Numbers 31
1 The LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
Jehova Nyasaye nowacho ne Musa niya,
2 “Avenge the children of Israel on the Midianites. Afterward you shall be gathered to your people.”
“In kaachiel gi jo-Israel dhi uked gi jo-Midian, eka bangʼe ibiro tho miluw bangʼ kwereni.”
3 Moses spoke to the people, saying, “Arm men from amongst you for war, that they may go against Midian, to execute the LORD’s vengeance on Midian.
Omiyo Musa nowacho ne jo-Israel niya, “Yieruru jou moko mondo odhi oked gi jo-Midian kendo gitiek mirimb Jehova Nyasaye kuomgi.
4 You shall send one thousand out of every tribe, throughout all the tribes of Israel, to the war.”
Goluru ji alufu achiel achiel moa e dhoot ka dhoot mar Israel.”
5 So there were delivered, out of the thousands of Israel, a thousand from every tribe, twelve thousand armed for war.
Omiyo ji alufu apar gariyo noikore ne lweny, kowuok e dhout Israel duto ka gigolo ji alufu achiel achiel.
6 Moses sent them, one thousand of every tribe, to the war with 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.
Musa noorogi e lweny ji alufu achiel e dhoot ka dhoot, ka gin gi Finehas wuod Eliazar, ma jadolo, mane otingʼo gik moa ei kama ler mar lemo kod turumbete michiwogo ranyisi.
7 They fought against Midian, as the LORD commanded Moses. They killed every male.
Negikedo gi Midian, mana kaka Jehova Nyasaye nochiko Musa, kendo neginego chwo duto.
8 They killed the kings of Midian with the rest of their slain: Evi, Rekem, Zur, Hur, and Reba, the five kings of Midian. They also killed Balaam the son of Beor with the sword.
Moko kuom joma nonegi ne gin Evi, Rekem, Zur, Hur kod Reba mane gin ruodhi abich mag Midian. Bende neginego Balaam wuod Beor gi ligangla.
9 The children of Israel took the women of Midian captive with their little ones; and all their livestock, all their flocks, and all their goods, they took as plunder.
Jo-Israel nomako mond jo-Midian kod nyithindo kendo ne giyako kweth mag jamni, dhok, kod gik moko duto mag jo-Midian.
10 All their cities in the places in which they lived, and all their encampments, they burnt with fire.
Ne giwangʼo miech jo-Midian mane gidakie, kaachiel gi kuondegi mag bworo.
11 They took all the captives, and all the plunder, both of man and of animal.
Negikawo gik moko duto ma oyaki kod mane ope, kaachiel gi ji kod jamni,
12 They brought the captives with the prey and the plunder, to Moses, and to Eleazar the priest, and to the congregation of the children of Israel, to the camp at the plains of Moab, which are by the Jordan at Jericho.
kendo negikelo joma ne omaki, gik mane ope kod mane oyaki ne Musa gi Eliazar ma jadolo kod oganda jo-Israel e kargi mar bworo mantiere e pewe Moab, man but Jordan loka mar Jeriko.
13 Moses and Eleazar the priest, with all the princes of the congregation, went out to meet them outside of the camp.
Musa gi Eliazar jadolo kod jotend oganda duto nodhi mondo orom kodgi e oko mar kambi.
14 Moses was angry with the officers of the army, the captains of thousands and the captains of hundreds, who came from the service of the war.
Musa nokecho gi jotend lweny duto; mago mane otelo ne migawo mar lweny mar alufe alufe kod mag miche miche mane odwogo koa e lweny.
15 Moses said to them, “Have you saved all the women alive?
Nopenjogi niya, “Angʼo momiyo useyiene mon mondo obed mangima?”
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 amongst the congregation of the LORD.
Gin e joma noluwo puonj Balaam kendo gin ema negimiyo oganda mar jo-Israel oweyo Jehova Nyasaye kuom gima notimore Peor, mane omiyo masira onego jo-Jehova Nyasaye.
17 Now therefore kill every male amongst the little ones, and kill every woman who has known man by lying with him.
Omiyo neguru yawuowi duto. Kendo uneg dhako moro amora moseriwore gi dichwo,
18 But all the girls, who have not known man by lying with him, keep alive for yourselves.
to uwe nyiri duto mapok ongʼeyo chwo.
19 “Encamp outside of the camp for seven days. Whoever has killed any person, and whoever has touched any slain, purify yourselves on the third day and on the seventh day, you and your captives.
“Un duto ma usenego ngʼato angʼata kata mulo ngʼato angʼata motho nyaka ubed oko mar kambi kuom ndalo abiriyo. To e odiechiengʼ mar adek kod mar abiriyo nyaka upwodhru uwegi kendo upwodh jogo mumako.
20 You shall purify every garment, and all that is made of skin, and all work of goats’ hair, and all things made of wood.”
Pwodhuru lewni duto kaachiel gi gimoro amora molos gi pien, molos gi yie diel kata mago molos gi bao.”
21 Eleazar the priest said to the men of war who went to the battle, “This is the statute of the law which the LORD has commanded Moses.
Eka Eliazar jadolo nowacho ne jolweny mane odhi e lweny niya, “Chik mane Jehova Nyasaye omiyo Musa ema:
22 However the gold, and the silver, the bronze, the iron, the tin, and the lead,
Gik machalo gi dhahabu, fedha, mula, nyinyo, chuma
23 everything that may withstand the fire, you shall make to go through the fire, and it shall be clean; nevertheless it shall be purified with the water for impurity. All that doesn’t withstand the fire you shall make to go through the water.
kod gimoro amora ma mach ok nyal wangʼo noleny e mach, eka enopwodhgi mi gibed maler. To bende nyaka luokgi gi pi mondo gibed maler. Omiyo gimoro amora ma mach ok nyal lenyo nyaka luok gi pigno.
24 You shall wash your clothes on the seventh day, and you shall be clean. Afterward you shall come into the camp.”
Kochopo odiechiengʼ mar abiriyo to ulwok lepu kendo ubiro bedo maler. Bangʼe unyalo biro e kambi.”
25 The LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
Jehova Nyasaye nowacho ne Musa niya,
26 “Count the plunder that was taken, both of man and of animal, you, and Eleazar the priest, and the heads of the fathers’ households of the congregation;
“In gi Eliazar jadolo kod jotend anywola mag oganda nyaka kwan ji duto kod jamni mane ope.
27 and divide the plunder into two parts: between the men skilled in war, who went out to battle, and all the congregation.
Nyaka upogi gik mane ope maromre ne joma nodhi e lweny kod joma nodongʼ.
28 Levy a tribute to the LORD of the men of war who went out to battle: one soul of five hundred; of the persons, of the cattle, of the donkeys, and of the flocks.
Kuom mago mopogne jolweny mano kedo, goluru ni Jehova Nyasaye achiel kuom mia abich bed ni gin ji, dhok, punde, rombe kata diek.
29 Take it from their half, and give it to Eleazar the priest, for the LORD’s wave offering.
Kawuru nus mar pokni kendo umi Eliazar jadolo kaka chiwo ne Jehova Nyasaye.
30 Of the children of Israel’s half, you shall take one drawn out of every fifty, of the persons, of the cattle, of the donkeys, and of the flocks, of all the livestock, and give them to the Levites, who perform the duty of the LORD’s tabernacle.”
Kuom nus mar pok jo-Israel kawuru achiel kuom piero abich, bed ni gin ji, dhok, punde, rombe, diek kata jamni mamoko. Chiwgi ne jo-Lawi ma tijgi en rito hekalu mar Jehova Nyasaye.”
31 Moses and Eleazar the priest did as the LORD commanded Moses.
Omiyo Musa kod Eliazar jadolo notimo kaka Jehova Nyasaye nochiko Musa.
32 Now the plunder, over and above the booty which the men of war took, was six hundred and seventy-five thousand sheep,
Kuom gik mane ope, jolweny nokawo rombe alufu mia auchiel gi piero abiriyo gabich,
33 seventy-two thousand head of cattle,
dhok alufu piero abiriyo gariyo,
34 sixty-one thousand donkeys,
punde alufu piero auchiel gachiel,
35 and thirty-two thousand persons in all, of the women who had not known man by lying with him.
kod nyiri alufu piero adek gariyo mane pok ongʼeyo chwo.
36 The half, which was the portion of those who went out to war, was in number three hundred and thirty-seven thousand and five hundred sheep;
Nus mar gik mane ope mane omi joma ne odhi kedo e lweny ne gin: rombe alufu mia adek gi piero adek gabiriyo gi mia abich,
37 and the LORD’s tribute of the sheep was six hundred and seventy-five.
pok mar Jehova Nyasaye ne gin rombe mia auchiel gi piero abiriyo gabich;
38 The cattle were thirty-six thousand, of which the LORD’s tribute was seventy-two.
kuom dhok alufu piero adek gauchiel, pok mar Jehova Nyasaye ne gin dhok piero abiriyo gariyo;
39 The donkeys were thirty thousand and five hundred, of which the LORD’s tribute was sixty-one.
kuom punde alufu piero adek gi mia abich, pok mar Jehova Nyasaye ne gin punde piero auchiel gachiel;
40 The persons were sixteen thousand, of whom the LORD’s tribute was thirty-two persons.
kuom ji alufu apar gauchiel, pok mar Jehova Nyasaye ne gin ji piero adek gariyo.
41 Moses gave the tribute, which was the LORD’s wave offering, to Eleazar the priest, as the LORD commanded Moses.
Musa nomiyo Eliazar jadolo ma kor Jehova Nyasaye, kaka Jehova Nyasaye nochiko Musa.
42 Of the children of Israel’s half, which Moses divided off from the men who fought
Nus mar pok mar jo-Israel mane Musa ogolo kuom joma nodhi e lweny ne chalo kama:
43 (now the congregation’s half was three hundred and thirty-seven thousand and five hundred sheep,
nus mar pok mar oganda ne gin rombe alufu mia adek gi piero adek gabiriyo gi mia abich,
44 thirty-six thousand head of cattle,
dhok alufu piero adek gauchiel,
45 thirty thousand and five hundred donkeys,
punde alufu piero adek gi mia abich,
46 and sixteen thousand persons),
kod ji alufu apar gauchiel.
47 even of the children of Israel’s half, Moses took one drawn out of every fifty, both of man and of animal, and gave them to the Levites, who performed the duty of the LORD’s tabernacle, as the LORD commanded Moses.
Kuom nus pok mar jo-Israel, Musa noyiero achiel kuom piero abich mar ji kod jamni, mana kaka Jehova Nyasaye nochike, mi nomiyogi jo-Lawi, ma tijgi ne en rito hekalu mar Jehova Nyasaye.
48 The officers who were over the thousands of the army, the captains of thousands, and the captains of hundreds, came near to Moses.
Eka jotelo mane orito migepe mag jolweny, jotelo mag alufe alufe kod jotelo mag miche miche, nodhi ir Musa
49 They said to Moses, “Your servants have taken the sum of the men of war who are under our command, and there lacks not one man of us.
mi owachone niya, “Jotichni osekwano kar romb jolweny man e lwetwa, kendo onge kata achiel kuomgi molal.
50 We have brought the LORD’s offering, what every man found: gold ornaments, armlets, bracelets, signet rings, earrings, and necklaces, to make atonement for our souls before the LORD.”
Omiyo wasekelo mich ne Jehova Nyasaye kuom gik molos gi dhahabu mane wayako kaka; thiwni, manyonge, tere, stadi kod tigo mondo omi wapwodhrego e richo e nyim Jehova Nyasaye.”
51 Moses and Eleazar the priest took their gold, even all worked jewels.
Musa kod Eliazar jadolo noyie okawo dhahabugo irgi, ma gin gik mothedhi maber.
52 All the gold of the wave offering that they offered up to the LORD, of the captains of thousands, and of the captains of hundreds, was sixteen thousand and seven hundred and fifty shekels.
Dhahabu duto mane oa ir jotend lweny mag alufe alufe kod mago mag miche miche mane Musa kod Eliazar jadolo ochiwo kaka mich ne Jehova Nyasaye pekgi ne romo kilo mia ariyo.
53 The men of war had taken booty, every man for himself.
Jalweny ka jalweny noyako mana gima orome.
54 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.
Musa kod Eliazar jadolo nokawo dhahabu koa kuom jotend jolweny mag alufe alufe kod mago mag miche miche mi negiterogi e Hemb Romo kaka rapar mar jo-Israel e nyim Jehova Nyasaye.
