3 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.
Mose gblɔ na ameawo be, “Ele be mia dometɔ aɖewo naho aʋa ɖe Midiantɔwo ŋu, eye woabia hlɔ̃ Midiantɔwo na Yehowa.
4 One thousand to the tribe one thousand to the tribe for all [the] tribes of Israel you will send out to war.
Miɖo ŋutsu akpe ɖeka tso Israel ƒe to ɖe sia ɖe me ɖe aʋa la.”
5 And they were selected from [the] thousands of Israel one thousand to the tribe two [plus] ten thousand armed [men] of war.
Ale ŋutsu akpe wuieve bla akpa ɖe aʋa la wɔwɔ ŋu, ŋutsu akpe ɖeka tso Israel ƒe to ɖe sia ɖe me.
6 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.
Finehas, nunɔla Eleazar ƒe viŋutsue nye woƒe aʋakplɔla. Nubablaɖaka la yi kpli wo le esime kpẽwo nɔ ɖiɖim.
7 And they waged war on Midian just as he had commanded Yahweh Moses and they killed every male.
Wowu Midian ŋutsu ɖe sia ɖe le aʋa la me.
8 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.
Wowu Midian fia atɔ̃awo katã, Evi, Rekem, Zur, Hur kple Reba. Wowu Balaam, Beor ƒe viŋutsu la hã.
9 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.
Israelviwo ƒe aʋakɔ la ɖe aboyo Midiantɔwo ƒe nyɔnuwo kple ɖeviwo katã, eye woha woƒe lãwo kple woƒe kesinɔnu geɖewo.

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

12 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.
Wotsɔ aboyomeawo kple afunyinuawo katã vɛ na Mose kple nunɔla Eleazar kple Israelvi bubu siwo nɔ asaɖa la me le Moab gbedzi le Yɔdan tɔsisi la to, le Yeriko kasa.
13 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.
Mose kple nunɔla Eleazar kple ameawo ƒe kplɔla bubuawo katã do go yi ɖakpe aʋakɔ la,
14 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 he said to them Moses ¿ have you let live every female.
Ebia wo be, “Nu ka ta miena nyɔnuawo katã tsi agbe?
16 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.
Ame siawo tututue wɔ Balaam ƒe aɖaŋuɖoɖo dzi, eye wona Israelviwo subɔ legbawo le Peor to la dzi; woawoe he dɔvɔ̃ si wu mí la vɛ.
17 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.
Miwu ŋutsuviwo katã kple nyɔnu siwo dɔ ŋutsu gbɔ kpɔ la fifi laa!
18 And all the little one[s] among the women who not they have known lying of a male preserve alive for yourselves.
Mina nyɔnuvi suewo ya nanɔ agbe, eye woazu mia tɔ.
19 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.
“Azɔ la, mi ame siwo katã wu ame aɖe alo ka asi ame kuku aɖe ŋu la, minɔ asaɖa la godo ŋkeke adre. Mikɔ mia ɖokuiwo kple nyɔnuvi sueawo ŋu le ŋkeke etɔ̃lia kple adrelia gbe.
20 And every garment and every article of hide and every product of goat hair and every article of wood you will purify yourselves.
Miɖo ŋku edzi miakɔ miaƒe awuwo kple nu sia nu si wowɔ kple lãgbalẽ, gbɔ̃fu alo ati la hã ŋuti.”
21 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.
Nunɔla Eleazar gblɔ na aʋadelawo katã be, “Esia nye se si Yehowa de na Mose

‘Nu sia nu si ate ŋu anɔ te ɖe dzoxɔxɔ nu abe sika, klosalo, akɔbli, gaɣi alo tsumi ene la,
23 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.
woade wo dzo me ale be woakɔ wo ŋu. Emegbe la, woagakɔ wo ŋu kple tsi kɔkɔe. Ke woatsɔ tsi kɔkɔe ko akɔ nu siwo mate ŋu anɔ te ɖe dzoxɔxɔ nu o la ŋuti.’
24 And you will wash clothes your on the day seventh and you will be pure and after you will come to the camp.
Le ŋkeke adrelia gbe la, mianya miaƒe awuwo, eye mia ŋuti akɔ ekema miagatrɔ ava asaɖa la me.”
25 And he said Yahweh to Moses saying.

“Wò kple nunɔla Eleazar kple ƒomeawo ƒe tatɔ siwo le dukɔa me la miaxlẽ amewo kple lã siwo katã wolé le aʋa.
27 And you will divide the booty between [those] skilled of the battle who went out to war and between all the congregation.
Le esia megbe la, miama afunyinuawo ɖe asrafo siwo de aʋa kple ameha mamlɛawo dome.
28 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.
Mixɔ nu sia nu si asrafoawo xɔ la ƒe ɖeka le alafa atɔ̃ ɖe sia ɖe me abe nunana ene na Yehowa, eɖanye amegbetɔ, nyiwo, tedziwo, alẽwo loo alo gbɔ̃wo o.

Mixɔ nunana sia ƒe afã le wo si, eye miatsɔe na nunɔla Eleazar abe Yehowa ƒe gome ene.
30 And from [the] half of [the] people of Israel you will take - one - [person] drawn from the fifty from humankind from the cattle from the donkeys and from the sheep from all the livestock and you will give them to the Levites [who] keep [the] service of [the] tabernacle of Yahweh.
Tso nu siwo ke Israelviwo xɔ ƒe afã me la, tia ɖeka le blaatɔ̃ ɖe sia ɖe me, eɖanye amegbetɔ, nyiwo, tedziwo, alẽwo, gbɔ̃wo loo alo lã bubuwo o. Tsɔ wo na Levi ƒe viwo, ame siwo kpɔa Yehowa ƒe Agbadɔ la ƒe nyawo gbɔ.”
31 And he did Moses and Eleazar the priest just as he had commanded Yahweh Moses.
