Nomery 25
1 Ary nitoetra tao Sitima ny Isiraely, dia niantomboka nijangajanga tamin’ ny zanakavavin’ ny Moabita izy.
Now Israel stayed in Shittim; and the people defiled themselves by having sexual relations with the women of Moab,
2 Fa ireo nanasa ny olona hihinana tamin’ ny zavatra novonoiny ho fanatitra ho an’ ny andriamaniny, ka nihinana ny olona sady niankohoka tamin’ ny andriamaniny.
and they called the people to the sacrifices of their gods; and the people ate, and bowed down to their gods.
3 Dia niray tamin’ i Bala-peora ny Isiraely, ka nirehitra taminy ny fahatezeran’ i Jehovah.
Israel joined himself to Baal Peor: and the anger of YHWH was kindled against Israel.
4 Dia hoy Jehovah tamin’ i Mosesy: Alao ny loholona rehetra, ary ahantòny tandrifin’ ny masoandro eo anatrehan’ i Jehovah ireo nijangajanga ireo, mba hitsaharan’ ny firehetan’ ny fahatezeran’ i Jehovah amin’ ny Isiraely.
YHWH said to Moses, "Take all the chiefs of the people, and hang them up to YHWH before the sun, that the fierce anger of YHWH may turn away from Israel."
5 Dia hoy Mosesy tamin’ ny mpitsara ny Isiraely: Samia ianareo mamono ny olom-peheziny, izay niray tamin’ i Bala-peora.
Moses said to the judges of Israel, "Everyone kill his men who have joined themselves to Baal Peor."
6 Ary, indro, avy ny anankiray tamin’ ny Zanak’ Isiraely nitondra vehivavy Midianita teo amin’ ny rahalahiny, teo imason’ i Mosesy sy ny fiangonana, dia ny Zanak’ Isiraely rehetra, izay nitomany teo amin’ ny varavaran’ ny trano-lay fihaonana.
Look, one of the children of Israel came and brought to his brothers a Midianite woman in the sight of Moses, and in the sight of all the congregation of the children of Israel, while they were weeping at the door of the Tent of Meeting.
7 Ary raha nahita izany Finehasa, zanak’ i Eleazara, zanak’ i Arona mpisorona, dia nitsangana niala teo amin’ ny fiangonana izy ka nitondra lefona teny an-tànany;
When Phinehas, the son of Eleazar, the son of Aaron the priest, saw it, he rose up from the midst of the congregation, and took a spear in his hand;
8 dia nandeha nanaraka ilay lehilahy Isiraelita tao an-day izy, ary nataony indray nandefona izy roroa, dia ny lehilahy Isiraelita sy ny vehivavy, ka voagorobaka hatrany amin’ ny kibon-dravehivavy. Dia natsahatra ny areti-mandringana teo amin’ ny Zanak’ Isiraely.
and he went after the man of Israel into the pavilion, and thrust both of them through, the man of Israel, and the woman through her body. So the plague was stayed from the children of Israel.
9 Ary izay maty tamin’ ny areti-mandringana dia efatra arivo amby roa alina.
Those who died by the plague were twenty-four thousand.
10 Ary Jehovah niteny tamin’ i Mosesy ka nanao hoe:
YHWH spoke to Moses, saying,
11 Finehasa, zanak’ i Eleazara, zanak’ i Arona mpisorona, nampiala ny fahatezerako tamin’ ny Zanak’ Isiraely, raha firehitra noho ny fitiavany Ahy izy; ka dia tsy nataoko lany ringana ny Zanak’ Isiraely tamin’ ny firehetan’ ny fahatezerako.
"Phinehas, the son of Eleazar, the son of Aaron the priest, has turned my wrath away from the children of Israel, in that he was jealous with my jealousy among them, so that I did not consume the children of Israel in my jealousy.
12 Ary noho izany dia lazao hoe: Indro, omeko azy ny faneken’ ny fihavanako;
Therefore say, 'Look, I give to him my covenant of peace:
13 ary izy sy ny zanany mandimby azy no hanana izany ho faneken’ ny fisoronana mandrakizay, satria nirehitra noho ny fitiavany an’ Andriamaniny izy ka nanao fanavotana ho an’ ny Zanak’ Isiraely.
and it shall be to him, and to his descendants after him, the covenant of an everlasting priesthood; because he was jealous for his God, and made atonement for the children of Israel.'"
14 Ary ny anaran’ ilay lehilahy Isiraelita novonoina, izay niaraka novonoina tamin-dravehivavy Midianita, dia Zimry, zanak i Salo, lohan’ ny fianakaviana tamin’ ny Simeonita.
Now the name of the man of Israel that was slain, who was slain with the Midianite woman, was Zimri, the son of Salu, a prince of a fathers' house among the Simeonites.
15 Ary ny anaran’ ny vehivavy Midianita izay novonoina dia Kosby, zanak’ i Zora, lohan’ ny fianakaviana tamin’ ny Midianita.
The name of the Midianite woman who was slain was Cozbi, the daughter of Zur; he was head of the people of a fathers' house in Midian.
16 Ary Jehovah niteny tamin’ i Mosesy ka nanao hoe:
And YHWH spoke to Moses, saying, "Speak to the children of Israel, saying,
17 Rafeso ny Midianita, ka iadio;
'Harass the Midianites, and strike them;
18 fa izy nandrafy anareo tamin’ ny fanangoleny, izay nanangoleny anareo tamin’ ny an’ i Peora sy Kosby anabaviny, zanakavavin’ ny andriandahy Midianita anankiray, izay novonoina tamin’ ny andron’ ny areti-mandringana noho ny an’ i Peora.
for they harassed you with their tricks, with which they have deceived you in the matter of Peor, and in the matter of Cozbi, the daughter of the prince of Midian, their sister, who was slain on the day of the plague in the matter of Peor.'"
