Ọnụọgụgụ 31
1 Mgbe ahụ, Onyenwe anyị gwara Mosis okwu sị ya,
And the LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
2 “Taa ndị Midia ahụhụ, ka i si otu a bọọrọ ndị Izrel ọbọ ihe ọjọọ ndị Midia mere ha. Mgbe i mesịrị nke a, ị ga-anwụ.”
Avenge the children of Israel of the Midianites: afterward shalt thou be gathered to thy people.
3 Ya mere, Mosis gwara ndị Izrel okwu sị, “Kwadoonụ ndị ikom unu ibuso ndị Midia agha, maka ịbọtara Onyenwe anyị ọbọ.
And Moses spoke to the people, saying, Arm some of yourselves for the war, and let them go against the Midianites, and avenge the LORD on Midian.
4 Sinụ nʼebo ọbụla dị nʼIzrel gụpụta puku ndị ikom puku ndị ikom.”
Of every tribe a thousand, throughout all the tribes of Israel, shall ye send to the war.
5 Ya mere, e sitere nʼigwe ndị ikom niile nọ nʼIzrel zipụ puku ndị ikom iri na abụọ, ka ha gaa buo agha. Ebo ọbụla zipụrụ otu puku ndị ikom.
So there were delivered out of the thousands of Israel, a thousand of every tribe, twelve thousand armed for war.
6 Mosis zipụrụ ha ibu agha, otu puku, otu puku site nʼebo ọbụla. Finehaz nwa Elieza, onye nchụaja, du ha gaa agha ahụ. O bu ngwongwo si nʼebe nsọ, tinyere opi ike nke a ga-afụ.
And Moses sent them to the war, a thousand of every tribe, them and Phinehas the son of Eleazar the priest, to the war, with the holy instruments, and the trumpets to blow in his hand.
7 Ha busoro ndị Midia agha dịka Onyenwe anyị nyere Mosis nʼiwu. Ha gburu onye ọbụla bụ nwoke.
And they warred against the Midianites, as the LORD commanded Moses; and they slew all the males.
8 Nʼime ndị ha gburu nʼagha ahụ bụ ndị eze Midia ise a na-akpọ Evi, Rekem, Zua, Hua na Reba. Ha jikwa mma agha gbuo Belam nwa Beoa.
And they slew the kings of Midian, besides the rest of them that were slain; namely, Evi, and Rekem, and Zur, and Hur, and Reba, five kings of Midian: Balaam also the son of Beor they slew with the sword.
9 Ndị agha Izrel chịkọtara ndị inyom niile, na ụmụntakịrị niile nọ nʼala Midia dịka ndị ha dọtara nʼagha. Ha chịkọtara ngwongwo niile ndị Midia ji biri, tinyere igwe ehi, na igwe ewu na atụrụ ha niile, dịka ihe ha dọtara nʼagha.
And the children of Israel took all the women of Midian captives, and their little ones, and took the spoil of all their cattle, and all their flocks, and all their goods.
10 Emesịa, ha mụnyere ọkụ nʼobodo ndị Midia niile na ebe ha mara ụlọ ikwu, rechapụ ha nʼọkụ.
And they burnt all their cities in which they dwelt, and all their goodly castles, with fire.
11 Ha chịkọtara ihe niile ha dọtara nʼagha, ma mmadụ ma anụ ụlọ.
And they took all the spoil, and all the prey, both of men and of beasts.
12 Ndị a niile ha dọtara nʼagha na ngwongwo niile ha lụtara nʼagha ka ha buteere Mosis, na Elieza onye nchụaja na ọgbakọ Izrel niile na mbara ala Moab, nʼakụkụ osimiri Jọdan na ncherita ihu Jeriko.
And they brought the captives, and the prey, and the spoil, to Moses, and Eleazar the priest, and to the congregation of the children of Israel, to the camp at the plains of Moab, which are by Jordan near Jericho.
13 Mosis na Elieza onye nchụaja na ndị ndu ọgbakọ Izrel niile pụrụ gaa zute ha nʼazụ ebe ha mara ụlọ ikwu ha.
And Moses, and Eleazar the priest, and all the princes of the congregation, went forth to meet them outside the camp.
14 Ma Mosis were iwe megide ndịisi agha, ya bụ ndị ahụ na-achị imerime puku ndị agha, na ndị ọchịagha na-achị narị ndị agha, ndị si ibu agha lọta.
And Moses was angry with the officers of the host, with the captains over thousands, and captains over hundreds, who came from the battle.
15 Mosis jụrụ ha sị, “Gịnị mere unu ji debe ndị inyom niile ndị a ndụ?
And Moses said to them, Have ye saved all the women alive?
16 Ọ bụ ndị a bụ ndị gbasoro ndụmọdụ Belam, rafuo ndị Izrel mee ka ha ghọọ ndị na-ekwesighị ntụkwasị obi nye Onyenwe anyị nʼihe gbasara okwu Peoa. Ọ bụ nke a mere ka nrịa nrịa ọjọọ ahụ na-efe efe dakwasị ndị nke Onyenwe anyị.
Behold, these caused the children of Israel, through the counsel of Balaam, to commit trespass against the LORD in the matter of Peor, and there was a plague among the congregation of the LORD.
17 Ugbu a, gbuonụ ụmụnta ndị nwoke niile, na ndị inyom niile matarala nwoke.
Now therefore kill every male among the little ones, and kill every woman that hath known man by lying with him.
18 Naanị ụmụntakịrị ndị nwanyị ha nke nwoke na-edinabeghị ka unu ga-ahapụ ka ha dịrị ndụ. Unu nwere ike debere onwe unu ndị dị otu a.
But all the girls, that have not known a man by lying with him, keep alive for yourselves.
19 “Ma ugbu a, unu niile bụ ndị soro gbuo mmadụ, maọbụ bitụ ozu ha aka, unu abatala nʼime ogige Izrel tutu ụbọchị asaa agafee. Nʼoge a, doonụ onwe unu ọcha, dokwaanụ ndị niile unu dọtara nʼagha ọcha, nʼụbọchị nke atọ na nʼụbọchị nke asaa.
And do ye abide outside the camp seven days: whoever hath killed any person, and whoever hath touched any slain, purify both yourselves and your captives on the third day, and on the seventh day.
20 Debekwanụ uwe niile ọcha, ya na ihe niile e ji akpụkpọ anụ na ajị ewu, maọbụ osisi, mee.”
And purify all your raiment, and all that is made of skins, and all work of goats’ hair, and all things made of wood.
21 Mgbe ahụ, Elieza onye nchụaja gwara ndị ikom niile ahụ jere agha okwu sị ha, “Nke a bụ iwu Onyenwe anyị nyere Mosis.
And Eleazar the priest said to the men of war who went to the battle, This is the ordinance of the law which the LORD commanded Moses;
22 Otu ọ dị ọlaedo, ọlaọcha, bronz, igwe, gbamgbam na opu,
Only the gold, and the silver, the brass, the iron, the tin, and the lead,
23 na ihe ọ bụla ọzọ bụ nke ga-anagide ọkụ, ka a ga-eme ka ọ gabiga site nʼọkụ, mgbe ahụ ọ ga-adịkwa ọcha. Ma aghaghị ịga nʼihu ime ka ha dị ọcha site nʼịsacha ha nʼime mmiri nke nsacha. Ma ihe ọbụla nke na-agaghị anagide ọkụ ka a ga-eji mmiri sachaa, maka ido ya ọcha.
Every thing that may abide the fire, ye shall make it go through the fire, and it shall be clean: nevertheless it shall be purified with the water of separation: and all that abideth not the fire ye shall make go through the water.
24 Nʼụbọchị nke asaa, unu aghaghị ịsacha uwe unu niile, bụrụ ndị dị ọcha. Mgbe ahụ, unu pụrụ ịlọghachi nʼọmụma ụlọ ikwu ndị Izrel.”
And ye shall wash your clothes on the seventh day, and ye shall be clean, and afterward ye shall come into the camp.
25 Ma Onyenwe anyị sịrị Mosis,
And the LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
26 “Gị na Elieza onye nchụaja, na ndịisi ezinaụlọ nke ọgbakọ Izrel niile, ga-agụkọ ihe niile unu dọtara nʼagha chọpụta ọnụọgụgụ mmadụ na anụmanụ.
Take the sum of the prey that was taken, both of man and of beast, thou, and Eleazar the priest, and the chief fathers of the congregation:
27 Mgbe ahụ, kee ihe ndị a niile ụzọ abụọ. Ọkara ya ga-abụ nke ndị ikom ahụ niile gara agha, ma ọkara nke ọzọ ka a ga-enye ọgbakọ Izrel niile.
And divide the prey into two parts; between them that took the war upon them, who went out to battle, and between all the congregation:
28 Ma Onyenwe anyị nwere oke site nʼoke ndị ahụ jere agha: mmadụ, na ehi niile, na ịnyịnya ibu niile, na atụrụ na ewu niile. Oke Onyenwe anyị bụ otu ụzọ nʼime narị ise ọbụla.
And levy a tribute to the LORD of the men of war who went out to battle: one soul of five hundred, both of the persons, and of the cattle, and of the donkeys, and of the sheep:
29 Nye Elieza onye nchụaja oke sitere nʼaja a dịka ihe Onyenwe anyị ketara.
Take it of their half, and give it to Eleazar the priest, for an heave offering of the LORD.
30 Otu aka ahụ kwa, site nʼoke ndị Izrel ga-eketa, kee ụtụ. Otu ụzọ nʼime iri ise, maọbụ mmadụ, maọbụ ehi, maọbụ ịnyịnya ibu, maọbụ atụrụ, maọbụ ewu, maọbụ igwe anụ ụlọ ụzọ. Were ha nye ndị Livayị, ndị ọ dị nʼaka ilekọta ụlọ nzute Onyenwe anyị, ka ọ bụrụ oke nke ha.”
And of the children of Israel’s half, thou shalt take one portion of fifty, of the persons, of the cattle, of the donkeys, and of the flocks, of all manner of beasts, and give them to the Levites, who keep the charge of the tabernacle of the LORD.
31 Ya mere, Mosis na Elieza onye nchụaja mere dịka Onyenwe anyị nyere ha nʼiwu.
And Moses and Eleazar the priest did as the LORD commanded Moses.
32 Ihe nweta bụ nke fọdụrụ nʼihe ndị agha lụtara nʼagha bụ ndị a, bụ atụrụ dị narị puku isii, iri puku asaa na puku ise,
And the booty, being the rest of the prey which the men of war had taken, was six hundred thousand and seventy thousand and five thousand sheep,
33 Ehi dị iri puku asaa na puku abụọ,
And seventy and two thousand cattle,
34 ịnyịnya ibu dị iri puku isii na otu puku,
And sixty and one thousand donkeys,
35 Ụmụ agbọghọ na-amatabeghị nwoke dị iri puku atọ na puku abụọ.
And thirty and two thousand persons in all, of women that had not known man by lying with him.
36 Ya mere, ọkara e nyere ndị gara lụọ agha dị: Igwe ewu na atụrụ dị narị puku atọ na iri puku atọ na puku asaa na narị ise.
And the half, which was the portion of them that went out to war, was in number three hundred thousand and seven and thirty thousand and five hundred sheep:
37 Nʼime ya, ụtụ e nyere Onyenwe anyị site nʼigwe atụrụ ahụ dị narị isii na iri asaa na ise.
And the LORD’S tribute of the sheep was six hundred and seventy and five.
38 Igwe ehi dị iri puku atọ na puku isii. Nʼime ya, ihe e nyere Onyenwe anyị bụ iri asaa na abụọ.
And the cattle were thirty and six thousand; of which the LORD’S tribute was seventy and two.
39 Ịnyịnya ibu dị iri puku atọ na narị ise. Nke e nyere Onyenwe anyị bụ iri isii na otu.
And the donkeys were thirty thousand and five hundred; of which the LORD’S tribute was sixty and one.
40 Ọnụọgụgụ ụmụ agbọghọ dị puku iri na isii. Ndị e nyere Onyenwe anyị dị iri atọ na abụọ.
And the persons were sixteen thousand; of which the LORD’S tribute was thirty and two persons.
41 Mosis nyere Elieza bụ onye nchụaja Onyenwe anyị oke nʼihe ndị ahụ niile a tụrụ nʼụtụ, dịka Onyenwe anyị nyere Mosis nʼiwu.
And Moses gave the tribute, which was the LORD’S heave offering, to Eleazar the priest, as the LORD commanded Moses.
42 Ma ọkara nke ahụ dịrị ndị Izrel, nke Mosis kewapụtara site na nke ndị ikom lụrụ agha.
And of the children of Israel’s half, which Moses divided from the men that warred,
43 Ọkara nke nzukọ dị, igwe ewu na atụrụ, narị puku atọ, iri puku atọ, puku asaa na narị ise,
(Now the half that pertained to the congregation was three hundred thousand and thirty thousand and seven thousand and five hundred sheep,
44 igwe ehi, iri puku atọ na isii,
And thirty and six thousand cattle,
45 ịnyịnya ibu, iri puku atọ na narị ise,
And thirty thousand donkeys and five hundred,
46 ụmụ agbọghọ, puku iri na isii.
And sixteen thousand persons; )
47 Site nʼoke ndị Izrel Mosis họpụtara otu ụzọ nʼime iri ise, ma mmadụ ma anụ ụlọ dịka Onyenwe anyị nyere nʼiwu. O nyere ha ndị Livayị na-elekọta ụlọ nzute Onyenwe anyị mmadụ na anụ ụlọ ndị a.
Even of the children of Israel’s half, Moses took one portion of fifty, both of man and of beast, and gave them to the Levites, who kept the charge of the tabernacle of the LORD; as the LORD commanded Moses.
48 Mgbe ahụ, ndịisi agha niile na ndị ọchịagha na-achị imerime puku ndị agha, na ndị na-achị narị ndị agha bịakwutere Mosis,
And the officers who were over thousands of the host, the captains of thousands, and captains of hundreds, came near to Moses:
49 sị ya, “Ndị ohu gị agụọla ndị niile gara agha nọ nʼokpuru anyị, chọpụta na o nweghị onye ọbụla a na-achọ achọ.
And they said to Moses, Thy servants have taken the sum of the men of war who are under our charge, and there lacketh not one man of us.
50 Ya mere, anyị wetaara Onyenwe anyị onyinye site nʼihe anyị kwatara nʼagha. Onyinye anyị bụ ihe onye ọbụla nwetara, ihe ọlaedo a na-agba nʼụkwụ na mgbaaka, na ọlaaka ikike, na ọlantị na ihe iyi nʼolu niile, i ji ha chụọ aja mkpuchi mmehie nʼihi onwe anyị nʼihu Onyenwe anyị.”
We have therefore brought an oblation for the LORD, what every man hath obtained, of jewels of gold, chains, and bracelets, rings, earrings, and necklaces, to make an atonement for our souls before the LORD.
51 Mosis na Elieza onye nchụaja natara onyinye ọlaedo ndị ahụ bụ ihe a kpụrụ akpụ site nʼaka ha.
And Moses and Eleazar the priest took the gold of them, even all wrought jewels.
52 Ịdị arọ nke ihe ọlaedo niile nke ndị ọchịagha na-achị imerime puku ndị agha, na ndị na-achị narị ndị agha, nke Mosis na Elieza chere nʼihu Onyenwe anyị dịka onyinye, dị narị kilogram na iri itoolu.
And all the gold of the offering that they offered to the LORD, of the captains of thousands, and of the captains of hundreds, was sixteen thousand seven hundred and fifty shekels.
53 Ndị ahụ lụrụ agha ahụ nwekwara ọtụtụ ihe ndị ọzọ ha debeere onwe ha.
( For the men of war had taken spoil, every man for himself.)
54 Mosis na Elieza onye nchụaja natara onyinye ọlaedo ndị a dị iche site nʼaka ndị ọchịagha na-achị ọtụtụ puku ndị agha na narị ndị agha. E webatara onyinye ndị a nʼụlọ nzute, debe ha nʼihu Onyenwe anyị ka ọ bụrụ ihe ncheta nye Onyenwe anyị nʼihi ndị Izrel niile.
And Moses and Eleazar the priest took the gold of the captains of thousands and of hundreds, and brought it into the tabernacle of the congregation, for a memorial for the children of Israel before the LORD.
