Mitango 25
1 Wana bana ya Isalaele bavandaki nanu na Shitimi, bamipesaki na kindumba na bilenge basi ya Moabi.
Nowe whiles Israel abode in Shittim, the people began to commit whoredome with the daughters of Moab:
2 Mpe, bilenge basi yango bazalaki kobenga bango na milulu ya mbeka oyo babonzelaka banzambe na bango. Mpe bana ya Isalaele bazalaki kolia mpe kogumbamela banzambe yango.
Which called the people vnto the sacrifice of their gods, and the people ate, and bowed downe to their gods.
3 Bongo, bana ya Isalaele bamipesaki na kosambela Bala ya Peori mpe, kanda ya Yawe epelaki makasi mpo na bango.
And Israel coupled himselfe vnto Baal Peor: wherefore the wrath of the Lord was kindled against Israel:
4 Yawe alobaki na Moyize: « Kanga bakambi nyonso ya Isalaele mpe diembika bango liboso na Ngai, na se ya moyi, mpo ete kanda makasi na Yawe elongwa likolo ya Isalaele. »
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 Moyize alobaki na bakambi ya Isalaele: « Tika ete moko na moko kati na bino aboma bato na ye oyo bamipesi na kosambela nzambe Bala ya Peori. »
Then Moses sayd vnto the Iudges of Israel, Euery one slay his men that were ioyned vnto Baal Peor.
6 Bongo moto moko ya Isalaele amemaki na libota na ye mwasi moko ya ekolo ya Madiani liboso ya Moyize mpe ya lisanga mobimba ya bana ya Isalaele, wana bazalaki kolela na ekotelo ya Ndako ya kapo ya Bokutani.
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 Tango Pineasi, mwana mobali ya Eleazari, mwana mobali ya Nganga-Nzambe Aron amonaki bongo, abimaki kati na lisanga mpe akamataki mopanga;
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 alandaki moto ya Isalaele wana kino kati na ndako na ye ya kapo mpe atobolaki bango mibale mabumu mpe bakufaki, ezala moto ya Isalaele wana mpe mwasi wana. Mpe etumbu oyo ezalaki likolo ya Isalaele esilaki.
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 Bato oyo bakufaki na etumbu wana bazalaki, bato nkoto tuku mibale na minei.
And there died in that plague, foure and twentie thousand.
10 Yawe alobaki na Moyize:
Then the Lord spake vnto Moses, saying,
11 « Nganga-Nzambe Pineasi, mwana mobali ya Eleazari, mwana mobali ya Aron, asili kolongola kanda na Ngai likolo ya bana ya Isalaele, pamba te atalisi bolingo oyo eleka ndelo mpo na lokumu na Ngai kati na bango; yango wana, na kanda na Ngai ya makasi, nasilisaki koboma bana ya Isalaele te.
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 Na boye, yebisa ye ete nasili kosala boyokani ya kimia elongo na ye.
Wherefore say to him, Beholde, I giue vnto him my couenant of peace,
13 Boyokani yango ekozala mpo na ye mpe mpo na bakitani na ye, mpo ete basala mosala na Ngai ya Bonganga-Nzambe mpo na libela, pamba te atalisi bolingo oyo eleka ndelo mpo na lokumu ya Nzambe na ye, mpe asali mosala ya bolimbisi masumu mpo na bana ya Isalaele. »
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 Kombo ya moto ya Isalaele oyo babomaki elongo na mwasi ya Madiani ezalaki Zimiri, mwana mobali ya Salu, mokambi ya libota ya Simeoni;
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 mpe oyo ya mwasi ya Madiani ezalaki Kozibi, mwana mwasi ya Tsuri, mokambi ya libota moko ya ekolo ya Madiani.
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 Yawe alobaki na Moyize:
Againe ye Lord spake vnto Moses, saying,
17 « Kamata bato ya Madiani lokola banguna mpe boma bango,
Vexe the Midianites, and smite them:
18 pamba te bakamataki bino lokola banguna mpe basalelaki mayele mabe mpo na kokweyisa bino, na likambo ya Peori mpe ya ndeko na bango ya mwasi, Kozibi, mwana mwasi ya moko kati na bakambi ya Madiani, oyo babomaki na tango ya etumbu kati na likambo ya Peori. »
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.
