Thus Israel let himself be bound unto Baal-peor, and the anger of Yahweh kindled upon Israel.

And Moses said unto the judges of Israel, —Slay ye each one his men, who have let themselves he bound unto Baal-peor.

And lo! a man of the sons of Israel coming in, who brought near unto his brethren a Midianite woman, before the eyes of Moses, and before the eyes of all the assembly of the sons of Israel, when they were weeping at the entrance of the tent of meeting.
7 Da Finehas ɗan Eleyazar, ɗan Haruna, firist, ya ga haka, sai ya bar taron, ya ɗauki māshi
And Phinehas son of Eleazar, son of Aaron the priest saw it, so he rose up out of the midst of the assembly, and 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.
and went in after the man of Israel into the pleasure-tent, and thrust both of them through, the man of Israel and the woman, in her parts of shame, —so the plague was restrained from against the sons of Israel.

Then was it found that they who had died by the plague were four and twenty thousand.
10 Ubangiji ya ce wa Musa,
Then spake Yahweh unto Moses saying:
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 son of Aaron the priest, hath turned back my wrath from against the sons of Israel, in that he was jealous with my jealousy, in their midst, so that I made not an end of the sons of Israel. in my jealousy.
12 Saboda haka ka faɗa masa cewa zan yi alkawarin salama da shi.
Wherefore say, —Behold me! giving unto 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.”
so shall it prove to be unto him and unto his seed after him, the covenant of our age-abiding priesthood, because he was jealous for his God, and did put a propitiatory-covering over the sons of Israel.
14 Sunan mutumin Isra’ilan da aka kashe tare da macen nan Bamidiyana kuwa Zimri ne, ɗan Salu, shugaban mutanen Simeyon.
Now, the name of the man of Israel that was smitten, who was smitten with the Midianitish woman, was Zimri son of Salu, —prince of an ancestral house of the Simeonites;
15 Sunan macen nan Bamidiyana da aka kashe kuwa Kozbi ne,’yar Zur, wani basaraken iyalin Midiyawa.
and, the name of the woman who was smitten, the Midianitess, was Cozbi, daughter of Zur, —the head of his kindred, of an ancestral house in Midian, was he.
16 Ubangiji ya ce wa Musa,
And Yahweh spake unto Moses saying:
17 “Ka ɗauki Midiyawa a matsayin abokan gāba, ka kuma kashe su,
Besiege the Midianites, —and ye shall smite them:
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, besiegers, were they unto you, with their wiles wherewith they beguiled you, over the matter of Peor, —and over he matter of Cozbi, daughter of a prince of Midian, their sister, who was smitten in the day of the plague, over the matter of Peor.
