< Resansman 25 >

1 Pandan Israël te rete nan Sittim, pèp la te kòmanse pwostitiye tèt yo avèk fi Moab yo.
And Israel abode in Shittim; and the people began to play the harlot with the daughters of Moab:
2 Paske yo te envite pèp la pou vini nan sakrifis dye pa yo. Pèp la te manje, e te bese devan dye yo a.
for they called the people unto the sacrifices of their gods; and the people did eat, and bowed down to their gods.
3 Konsa, Israël te vin jwenn yo menm avèk Baal Peor, e SENYÈ a te vin fache kont Israël.
And Israel joined himself unto Baal-peor: and the anger of Jehovah was kindled against Israel.
4 SENYÈ a te di a Moïse: “Pran tout chèf a pèp la e touye yo gwo lajounen devan SENYÈ a, pou gran kòlè a SENYÈ a kapab vire kite Israël.”
And Jehovah said unto Moses, Take all the chiefs of the people, and hang them up unto Jehovah before the sun, that the fierce anger of Jehovah may turn away from Israel.
5 Konsa, Moïse te di a jij Israël yo: “Chak nan nou va touye pwòp mesye pa li ki te jwenn yo mem avèk Baal Peor la.”
And Moses said unto the judges of Israel, Slay ye every one his men that have joined themselves unto Baal-peor.
6 Alò, vwala, youn nan fis Israël yo te vini pou te mennen bay a fanmi li yo yon fanm Madyanit, devan zye Moïse e devan zye a tout kongregasyon fis Israël yo, pandan yo tout t ap kriye devan pòtay tant asanble a.
And, behold, one of the children of Israel came and brought unto his brethren a Midianitish woman in the sight of Moses, and in the sight of all the congregation of the children of Israel, while they were weeping at the door of the tent of meeting.
7 Lè Phinées, fis Éléazar, fis a Aaron, prèt la, te wè sa, li te leve nan mitan kongregasyon an. Li te pran yon frenn nan men l,
And when Phinehas, the son of Eleazar, the son of Aaron the priest, saw it, he rose up from the midst of the congregation, and took a spear in his hand;
8 epi li te ale dèyè Izrayelit la nan tant lan e li te frennen tranche kò yo toulède nèt, mesye Israël la ak fanm nan. Konsa gwo epidemi sou fis Israël yo te vin sispann.
and he went after the man of Israel into the pavilion, and thrust both of them through, the man of Israel, and the woman through her body. So the plague was stayed from the children of Israel.
9 Sila ki te mouri yo akoz gwo epidemi an se te venn-kat-mil.
And those that died by the plague were twenty and four thousand.
10 Alò, SENYÈ a te pale avèk Moïse. Li te di:
And Jehovah spake unto Moses, saying,
11 “Phinées, fis a Éléazar, fis a Aaron, prèt la, te fè detounen kòlè Mwen vè fis Israël yo, akoz li te jalou avèk jalouzi pa Mwen an pami yo; epi konsa, Mwen pa t detwi fis Israël yo nan jalouzi pa Mwen an.
Phinehas, the son of Eleazar, the son of Aaron the priest, hath turned my wrath away from the children of Israel, in that he was jealous with my jealousy among them, so that I consumed not the children of Israel in my jealousy.
12 “Pou sa pale: ‘Gade byen, Mwen bay li akò lapè Mwen.
Wherefore say, Behold, I give unto him my covenant of peace:
13 Li va pou li avèk desandan apre li yo, yon akò pozisyon prèt pou tout tan, akoz ke li te jalou pou Bondye li a, e li te fè ekspiyasyon pou fis Israël yo.’”
and it shall be unto him, and to his seed after him, the covenant of an everlasting priesthood; because he was jealous for his God, and made atonement for the children of Israel.
14 Alò, non a Izrayelit ki te touye avèk fanm Madyanit la se te Zimri, fis Salu, yon chèf kay pami Simeyonit yo.
Now the name of the man of Israel that was slain, who was slain with the Midianitish woman, was Zimri, the son of Salu, a prince of a fathers’ house among the Simeonites.
15 Non a fanm Madyanit ki te touye a se te Cozbi, fi a Zur, ki te chèf kay zansèt a yon pèp nan Madian.
And the name of the Midianitish woman that was slain was Cozbi, the daughter of Zur; he was head of the people of a fathers’ house in Midian.
16 Alò, SENYÈ a te pale avèk Moïse e te di:
And Jehovah spake unto Moses, saying,
17 “Se pou ou vin mechan avèk Madyanit yo, e frape yo;
Vex the Midianites, and smite them;
18 paske yo te mechan avèk nou avèk riz pa yo, avèk sila, yo twonpe nou nan zafè Peor la ak nan zafè Cozbi a, fi a chèf Madian an, sè ki te touye nan jou gwo epidemi an pou koz a Peor a.”
for they vex you with their wiles, wherewith they have beguiled you in the matter of Peor, and in the matter of Cozbi, the daughter of the prince of Midian, their sister, who was slain on the day of the plague in the matter of Peor.
