeih a mawt uh tih a thadueng boeih khaw a poelyoe pauh.
10 And they burnt with fire all their cities in the places of their habitation and they burnt their villages with fire.
Amih kah, tolrhum lakli, a khopuei boeih neh a lumim boeih khaw, hmai neh. a hoeh pa uh.
11 And they took all their plunder, and all their spoils, both man and beast.
Kutbuem boeih khaw, hlang neh rhamsa dongkah a hnorhawt boeih khaw a khuen uh.
12 And they brought to Moses and to Eleazar the priest, and to all the children of Israel, the captives, and the spoils, and the plunder, to the camp to Araboth Moab, which is at Jordan by Jericho.
Te phoeiah tamna neh kutbuem hnorhawt te khaw Jerikho kah, Jordan kaep, Moab kolken kah rhaehhmuen kah Moses taeng neh khosoih Eleazar taengah, Israel ca rhaengpuei taengla. a khuen uh.
13 And Moses and Eleazar the priest and all the rulers of the synagogue went forth out of the camp to meet them.
Moses, khosoih Eleazar neh rhaengpuei kah, khoboei boeih khaw, amih doe hamla rhaehhmuen vongvoel la tawn uh.
14 And Moses was angry with the captains of the host, the heads of thousands and the heads of hundreds who came from the battle-array.
Tedae caem aka soep thawng khat mangpa rhoek, neh caempuei caemtloek lamkah aka pawk yakhat mangpa taengah Moses. a thintoek.
15 And Moses said to them, Why have you saved every female alive?
Te phoeiah amih te Moses loh, “Huta tah boeih na hlun uh nama?”.
16 For they were [the occasion] to the children of Israel by the word of Balaam of their revolting and despising the word of the Lord, because of Phogor; and there was a plague in the congregation of the Lord.
Peor kah, olka dongah BOEIPA taeng lamloh boekoeknah la hol uh ham Balaam kah, ol lamloh Israel ca rhoek, taengla amih ha pawk coeng ne. Te dongah ni lucik loh BOEIPA kah, hlangboel. a tlak thil.
17 Now then kill every male in all the spoil, kill every woman, who has known the lying with man.
Te dongah camoe lakli kah tongpa boeih te ngawn uh lamtah tongpa kah, thingkong dongah tongpa aka ming huta boeih khaw, ngawn uh.
18 And as for all the captivity of women, who have not known the lying with man, save you them alive.
Tedae huta khuiah khaw, tongpa kah, thingkong aka ming hlan camoe boeih tah namamih ham hlun uh.
19 And you shall encamp outside the [great] camp seven days; every one who has slain and who touches a dead body, shall be purified on the third day, and you and your captivity [shall purify yourselves] on the seventh day.
Nangmih hinglu aka ngawn boeih neh rhok aka ben boeih tah hnin rhih khuiah rhaehhmuen vongvoel la rhaeh uh. A hnin thum neh. a hnin rhih dongah namamih neh na tamna te khaw cilpoe uh.
20 And you shall purify every garment and every leather utensil, and all furniture of goat skin, and every wooden vessel.
Himbai boeih neh maehpho dongkah hnopai boeih, maae lamkah bitat boeih neh thing hnopai boeih khaw, cilpoe uh,” a ti nah.
21 And Eleazar the priest said to the men of the host that came from the battle-array, This [is] the ordinance of the law which the Lord has commanded Moses.
BOEIPA loh Moses taengah a uen bangla olkhueng dongkah khosing he, khosoih Eleazar loh caemtloek la aka cet caempuei hlang rhoek, taengah,
22 Beside the gold, and the silver, and the brass, and the iron, and lead, and tin,
“Sui neh cak, rhohum, thi, samphae neh kawnlawk,
23 every thing that shall pass through the fire shall so be clean, nevertheless it shall be purified with the water of sanctification; and whatever will not pass through the fire shall pass through water.
Hmai aka khoeng hno boeih tah hmai ah caeh sak uh lamtah caihcil bitni. Pumom tui neh cilpoe saeh lamtah hmai loh a khoeng pawt boeih tah tui dongah caeh sak uh.
24 And on the seventh day you shall wash your garments, and be clean; and afterwards you shall come into the camp.
A hnin rhih dongah na himbai te na suk uh tih na caihcil uh phoeiah rhaehhmuen la kun uh,” a ti nah.
25 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,
BOEIPA loh Moses te. a voek tih,
26 Take the sum of the spoils of the captivity both of man and beast, you and Eleazar the priest, and the heads of the families of the congregation.
Hnorhawt dongkah hlangmi te, na hlang kah tamna neh rhamsa khaw, khosoih Eleazar neh rhaengpuei kah a napa rhoek, hlangmi khaw, tae uh.
27 And you shall divide the spoils between the warriors that went out to battle, and the whole congregation.
Caempuei la. a khuen tih caem aka tu laklo neh rhaengpuei boeih laklo ah hnorhawt te tael pah.
28 And you shall take a tribute for the Lord from the warriors that went out to battle; one soul out of five hundred, from the men, and from the cattle, even from the oxen, and from the sheep, and from the asses; and you shall take from their half.
Caempuei la aka cet caemtloek hlang rhoek khui lamloh ya nga vaengah hinglu pakhat tah hlang khaw, saelhung khaw, laak khaw, boiva khaw BOEIPA taengah mangmu la tloeng.
29 And you shall give [them] to Eleazar the priest [as] the first fruits of the Lord.
A rhakthuem te lo lamtah BOEIPA kah, khosaa la khosoih Eleazar ham pae.
30 And from the half belonging to the children of Israel you shall take one in fifty from the men, and from the oxen, and from the sheep, and from the asses, and from all the cattle; and you shall give them to the Levites that keep the charges in the tabernacle of the Lord.
Israel ca rhoek kah te a rhakthuem ah coelh pah. Sawmnga lamloh pakhat tah hlang khaw, saelhung khaw, laak khaw, boiva khaw, rhamsa khaw, boeih tu lamtah BOEIPA kah, dungtlungim loh a kuek aka ngaithuen Levi taengah pae,” a ti nah.
31 And Moses and Eleazar the priest did as the Lord commanded Moses.
BOEIPA loh Moses. a uen vanbangla Moses neh khosoih Eleazar loh a saii.
32 And that which remained of the spoil which the warriors took, was—of the sheep, six hundred and seventy-five thousand:
Caempuei pilnam loh a poelyoe hnorhawt dong lamloh maeh coih la aka om he boiva he thawng ya rhuk neh thawng sawmrhih thawng nga,
33 and oxen, seventy-two thousand:
saelhung thawng sawmrhih neh thawng, hnih,
34 and asses, sixty-one thousand.
Laak thawng sawmrhuk neh thawng, khat lo.
35 And persons of women who had not known lying with man, all the souls, thirty-two thousand.
Hlang kah, hinglu khaw tongpa kah, thingkong aka ming pawh huta he. a pum la hinglu thawng sawmthum thawng, nit lo.
36 And the half, [even] the portion of them that went out to war, from the number of the sheep, was three hundred and thirty-seven thousand and five hundred.
Caempuei la aka kun kah, hamsum rhakthuem he a pum la boiva thawng ya thum neh thawng sawmthum thawng rhih ya nga lo.
37 And the tribute to the Lord from the sheep was six hundred and seventy-five.
BOEIPA kah mangmu te boiva dong lamloh ya rhuk sawmrhih panga,
38 And the oxen, six and thirty thousand, and the tribute to the Lord seventy-two.
Saelhung thawng sawmthum thawng, rhuk lo. Te vaengah BOEIPA ham amih kah, mangmu te sawmrhih pumnit lo.
39 And asses, thirty thousand and five hundred, and the tribute to the Lord, sixty-one:
Laak thawng thumkip neh ya nga vaengah BOEIPA ham amih mangmu pum sawmrhuk pakhat lo.
40 and the persons, sixteen thousand, and the tribute of them to the Lord, thirty-two souls.
Hlang kah, hinglu khaw, thawng hlai rhuk vaengah BOEIPA ham amih kah, mangmu te hinglu thumkip panit lo.
41 And Moses gave the tribute to the Lord, the heave-offering of God, to Eleazar the priest, as the Lord commanded Moses;
Te dongah BOEIPA loh Moses. a uen vanbangla BOEIPA kah, khosaa mangmu te Moses loh khosoih Eleazar taengah. a paek.
42 from the half belonging to the children of Israel, whom Moses separated from the men of war.
Israel ca rhakthuem lamloh caem aka muk hlang taeng lamkah khaw Moses loh a tael pah.
43 And the half [taken] from the sheep, belonging to the congregation, was three hundred and thirty-seven thousand and five hundred.
Hlangboel rhakthuem lamloh boiva thawng ya thum neh thawng sawmthum thawng rhih ya nga lo.
44 And the oxen, thirty-six thousand;
Saelhung he thawng thumkip neh thawng rhuk lo.
45 asses, thirty thousand and five hundred;
Laak thawng sawmthum neh ya nga lo.
46 and persons, sixteen thousand.
Hlang kah hinglu thawng hlai rhuk lo.
47 And Moses took of the half belonging to the children of Israel the fifties part, of men and of cattle, and he gave them to the Levites who keep the charges of the tabernacle of the Lord, as the Lord commanded Moses.
Israel ca rhoek, rhakthuem dongkah te Moses. a loh. Sawmnga ah pakhat tah hlang lamkah khaw, rhamsa lamkah khaw a loh tih BOEIPA loh Moses. a uen bangla BOEIPA dungtlungim kah a kuek aka ngaithuen Levi taengah. a paek.
48 And all those who were appointed to be officers of thousands of the host, captains of thousands and captains of hundreds, approached Moses, and said to Moses,
Te phoeiah caempuei a thawng thawng aka soep, thawng khat mangpa rhoek, neh yakhat mangpa rhoek tahMoses taengla mop uh.
49 Your servants have taken the sum of the men of war with us, and not one is missing.
Moses taengah, “Na sal rhoek loh caemtloek hlang rhoek kah boeilu te. a tae uh vaengah mamih lamkah he kaimih kut hmuiah hlang he a hmaai moenih.
50 And we have brought our gift to the Lord, [every] man who has found an article of gold, whether an armlet, or a chain, or a ring, or a bracelet, or a clasp for hair, to make atonement for us before the Lord.
Te dongah BOEIPA mikhmuh ah kaimih kah hinglu ham aka dawth la hlang loh a hmuh sui hnopai, cak neh khungpak, kutcaeng, hnathawn neh oilung te BOEIPA nawnnah ham kang khuen,” a ti uh.
51 And Moses and Eleazar the priest took the gold from them, even every wrought article.
Te dongah Moses neh khosoih loh Eleazar amih taeng lamkah sui neh kutsai hnopai boeih te. a doe.
52 And all the wrought gold, even the offering that they offered to the Lord, was sixteen thousand and seven hundred and fifty shekels from the captains of thousands and the captains of hundreds.
Te dongah thawngkhat mangpa rhoek neh yakhat mangpa rhoek taeng lamloh BOEIPA taengah khosaa la a tloeng uh sui boeih he shekel thawng hlai rhuk ya rhih sawmnga lo.
53 For the men of war took plunder every one for himself.
Caempuei hlang rhoek long khaw amah kah hlang te a poelyoe uh.
54 And Moses and Eleazar the priest took the gold from the captains of thousands and captains of hundreds, and brought the vessels into the tabernacle of witness, a memorial of the children of Israel before the Lord.
Te phoeiah Moses neh khosoih Eleazar loh thawngkhat neh yakhat mangpa rhoek, lamkah sui te. a doe tih tingtunnah dap la BOEIPA mikhmuh ah Israel ca rhoek, ham poekkoepnah. la a khuen.
