1 Esime Israelviwo ƒu asaɖa anyi ɖe Sitim la, woƒe ɖekakpui aɖewo de asi ahasiwɔwɔ me kple Moab ɖetugbiwo.

2 Ɖetugbi siawo kplɔa wo yia woƒe mawuwo ƒe vɔsawo teƒewo. Le ɣeyiɣi kpui aɖe megbe la, ɖekakpuiawo megadea vɔsawo teƒewo ɖeɖe ko o, ke boŋ wodea ta agu na woƒe legbawo.

3 Sẽe kple sẽe ko la, Israelviwo katã de asi Moabtɔwo ƒe mawu, Baal Peor subɔsubɔ me. Yehowa ƒe dɔmedzoe bi ɖe Israelviwo ŋu.
UIsrayeli wasezihlanganisa loBhali-Peyori; lolaka lweNkosi lwamvuthela uIsrayeli.
4 Yehowa de se sia na Mose be, “Wu Israel ƒe towo katã ƒe kplɔlawo. Trɔ wo ɖe ati nu le Yehowa ŋkume le ŋdɔkutsu dzati nu ale be nye dɔmedzoe ɖe ameawo ŋu nu natso.”
INkosi yasisithi kuMozisi: Thatha zonke inhloko zabantu, uziphanyeke phambi kweNkosi maqondana lelanga, ukuze ulaka lweNkosi oluvuthayo lubuye lusuke koIsrayeli.
5 Ale Mose ɖe gbe na Israel ʋɔnudrɔ̃lawo be woawu ame siwo katã subɔ Baal Peor.
UMozisi wasesithi kubahluleli bakoIsrayeli: Bulalani, kube ngulowo lalowo amadoda akhe ababezihlanganise loBhali-Peyori.
6 Gbe ɖeka la, Israel ŋutsu aɖe kplɔ Midian ɖetugbi aɖe amemabumabutɔe va asaɖa la me le Mose kple ameawo katã ŋkume, esime wonɔ avi fam le Agbadɔ la ƒe ʋɔtru nu.

7 Esi Finehas, nunɔla Eleazar ƒe viŋutsu kple nunɔla Aron ƒe tɔgbuiyɔvi kpɔ nu sia la, etso zia, tsɔ akplɔ,
Kwathi uPhinehasi, indodana kaEleyazare, indodana kaAroni umpristi, ekubona, wasukuma ephuma phakathi kwenhlangano, wathatha umkhonto esandleni sakhe,
8 ƒu du ti Israel ŋutsu la yome yi eƒe agbadɔ me, afi si wòkplɔ ɖetugbi la yii. Etɔ akplɔ ŋutsu la wòto eƒe dɔ me do heŋɔ dɔme na ɖetugbi la hã. Ale dɔvɔ̃ la nu tso
waseyilandela indoda yakoIsrayeli ethenteni, wabagwaza bobabili, indoda yakoIsrayeli lowesifazana esiswini sakhe. Yasimiswa inhlupheko kubantwana bakoIsrayeli.
9 esime wòwu ame akpe blaeve-vɔ-ene xoxo.
Lalabo abafayo ngenhlupheko babeyizinkulungwane ezingamatshumi amabili lane.
10 Yehowa gblɔ na Mose be,
INkosi yasikhuluma kuMozisi isithi:
11 “Finehas, Eleazar ƒe viŋutsu kple nunɔla Aron ƒe tɔgbuiyɔvi na nye dɔmedzoe nu tso, elabena eya hã do dɔmedzoe abe nye ke ene le nye bubu ta. Eya ta nyemagatsrɔ̃ Israel blibo la abe ale si meɖo ene o.
UPhinehasi, indodana kaEleyazare indodana kaAroni umpristi, uphendule ulaka lwami lusuka ebantwaneni bakoIsrayeli, ngoba wayelobukhwele ngobukhwele bami phakathi kwabo; ngakho kangibaqothulanga abantwana bakoIsrayeli ngobukhwele bami.
12 Eya ta gblɔ nɛ be, mele nye ŋutifafa ƒe nubabla wɔm kplii.
Ngakho utsho: Khangela, ngiyamnika isivumelwano sami sokuthula.
13 Eya kple eƒe dzidzimeviwo anɔ nubabla me kplim tso nunɔladɔwɔwɔ tegbetegbe ŋu, elabena etsi dzi ɖe eƒe Mawu ƒe bubu ŋu ele wòlé avu ɖe Israelviwo nu.”
Njalo uzakuba laso, lenzalo yakhe emva kwakhe, isivumelwano sobupristi obulaphakade, ngenxa yokuthi elobukhwele ngoNkulunkulu wakhe, wabenzela abantwana bakoIsrayeli inhlawulo yokuthula.
14 Israelvi si wowu kple Midian ɖetugbi la ŋkɔe nye Zimri si nye Salu, ame si nye Simeon ƒe to la ƒe kplɔla aɖe la ƒe viŋutsu.
Lebizo lendoda yakoIsrayeli eyatshaywayo, eyatshaywa kanye lomMidiyanikazi, lalinguZimri indodana kaSalu, isiphathamandla sendlu kayise phakathi kwabakoSimeyoni.
15 Ɖetugbi la ŋkɔe nye Kozbi si nye Zur, Midiantɔwo ƒe fiavi aɖe ƒe vinyɔnu.
Ibizo lowesifazana owatshaywayo, umMidiyanikazi, lalinguKozibi indodakazi kaZuri, owayeyinhloko yesizwe sendlu kayise eMidiyani.
16 Yehowa gblɔ na Mose be,
INkosi yasikhuluma kuMozisi isithi:
17 “Miwɔ Midiantɔwo abe miaƒe futɔwo ene, eye miawu wo,
Hluphani amaMidiyani, liwatshaye;
18 elabena wole mia tsrɔ̃m kple woƒe nu vɔ̃wo. Wona miele Baal subɔm, eye wona miele mɔ tram hele dɔvɔ̃ lém abe ale si miekpɔe fifi laa to Kozbi ƒe ku me ene.”
ngoba aliphethe njengezitha ngobuqili bawo, alikhohlisa ngodaba lukaPeyori langodaba lukaKozibi, indodakazi yesiphathamandla seMidiyani, udadewabo, owatshaywa ngosuku lwenhlupheko ngenxa yodaba lukaPeyori.
