Ọnụọgụgụ 25
1 Mgbe Izrel bi na Shitim, ndị ikom ha malitere isoro ndị inyom Moab na-akwa iko.
Nowe whiles Israel abode in Shittim, the people began to commit whoredome with the daughters of Moab:
2 Ndị inyom a kpọrọ ha ka ha bịa soro na mmemme ịchụ aja nye chi ha niile. Ndị Izrel riri nri ihe aja ahụ, kpọọkwa isiala nye chi ndị a niile.
Which called the people vnto the sacrifice of their gods, and the people ate, and bowed downe to their gods.
3 Ya mere, ndị Izrel sonyere na-akpọ isiala nye chi Baal nke Peoa. Nke a mere ka iwe Onyenwe anyị nwuru ọkụ megide ha.
And Israel coupled himselfe vnto Baal Peor: wherefore the wrath of the Lord was kindled against Israel:
4 Onyenwe anyị gwara Mosis okwu sị ya, “Duru ndị ndu ebo niile nke Izrel gbuo ha ma kwụnye ha nʼosisi nʼihu Onyenwe anyị nʼetiti ehihie, ka oke iwe Onyenwe anyị dị ọkụ ghara ịbịakwasị ndị Izrel.”
And the Lord sayde vnto Moses, Take all the heades of the people, and hang them vp before the Lord against ye sunne, that the indignation of the Lords wrath may be turned from Israel.
5 Ya mere, Mosis sịrị ndị ọkaikpe Izrel, “Onye ọbụla nʼime unu aghaghị igbu ndị unu, bụ ndị jikọtara onwe ha na Baal nke Peoa.”
Then Moses sayd vnto the Iudges of Israel, Euery one slay his men that were ioyned vnto Baal Peor.
6 Mgbe ahụ, otu nwoke onye Izrel kpọbatara nʼime ụlọ ikwu otu nwanyị onye Midia, nʼihu Mosis na nzukọ Izrel niile, mgbe ha niile nọ na-akwa akwa nʼọnụ ụzọ ụlọ nzute ahụ.
And behold, one of the children of Israel came and brought vnto his brethren a Midianitish woman in the sight of Moses, and in the sight of all the Congregation of the children of Israel, who wept before the doore of the Tabernacle of the Congregation.
7 Mgbe Finehaz na Elieza, nwa Erọn, onye nchụaja hụrụ ihe a, ọ hapụrụ ọgbakọ Izrel. O were ùbe nʼaka ya,
And when Phinehas the sonne of Eleazar the sonne of Aaron the Priest sawe it, hee rose vp from the middes of the Congregation, and tooke a speare in his hand,
8 soro nwoke ahụ baa nʼime ụlọ, ebe ya na nwaagbọghọ ahụ dina. Ọ mara ha ùbe ahụ, nke si nʼahụ nwoke ahụ gafee mikpuo nʼafọ nwaagbọghọ ahụ. Nke a mere ka ihe otiti ahụ na-emegide ndị Izrel kwụsị.
And followed ye man of Israel into the tent, and thrust them both through: to wit, the man of Israel, and the woman, through her belly: so the plague ceased from the children of Israel.
9 Ma tupu ihe otiti ahụ akwụsị, ndị mmadụ ọnụọgụgụ ha ruru iri puku abụọ na anọ anwụọlarị.
And there died in that plague, foure and twentie thousand.
10 Onyenwe anyị gwara Mosis okwu sị,
Then the Lord spake vnto Moses, saying,
11 “Finehaz nwa Elieza, nwa Erọn, onye nchụaja, emeela ka iwe m megide Izrel dajụọ. Nʼihi na o nwere ịnụ ọkụ nʼobi dịka mụ onwe m banyere idebe nsọpụrụ m nsọ nʼetiti ha, ka m ghara isite nʼịnụ ọkụ nke obi m bibie ha.
Phinehas the sonne of Eleazar, the sonne of Aaron the Priest, hath turned mine anger away from the children of Israel, while hee was zealous for my sake among them: therefore I haue not consumed the children of Israel in my ielousie.
12 Ya mere, gwa ya, na m na-eme ka ọgbụgba ndụ udo m dịrị ya.
Wherefore say to him, Beholde, I giue vnto him my couenant of peace,
13 Ya na ụmụ ụmụ ya ka ọgbụgba ndụ ebighị ebi nke ịrụ ọrụ nchụaja ga-adịrị, nʼihi na o nwere ịnụ ọkụ nʼobi banyere nsọpụrụ nke Chineke ya, si otu a chụọrọ ndị Izrel aja ikpuchi mmehie.”
And he shall haue it, and his seede after him, euen the couenant of the priestes office for euer, because he was zealous for his God, and hath made an atonement for the children of Israel.
14 Aha nwoke Izrel ahụ e gburu ya na nwanyị onye Midia ahụ bụ Zimri, nwa Salu, onyendu otu ezinaụlọ nʼebo Simiọn.
And the name of the Israelite thus slayne, which was killed with the Midianitish woman, was Zimri the sonne of Salu, prince of the familie of the Simeonites.
15 Aha nwanyị Midia ahụ e gburu bụ Kozbi, nwa nwanyị Zua, onye bụ otu nʼime ndịisi ezinaụlọ na Midia.
And the name of the Midianitish woman, that was slayne, was Cozbi the daughter of Zur, who was head ouer the people of his fathers house in Midian.
16 Onyenwe anyị gwara Mosis okwu sị ya,
Againe ye Lord spake vnto Moses, saying,
17 “Mesoo ndị Midia mmeso dịka ndị iro. Gbukwaa ha.
Vexe the Midianites, and smite them:
18 Nʼihi na ha mesoro unu mmeso dịka ndị iro mgbe ha ji ụzọ aghụghọ ghọgbuo unu nʼokwu Peoa, na nʼokwu Kozbi nwanne ha nwanyị, bụ nwa nwanyị otu nʼime ndịisi Midia, onye e gburu mgbe ihe otiti ahụ bịara nʼihi okwu Peoa.”
For they trouble you with their wiles, wherewith they haue beguiled you as concerning Peor, and as concerning their sister Cozbi ye daughter of a prince of Midian, which was slayne in the day of the plague because of Peor.
