1 Hĩndĩ ĩrĩa andũ a Isiraeli maikaraga Shitimu-rĩ, arũme a Isiraeli makĩambĩrĩria gũtharia na andũ-a-nja a Moabi,
Ɛberɛ a Israelfoɔ bɔɔ atenaseɛ wɔ Sitim no, wɔn mu mmarima no bi hyɛɛ aseɛ ne Moab mmabaawa no bɔɔ adwaman de guu wɔn ho fi.
2 arĩa mameetaga magongona-inĩ ma ngai ciao. Andũ acio a Isiraeli makĩrĩa na makĩinamĩrĩra mbere ya ngai icio.
Saa mmabaawa yi too nsa frɛɛ wɔn sɛ wɔmmra wɔn afɔdeɛ a wɔbɔ ma wɔn anyame no ase. Ankyɛre biara, mmarima no kɔɔ wɔn apontoɔ ase na wɔsomm Moab anyame.
3 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio andũ a Isiraeli makĩnyiitanĩra nao kũhooya ngai ya Baali ya Peori. Namo marakara ma Jehova makĩmarĩrĩmbũkĩra.
Ɛberɛ tiawa bi akyi, Israelfoɔ no nyinaa kɔsom Baal-peor a ɔyɛ Moabfoɔ nyame. Yei maa Awurade bo fuu ne nkurɔfoɔ no yie.
4 Jehova akĩĩra Musa atĩrĩ, “Oya atongoria othe a andũ aya, ũmoorage na ũmaanĩke mũthenya barigici mbere ya Jehova, nĩguo marakara mahiũ ma Jehova matigakinyĩrĩre andũ a Isiraeli.”
Ɔhyɛɛ saa mmara yi maa Mose sɛ, “Kunkum mpanimfoɔ a wɔtuatua Israel mmusuakuo no ano no nyinaa. Sɛn wɔn wɔ Awurade anim awia ketee sɛdeɛ ɛbɛyɛ a, nʼabufuo a ano yɛ den no bɛfiri wɔn so.”
5 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Musa akĩĩra aciirithania a Isiraeli atĩrĩ, “O mũndũ wanyu no nginya oorage arũme anyu arĩa manyiitanĩire na andũ a Moabi kũhooya Baali ya Peori.”
Enti, Mose hyɛɛ atemmufoɔ no ma wɔkunkumm wɔn a wɔsomm Baal-peor no nyinaa.
6 O hĩndĩ ĩyo mũndũ mũrũme Mũisiraeli akĩrehe mũndũ-wa-nja Mũmidiani mũciĩ gwake akĩonagwo nĩ Musa na kĩũngano kĩu gĩothe gĩa Isiraeli, o hĩndĩ ĩrĩa maarĩragĩra itoonyero-inĩ rĩa Hema-ya-Gũtũnganwo.
Nanso, Israelni ɔhantanni bi de Midiani ababaawa bi baa wɔn atenaeɛ hɔ maa Mose ne nnipa no nyinaa hunuu no ɛberɛ a na wɔn nyinaa gyina Ahyiaeɛ Ntomadan no ɛpono akyi retwa adwo no.
7 Rĩrĩa Finehasi mũrũ wa Eleazaru, mũrũ wa Harũni ũrĩa mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai, onire ũndũ ũcio-rĩ, akiuma kĩũngano-inĩ kĩu, akĩoya itimũ,
Ɛberɛ a Pinehas a ɔyɛ Eleasa babarima a na ɔyɛ ɔsɔfoɔ Aaron nana hunuu yei no, ɔhuri sɔɔ pea mu
8 akĩrũmĩrĩra Mũisiraeli ũcio nginya hema-inĩ yake. Akĩmatheeca na itimũ rĩu, akĩmatũrĩkania eerĩ, itimũ rĩu rĩgĩtũrĩkania Mũisiraeli ũcio o na rĩgĩtheeca mũndũ-wa-nja ũcio. Hĩndĩ ĩyo mũthiro ũcio wokĩrĩire andũ a Isiraeli ũgĩthira;
taa saa ɔbarima no so de no kɔwuraa ne ntomadan mu baabi a ɔfaa ɔbaa no. Ɔde pea no wowɔɔ ɔbarima no sane de wɔɔ ɔbaa no yafunu mu. Enti, ɔhaw no to twaa wɔ Israelfoɔ no mu,
9 no andũ arĩa maakuire nĩ ũndũ wa mũthiro ũcio maarĩ andũ 24,000.
nanso ɛkɔsi saa ɛberɛ no, na nnipa mpem aduonu ɛnan awuwu dada.
10 Nake Jehova akĩĩra Musa atĩrĩ,
Afei, Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Mose sɛ,
11 “Finehasi, mũrũ wa Eleazaru, mũrũ wa Harũni ũrĩa mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai, nĩatũmĩte marakara makwa meherere andũ a Isiraeli; nĩ ũndũ nĩahĩahĩire ngoro o ta ũrĩa ndaiguite nĩ ũndũ wa gĩtĩĩo gĩakwa thĩinĩ wao, na nĩ ũndũ ũcio o na ndahĩahĩa ndiamaniinire.
“Eleasa babarima Pinehas a ɔyɛ ɔsɔfoɔ Aaron nana adwodwo mʼabufuo ano, ɛfiri sɛ, ɔbɔɔ mmɔden te sɛ me ara wɔ mʼanimuonyam ho, enti sɛdeɛ meyɛɛ mʼadwene sɛ mɛsɛe Israelfoɔ nyinaa no, magyae.
12 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio ĩra Finehasi atĩrĩ, nĩ ngũthondeka kĩrĩkanĩro gĩakwa gĩa thayũ nake.
Enti ka kyerɛ no sɛ, me ne no rebɛyɛ asomdwoeɛ apam.
13 We na njiaro ciake nĩ makagĩa na kĩrĩkanĩro gĩa gũtũũra kĩa ũthĩnjĩri-Ngai, nĩ ũndũ nĩahĩahĩire ngoro nĩ ũndũ wa gĩtĩĩo kĩa Ngai wake, na akĩhoroheria andũ a Isiraeli.”
Saa apam yi mu, ɔno ne nʼasefoɔ bɛyɛ asɔfoɔ afebɔɔ, ɛfiri sɛ watwe me, ne Onyankopɔn, ho ninkunu wɔ Israelfoɔ mu de ayɛ mpata ama wɔn.”
14 Mũisiraeli ũcio woragirwo marĩ na mũndũ-wa-nja Mũmidiani eetagwo Zimuri mũrũ wa Salu, mũtongoria wa nyũmba ya Asimeoni.
Ɔbarima a wɔkumm no ne Midiani ababaawa no, na ne din de Simri a na ɔyɛ Salu a ɔtua Simeon abusuakuo ano no babarima.
15 Nake mũndũ-wa-nja ũcio Mũmidiani woragirwo, eetagwo Kozibi mwarĩ wa Zuru, mũnene wa mũhĩrĩga thĩinĩ wa nyũmba ĩmwe ya Amidiani.
Ɔbaa no nso, na ne din de Kosbi a na ɔyɛ Midianhene babarima Sur babaa.
16 Jehova akĩĩra Musa atĩrĩ,
Afei, Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Mose sɛ,
17 “Tua andũ a Midiani thũ cianyu na ũmoorage,
“To hyɛ Midianfoɔ no so na sɛe wɔn,
18 tondũ nĩmamũtuire thũ ciao rĩrĩa maamũheenirie ũhoro-inĩ wa kũhoera kũu Peori na wa mwarĩ wa nyina wao Kozibi, mwarĩ wa mũtongoria Mũmidiani, mũndũ-wa-nja ũrĩa woragirwo rĩrĩa mũthiro wokire nĩ ũndũ wa Peori.”
ɛfiri sɛ, wɔfaa mo sɛ atamfoɔ, na wɔdaadaa mo ma mosomm Baal-peor, ne Kosbi a ɔyɛ Midian ntuanoni babaa a wɔkumm no wɔ Peor ɔyaredɔm ɛda no.”
