< Numbers 31 >

1 Yahweh spoke to Moses/me and said,
OLELO mai la o Iehova ia Mose, i mai la,
2 “Before you die, [tell the] Israeli people that they should (pay back/get revenge on) the Midian people-group for what they did to you.”
E hoopai i ka hana ino ia mai o na mamo a Iseraela maluna o ka Midiana; a mahope e huiia aku oe me ou poe kanaka.
3 So Moses/I said to the people, “Get some men prepared for battle. Yahweh will enable them to (pay back/get revenge on) the Midian people-group [for what they did to us].
Olelo aku la o Mose i na kanaka, i aku la, E hoomakaukau i kekahi poe o oukou no ke kaua, a e kuu aku ia lakou e hele ku e i ka Midiana, a e hoopai aku i ko Iehova maluna o ka Midiana.
4 Select 1,000 men from each tribe to fight.”
I hookahi tausani no kela ohana, keia ohana ma na ohana a pau a Iseraela, ka oukou e hoouna aku ai i ke kaua.
5 So 12,000 men prepared for fighting in the battle, 1,000 from each tribe.
A ua haawiia mai noloko mai o na tausani o ka Iseraela, he tausani hookahi no kela ohana no keia ohana, he umikumamalua na tausani i makaukau no ke kaua.
6 When Moses/I sent them to the battle, Phinehas, the son of Eleazar the priest, went with them. He took with him some of the things from the Sacred Tent and the trumpets that would be blown to give the signal [to start the battle].
Hoouna aku la o Mose ia lakou i ke kaua, i hookahi tausani o ka ohana hookahi, ia lakou a me Pinehasa ke keiki a Eleazara ke kahuna, me na mea hoano, a me na pu e puhi aku ai ma kona lima, i ke kaua.
7 The Israeli men fought the soldiers from the Midian people-group, as Yahweh had told Moses/me to tell them to do, and they killed every man from the Midian people-group.
A kaua aku la lakou i ka Midiana, e like me ka Iehova i kauoha mai ai ia Mose; a pepehi iho la lakou i na kane a pau.
8 Among those whom they killed were the five kings of the Midian people-group—Evi, Rekem, Zur, Hur, and Reba. They also killed with a sword Balaam, the son of Beor.
Pepehi iho la hoi lakou i na alii o Midiana, he okoa kela poe o lakou i pepehiia, o Evi, o Rekema, o Zura, o Hura, a me Reba, na alii elima o Midiana: pepehi iho la hoi lakou ia Balaama ke keiki a Beora me ka pahikaua.
9 They captured all the women and children of the Midian people-group and took away their cattle, their flocks of sheep, and herds of goats, and all their other possessions.
Lawe pio aku la na mamo a Iseraela i na wahine a me ka lakou poe keiki liilii, a hao ae la lakou i na bipi o lakou a pau, me na holoholona a pau o lakou, a me ko lakou waiwai a pau.
10 Then they burned down all the houses in the towns and villages where the people of the Midian people-group lived,
Puhi aku la lakou i na kulanakauhale a pau kahi a lakou i noho ai, a me na pa holoholona a pau o lakou, i ke ahi.
11 but they took home with them all the women and children and animals and possessions.
Lalau ae la lakou i ka waiwai pio a pau, a me ka mea a pau i haoia, o na kanaka a me na holoholona.
12 They brought all these to Eliezer and Moses/me, and to the rest of the Israeli people who were at their/our camp on the plains where the Moab people-group lived, near the Jordan River, across from Jericho.
Lawe mai la lakou i na pio a me ka waiwai pio, a me na holoholona, io Mose la laua o Eleazara ke kahuna, a i ke anaina kanaka o na mamo a Iseraela, i kahi hoomoana ma na papu o Moaba ma Ioredane o Ieriko.
13 Eleazar and all the leaders of the people and Moses/I went outside the camp to greet/meet with them.
Hele aku la o Mose me Eleazara ke kahuna, a me na luna a pau o ke anaina kanaka e halawai me lakou mawaho o kahi hoomoana.
14 But Moses/I was angry with some of the men who had returned from the battle. He/I was angry with the army officers and the men who were commanders of 1,000 men and those who were commanders of 100 men.
Huhu aku la o Mose i na luna kaua, i na luna tausani a me na luna haneri, i hele mai, mai ke kaua mai.
15 He/I asked them, “Why did you allow the women to live [RHQ]?
I aku la o Mose ia lakou, Ua hoola mai no anei oukou i na wahine a pau?
16 They are the ones who did what Balaam suggested and urged/persuaded our people to worship Baal [instead of Yahweh]. As a result, Yahweh caused a plague to strike his people while they were at Peor.
Aia hoi, o keia ka poe i hoowalewale i na mamo a Iseraela, mamuli o ka manao o Balaama, e lawehala ia Iehova ma ka mea a Peora, a hiki mai no ke ahulau iwaena o ke anaina kanaka o Iehova.
17 So, now you must kill all the boys of the Midian people-group, and also kill all the women who have had sex [EUP] with any man.
No ia hoi, e pepehi oukou i na kane a pau iwaena o na kamalii, a e pepehi i na wahine a pau i ike i ke kane ma ka moe me ia.
18 Spare only the girls who are virgins [EUP]. You can keep them to be your [wives or your slaves].
Aka, o ka poe kaikamahine a pau i ike ole i ke kane ma ka moe me ia, oia ka oukou e hoola ai.
19 All of you who have killed someone or touched the corpse of someone who was killed [in the battle] must stay outside the camp for seven days. On the third day and on the seventh day, you must [perform the ritual to] cause you and those whom you have captured to become acceptable to God again.
A e noho oukou mawaho o kahi hoomoana i na la ehiku: o ka mea i pepehi i kekahi kanaka, a o ka mea i hoopa aku i ke kupapau, e huikala oukou ia oukou iho a me ko oukou poe pio, i ke kolu o ka la, a i ka hiku o ka la.
20 You must also wash your clothes and anything [that you took to the battle] that is made of leather or goat’s hair or wood.”
E huikala hoi oukou i na aahu a pau, a me na mea ili a pau, a me na mea hulu kao a pau, a me na mea laau a pau.
21 Then Eleazar said to the soldiers who had returned from the battle, “This is what Yahweh has instructed Moses:
Olelo aku la hoi o Eleazara ke kahuna i na koa i hele aku i ke kaua, Eia ka oihana o ke kanawai a Iehova i kauoha mai ai ia Mose;
22 You must put into a fire any gold or silver or bronze or iron or tin or lead things [that you brought back from the battle].
O ke gula wale no, o ke kala, o ke keleawe, o ka hao, o ka piuta, a me ke kepau,
23 Put everything that will not burn into the fire, and then they will be acceptable for you to use. But also sprinkle those things with the water that causes things and people to become acceptable to God. The things that would burn [if you put them] in a fire, sprinkle them with that water.
O kela mea keia mea e pono ma ke ahi, oia ka oukou e hoohele mawaena o ke ahi, a e huikalaia oia; a e hoomaemaeia no nae ia i ka wai huikala: a o na mea a pau e pono ole ma ke ahi, oia ka oukou e hoohele mawaena o ka wai.
24 On the seventh day, wash your clothes, and then you will become acceptable to God again. After you do that, you may return to the camp.”
A i ka hiku o ka la, e holoi oukou i ko oukou mau aahu, a e maemae oukou; a mahope iho e hele mai auanei oukou maloko o kahi hoomoana.
25 Yahweh also said to Moses/me,
Olelo mai la o Iehova ia Mose, i mai la,
26 “Tell Eleazar and the leaders of the family groups that they must write down a list of all the goods, the women, and the animals that were captured [in the battle].
E helu i ka waiwai pio o ka poe i lawe pio, o kanaka a me na holoholona, o oe a me Eleazara ke kahuna, a me na lunakahiko o ke anaina kanaka.
27 Then they must divide all those things, half given to the men who fought in the battle and the other half given to the rest of the people.
A e puunaue i ka waiwai pio i na puu elua; no ka poe i lawe i ke kaua maluna o lakou iho, ka poe i hele aku i ke kaua kekahi, a no ke anaina kanaka a pau kekahi.
28 From the men who fought in the battle, take one from every 500 people and from every 500 cattle and donkeys and sheep, to be a tax for me.
A e auhau oe no Iehova i na kanaka kaua, i ka poe i hele aku i ke kaua: i hookahi kino noloko mai o na haneri elima, o na kanaka, o na bipi, o na hoki, a o na hipa.
29 Take these things to Eleazar to (be my share/belong to me).
E lawe ia noloko mai o ka lakou hapalua, a e haawi aku na Eleazara ke kahuna, i mohai kaikai no Iehova.
30 And from the half that belongs to the ordinary people, take one item from every 50. That includes people, cattle, donkeys, sheep, goats, and other animals. Give those things to the descendants of Levi who take care of my Sacred Tent.”
A noloko mai o ka hapalua no na mamo a Iseraela, kau e lawe aku ai i hookahi hapa kanalima o na kanaka, o na bipi, o na hoki, o na hipa, a o na holoholona a pau, a e haawi aku ia mau mea na na Levi, na ka poe e malama ana i ka ukana o ka halelewa no Iehova.
31 So Eleazar and Moses/I did what Yahweh commanded.
A hana aku la o Mose laua o Eleazara ke kahuna, e like me ka Iehova i kauoha mai ai ia Mose.
32 There were 675,000 sheep, 72,000 cattle, 61,000 donkeys, and 32,000 virgins that they had captured from the Midian people-group.
A o ka waiwai pio, o ke koena o ka waiwai pio a na kanaka kaua i lawe pio ai, he aono haneri me kanahikukumamalima na tausani hipa.
A he kanahikukumamalua na tausani bipi.
A he kanaonokumamakahi na tausani hoki.
A he kanakolukumamalua na tausani wahine a pau i ike ole i ke kane ma ka moe ana me ia.
36 The men who fought in the battle took 337,000 sheep [from the battle],
A o ka hapalua, ka puu a ka poe i hele aku i ke kaua, ma ka helu ana, he akolu haneri me kanakolukumamahiku na tausani hipa, a me na haneri keu elima.
37 and they gave 675 of them to Yahweh.
A o na hipa auhau na Iehova, he aono haneri me kanahikukumamalima.
38 They took 36,000 cattle and gave 72 of them to Yahweh.
A he kanakolukumamaono na tausani bipi; a o ka auhau na Iehova noloko mai o ia poe, he kanahikukumamalua.
39 They took 30,500 donkeys, and they gave 61 of them to Yahweh.
A o na hoki, he kanakolu na tausani, a me na haneri keu elima; a o ka auhau na Iehova noloko mai o ia poe, he kanaonokumamakahi.
40 They took 16,000 virgins, and they dedicated 32 of them to Yahweh.
A o na wahine, he umikumamaono na tausani; a he kanakolukumamalua o lakou ke auhau no Iehova.
41 Moses/I gave to Eleazar all [the animals] that had been given to Yahweh, as Yahweh had commanded.
A haawi aku la o Mose i ka auhau, i ka mea mohaikaikai a Iehova, na Eleazara ke kahuna, e like me ka Iehova i kauoha mai ai ia Mose.
42 Moses/I separated what those who had fought in the battle received from what the other people received. The people had taken 337,500 sheep, 36,000 cattle, 30,500 donkeys, and 16,000 virgins,
A o ka hapalua a na mamo a Iseraela, ka mea a Mose i puunaue ai mai na kanaka kaua mai.
(O ka ke anaina kanaka hapalua, he akolu haneri me ke kanakolukumamahiku na tausani hipa, a me na haneri keu elima,
A he kanakolukumamaono na tausani bipi,
A he kanakolu tausani na hoki me na haneri keu elima.
A he umikumamaono tausani na wahine.)
47 From what the people received, Moses/I took one from every 50 items and dedicated them to Yahweh. That included animals and people. As Yahweh commanded, he/I gave them all to the descendants of Levi who took care of the Sacred Tent.
A lawe aku la o Mose i hookahi hapa kanalima, noloko mai o ka hapalua a na mamo a Iseraela, i na kanaka a me na holoholona, a haawi aku ia lakou na ka poe Levi, ka poe i malama i ka ukana o ka halelewa o Iehova; e like me ka Iehova i kauoha mai ia Mose.
48 Then the army officers and those who commanded 1,000 men and those who commanded 100 men came to Moses/me.
Hele mai la na luna o na tausani o ke kaua, a kokoke io Mose la, o na luna tausani a me na luna haneri:
49 They said, “We, who are your servants, have counted the soldiers whom we command, and [we found that] none of them (is missing/has been killed).
I aku la lakou ia Mose, Ua helu iho nei kau poe kauwa i na kanaka kaua malalo iho o makou, aole hoi i nalowale kekahi kanaka o makou:
50 So [to thank Yahweh for that], we have brought to him a gift of the gold items that we found [after the battle]: Gold arm bands and bracelets and rings and earrings and necklaces. This will enable us to be forgiven for our sins.”
Nolaila makou i lawe mai nei i alana no Iehova, i ka mea a kela kanaka a keia kanaka i loaa'i, o na mea gula, na kupee, na apo, na komolima, na apo pepeiao, na leia-i, i mea hookalahala ia makou iho imua o Iehova.
51 So Eleazar and Moses/I accepted the gold items that they brought.
A lawe aku la o Mose a me Eleazara i ke gula, i na mea i hanaia a pau, mai o lakou aku.
52 The total of it weighed about (420 pounds/190 kg.).
O ke gula a pau o ka mohai, ka mea a na luna tausani a me na luna haneri i kaumaha aku ai no Iehova, he umikumamaono tausani ehiku haneri a me kanalima na sekela.
53 Each soldier had taken these things for himself.
No ka mea, ua lawe na kanaka kaua i ka waiwai pio, o kela kanaka keia kanaka nona iho.)
54 Eleazar and Moses/I accepted these gold items from these commanders and put them in the Sacred Tent to remind the Israeli people about how Yahweh [had helped them defeat the Midian people-group].
Lawe aku la o Mose laua o Eleazara ke kahuna i ke gula o na luna tausani a me na luna haneri, a halihali aku la ia mea iloko o ka halelewa o ke anaina, i mea hoomanao no na mamo a Iseraela imua o Iehova.
