Numbers 31
1 The LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
Jehovha akati kuna Mozisi,
2 “Avenge the children of Israel on the Midianites. Afterward you shall be gathered to your people.”
“Tsiva kuvaMidhiani zvavakaitira vaIsraeri. Shure kwaizvozvo uchandosanganiswa navanhu vako.”
3 Moses spoke to the people, saying, “Arm men from among you for war, that they may go against Midian, to execute the LORD’s vengeance on Midian.
Saka Mozisi akati kuvanhu, “Shongedzai vamwe varume vokwenyu nhumbi dzokurwa kuti vaende kundorwa navaMidhiani kuti vazadzise kutsiva kwaJehovha pamusoro pavo.
4 You shall send one thousand out of every tribe, throughout all the tribes of Israel, to the war.”
Endesai kuhondo varume chiuru kubva kurudzi rumwe norumwe rwavaIsraeri.”
5 So there were delivered, out of the thousands of Israel, a thousand from every tribe, twelve thousand armed for war.
Saka varume zviuru gumi nezviviri vakashongedzerwa kundorwa, chiuru chimwe kubva kurudzi rumwe norumwe, vakauyiswa vachibva kumhuri dzavaIsraeri.
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.
Mozisi akavatuma kundorwa, chiuru kubva kurudzi rumwe norumwe, pamwe chete naFinehasi mwanakomana waEreazari muprista, uyo akatorawo nhumbi dzomunzvimbo tsvene nehwamanda dzokuridza pakutungamirira.
7 They fought against Midian, as the LORD commanded Moses. They killed every male.
Vakarwisa vaMidhiani, sezvakanga zvarayirwa Mozisi naJehovha, vakauraya varume vose.
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.
Vakaurayiwa pakati pavo ndiEvhi, Rekemu, Zuri, Huri naRebha, madzimambo mashanu avaMidhiani. Vakaurayawo nomunondo Bharamu mwanakomana waBheori.
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.
VaIsraeri vakatapa vakadzi vavaMidhiani navana vavo uye vakatora mombe dzose dzavaMidhiani, makwai nepfuma sezvinhu zvavakapamba.
10 All their cities in the places in which they lived, and all their encampments, they burned with fire.
Vakapisa maguta ose avaMidhiani, pamwe chete nemisasa yavo yose.
11 They took all the captives, and all the plunder, both of man and of animal.
Vakatora zvose zvavakapamba, nepfuma, pamwe chete navanhu uye nezvipfuwo,
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.
vakauya nenhapwa, nepfuma uye nezvavakapamba kuna Mozisi naEreazari muprista, uye vaIsraeri vakaungana pamisasa yavo pamapani eMoabhu, paJorodhani uchibva mhiri kuJeriko.
13 Moses and Eleazar the priest, with all the princes of the congregation, went out to meet them outside of the camp.
Mozisi, Ereazari navatungamiri vose veungano vakabuda kuti vandosangana navo kunze kwomusasa.
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.
Mozisi akatsamwira machinda ehondo, vatungamiri vezviuru navatungamiri vamazana, vakadzoka kuhondo.
15 Moses said to them, “Have you saved all the women alive?
Akavabvunza akati, “Ko, makatendera vakadzi vose kuti vararame here?
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.
Ndivo vakanga vachitevera zano raBharamu uye ndivo vakatsausa vaIsraeri kubva kuna Jehovha pane zvakaitika paPeori, naizvozvo denda rikauya pamusoro pavanhu vaJehovha.
17 Now therefore kill every male among the little ones, and kill every woman who has known man by lying with him.
Zvino chiurayai vakomana vose. Uye muuraye mukadzi mumwe nomumwe akavata nomurume,
18 But all the girls, who have not known man by lying with him, keep alive for yourselves.
asi muzvisiyire musikana mumwe nomumwe asina kuvata nomurume.
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.
“Imi mose makauraya ani zvake kana kubata ani zvake akaurayiwa, munofanira kugara kunze kwomusasa kwamazuva manomwe. Pazuva rechitanhatu nezuva rechinomwe, munofanira kuzvinatsa imi nenhapwa dzenyu.
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.”
Munatse nguo imwe neimwe pamwe chete nezvose zvakaitwa namatehwe, mvere dzembudzi kana makushe ehwai.”
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.
Ipapo Ereazari muprista akati kuvarwi vakanga vaenda kuhondo, “Hezvino zvinodikanwa
22 However the gold, and the silver, the bronze, the iron, the tin, and the lead,
pamurayiro wakapiwa Mozisi naJehovha: goridhe, sirivha, ndarira, simbi, tini, mutobvu
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.
nezvimwewo zvisingaparadzwi nomoto; zvinofanira kuiswa mumoto, ipapo zvichava zvakanaka. Asi zvinofanirawo kucheneswa nemvura yokunatsa. Uye zvose zvisingagoni kukunda moto zvinofanira kupinzwa nomumvura imomo.
24 You shall wash your clothes on the seventh day, and you shall be clean. Afterward you shall come into the camp.”
Pazuva rechinomwe musuke nguo dzenyu, ipapo muchava vakachena. Ipapo mungazochipinda henyu mumusasa.”
25 The LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
Jehovha akati kuna Mozisi,
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;
“Iwe naEreazari muprista navakuru vemhuri veungano munofanira kuverenga vanhu vose nezvipfuwo zvakapambwa.
27 and divide the plunder into two parts: between the men skilled in war, who went out to battle, and all the congregation.
Mugovere zvakapambwa pakati pavarwi vakaenda kuhondo uye navakasara muungano.
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.
Kubva kuvarwi vakanga vandorwa kuhondo, utsaure somutero waJehovha chinhu chimwe chete pazvinhu mazana mashanu, vangava vanhu, mombe, mbongoro, makwai kana mbudzi.
29 Take it from their half, and give it to Eleazar the priest, for the LORD’s wave offering.
Utore mutero uyu kubva pahafu yavo yomugove wavo ugopa kuna Ereazari muprista somugove waJehovha.
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.”
Kubva kuhafu inova yavaIsraeri, utsaure chinhu chimwe chete kubva pamakumi mashanu oga oga, vangava vanhu, mombe, mbongoro, makwai, mbudzi kana zvimwe zvipfuwo. Uzvipe kuvaRevhi, ivo vane basa rokuchengeta tabhenakeri yaJehovha.”
31 Moses and Eleazar the priest did as the LORD commanded Moses.
Saka Mozisi naEreazari muprista vakaita sezvakarayirwa Mozisi naJehovha.
32 Now the plunder, over and above the booty which the men of war took, was six hundred seventy-five thousand sheep,
Zvakatapwa zvakasara pane zvavakapamba zvakanga zvatorwa navarwi zvaisvika zviuru mazana matanhatu namakumi manomwe nezvishanu zvamakwai,
33 seventy-two thousand head of cattle,
mombe zviuru makumi manomwe nezviviri,
34 sixty-one thousand donkeys,
mbongoro zviuru makumi matanhatu nechiuru chimwe chete
35 and thirty-two thousand persons in all, of the women who had not known man by lying with him.
uye vakadzi zviuru makumi matatu nezviviri vakanga vasina kumbovata navarume.
36 The half, which was the portion of those who went out to war, was in number three hundred thirty-seven thousand five hundred sheep;
Hafu yomugove wavaya vakarwa muhondo yaiva: makwai zviuru mazana matatu namakumi matatu nezvinomwe, namazana mashanu,
37 and the LORD’s tribute of the sheep was six hundred seventy-five.
mutero waJehovha paari wakanga uri makwai mazana matanhatu namakwai manomwe namashanu;
38 The cattle were thirty-six thousand, of which the LORD’s tribute was seventy-two.
mombe dzaisvika zviuru makumi matatu nezvitanhatu, mutero waJehovha padziri waiva mombe makumi manomwe nembiri;
39 The donkeys were thirty thousand five hundred, of which the LORD’s tribute was sixty-one.
mbongoro dzaiva zviuru makumi matatu namazana mashanu, mutero waJehovha padziri wakanga uri mbongoro makumi matanhatu neimwe chete;
40 The persons were sixteen thousand, of whom the LORD’s tribute was thirty-two persons.
vanhu vaisvika zviuru gumi nezvitanhatu, mutero waJehovha pavari waiva vanhu makumi matatu navaviri.
41 Moses gave the tribute, which was the LORD’s wave offering, to Eleazar the priest, as the LORD commanded Moses.
Mozisi akapa mutero kuna Ereazari muprista somugove waJehovha, sezvakarayirwa Mozisi naJehovha.
42 Of the children of Israel’s half, which Moses divided off from the men who fought
Hafu yakanga iri yavaIsraeri, yakatsaurwa naMozisi kubva kuvarume vehondo,
43 (now the congregation’s half was three hundred thirty-seven thousand five hundred sheep,
hafu yeungano yaiva makwai zviuru mazana matatu namakumi matatu namanomwe, namazana mashanu,
44 thirty-six thousand head of cattle,
mombe zviuru makumi matatu, nezvitanhatu,
45 thirty thousand five hundred donkeys,
mbongoro dzaiva zviuru makumi matatu, namazana mashanu
46 and sixteen thousand persons),
uye vanhu vaiva zviuru gumi nezvitanhatu.
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.
Kubva pahafu yaiva yavaIsraeri, Mozisi akatsaura munhu mumwe chete kubva pavanhu makumi mashanu, chipfuwo chimwe chete kubva pazvipfuwo makumi mashanu, sezvakarayirwa naJehovha, akazvipa kuvaRevhi, vakanga vane basa rokuchengeta tabhenakeri yaJehovha.
48 The officers who were over the thousands of the army, the captains of thousands, and the captains of hundreds, came near to Moses.
Ipapo machinda akanga ari vatariri vamapoka ehondo, vatungamiri vezviuru navatungamiri vamazana vakaenda kuna Mozisi
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.
vakati kwaari, “Varanda venyu vaverenga varwi vari pasi pedu, hapana kana mumwe chete asipo.
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.”
Saka tauya nechipo kuna Jehovha chezvishongo zvegoridhe zvakawanikwa nomumwe nomumwe wedu, zvishongo zvegoridhe, mhete dzomumaoko, mhete dzomunzeve nouketani hwomumutsipa kuti tizviyananisire pamberi paJehovha.”
51 Moses and Eleazar the priest took their gold, even all worked jewels.
Mozisi naEreazari muprista vakagamuchira kubva kwavari goridhe, zvinhu zvose zvakanga zvakaitwa noumhizha.
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 seven hundred fifty shekels.
Goridhe rose rakabva kuvatungamiri vezviuru navatungamiri vamazana rakapiwa kuna Jehovha naMozisi naEreazari muprista rairema mashekeri zviuru gumi nezvitanhatu, namazana manomwe namakumi mashanu.
53 The men of war had taken booty, every man for himself.
Murwi mumwe nomumwe akanga azvitorera zvake zvakapambwa.
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.
Mozisi naEreazari muprista vakagamuchira goridhe rakabva kuvatungamiri vezviuru nokuvatungamiri vamazana vakariisa muTende Rokusangana kuti chive chirangaridzo chavaIsraeri pamberi paJehovha.
