< Okubala 25 >
1 Isirayiri bwe yali mu Sitimu, abasajja ne batandika okwenda n’abakazi ba Mowaabu,
Bere a Israelfo no tenaa Sitim no, wɔn mu mmarima no bi fii ase ne Moab mmea no bɔɔ aguaman de guu wɔn ho fi.
2 abaabayitanga ku kuwaayo ebiweebwayo eri bakatonda baabwe. Abaana ba Isirayiri ne balya era ne bavuunamira bakatonda abo.
Saa mmea yi too nsa frɛɛ wɔn ma wɔkɔbɔɔ afɔre maa wɔn anyame. Wodii Moabfo anyame so afɔrebɔ nnuan na wɔkotow wɔn nso.
3 Bw’atyo Isirayiri n’ayingirira eby’okusinzanga Baali ow’e Peoli. Obusungu bwa Mukama ne bubabuubuukirako.
Enti Baal a ɛwɔ Peor no som bɛyɛɛ ɔhyɛ maa Israelfo. Eyi maa Awurade bo fuw ne nkurɔfo no yiye.
4 Mukama n’agamba Musa nti, “Kwata abakulembeze b’abantu bano obatte, obaanike mu maaso ga Mukama abantu bonna we babalabira, obusungu bwa Mukama bulyoke bukkakkane buve ku Isirayiri.”
Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Mose se, “Fa saa nnipa yi ntuanofo no nyinaa, kunkum wɔn na fa wɔn gu owia so wɔ Awurade anim sɛnea ɛbɛyɛ a, nʼabufuwhyew no befi Israel so.”
5 Musa n’agamba abalamuzi ba Isirayiri nti, “Buli omu ku mmwe atte abo abali mu mmwe abeegasse mu kusinza Baali ow’e Peoli.”
Enti Mose ka kyerɛɛ Israel atemmufo no no se, “Ɛsɛ sɛ mo mu biara kunkum mo nkurɔfo a wɔde wɔn ho akɔhyɛ Baal a ɛwɔ Peor no ase no nyinaa.”
6 Kale, laba, omusajja omu ku baana ba Isirayiri n’aleeta mu maka ge omukazi Omumidiyaani awo mu maaso ga Musa, nga n’ekibiina kyonna ekya Isirayiri bali awo bakaabira mu mulyango gwa Weema ey’Okukuŋŋaanirangamu.
Na Israelni bi de Midiani bea bi baa wɔn atenae hɔ maa Mose ne nnipa no nyinaa huu wɔn bere a na wogyinagyina Ahyiae Ntamadan pon no ano retwa adwo no.
7 Naye Finekaasi mutabani wa Eriyazaali, mutabani wa Alooni kabona, bwe yakiraba, n’asituka mu kibiina n’akwata effumu mu mukono gwe
Bere a Pinehas a ɔyɛ Eleasar babarima a na ɔyɛ ɔsɔfo Aaron nena huu eyi no, ofii wɔn mu, kɔfaa peaw kitae;
8 n’agoberera Omuyisirayiri n’amutuusa mu weema. Bombi n’abafumita effumu ne liyita mu Muyisirayiri ne liggukira ne mu mubiri gw’omukazi, ne libayitamu bombi. Awo kawumpuli eyali alumbye abaana ba Isirayiri n’akoma.
na odii Israelni no akyi kɔɔ ntamadan no mu. Ɔde peaw no wɔɔ ɔbarima no san de wɔɔ ɔbea no yafunu mu. Enti ɔyaredɔm a na aba Israelfo no so no to twae;
9 N’abo abaafa kawumpuli baawera emitwalo ebiri mu enkumi nnya.
nanso saa bere no, na nnipa mpem aduonu anan awuwu dedaw.
10 Mukama n’agamba Musa nti,
Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Mose se,
11 “Finekaasi mutabani wa Eriyazaali, mutabani wa Alooni kabona, ankyusisizza obusungu bwange ne mbuggya ku baana ba Isirayiri; kubanga obusungu bwe bwabuubuuka nnyo ng’obwange olw’obutafaayo ku kitiibwa kyange, kyenvudde sibazikiriza kubamalawo.
“Eleasar babarima Pinehas a ɔyɛ ɔsɔfo Aaron nena ayi mʼabufuw afi Israelfo no so. Esiane sɛ wako apere mʼanuonyam wɔ wɔn mu sɛnea mepɛ ayɛ no nti, sɛnea meyɛɛ mʼadwene sɛ mɛsɛe Israelfo no, magyae.
12 Noolwekyo mutegeeze nti, ‘Laba nkola naye endagaano ey’emirembe.
Enti ka kyerɛ no se, me ne no rebɛyɛ asomdwoe apam.
13 Ye, ne bazzukulu be bonna banaabanga mu ndagaano ey’obwakabona obw’emirembe gyonna, kubanga yasunguwalira abaana ba Isirayiri olw’okutyoboola ekitiibwa kya Katonda we, n’abatangiririra.’”
Saa apam yi mu, ɔno ne nʼasefo bɛyɛ asɔfo afebɔɔ, efisɛ watwe me ho ninkunu wɔ Israelfo mu de ayɛ mpata ama wɔn.”
14 Omusajja Omuyisirayiri eyattirwa awamu n’omukazi Omumidiyaani yali Zimuli mutabani wa Salu eyali omukulembeze mu kika kya Simyoni.
Ɔbarima a wokum no ne Midiani bea no, na ne din de Simri a na ɔyɛ Salu a otua Simeon abusuakuw ano no babarima.
15 N’erinnya ly’omukazi Omumidiyaani eyattibwa nga ye Kozebi muwala wa Zuuli, eyali omukulembeze mu kimu ku bika bya Midiyaani.
Ɔbea no nso, na ne din de Kosbi a na ɔyɛ Midianhene babarima Sur babea.
16 Mukama n’agamba Musa nti,
Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Mose se,
17 “Abamidiyaani obayigganyanga n’obatta,
“Tow hyɛ Midianfo no so sɛ atamfo na kunkum wɔn.
18 kubanga baayagala okubazikiriza n’enkwe zaabwe bwe baabakyamya e Peoli, n’olwa Kozebi muwala w’omukulembeze w’e Midiyaani, omukazi oyo eyattibwa ku lunaku okwajjira kawumpuli olw’ebyo ebyali e Peoli.”
Efisɛ wɔfaa mo sɛ atamfo, na wɔdaadaa mo ma mo som Baal a ɛwɔ Peor, ne Kosbi a ɔyɛ Midian ntuanoni babea, a wokum no wɔ Peor ɔyaredɔm da no.”
