Oekyuk 31
1 LEUM GOD El fahk nu sel Moses,
And the LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
2 “Folokin nu sin mwet Midian ke ma elos tuh oru nu sin mwet Israel. Toko, na kom fah misa.”
Avenge the children of Israel of the Midianites: afterward shalt thou be gathered to thy people.
3 Ouinge Moses el fahk nu sin mwet uh, “Akola nu ke mweun, tuh kowos fah ku in tuyak lain mwet Midian ac kalyaelos ke sripen ma elos oru nu sin LEUM GOD.
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 Kowos in supwala kais sie tausin mwet mweun ke kais sie sruf lun Israel.”
Of every tribe a thousand, throughout all the tribes of Israel, shall ye send to the war.
5 Ouinge sie tausin mwet solla liki kais sie sruf, orala pisa lulap se ke mwet singoul luo tausin su akola nu ke mweun.
So there were delivered out of the thousands of Israel, a thousand of [every] tribe, twelve thousand armed for war.
6 Moses el supwalosla nu ke mweun ye koko lal Phinehas, wen natul Eleazar mwet tol, su us kufwa ke lohm nuknuk mutal ac mwe ukuk in sulkakin pacl in mweun.
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 Elos mutawauk mweuni mwet Midian oana LEUM GOD El sapkin nu sel Moses, ac onela mukul nukewa,
And they warred against the Midianites, as the LORD commanded Moses; and they slew all the males.
8 weang tokosra limekosr lun Midian inge: Evi, Rekem, Zur, Hur, ac Reba. Elos oayapa unilya Balaam wen natul Beor.
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 Mwet Israel elos sruokya mutan Midian ac tulik natulos, oayapa cow ac un sheep ac nani natulos, ac usla ma lalos nukewa.
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 Elos esukak siti nukewa selos, ac nien aktuktuk selos.
And they burnt all their cities in which they dwelt, and all their goodly castles, with fire.
11 Elos eis ma wap nukewa, wi mwet sruoh ac kosro uh,
And they took all the spoil, and all the prey, [both] of men and of beasts.
12 ac use ma inge nu yorol Moses ac Eleazar ac mwet Israel nukewa su muta in nien aktuktuk se in acn mwesis lun Moab, kutulap in Infacl Jordan, tulanang Jericho.
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 Moses, Eleazar, ac mwet kol nukewa saya lun mwet Israel elos illa liki nien aktuktuk in osun nu sin mwet mweun.
And Moses, and Eleazar the priest, and all the princes of the congregation, went forth to meet them without the camp.
14 Moses el kasrkusrakak sin mwet kol lun un mwet mweun, captain lun tausin ac captain lun foko, su foloko liki mweun uh.
And Moses was wroth with the officers of the host, [with] the captains over thousands, and captains over hundreds, who came from the battle.
15 El siyuk selos, “Efu kowos ku lela mutan inge nukewa in moul na?
And Moses said to them, Have ye saved all the women alive?
16 Esam lah mutan inge pa tuh ukwe na ma Balaam el fahk nu selos, na in acn Peor elos kolla mwet uh in tia pwaye nu sin LEUM GOD. Pa sis mwe lokoalok upa sac tuh sikyak nu sin mwet lun God.
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 Ke ma inge, uniya tulik mukul nukewa, oayapa mutan nukewa su etu mukul tari,
Now therefore kill every male among the little ones, and kill every woman that hath known man by lying with him.
18 tusruktu karinganang nu suwos tulik mutan nukewa ac mutan su soenna etu mukul.
But all the female children, that have not known a man by lying with him, keep alive for yourselves.
19 Inge kowos nukewa su uniya kutena mwet, ku pusralla kutena mano misa, enenu in muta likin nien aktuktuk uh ke len itkosr. Ke len se aktolu ac len se akitkosr, kowos in aknasnasye kowos sifacna ac mutan ma sruhu ke mweun.
And do ye abide without 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 Kowos oayapa enenu in aknasnasye nuknuk lowos nukewa ac ma nukewa ma orekla ke kulun kosro, unen nani, ku ma orekla ke sak.”
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 Eleazar mwet tol el fahk nu sin mukul nukewa su foloko liki mweun, “Pa inge ma LEUM GOD El sapkin nu sel Moses:
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 Gold, silver, bronze, osra, tin, ac lead —
Only the gold, and the silver, the brass, the iron, the tin, and the lead,
23 ma nukewa ma tia motok e, ac fah aknasnasyeyuk in e uh. Tusruktu enenu pac in aknasnasyeyuk ke kof in aknasnas. Ac kutena ma su motok e, ac fah isosyang nu in kof sac.
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 Ke len se akitkosr kowos fah ohlla nuknuk lowos, na kowos fah nasnasla, ac kowos fah ku in ilyak nu in nien aktuktuk.”
And ye shall wash your clothes on the seventh day, and ye shall be clean, and afterward ye shall come into the camp.
25 LEUM GOD El fahk nu sel Moses,
And the LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
26 “Kom ac Eleazar, wi mwet kol saya lun mwet Israel, in oakla ma nukewa ma utuku ke mweun, wi mwet sruoh ac un kosro.
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 Kitalik ma utukeni nu ke ip luo, na sang tafu lun mwet mweun, ac tafu lun mwet Israel ngia.
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 Ke ip lun mwet mweun an, kom fah srela sie liki inmasrlon kais lumfoko nukewa tuh in mwe takma nu sin LEUM GOD— ke mwet sruoh, ac ke un cow, donkey, sheep ac nani.
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 beeves, and of the asses, and of the sheep:
29 Sang ma ingan nu sel Eleazar mwet tol, tuh in sie mwe sang mutal nu sin LEUM GOD.
Take [it] of their half, and give [it] to Eleazar the priest, [for] a heave-offering of the LORD.
30 Ke ip lun mwet nukewa saya, kom fah srela sie liki kais lumngaul nukewa ke mwet sruoh, ac oru oapana nu ke un cow, donkey, sheep, ac nani. Sang ma inge nu sin mwet Levi su liyaung Lohm Nuknuk Mutal sin LEUM GOD.”
And of the children of Israel's half, thou shalt take one portion of fifty, of the persons, of the beeves, of the asses, 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 Moses ac Eleazar oru oana ma LEUM GOD El sapkin.
And Moses and Eleazar the priest did as the LORD commanded Moses.
32 Pisen ma wap nukewa ma un mwet mweun uh sruokya oasr ke onfoko itngoul limekosr tausin sheep ac nani,
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 itngoul luo tausin cow,
And seventy two thousand beeves,
34 onngoul sie tausin donkey,
And sixty one thousand asses,
35 ac tolngoul luo tausin mutan su tia etu mukul.
And thirty and two thousand persons in all, of women that had not known man by lying with him.
36 Ip lun mwet mweun uh, oasr ke tolfoko tolngoul itkosr tausin lumfoko sheep ac nani,
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 ac ip kac ma itukyang nu sin LEUM GOD oasr ke onfoko itngoul limekosr sheep ac nani.
And the LORD'S tribute of the sheep was six hundred and seventy five.
38 Pisen cow uh oasr ke tausin tolngoul onkosr, ac ip lun LEUM GOD kac oasr ke itngoul luo.
And the beeves [were] thirty and six thousand; of which the LORD'S tribute [was] seventy two.
39 Pisen donkey uh oasr ke tolngoul tausin lumfoko, ac ip lun LEUM GOD kac oasr onngoul soko.
And the asses [were] thirty thousand and five hundred; of which the LORD'S tribute [was] sixty one.
40 Pisen mutan fusr uh oasr ke tausin singoul onkosr, ac ip lun LEUM GOD kac uh pa mutan tolngoul luo.
And the persons [were] sixteen thousand, of which the LORD'S tribute [was] thirty and two persons.
41 Moses el sang nu sel Eleazar takma inge, su sie mwe sang mutal nu sin LEUM GOD, oana ke LEUM GOD El sapkin.
And Moses gave the tribute, [which was] the LORD'S heave-offering, to Eleazar the priest, as the LORD commanded Moses.
42 Ac ip se lun mwet Israel, ma Moses el srela liki ma lun un mwet mweun uh,
And of the children of Israel's half, which Moses divided from the men that warred,
43 oasr tolfoko tolngoul itkosr tausin lumfoko sheep ac nani,
(Now the half [that pertained to] the congregation was three hundred thousand and thirty thousand [and] seven thousand and five hundred sheep,
44 tolngoul onkosr tausin cow,
And thirty and six thousand beeves,
45 tolngoul tausin lumfoko donkey,
And thirty thousand asses and five hundred,
46 ac singoul onkosr tausin mutan fusr.
And sixteen thousand persons; )
47 Liki ip lun mwet Israel, Moses el eisla kais sie liki lumngaul nukewa, ke mwet sruoh ac ke kosro uh, ac el sang ma inge nu sin mwet Levi su karingin Lohm Nuknuk Mutal sin LEUM GOD, oana LEUM GOD El sapkin.
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 Toko mwet kol su karingin un mwet mweun elos som nu yorol Moses
And the officers who [were] over thousands of the hosts, the captains of thousands, and captains of hundreds, came near to Moses:
49 ac fahk, “Leum se, kut oakla mwet mweun lasr, ac wangin sie selos tuhlac.
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 Ke ma inge kut use mwe yun gold, mwe lohlpo, sein gold, ring, yaring, ah in walwal, ma kais sie sesr sifani. Kut sang ma inge nu sin LEUM GOD tuh in mwe srui lasr ke El molikutla.”
We have therefore brought an oblation for the LORD, what every man hath obtained of jewels of gold, chains, and bracelets, rings, ear-rings, and tablets, to make an atonement for our souls before the LORD.
51 Moses ac Eleazar eis mwe naweyuk inge nukewa ma orekla ke gold.
And Moses and Eleazar the priest took the gold of them, [even] all wrought jewels.
52 Toasriyen ma inge nukewa ma mwetkol lun mwet mweun orani, alukela paun angfoko.
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 Elos su tia oaoa in mwet kol lun mwet mweun elos sruokya na ma wap lalos uh.
([For] the men of war had taken spoil, every man for himself.)
54 Ouinge Moses ac Eleazar usla gold uh nu in Lohm Nuknuk Mutal, tuh LEUM GOD Elan loango mwet Israel.
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.
