Numbers 25
1 And Israel abode in Shittim, and the people began to commit incest with the daughters of Moab.
Morabatur autem eo tempore Israel in Setim, et fornicatus est populus cum filiabus Moab,
2 And they called the people unto the sacrifices of their gods: and the people did eat, and bowed themselves down to their gods.
quae vocaverunt eos ad sacrificia sua. At ille comederunt et adoraverunt deos earum.
3 And Israel joined themselves unto Baal-peor; and the anger of the Lord was kindled against Israel.
Initiatusque est Israel Beelphegor: et iratus Dominus,
4 And the Lord said unto Moses, Take all the heads of the people, and [cause them to] hang the [guilty] up before the Lord, in the face of the sun, that the fierce anger of the Lord may be turned away from Israel.
ait ad Moysen: Tolle cunctos principes populi, et suspende eos contra solem in patibulis: ut avertatur furor meus ab Israel.
5 And Moses said unto the judges of Israel, Slay ye every one his men that have been joined unto Baal-peor.
Dixitque Moyses ad Iudices Israel: Occidat unusquisque proximos suos, qui initiati sunt Beelphegor.
6 And, behold, one of the children of Israel came, and brought unto his brethren a Midianitish woman, before the eyes of Moses, and before the eyes of all the congregation of the children of Israel, and these were weeping by the door of the tabernacle of the congregation.
Et ecce unus de filiis Israel intravit coram fratribus suis ad scortum Madianitidem, vidente Moyse, et omni turba filiorum Israel, qui flebant ante fores tabernaculi.
7 And when Phinehas, the son of Elazar, the son of Aaron the priest, saw it, he rose up from the midst of the congregation, and took a javelin in his hand;
Quod cum vidisset Phinees filius Eleazari filii Aaron sacerdotis, surrexit de medio multitudinis, et arrepto pugione,
8 And he went after the man of Israel into the tent, and thrust both of them through, the man of Israel, and the woman through her body: and the plague was stayed from the children of Israel.
ingressus est post virum Israelitem in lupanar, et perfodit ambos simul, virum scilicet et mulierem in locis genitalibus. Cessavitque plaga a filiis Israel:
9 And those that died in the plague were twenty and four thousand.
et occisi sunt vigintiquattuor millia hominum.
10 And the Lord spoke unto Moses, saying,
Dixitque Dominus ad Moysen:
11 Phinehas, the son of Elazar, the son of Aaron the priest, hath turned away my wrath from the children of Israel, while he was zealous in my stead in the midst of them, that I consumed not the children of Israel in my indignation.
Phinees filius Eleazari filii Aaron sacerdotis avertit iram meam a filiis Israel: quia zelo meo commotus est contra eos, ut non ipse delerem filios Israel in zelo meo.
12 Therefore say, Behold, I give unto him my covenant of peace;
idcirco loquere ad eum: Ecce do ei pacem foederis mei,
13 And it shall be unto him and unto his seed after him a covenant of an everlasting priesthood; because he was zealous for his God, and made an atonement for the children of Israel.
et erit tam ipsi quam semini eius pactum sacerdotii sempiternum, quia zelatus est pro Deo suo, et expiavit scelus filiorum Israel.
14 Now the name of the man of Israel that was slain, who was slain with the Midianitish woman, was Zimri, the son of Sahlu, a prince of a family division among the Simeonites.
Erat autem nomen viri Israelitae, qui occisus est cum Madianitide, Zambri filius Salu, dux de cognatione et tribu Simeonis.
15 And the name of the Midianitish woman that was slain was Cozbi, the daughter of Zur; he was head of tribes, of a family division in Midian.
Porro mulier Madianitis, quae pariter interfecta est, vocabatur Cozbi filia Sur principis nobilissimi Madianitarum.
16 And the Lord spoke unto Moses, saying,
Locutusque est Dominus ad Moysen, dicens:
17 Attack the Midianites and smite them;
Hostes vos sentiant Madianitae, et percutite eos:
18 For they are enemies unto 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 for the sake of Peor.
quia et ipsi hostiliter egerunt contra vos, et decepere insidiis per idolum Phogor, et Cozbi filiam ducis Madian sororem suam, quae percussa est in die plagae pro sacrilegio Phogor.
