Ƙidaya 25
1 Lokacin da Isra’ila suke a sansani a Shittim, sai maza suka fara yin lalata da matan Mowabawa,
While Israel was staying in Shittim, the men began to indulge in sexual immorality with the daughters of Moab,
2 waɗanda suka gayyace su zuwa wajen hadayu na allolinsu. Mutane suka ci suka kuma yi wa waɗannan alloli sujada.
who also invited them to the sacrifices for their gods. And the people ate and bowed down to these gods.
3 Ta haka Isra’ila suka sa kai a bautar gumaka Ba’al-Feyor. Ubangiji kuwa ya husata da su.
So Israel joined in worshiping Baal of Peor, and the anger of the LORD burned against them.
4 Ubangiji ya ce wa Musa, “Ka kama dukan shugabannin mutanen nan, ka kashe su, ka kuma bar su a tsakar rana a gaban Ubangiji, don Ubangiji yă huce daga fushin da nake yi da Isra’ila.”
Then the LORD said to Moses, “Take all the leaders of the people and execute them in broad daylight before the LORD, so that His fierce anger may turn away from Israel.”
5 Saboda haka Musa ya ce wa alƙalan Isra’ila, “Dole kowannenku yă kashe mutanen nan da suka haɗa kai cikin bautar Ba’al-Feyor.”
So Moses told the judges of Israel, “Each of you must kill all of his men who have joined in worshiping Baal of Peor.”
6 Sa’an nan wani mutumin Isra’ila ya kawo wata Bamidiyana a iyalinsa a idon Musa da dukan taron jama’ar Isra’ila, yayinda suke kuka a ƙofar Tentin Sujada.
Just then an Israelite man brought to his family a Midianite woman in the sight of Moses and the whole congregation of Israel while they were weeping at the entrance to the Tent of Meeting.
7 Da Finehas ɗan Eleyazar, ɗan Haruna, firist, ya ga haka, sai ya bar taron, ya ɗauki māshi
On seeing this, Phinehas son of Eleazar, the son of Aaron the priest, got up from the assembly, took a spear in his hand,
8 ya bi mutumin Isra’ilan nan cikin tenti, ya soke dukansu biyu, māshin ya ratsa jikin mutumin Isra’ilan har zuwa jikin macen. Sa’an nan aka tsai da annoban nan a kan Isra’ilawa.
followed the Israelite into his tent, and drove the spear through both of them—through the Israelite and on through the belly of the woman. So the plague against the Israelites was halted,
9 Waɗanda suka mutu a wannan annoba, sun kai mutum 24,000.
but those who died in the plague numbered 24,000.
10 Ubangiji ya ce wa Musa,
Then the LORD said to Moses,
11 “Finehas ɗan Eleyazar, ɗan Haruna, firist, ya kawar da fushina daga Isra’ilawa; saboda ya yi kishi irin nawa a gabansu, don haka saboda ɗaukakata ban kawo ƙarshensu ba.
“Phinehas son of Eleazar, the son of Aaron the priest, has turned My wrath away from the Israelites; for he was zealous for My sake among them, so that I did not consume the Israelites in My zeal.
12 Saboda haka ka faɗa masa cewa zan yi alkawarin salama da shi.
Declare, therefore, that I am granting him My covenant of peace.
13 Shi da zuriyarsa za su kasance da alkawari na zama firist har abada, saboda kishinsa domin ɗaukakar Allahnsa, ya kuma yi kafara domin Isra’ilawa.”
It will be a covenant of permanent priesthood for him and his descendants, because he was zealous for his God and made atonement for the Israelites.”
14 Sunan mutumin Isra’ilan da aka kashe tare da macen nan Bamidiyana kuwa Zimri ne, ɗan Salu, shugaban mutanen Simeyon.
The name of the Israelite who was slain with the Midianite woman was Zimri son of Salu, the leader of a Simeonite family.
15 Sunan macen nan Bamidiyana da aka kashe kuwa Kozbi ne,’yar Zur, wani basaraken iyalin Midiyawa.
And the name of the slain Midianite woman was Cozbi, the daughter of Zur, a tribal chief of a Midianite family.
16 Ubangiji ya ce wa Musa,
And the LORD said to Moses,
17 “Ka ɗauki Midiyawa a matsayin abokan gāba, ka kuma kashe su,
“Attack the Midianites and strike them dead.
18 gama sun ɗauke ku a matsayin abokan gāba, sa’ad da suka ruɗe ku a kan al’amuran Feyor da’yar’uwarsu Kozbi’yar shugaban Midiyawa, macen da aka kashe a annoba ta dalili Feyor.”
For they assailed you deceitfully when they seduced you in the matter of Peor and their sister Cozbi, the daughter of the Midianite leader, the woman who was killed on the day the plague came because of Peor.”
