1 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,

And he spoke Yahweh to Moses saying.

2 Avenge the children of Israel of the Midianites: afterward shalt thou be gathered unto thy people.

Avenge [the] vengeance of [the] people of Israel from with the Midianites (after *L(P)*) you will be gathered to people your.

3 And Moses spake unto the people, saying, Arm ye men from among you for the war, that they may go against Midian, to execute the LORD’S vengeance on Midian.

And he spoke Moses to the people saying be equipped from with you men for war so they may be on Midian to give [the] vengeance of Yahweh on Midian.

4 Of every tribe a thousand, throughout all the tribes of Israel, shall ye send to the war.

One thousand to the tribe one thousand to the tribe for all [the] tribes of Israel you will send out to war.

5 So there were delivered, out of the thousands of Israel, a thousand of every tribe, twelve thousand armed for war.

And they were selected from [the] thousands of Israel one thousand to the tribe two [plus] ten thousand armed [men] of war.

6 And Moses sent them, a thousand of every tribe, to the war, them and Phinehas the son of Eleazar the priest, to the war, with the vessels of the sanctuary and the trumpets for the alarm in his hand.

And he sent them Moses one thousand to the tribe to war them and Phinehas [the] son of Eleazar the priest to war and [the] vessels of the holy place and [the] trumpets of the alarm [were] in hand his.

7 And they warred against Midian, as the LORD commanded Moses; and they slew every male.

And they waged war on Midian just as he had commanded Yahweh Moses and they killed every male.

8 And they slew the kings of Midian with the rest of their slain; Evi, and Rekem, and Zur, and Hur, and Reba, the five kings of Midian: Balaam also the son of Beor they slew with the sword.

And [the] kings of Midian they killed with slain [ones] their Evi and Rekem and Zur and Hur and Reba [the] five [the] kings of Midian and Balaam [the] son of Beor they killed with the sword.

9 And the children of Israel took captive the women of Midian and their little ones; and all their cattle, and all their flocks, and all their goods, they took for a prey.

And they took captive [the] people of Israel [the] women of Midian and little one[s] their and all cattle their and all livestock their and all wealth their they plundered.

10 And all their cities in the places wherein they dwelt, and all their encampments, they burnt with fire.

And all cities their in dwelling places their and all encampments their they burned with fire.

11 And they took all the spoil, and all the prey, both of man and of beast.

And they took all the plunder and all the booty among humankind and among the livestock.

12 And they brought the captives, and the prey, and the spoil, unto Moses, and unto Eleazar the priest, and unto the congregation of the children of Israel, unto the camp at the plains of Moab, which are by the Jordan at Jericho.

And they brought to Moses and to Eleazar the priest and to [the] congregation of [the] people of Israel the captive[s] and the booty and the plunder to the camp to [the] plains of Moab which [were] at [the] Jordan of Jericho.

13 And Moses, and Eleazar the priest, and all the princes of the congregation, went forth to meet them without the camp.

And they went out Moses and Eleazar the priest and all [the] leaders of the congregation to meet them to from [the] outside of the camp.

14 And Moses was wroth with the officers of the host, the captains of thousands and the captains of hundreds, which came from the service of the war.

And he was angry Moses towards [the] officers of the army [the] commanders of the thousands and [the] commanders of the hundreds who were coming from [the] war of the battle.

15 And Moses said unto them, Have ye saved all the women alive?

And he said to them Moses ¿ have you let live every female.

16 Behold, these caused the children of Israel, through the counsel of Balaam, to commit trespass against the LORD in the matter of Peor, and so the plague was among the congregation of the LORD.

There! they they were to [the] people of Israel by [the] word of Balaam to offer unfaithfulness in Yahweh on [the] matter of Peor and it was the plague among [the] congregation of Yahweh.

17 Now therefore kill every male among the little ones, and kill every woman that hath known man by lying with him.

And therefore kill every male among the little one[s] and every woman [who has] known a man to [the] lying of a male kill.

18 But all the women children, that have not known man by lying with him, keep alive for yourselves.

And all the little one[s] among the women who not they have known lying of a male preserve alive for yourselves.

19 And encamp ye without the camp seven days: whosoever hath killed any person, and whosoever hath touched any slain, purify yourselves on the third day and on the seventh day, ye and your captives.

And you encamp from [the] outside of the camp seven days any [one who] has killed anyone and any - [one who] has touched the [one] slain you will purify yourselves on the day third and on the day seventh you and captive[s] your.

20 And as to every garment, and all that is made of skin, and all work of goats’ [hair], and all things made of wood, ye shall purify yourselves.

And every garment and every article of hide and every product of goat hair and every article of wood you will purify yourselves.

21 And Eleazar the priest said unto the men of war which went to the battle, This is the statute of the law which the LORD hath commanded Moses:

And he said Eleazar the priest to [the] men of the army who had gone to the battle this [is] [the] statute of the law which he commanded Yahweh Moses.

22 howbeit the gold, and the silver, the brass, the iron, the tin, and the lead,

Only the gold and the silver the bronze the iron the tin and the lead.

23 every thing that may abide the fire, ye shall make to go through the fire, and it shall be clean; nevertheless it shall be purified with the water of separation: and all that abideth not the fire ye shall make to go through the water.

Every thing which it will go in the fire you will make pass in the fire and it will be pure nevertheless by [the] water of impurity it will purify itself and all that not it will go in the fire you will make pass in the water.

24 And ye shall wash your clothes on the seventh day, and ye shall be clean, and afterward ye shall come into the camp.

And you will wash clothes your on the day seventh and you will be pure and after you will come to the camp.

25 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,

And he said Yahweh to Moses saying.

26 Take the sum of the prey that was taken, both of man and of beast, thou, and Eleazar the priest, and the heads of the fathers’ [houses] of the congregation:

Lift up [the] head of [the] booty of captivity among humankind and among the livestock you and Eleazar the priest and [the] leaders of [the] fathers of the congregation.

27 and divide the prey into two parts; between the men skilled in war, that went out to battle, and all the congregation:

And you will divide the booty between [those] skilled of the battle who went out to war and between all the congregation.

28 and levy a tribute unto the LORD of the men of war that went out to battle: one soul of five hundred, [both] of the persons, and of the beeves, and of the asses, and of the flocks:

And you will raise a tax for Yahweh from with [the] men of war who went out to war one person from [the] five hundred from humankind and from the cattle and from the donkeys and from the sheep.

29 take it of their half, and give it unto Eleazar the priest, for the LORD’S heave offering.

From half their you will take [it] and you will give [it] to Eleazar the priest [the] contribution of Yahweh.

30 And of the children of Israel’s half, thou shalt take one drawn out of every fifty, of the persons, of the beeves, of the asses, and of the flocks, [even] of all the cattle, and give them unto the Levites, which keep the charge of the tabernacle of the LORD.

And he took Moses from [the] half of [the] people of Israel those drawn one from the fifty from humankind and from the livestock and he gave them to the Levites [who] keep [the] service of [the] tabernacle of Yahweh just as he had commanded Yahweh Moses.

48 And the officers which were over the thousands of the host, the captains of thousands, and the captains of hundreds, came near unto Moses:

And they drew near to Moses the officers who [were] of [the] thousands of the army [the] commanders of the thousands and [the] commanders of the hundreds.

49 and they said unto Moses, Thy servants have taken the sum of the men of war which are under our charge, and there lacketh not one man of us.

And they said to Moses servants your they have lifted up [the] head of [the] men of war who [were] in hand our and not he is missing from us anyone.
