< Numbers 31 >
1 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
Yahweh falou a Moisés, dizendo:
2 Avenge the children of Israel of the Midianites: afterward shalt thou be gathered unto thy people.
“Vingar as crianças de Israel nos midianitas”. Depois disso, vocês serão reunidos ao seu povo”.
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.
Moisés falou ao povo, dizendo: “Armem homens dentre vocês para a guerra, para que possam ir contra Midian, para executar a vingança de Yahweh sobre Midian.
4 Of every tribe a thousand, throughout all the tribes of Israel, shall ye send to the war.
Vocês enviarão mil de cada tribo, de todas as tribos de Israel, para a guerra”.
5 So there were delivered, out of the thousands of Israel, a thousand of every tribe, twelve thousand armed for war.
So foram entregues, dos milhares de Israel, mil de cada tribo, doze mil armados para a guerra.
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.
Moisés os enviou, mil de cada tribo, para a guerra com Finéias, filho de Eleazar, o sacerdote, para a guerra, com os vasos do santuário e as trombetas para o alarme em sua mão.
7 And they warred against Midian, as the LORD commanded Moses; and they slew every male.
Eles lutaram contra Midian, como Yahweh ordenou a Moisés. Eles mataram todos os homens.
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.
Mataram os reis de Midiã com o resto de seus mortos: Evi, Rekem, Zur, Hur, e Reba, os cinco reis de Midiã. Eles também mataram Balaão, o filho de Beor, com a espada.
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.
Os filhos de Israel levaram as mulheres de Midian cativas com seus pequenos; e todo o seu gado, todos os seus rebanhos e todos os seus bens, eles levaram como pilhagem.
10 And all their cities in the places wherein they dwelt, and all their encampments, they burnt with fire.
Todas as suas cidades nos lugares em que viviam, e todos os seus acampamentos, queimavam com fogo.
11 And they took all the spoil, and all the prey, both of man and of beast.
Levaram todos os cativos, e todo o saque, tanto do homem como do animal.
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.
Levaram os cativos com a presa e o saque, a Moisés, e a Eleazar, o sacerdote, e à congregação dos filhos de Israel, ao acampamento nas planícies de Moab, que estão junto ao Jordão em Jericó.
13 And Moses, and Eleazar the priest, and all the princes of the congregation, went forth to meet them without the camp.
Moisés e Eleazar, o sacerdote, com todos os príncipes da congregação, saíram ao seu encontro fora do acampamento.
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.
Moisés ficou furioso com os oficiais do exército, os capitães de milhares e os capitães de centenas, que vieram do serviço da guerra.
15 And Moses said unto them, Have ye saved all the women alive?
Moisés disse-lhes: “Vocês salvaram todas as mulheres vivas?
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.
Eis que estas fizeram com que as crianças de Israel, através do conselho de Balaão, cometessem transgressão contra Javé no caso de Peor, e assim a praga estava entre a congregação de Javé.
17 Now therefore kill every male among the little ones, and kill every woman that hath known man by lying with him.
Agora, portanto, matem todos os homens entre os pequenos, e matem todas as mulheres que conheceram o homem, deitando-se com ele.
18 But all the women children, that have not known man by lying with him, keep alive for yourselves.
Mas todas as meninas, que não conheceram o homem deitando-se com ele, mantenham-se vivas para si mesmas.
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.
“Acampar fora do acampamento por sete dias. Quem matou qualquer pessoa, e quem tocou qualquer morto, purifiquem-se no terceiro dia e no sétimo dia, você e seus cativos.
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.
Purificareis toda vestimenta, e tudo o que é feito de pele, e todo o trabalho de pêlos de cabras, e todas as coisas feitas de madeira”.
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:
Eleazar, o sacerdote, disse aos homens de guerra que foram à batalha: “Este é o estatuto da lei que Yahweh ordenou a Moisés.
22 howbeit the gold, and the silver, the brass, the iron, the tin, and the lead,
Entretanto o ouro, a prata, o bronze, o ferro, o estanho e o chumbo,
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.
tudo o que possa resistir ao fogo, você fará para atravessar o fogo, e ele será limpo; no entanto, será purificado com a água para a impureza. Tudo o que não resistir ao fogo, você deverá fazer para atravessar a água.
24 And ye shall wash your clothes on the seventh day, and ye shall be clean, and afterward ye shall come into the camp.
Lavarão suas roupas no sétimo dia e estarão limpas. Depois, entrareis no acampamento”.
25 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
Yahweh falou a Moisés, dizendo:
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:
“Conte o saque que foi levado, tanto do homem quanto do animal, você, e Eleazar, o sacerdote, e os chefes de família dos pais da congregação;
27 and divide the prey into two parts; between the men skilled in war, that went out to battle, and all the congregation:
e divida o saque em duas partes: entre os homens hábeis na guerra, que saíram para a batalha, e toda a congregação.
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:
Levar um tributo a Javé dos homens de guerra que saíram para a batalha: uma alma de quinhentos; das pessoas, do gado, dos burros, e dos rebanhos.
29 take it of their half, and give it unto Eleazar the priest, for the LORD’S heave offering.
Pegue-a de sua metade e dê-a a Eleazar, o sacerdote, pela oferta da onda de 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.
Da metade dos filhos de Israel, tirareis um de cada cinqüenta, das pessoas, do gado, dos burros e dos rebanhos, de todo o gado, e os dareis aos levitas, que cumprem o dever do tabernáculo de Iavé”.
31 And Moses and Eleazar the priest did as the LORD commanded Moses.
Moisés e Eleazar, o sacerdote, fizeram como Yahweh ordenou a Moisés.
32 Now the prey, over and above the booty which the men of war took, was six hundred thousand and seventy thousand and five thousand sheep,
Agora o saque, além do saque que os homens de guerra levaram, era de seiscentas e setenta e cinco mil ovelhas,
33 and threescore and twelve thousand beeves,
seventy-dois mil cabeças de gado,
34 and threescore and one thousand asses,
sixty-um mil burros,
35 and thirty and two thousand persons in all, of the women that had not known man by lying with him.
e trinta e duas mil pessoas no total, das mulheres que não tinham conhecido o homem deitado com ele.
36 And the half, which was the portion of them that went out to war, was in number three hundred thousand and thirty thousand and seven thousand and five hundred sheep:
A metade, que foi a porção dos que saíram para a guerra, estava em número de trezentas e trinta e sete mil e quinhentas ovelhas;
37 and the LORD’S tribute of the sheep was six hundred and threescore and fifteen.
e a homenagem de Javé às ovelhas foi seiscentas e setenta e cinco.
38 And the beeves were thirty and six thousand; of which the LORD’S tribute was threescore and twelve.
O gado era de trinta e seis mil, dos quais a homenagem de Iavé era de setenta e dois.
39 And the asses were thirty thousand and five hundred; of which the LORD’S tribute was threescore and one.
Os burros eram trinta mil e quinhentos, dos quais o tributo de Iavé era sessenta e um.
40 And the persons were sixteen thousand; of whom the LORD’S tribute was thirty and two persons.
As pessoas eram dezesseis mil, das quais o tributo de Iavé era de trinta e duas pessoas.
41 And Moses gave the tribute, which was the LORD’S heave offering, unto Eleazar the priest, as the LORD commanded Moses.
Moisés deu o tributo, que era a oferta de onda de Iavé, a Eleazar, o sacerdote, como Iavé ordenou a Moisés.
42 And of the children of Israel’s half, which Moses divided off from the men that warred,
Da metade dos filhos de Israel, que Moisés dividiu dos homens que lutaram
43 (now the congregation’s half was three hundred thousand and thirty thousand, seven thousand and five hundred sheep,
(agora a metade da congregação era de trezentos e trinta e sete mil e quinhentas ovelhas,
44 and thirty and six thousand beeves,
thirty-seis mil cabeças de gado,
45 and thirty thousand and five hundred asses,
trinta e quinhentos burros,
46 and sixteen thousand persons; )
e dezesseis mil pessoas),
47 even of the children of Israel’s half, Moses took one drawn out of every fifty, both of man and of beast, and gave them unto the Levites, which kept the charge of the tabernacle of the LORD; as the LORD commanded Moses.
mesmo da metade dos filhos de Israel, Moisés tirou um de cada cinqüenta, tanto do homem como do animal, e os deu aos levitas, que cumpriram o dever do tabernáculo de Javé, como Javé ordenou a Moisés.
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:
Os oficiais que estavam acima dos milhares do exército, os capitães de milhares, e os capitães de centenas, aproximaram-se de Moisés.
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.
Eles disseram a Moisés: “Seus servos tomaram a soma dos homens de guerra que estão sob nosso comando, e não falta um só homem de nós.
50 And we have brought the LORD’S oblation, what every man hath gotten, of jewels of gold, ankle chains, and bracelets, signet-rings, earrings, and armlets, to make atonement for our souls before the LORD.
Trouxemos a oferta de Javé, o que todo homem encontrou: ornamentos de ouro, braceletes, pulseiras, anéis de sinalização, brincos e colares, para fazer expiação por nossas almas diante de Javé”.
51 And Moses and Eleazar the priest took the gold of them, even all wrought jewels.
Moisés e Eleazar, o sacerdote, levaram seu ouro, mesmo todas as jóias trabalhadas.
52 And all the gold of the heave offering that they offered up to the LORD, of the captains of thousands, and of the captains of hundreds, was sixteen thousand seven hundred and fifty shekels.
Todo o ouro da oferta da onda que eles ofereceram a Javé, dos capitães de milhares e dos capitães de centenas, foi de dezesseis mil setecentos e cinqüenta siclos.
53 ([For] the men of war had taken booty, every man for himself.)
Os homens de guerra tinham levado espólio, cada um por si.
54 And Moses and Eleazar the priest took the gold of the captains of thousands and of hundreds, and brought it into the tent of meeting, for a memorial for the children of Israel before the LORD.
Moisés e Eleazar, o sacerdote, levaram o ouro dos capitães de milhares e de centenas, e o trouxeram à Tenda da Reunião para um memorial para os filhos de Israel antes de Yahweh.
