Resansman 31
1 Alò, SENYÈ a te pale avèk Moïse e te di:
Yahweh spoke to Moses and said,
2 Pran vanjans konplè pou fis Israël yo kont Madyanit yo. Apre, ou va rasanble anvè pèp ou a.
“Take vengeance on the Midianites for what they did to the Israelites. After doing that, you will die and be gathered to your people.”
3 Moïse te pale avèk pèp la e te di: “Bay gason pami nou yo zam pou fè lagè; pou yo kapab sòti kont Madian pou egzekite vanjans SENYÈ a kont Madian.
So Moses spoke to the people. He said, “Arm some of your men for war so they may go against Midian and carry out Yahweh's vengeance on it.
4 Yon milye ki soti nan chak tribi a tout tribi Israël yo, nou va voye yo nan lagè.”
Every tribe throughout Israel must send a thousand soldiers to war.”
5 Konsa, te vin disponib soti nan milye an Israël, yon milye soti nan chak tribi, douz mil avèk zam prepare pou lagè.
So out of Israel's thousands of men, one thousand was provided from each tribe, twelve thousand men armed for war.
6 Moïse te voye yo, yon milye sòti nan chak tribi nan lagè, e Phinées, fis Éléazar a, prèt la, nan lagè avèk yo, avèk veso sen ak twonpèt yo pou sone alam ki nan men l lan.
Then Moses sent them to battle, a thousand from every tribe, along with Phinehas son of Eleazar the priest, and with some articles from the holy place and the trumpets in his possession for sounding signals.
7 Konsa, yo te fè lagè kont Madian, jis jan ke SENYÈ a te kòmande Moïse la, e yo te touye tout gason yo.
They fought against Midian, as Yahweh had commanded Moses. They killed every man.
8 Yo te touye wa a Madian yo ansanm avèk lòt ki te mouri yo: Evi, Rékem, Tsur, Hur, ak Réba, senk wa a Madian yo. Yo osi te touye Balaam fis a Beor a avèk nepe.
They killed the kings of Midian with the rest of their dead: Evi, Rekem, Zur, Hur, and Reba, the five kings of Midian. They also killed Balaam son of Beor, with the sword.
9 Fis a Israël yo te pran an kaptif fanm a Madian avèk timoun piti yo, tout bèf yo avèk tout bann bèt yo ak tout byen yo te piyaje yo.
The army of Israel took captive the women of Midian, their children, all their cattle, all their flocks, and all their goods. They took these as plunder.
10 Yo te brile tout vil kote yo te rete yo ak tout kan yo avèk dife.
They burned all their cities where they lived and all their camps.
11 Yo te piyaje ak tout sila ki te pran an kaptif yo, ni moun, ni bèt.
They took all the plunder and prisoners, both people and animals.
12 Yo te mennen kaptif yo avèk bèt yo avèk sa yo piyaje yo bay Moïse ak Éléazar, prèt la ak bay kongregasyon fis Israël yo, nan kan nan plèn Moab la, ki akote Jourdain an anfas Jéricho.
They brought the prisoners, the plunder, and the captured things to Moses, to Eleazar the priest, and to the community of the people of Israel. They brought these to the camp in the plains of Moab, by the Jordan near Jericho.
13 Moïse avèk Éléazar, prèt la ak tout chèf ki nan kongregasyon yo te ale deyò kan an pou rankontre yo.
Moses, Eleazar the priest, and all the leaders of the community went to meet them outside the camp.
14 Moïse te fache avèk ofisye lame a, kapitèn a dè milye ak kapitèn dè santèn ki te sòti nan sèvis lagè yo.
But Moses was angry with the officers of the army, the commanders of thousands and the captains of hundreds, who came from battle.
15 Moïse te di yo: “Èske nou te bay tout fanm yo lavi?
Moses said to them, “Have you let all the women live?
16 Gade byen, sila yo te fè fis Israël yo avèk konsèy Balaam nan vin peche kont SENYÈ a nan zafè Peor a; konsa, gwo epidemi te vin pami kongregasyon SENYÈ a.
Look, these women caused the people of Israel, through Balaam's advice, to commit sin against Yahweh in the matter of Peor, when the plague spread among Yahweh's community.
17 Pou sa, touye tout gason pami pitit yo, e touye tout fanm ki gen tan fin kouche avèk gason.
Now then, kill every male among the little ones, and kill every woman who has ever slept with a man.
18 Men tout fi ki poko konnen gason, konsève yo pou nou menm.
But take for yourselves all the young girls who have never slept with a man.
19 “Epi nou menm, fè kan deyò kan an pandan sèt jou; nenpòt moun ki te touye yon moun, e nenpòt moun ki te touche yon mò, pirifye tèt nou, nou menm avèk kaptif nou yo, nan twazyèm jou ak nan setyèm jou a.
You must camp outside the camp of Israel for seven days. All of you who have killed anyone and or have touched any dead person—you must purify yourselves on the third day and on the seventh day—you and your prisoners.
20 Nou va pirifye tèt nou, tout rad nou yo, tout bagay ki fèt an kwi, tout travay an po kabrit ak tout bagay an bwa.”
You must purify every garment and everything made of animal hide and goats' hair, and everything made of wood.”
21 Alò, Éléazar, prèt la, te di a mesye lagè ki te ale nan batay yo: “Sa se règleman a lalwa ke SENYÈ a te kòmande Moïse la:
Eleazar the priest said to the soldiers who had gone to war, “This is a decreed law that Yahweh has given to Moses:
22 sèlman lò avèk ajan, avèk bwonz, fè, fè blan ak plon,
The gold, silver, bronze, iron, tin, and lead,
23 tout sa ki kapab sipòte dife, nou va fè pase nan dife, e li va vin pwòp; men li va pirifye avèk dlo pirifikasyon an. Men nenpòt sa ki pa kab sipòte dife, nou va pase yo nan dlo.
and everything that resists fire, you must put it through the fire, and it will become clean. You must then purify those things with the water of cleansing. Whatever cannot go through the fire you must cleanse with that water.
24 Epi nou va lave rad nou nan setyèm jou a pou nou vin pwòp; epi apre, nou kapab antre nan kan an.”
You must wash your clothes on the seventh day, and then you will become clean. Afterward you may come into Israel's camp.”
25 Konsa, SENYÈ a te pale a Moïse e te di:
Then Yahweh spoke to Moses and said,
26 “Ou menm avèk Éléazar, prèt la, chèf a lakay zansèt yo nan kongregasyon an, pran kontwòl de sa ki te pran an kaptif yo, ni lòm, ni bèt;
“Count all the plundered things that were taken, both people and animals. You, Eleazar the priest, and the leaders of the community's ancestor's clans
27 epi divize piyaj la antre gèrye ki te sòti nan batay yo ak tout kongregasyon an.
must divide the plunder into two parts. Divide it between the soldiers who went out to battle and all the rest of the community.
28 Fè ranmase yon taks ki pou SENYÈ a sou gèrye ki te soti nan batay yo, youn nan chak senk san moun ke yo te pran an kaptif yo, nan bèf, nan bourik ak nan mouton;
Then levy a tax to be given to me from the soldiers who went out to battle. This tax must be one out of every five hundred, whether persons, cattle, donkeys, sheep, or goats.
29 pran li nan mwatye pa yo, e bay li a Éléazar, prèt la, kòm yon ofrann bay SENYÈ a.
Take this tax from their half and give it to Eleazar the priest for an offering to be presented to me.
30 Soti nan mwatye fis Israël yo, ou va pran youn ki sòti nan chak senkant moun, nan bèf, nan bourik ak nan mouton, nan tout bèt; epi bay yo a Levit ki responsab lòd nan tabènak SENYÈ a.”
Also from the people of Israel's half, you must take one out of every fifty—from the persons, cattle, donkeys, sheep, and goats. Give these to the Levites who take care of my tabernacle.”
31 Moïse avèk Éléazar, prèt la, te fè jis jan ke SENYÈ a te kòmande Moïse la.
So Moses and Eleazar the priest did as Yahweh had commanded Moses.
32 Alò, piyaj ki te rete nan byen ke mesye lagè yo te piyaje a te si-mil-swasann-kenz mouton,
Now the plunder that remained of what the soldiers had taken was 675,000 sheep,
33 swasann-douz-mil bèf,
seventy-two thousand oxen,
34 swasanteyen-mil bourik,
sixty-one thousand donkeys,
35 epi nan Kretyen kaptif yo, fanm ki pa t janm konnen gason yo, tout moun te trann-de-mil.
and thirty-two thousand women who had never slept with any man.
36 Mwatye a, pati a sila ki te ale nan lagè yo te konsa: kantite mouton yo te: twa-san-trann-sèt-mil-senk-san,
The half that was kept for the soldiers numbered 337,000 sheep.
37 taks SENYÈ a te sis-san-swasann-kenz;
Yahweh's part of the sheep was 675.
38 bèf yo te trann-si-mil, ladann taks la te swasann-douz;
The oxen were thirty-six thousand which Yahweh's tax was seventy-two.
39 bourik yo te trant-mil-senk-san, ladan yo taks SENYÈ a te swasanteyen;
The donkeys were 30,500 from which Yahweh's part was sixty-one.
40 moun vivan yo te sèz-mil, ladan yo taks SENYÈ a te trann-de moun.
The persons were sixteen thousand women of whom Yahweh's tax was thirty-two.
41 Moïse te bay taks la, ofrann SENYÈ a Éléazar, prèt la, jis jan ke SENYÈ a te kòmande Moïse la.
Moses took the tax that was to be an offering presented to Yahweh. He gave it to Eleazar the priest, as Yahweh commanded Moses.
42 Epi pou mwatye a fis Israël yo, ke Moïse te retire nan men mesye ki te ale nan lagè yo——
As for the people of Israel's half that Moses had taken from the soldiers who had gone to war—
43 Mwatye kongregasyon an te twa-san-trann-sèt-mil-senk-san mouton,
the community's half was 337,500 sheep,
44 trann-si-mil bèf,
thirty-six thousand oxen,
45 trant-mil-senk-san bourik,
30,500 donkeys,
46 moun vivan yo te sèz-mil
and sixteen thousand women.
47 epi soti nan mwatye fis Israël yo, Moïse te retire nan chak senkant, ni nan lòm ak nan bèt yo, e li te bay yo a Levit yo, ki te kenbe lòd nan tabènak SENYÈ a, jis jan ke SENYÈ a te kòmande Moïse la.
From the people of Israel's half, Moses took one out of every fifty, both of people and animals. He gave them to the Levites who kept care of Yahweh's tabernacle, as Yahweh had commanded him to do.
48 Alò, ofisye ki te sou dè milye nan lame yo, kapitèn a dè milye e kapitèn a dè santèn yo te apwoche Moïse,
Then the officers of the army, the commanders over thousands and the captains over hundreds, came to Moses.
49 epi yo te di a Moïse: “Sèvitè nou yo te pran kontwòl a mesye lagè ki sou chaj nou yo, e nanpwen pèsòn pami nou ki pa la.
They said to him, “Your servants have counted the soldiers who are under our command, and not one man is missing.
50 Konsa, nou vin pote yon ofrann bay SENYÈ a sou sa ke chak moun te twouve, bagay an lò, chenèt, braslè, bag, zanno ak kolye, pou fè ekspiyasyon pou nou menm devan SENYÈ a.”
We have brought Yahweh's offering, what each man found, articles of gold, armlets and bracelets, signet rings, earrings, and necklaces, to make atonement for ourselves before Yahweh.”
51 Moïse avèk Éléazar, prèt la, te pran lò pa yo, tout kalite bagay ki fonn.
Moses and Eleazar the priest received from them the gold and all the articles of craftsmanship.
52 Tout lò pou ofrann, yo te ofri devan SENYÈ a, soti nan kapitèn dè milye ak kapitèn dè santèn yo, se te sèz-mil-sèt-san-senkant sik.
All the gold of the offering that they gave to Yahweh—the offerings from the commanders of thousands and from the captains of hundreds—weighed 16,750 shekels.
53 Mesye lagè yo te pran piyaj la, chak nonm pou kont li.
Each soldier had taken plunder, each man for himself.
54 Konsa, Moïse avèk Éléazar, prèt la, te pran lò kapitèn dè milye ak dè santèn yo, e yo te pote li nan tant asanble a kòm yon souvni a fis Israël yo devan SENYÈ a.
Moses and Eleazar the priest took the gold from the commanders of thousands and captains of hundreds. They took it into the tent of meeting as a reminder of the people of Israel for Yahweh.
