Na Helu 25
1 NOHO iho la ka Iseraela ma Sitima: a hoomaka iho la, na kanaka e moe kolohe me na kaikamahine a ka Moaba.
And Israel at that time abode in Settim, and the people committed fornication with the daughters of Moab,
2 Koi mai la lakou i na kanaka e hele aku i na ahaaina hoomana a na akua o lakou: ai iho la na kanaka, a kulou iho la i na akua o lakou.
Who called them to their sacrifices. And they ate of them, and adored their gods.
3 Hui pu aku la ka Iseraela me Baalapeora: a ua hoaia mai la ka inaina o Iehova i ka Iseraela.
And Israel was initiated to Beelphegor: upon which the Lord being angry,
4 Olelo mai la o Iehova ia Mose, E lawe i na luna a pau o kanaka, e kau aku ia lakou imua o Iehova ma ka la, i hoohuliia'ku ai ka inaina nui o Iehova mai ka Iseraela aku.
Said to Moses: Take all the princes of the people, and hang them up on gibbets against the sun: that my fury may be turned away from Israel.
5 Olelo aku la o Mose i na lunakanawai o ka Iseraela, E pepehi oukou a pau i na kanaka o oukou i hui pu ia'ku me Baalapeora.
And Moses said to the judges of Israel: Let every man kill his neighbours, that have been initiated to Beelphegor.
6 Aia hoi, hele mai kekahi mamo a Iseraela, a lawe mai la i kekahi wahine no Midiana i na hoahanau ona, imua o na maka o Mose, a imua o na maka o ke anaina kanaka a pau o na mamo a Iseraela, e uwe ana lakou ma ka puka o ka halelewa o ke anaina.
And behold one of the children of Israel went in before his brethren to a harlot of Madian, in the sight of Moses, and of all the children of Israel, who were weeping before the door of the tabernacle.
7 A ike aku la o Pinehasa ke keiki a Eleazara ke keiki a Aarona ke kahuna, ku ae la ia mawaena o ke anaina kanaka, a lawe ae la ia i ka ihe ma kona lima;
And when Phinees the son of Eleazar the son of Aaron the priest saw it, he rose up from the midst; of the multitude, and taking a dagger,
8 Hahai aku la ia mamuli o ua kanaka la o ka Iseraela maloko o ka halelewa, a hou iho la ia laua a elua, i ke kanaka o ka Iseraela a me ka wahine ma kona opu. Pela no i paleia'i ke. ahulau mai na mamo a Iseraela aku.
Went in after the Israelite into the brothel house, and thrust both of them through together, to wit, the man and the woman in the genital parts. And the scourge ceased from the children of Israel:
9 A o ka poe i make i ke ahulau, he iwakaluakumamaha tausani lakou.
And there were slain four and twenty thousand men.
10 Olelo mai la o Iehova ia Mose, i mai la,
And the Lord said to Moses:
11 O Pinehasa ke keiki a Eleazara, ke keiki a Aarona ke kahuna, ua hoohuli ae ia i kuu inaina mai na mamo a Iseraela aku, no kona lili ana no'u iwaena o lakou; i hoopau ole ai au i na mamo a Iseraela i kuu lili ana.
Phinees the son of Eleazar the son of Aaron the priest, hath turned away my wrath from the children of Israel: because he was moved with my zeal against them, that I myself might not destroy the children of Israel in my zeal.
12 Nolaila, e i aku oe, Aia hoi, ke haawi aku nei au i kuu berita nona e malu ai.
Therefore say to him: Behold I give him the peace of my covenant,
13 Nona no ia, a no kana poe mamo mahope ona, o ka berita o ka oihana kahuna mau loa; no ka mea, ua lili oia no kona Akua, a ua hookalahala oia no na mamo a Iseraela.
And the covenant of the priesthood for ever shall be both to him and his seed, because he hath been zealous for his God, and hath made atonement for the wickedness of the children of Israel.
14 O ka inoa o ke kanaka Iseraela i pepehiia, i pepehi pu ia me ka wahine o Midiana, oia o Zimeri ke keiki a Salu, he luna o ka ohana kupuna no ka Simeona.
And the name of the Israelite, was slain with the woman of Madian, was Zambri the son of Salu, a prince the kindred and tribe of Simeon.
15 A o ka inoa o ka wahine no Midiana i pepehiia, oia o Kosebi, ke kaikamahine a Zura, he luna ia o kekahi poe kanaka, no ka ohana alii ma Midiana.
And the Madianite woman, that was slain with him, was called Cozbi the daughter of Sur, a most noble prince among the Madianites.
16 Olelo mai la o Iehova ia Mose, i mai la,
And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
17 E kaua aku oe i ko Midiana, a e pepehi ia lakou:
Let the Madianites find you enemies, and slay you them:
18 No ka mea, ke hoopilikia mai nei lakou ia oukou, me ka hoowalewale ana a lakou i hoowalewale mai ai ia oukou ma ka mea o Peora, a ma ka mea o Kosebi ke kaikamahine a kekahi alii o Midiana, ko lakou kaikuwahine, o ka mea i pepehiia i ka la o ke ahulau no Peora.
Because they also have acted like enemies against you, and have guilefully deceived you by the idol Phogor, and Cozbi their sister, a daughter of a prince of Madian, who was slain in the day the plague for the sacrilege of Phogor.
