Resansman 25
1 Pandan Israël te rete nan Sittim, pèp la te kòmanse pwostitiye tèt yo avèk fi Moab yo.
And Israel dwells in Shittim, and the people begin to go whoring to 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.
and they call for the people to the sacrifices of their gods, and the people eat and bow themselves to their gods,
3 Konsa, Israël te vin jwenn yo menm avèk Baal Peor, e SENYÈ a te vin fache kont Israël.
and Israel is joined to Ba‘al-Peor, and the anger of YHWH burns 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 YHWH says to Moses, “Take all the chiefs of the people and hang them before YHWH in sight of the sun; and the fierceness of the anger of YHWH turns back 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 says to [the] judges of Israel, “Each slays his men who are joined to Ba‘al-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, a man of the sons of Israel has come, and brings a Midianitess to his brothers before the eyes of Moses and before the eyes of all the congregation of the sons of Israel, who are weeping at the opening 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 Phinehas, son of Eleazar, son of Aaron the priest, sees, and rises from the midst of the congregation, and takes a javelin 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 goes in after the man of Israel to the hollow place, and pierces them both, the man of Israel and the woman—to her belly, and the plague is restrained from the sons of Israel;
9 Sila ki te mouri yo akoz gwo epidemi an se te venn-kat-mil.
and the dead by the plague are twenty-four thousand.
10 Alò, SENYÈ a te pale avèk Moïse. Li te di:
And YHWH speaks to 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, son of Eleazar, son of Aaron the priest, has turned back My fury from the sons of Israel by his being zealous with My zeal in their midst, and I have not consumed the sons of Israel in My zeal.
12 “Pou sa pale: ‘Gade byen, Mwen bay li akò lapè Mwen.
Therefore say, Behold, I am giving My covenant of peace to him,
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 has been to him and to his seed after him [for] a covenant of a continuous priesthood, because that he has been zealous for his God, and makes atonement for the sons 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.
And the name of the man of Israel who is struck, who has been struck with the Midianitess, [is] Zimri son of Salu, prince of the house of a father of the Simeonite;
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 woman who is struck, the Midianitess, [is] Cozbi daughter of Zur; he [is] head of peoples of a father’s house in Midian.
16 Alò, SENYÈ a te pale avèk Moïse e te di:
And YHWH speaks to Moses, saying,
17 “Se pou ou vin mechan avèk Madyanit yo, e frape yo;
“Distress the Midianites, and you have struck 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 are adversaries to you with their frauds, [with] which they have acted fraudulently to you, concerning the matter of Peor and concerning the matter of Cozbi, daughter of a prince of Midian, their sister, who is struck in the day of the plague for the matter of Peor.”
