Numbers 25
1 Now Israel stayed in Shittim; and the people defiled themselves by having sexual relations with the women of Moab,
At ang Israel ay tumahan sa Sittim, at ang bayan ay nagpasimulang magkasala ng pakikiapid sa mga anak na babae ng Moab:
2 and they called the people to the sacrifices of their gods; and the people ate, and bowed down to their gods.
Sapagka't kanilang tinawag ang bayan sa mga hain sa kanilang mga dios; at ang bayan ay kumain at yumukod sa kanilang mga dios.
3 Israel joined himself to Baal Peor: and the anger of YHWH was kindled against Israel.
At ang Israel ay nakilakip sa diosdiosang Baal-peor; at ang galit ng Panginoon ay nagningas laban sa Israel.
4 YHWH said to Moses, "Take all the chiefs of the people, and hang them up to YHWH before the sun, that the fierce anger of YHWH may turn away from Israel."
At sinabi ng Panginoon kay Moises, Ipagsama mo ang lahat ng pangulo sa bayan at bitayin mo sila sa Panginoon sa harap ng araw, upang ang maningas na galit ng Panginoon ay mapawi sa Israel.
5 Moses said to the judges of Israel, "Everyone kill his men who have joined themselves to Baal Peor."
At sinabi ni Moises sa mga hukom sa Israel, Patayin ng bawa't isa sa inyo yaong mga nakilakip sa diosdiosang Baal-peor.
6 Look, one of the children of Israel came and brought to his brothers a Midianite woman in the sight of Moses, and in the sight of all the congregation of the children of Israel, while they were weeping at the door of the Tent of Meeting.
At, narito, isa sa mga anak ni Israel ay naparoon at nagdala sa kaniyang mga kapatid ng isang babaing Madianita sa paningin ni Moises, at sa paningin ng buong kapisanan ng mga anak ni Israel, samantalang sila'y umiiyak sa pintuan ng tabernakulo ng kapisanan.
7 When Phinehas, the son of Eleazar, the son of Aaron the priest, saw it, he rose up from the midst of the congregation, and took a spear in his hand;
At nang makita ni Phinees, na anak ni Eleazar, na anak ni Aaron na saserdote, ay tumindig siya sa gitna ng kapisanan, at humawak ng isang sibat sa kaniyang kamay;
8 and he went after the man of Israel into the pavilion, and thrust both of them through, the man of Israel, and the woman through her body. So the plague was stayed from the children of Israel.
At siya'y naparoon sa likod ng lalaking Israelita sa loob ng tolda, at kapuwa niya sinaksak, ang lalaking Israelita at ang babae sa kaniyang tiyan. Sa gayon ang salot ay natigil sa mga anak ni Israel.
9 Those who died by the plague were twenty-four thousand.
At yaong nangamatay sa salot ay dalawang pu't apat na libo.
10 YHWH spoke to Moses, saying,
At sinalita ng Panginoon kay Moises, na sinasabi,
11 "Phinehas, the son of Eleazar, the son of Aaron the priest, has turned my wrath away from the children of Israel, in that he was jealous with my jealousy among them, so that I did not consume the children of Israel in my jealousy.
Pinawi ni Phinees na anak ni Eleazar, na anak ni Aaron na saserdote, ang aking galit sa mga anak ni Israel, sa paraang siya'y nagsikap dahil sa aking pagsisikap sa kanila, na anopa't hindi ko nilipol ang mga anak ni Israel sa aking sikap.
12 Therefore say, 'Look, I give to him my covenant of peace:
Kaya't sabihin mo, Narito, ako'y nakikipagtipan sa kaniya tungkol sa kapayapaan:
13 and it shall be to him, and to his descendants after him, the covenant of an everlasting priesthood; because he was jealous for his God, and made atonement for the children of Israel.'"
At magiging kaniya, at sa kaniyang binhi pagkamatay niya, ang tipan ng pagkasaserdoteng walang hanggan; sapagka't siya'y nagsikap sa kaniyang Dios, at tumubos sa mga anak ni Israel.
14 Now the name of the man of Israel that was slain, who was slain with the Midianite woman, was Zimri, the son of Salu, a prince of a fathers' house among the Simeonites.
Ang pangalan nga ng lalaking Israelita na napatay, na pinatay na kalakip ng babaing Madianita ay Zimri na anak ni Salu, na prinsipe sa isang sangbahayan ng mga magulang sa mga Simeonita.
15 The name of the Midianite woman who was slain was Cozbi, the daughter of Zur; he was head of the people of a fathers' house in Midian.
At ang pangalan ng babaing Madianita na napatay ay Cozbi, na anak ni Zur; siya'y prinsipe sa bayan ng isang sangbahayan ng mga magulang sa Madian.
16 And YHWH spoke to Moses, saying, "Speak to the children of Israel, saying,
At sinalita ng Panginoon kay Moises, na sinasabi,
17 'Harass the Midianites, and strike them;
Bagabagin ninyo ang mga Madianita, at inyong saktan sila:
18 for they harassed you with their tricks, with which they have deceived you in the matter of Peor, and in the matter of Cozbi, the daughter of the prince of Midian, their sister, who was slain on the day of the plague in the matter of Peor.'"
Sapagka't kanilang binagabag kayo ng kanilang mga lalang na kanilang ipinangdaya sa inyo sa bagay ng Peor, at sa bagay ni Cozbi, na anak na babae ng prinsipe sa Madian, na kanilang kapatid na namatay nang kaarawan ng salot dahil sa Peor.
