Numero 31
1 Nagsao ni Yahweh kenni Moises ket kinunana,
The Lord told Moses,
2 “Ibalsam dagiti tattao ti Israel a maibusor kadagiti Medianita. Kalpasan a maaramidmo dayta, matayka ket maitiponkanto kadagiti tattaom.”
“Punish the Midianites because of what they did to the Israelites. After that you will join your forefathers in death.”
3 Isu a nagsao ni Moises kadagiti tattao. Kinunana, “Armasanyo dagiti sumagmamano a lallakiyo para iti gubat tapno mabalinda a makiranget iti Median ket ipatungpalda ti panangibales ni Yahweh iti daytoy.
Moses instructed the people, “Have some of your men get ready for battle, so they can go and attack the Midianites and carry out the Lord's punishment on them.
4 Masapul a mangibaon ti tunggal tribu iti entero nga Israel iti 1000 a soldado a makigubat.”
You are to contribute one thousand men from each Israelite tribe.”
5 Isu a manipud kadagiti rinibribu a lallaki ti Israel, adda ti 1000 a soldado a makigubat manipud iti tunggal tribu, 12, 000 a lallaki amin.
So one thousand men were chosen from each Israelite tribe, making twelve thousand troops ready for battle.
6 Ket imbaon ida ni Moises a mapan makigubat, 1000 iti tunggal tribu, a kaduada ni Finees nga anak a lalaki ni Eleazar a padi, ken sumagmamano nga alikamen manipud iti nasantoan a disso ken dagiti adda kenkuana a tangguyob a pagpakdaar.
Moses sent them into battle, one thousand from each tribe, together with Phinehas, son of Eleazar the priest. He carried with him the holy objects from the sanctuary and the trumpets used for giving signals.
7 Nakirangetda iti Median, kas imbilin ni Yahweh kenni Moises. Pinatayda ti tunggal lalaki.
They attacked the Midianites, as the Lord had told Moses to do, and they killed all the men.
8 Pinatayda dagiti ari ti Median agraman dagiti dadduma pay: da Evi, Rekem, Zur, Hur, ken Reba, dagiti lima nga ari ti Median. Pinatayda met ni Balaam nga anak a lalaki ni Beor, babaen iti kampilan.
Among those killed were the five kings of Midian, Evi, Rekem, Zur, Hur, and Reba. They also killed Balaam, son of Beor, with the sword.
9 Tiniliw dagiti armada ti Israel dagiti babbai ti Median, dagiti annakda, dagiti amin nga ayupda, amin nga arbanda, ken dagiti amin a sanikuada. Innalada dagitoy a kas sanikuada.
The Israelites captured the Midianite women and children, and they took as plunder all their herds, flocks, and possessions.
10 Pinuoranda amin a siudadda a pagnanaedanda ken dagiti amin a kampoda.
They set fire to all the Midianite towns and camps where they had lived,
11 Innalada dagiti amin a sanikua ken dagiti balud, dagiti tattao ken ay-ayup.
and carried away all the plunder and loot, including people and animals.
12 Impanda kenni Moises, kenni Eleazar a padi, ken kadagiti sangkagimongan dagiti tattao ti Israel dagiti balud, dagiti sanikuada, ken dagiti sinamsamda a banbanag. Impanda dagitoy iti kampo nga adda kadagiti kapatadan ti Moab, iti igid ti Jordan nga asideg idiay Jerico.
They brought the prisoners, loot, and plunder to Moses, to Eleazar the priest, and to the rest of the Israelites where they were camped on the plains of Moab, beside the Jordan opposite Jericho.
13 Sinabat ida ni Moises, ni Eleasar a padi ken dagiti amin a panguloen ti siudad iti ruar ti kampo.
Moses, Eleazar the priest, and all the Israelite leaders went out of the camp to meet them.
14 Ngem nakaunget ni Moises kadagiti opisial ti armada, kadagiti mangidadaulo kadagiti rinibu ken kadagiti kapitan dagiti ginasut a naggapu iti paggugubatan.
Moses was angry with the army officers, the commanders of thousands and commanders of hundreds, who returned from the battle.
15 Kinuna ni Moises kadakuada, “Impalubosyo kadi nga agbiag dagiti amin a babbai?
“Why did you let all the women live?” he asked them.
16 Kitaenyo, dagitoy a babbai ti makagapu a nagbasol dagiti tattao ti Israel maibusor kenni Yahweh babaen kadagiti pammagbaga ni Balaam iti kaaddada idiay Peor, idi nagwaras ti didigra kadagiti tattao ni Yahweh.
“You realize that these were the women seduced the Israelite men, leading them to be unfaithful to the Lord at Peor, following Balaam's advice! That's why the Lord's people suffered from the plague!
17 Ita ngarud, patayenyo ti tunggal ubbing a lallaki, ken patayenyo ti tunggal babai a nakikaidda iti lalaki.
So go and kill all the boys and every woman who has had slept with a man.
18 Ngem alaenyo para kadakayo dagiti amin a babbalasang a saan pay pulos a nakikaidda iti lalaki.
Let all the girls who are virgins live. They are yours.
19 Masapul nga agkampokayo iti ruar ti kampo ti Israel iti las-ud ti pito nga aldaw. Dakayo amin a nakapatay iti siasinoman wenno nangsagid iti aniaman a natay a tao—masapul a dalusanyo ti bagiyo iti maikatlo nga aldaw ken iti maikapito nga aldaw—dakayo ken dagiti baludyo.
All those of you who killed someone or touched a dead body must stay outside the camp for seven days. Purify yourselves and your prisoners on the third day and the seventh day.
20 Ken dalusanyo para kadagiti bagbagiyo dagiti tunggal pagan-anay, amin a naaramid manipud iti lalat ti ayup ken buok ti kalding, ken amin a naaramid iti kayo.”
Also purify all your clothing garment and anything made of leather, goat's hair, or wood.”
21 Kinuna ni Eleasar a padi kadagiti soldado a napan nakigubat, “Daytoy ket linteg nga inted ni Yahweh kenni Moises:
Eleazar the priest told the soldiers who had gone into battle, “These are the legal regulations that the Lord has ordered Moses to be carried out:
22 Dagiti balitok, pirak, bronse, landok, lata ken buli,
All that's made of gold, silver, bronze, iron, tin, and lead—
23 ken amin dagiti saan a mabalin a maipuor ket masapul nga ipuoryo ket agbalin daytoy a nadalus. Masapul a dalusanyo dagitoy a banbanag babaen iti danum a pangdalus. Aniaman a saan a mabalin a maipuor, masapul a dalusanyo babaen iti dayta a danum.
anything that doesn't burn—must be put through fire to make it clean. But it still has to be purified using water of purification. Anything that burns must be put through the water.
24 Ken masapul a labaanyo dagiti kawesyo iti maikapito nga aldaw, ket agbalinkayonto a nadalus. Kalpasanna, mabalinyon a sumrek iti kampo ti Israel.”
Wash your clothes on the seventh day and you will be clean. Then you can enter the camp.”
25 Ket nagsao ni Yahweh kenni Moises ket kinunana,
The Lord told Moses,
26 “Bilangenyo dagiti amin a nasamsam a banbanag, dagiti tattao ken dagiti ay-ayup. Sika Eleazar a padi, ken dagiti mangidadaulo kadagiti puli dagiti kapuonan dagiti tattao,
“You, Eleazar the priest, and the Israelite family leaders are to take a record of the people and animals that were captured.
27 masapul a bingayenyo iti dua a paset dagiti nasamsam a banbanag. Bingayenyo daytoy kadagiti soldado a napan nakigubat ken kadagiti amin a tattao.
Then divide them between the troops who went into battle and the rest of the Israelites.
28 Ket agurnongkayo iti buis a maited kaniak manipud kadagiti soldado a napan nakigubat. Daytoy a buis ket masapul a maysa iti tunggal 500, kadagiti tao man, baka, asno karnero wenno kalding.
Take as a contribution to the Lord from what is allocated to the troops who went into battle one out of every five hundred people, cattle, donkeys, or sheep.
29 Alaenyo dagitoy a buis iti bingayda ket itedyo kenni Eleazar a padi para iti daton a maidatag kaniak.
Take this from their half share and give it to Eleazar the priest as an offering to the Lord.
30 Kasta met iti kagudua a bingay dagiti Israelita, masapul a mangalakayo iti maysa iti tunggal 50—manipud kadagiti tattao, baka, asno, karnero, ken kalding. Itedyo dagitoy kadagiti Levita a mangay-aywan iti tabernakulok.”
From the Israelites; half share, take one out of every fifty people, cattle, donkeys, or sheep, or other animals, and give them to the Levites who take care of the Lord's Tabernacle.”
31 Inaramid ngarud ni Moises ken ni Eleazar ti imbilin ni Yahweh kenni Moises.
Moses and Eleazar the priest did as the Lord had ordered Moses.
32 Ita, dagiti sanikua a nabati kadagiti sinamsam dagiti soldado ket 675, 000 a karnero,
This was the list of plunder remaining that had been looted by the troops: 675,000 sheep,
33 72, 000 a baka,
72,000 cattle,
34 61, 000 nga asno ken
61,000 donkeys,
35 32, 000 a babbai a saan pay a nakikaidda iti siasinoman a lalaki.
and 32,000 virgins.
36 Ti kagudua a nailasin para kadagiti soldado ket agdagup iti 337, 000 a karnero.
This was the half share for those who had gone to fight: 337,500 sheep,

with a contribution for the Lord of 675,
38 Dagiti baka ket 36, 000, ket 72 ti naibuis kenni Yahweh.

and 16,000 people, with a Lord's contribution of 32.
41 Innala ni Moises ti buis nga agpaay a kas daton a maidatag kenni Yahweh. Intedna daytoy kenni Eleazar a padi, kas imbilin ni Yahweh kenni Moises.
Moses gave the contribution to Eleazar the priest as an offering to the Lord as the Lord had ordered Moses.
42 No maipapan iti bingay dagiti tattao ti Israel nga innala ni Moises kadagiti soldado a napan nakigubat—
The Israelites' half share left after Moses had given the half share to the troops who had gone to fight,
43 ti kagudua a bingay dagiti tattao ket 337, 500 a karnero,
consisted of: 337,500 sheep,
44 36, 000 a baka,
36,000 cattle,
45 30, 500 nga asno
30,500 donkeys,
46 ken 16, 000 a babbai.
and 16,000 people.
47 Manipud iti kagudua a bingay dagiti tattao ti Israel, nangala ni Moises iti maysa iti tunggal 50, kadagiti tattao ken ay-ayup. Intedna dagitoy kadagiti Levita a mangay-aywan iti tabernakulo ni Yahweh, kas imbilin ni Yahweh kenkuana nga aramidenna.
Moses took from the Israelites' half one out of every fifty people and animals and gave them the Levites who take care of the Lord's Tabernacle, as the Lord had ordered him.
48 Ket dimmatag kenni Moises dagiti opisial ti armada, dagiti mangidadaulo kadagiti rinibu ken dagiti kapitan dagiti ginasut.
The army officers, the commanders of thousands and commanders of hundreds, came to Moses
49 Kinunada kenkuana, “Binilang dagiti adipenmo dagiti soldado nga iturturayanmi, ket awan ti uray maysa a mapukpukaw.
and told him, “We, your servants, have checked the troops we command and not a single man is missing.
50 Nangiyegkami iti daton para kenni Yahweh, ti nasarakan ti tunggal lalaki ket alikamen a balitok, singsing ken purselas, pangselio a singsing, aritos, kuentas, a kas pangsubbot para kadagiti bagimi iti sangoanan ni Yahweh.”
So we have brought the Lord an offering of the gold objects each man received—armlets, bracelets, rings, earrings, and necklaces—in order that we may be right before the Lord.”
51 Inawat ni Moises ken ni Eleazar ti balitok manipud kadakuada ken amin dagiti nakitikitan a banbanag.
Moses and Eleazar the priest accepted from them all the objects made out of gold.
52 Amin a balitok kadagiti daton nga intedda kenni Yahweh—dagiti daton manipud kadagiti mangidadaulo kadagiti rinibu ken manipud kadagiti kapitan dagiti ginasut, ket agdagsen iti 16, 750 a sikel.
The gold that the commanders of thousands and of hundreds gave as an offering to the Lord weighed in total 16,750 shekels.
53 Nangala ti tunggal soldado iti sanikua, tunggal lalaki para iti bukodna.
(The men who had fought in the battle had each taken plunder for himself.)
54 Innala ni Moises ken ni Eleazar a padi ti balitok kadagiti mangidadaulo kadagiti rinibu ken kadagiti kapitan dagiti ginasut. Impanda daytoy iti tabernakulo a kas palagip kadagiti Israelita para kenni Yahweh.
Moses and Eleazar the priest accepted the gold from the commanders of thousands and of hundreds and took it into the Tent of Meeting as a memorial offering for the Israelites in the presence of the Lord.
