Numbers 25
1 And Israel remained among the acacias, —and the people began to go away unchastely unto the daughters of Moab;
Wana bana ya Isalaele bavandaki nanu na Shitimi, bamipesaki na kindumba na bilenge basi ya Moabi.
2 who invited the people unto the sacrifices of their gods, —so the people did eat, and did bow themselves down unto their gods.
Mpe, bilenge basi yango bazalaki kobenga bango na milulu ya mbeka oyo babonzelaka banzambe na bango. Mpe bana ya Isalaele bazalaki kolia mpe kogumbamela banzambe yango.
3 Thus Israel let himself be bound unto Baal-peor, and the anger of Yahweh kindled upon Israel.
Bongo, bana ya Isalaele bamipesaki na kosambela Bala ya Peori mpe, kanda ya Yawe epelaki makasi mpo na bango.
4 And Yahweh said unto Moses—Take all the heads of the people, and crucify them unto Yahweh. in the face of the sun, —that the heat of the anger of Yahweh may turn away from Israel.
Yawe alobaki na Moyize: « Kanga bakambi nyonso ya Isalaele mpe diembika bango liboso na Ngai, na se ya moyi, mpo ete kanda makasi na Yawe elongwa likolo ya Isalaele. »
5 And Moses said unto the judges of Israel, —Slay ye each one his men, who have let themselves he bound unto Baal-peor.
Moyize alobaki na bakambi ya Isalaele: « Tika ete moko na moko kati na bino aboma bato na ye oyo bamipesi na kosambela nzambe Bala ya Peori. »
6 And lo! a man of the sons of Israel coming in, who brought near unto his brethren a Midianite woman, before the eyes of Moses, and before the eyes of all the assembly of the sons of Israel, when they were weeping at the entrance of the tent of meeting.
Bongo moto moko ya Isalaele amemaki na libota na ye mwasi moko ya ekolo ya Madiani liboso ya Moyize mpe ya lisanga mobimba ya bana ya Isalaele, wana bazalaki kolela na ekotelo ya Ndako ya kapo ya Bokutani.
7 And Phinehas son of Eleazar, son of Aaron the priest saw it, so he rose up out of the midst of the assembly, and took a spear in his hand;
Tango Pineasi, mwana mobali ya Eleazari, mwana mobali ya Nganga-Nzambe Aron amonaki bongo, abimaki kati na lisanga mpe akamataki mopanga;
8 and went in after the man of Israel into the pleasure-tent, and thrust both of them through, the man of Israel and the woman, in her parts of shame, —so the plague was restrained from against the sons of Israel.
alandaki moto ya Isalaele wana kino kati na ndako na ye ya kapo mpe atobolaki bango mibale mabumu mpe bakufaki, ezala moto ya Isalaele wana mpe mwasi wana. Mpe etumbu oyo ezalaki likolo ya Isalaele esilaki.
9 Then was it found that they who had died by the plague were four and twenty thousand.
Bato oyo bakufaki na etumbu wana bazalaki, bato nkoto tuku mibale na minei.
10 Then spake Yahweh unto Moses saying:
Yawe alobaki na Moyize:
11 Phinehas son of Eleazar son of Aaron the priest, hath turned back my wrath from against the sons of Israel, in that he was jealous with my jealousy, in their midst, so that I made not an end of the sons of Israel. in my jealousy.
« Nganga-Nzambe Pineasi, mwana mobali ya Eleazari, mwana mobali ya Aron, asili kolongola kanda na Ngai likolo ya bana ya Isalaele, pamba te atalisi bolingo oyo eleka ndelo mpo na lokumu na Ngai kati na bango; yango wana, na kanda na Ngai ya makasi, nasilisaki koboma bana ya Isalaele te.
12 Wherefore say, —Behold me! giving unto him my covenant of peace;
Na boye, yebisa ye ete nasili kosala boyokani ya kimia elongo na ye.
13 so shall it prove to be unto him and unto his seed after him, the covenant of our age-abiding priesthood, because he was jealous for his God, and did put a propitiatory-covering over the sons of Israel.
Boyokani yango ekozala mpo na ye mpe mpo na bakitani na ye, mpo ete basala mosala na Ngai ya Bonganga-Nzambe mpo na libela, pamba te atalisi bolingo oyo eleka ndelo mpo na lokumu ya Nzambe na ye, mpe asali mosala ya bolimbisi masumu mpo na bana ya Isalaele. »
14 Now, the name of the man of Israel that was smitten, who was smitten with the Midianitish woman, was Zimri son of Salu, —prince of an ancestral house of the Simeonites;
Kombo ya moto ya Isalaele oyo babomaki elongo na mwasi ya Madiani ezalaki Zimiri, mwana mobali ya Salu, mokambi ya libota ya Simeoni;
15 and, the name of the woman who was smitten, the Midianitess, was Cozbi, daughter of Zur, —the head of his kindred, of an ancestral house in Midian, was he.
mpe oyo ya mwasi ya Madiani ezalaki Kozibi, mwana mwasi ya Tsuri, mokambi ya libota moko ya ekolo ya Madiani.
16 And Yahweh spake unto Moses saying:
Yawe alobaki na Moyize:
17 Besiege the Midianites, —and ye shall smite them:
« Kamata bato ya Madiani lokola banguna mpe boma bango,
18 for, besiegers, were they unto you, with their wiles wherewith they beguiled you, over the matter of Peor, —and over he matter of Cozbi, daughter of a prince of Midian, their sister, who was smitten in the day of the plague, over the matter of Peor.
pamba te bakamataki bino lokola banguna mpe basalelaki mayele mabe mpo na kokweyisa bino, na likambo ya Peori mpe ya ndeko na bango ya mwasi, Kozibi, mwana mwasi ya moko kati na bakambi ya Madiani, oyo babomaki na tango ya etumbu kati na likambo ya Peori. »
