Nomery 31
1 Hoe ty nitsara’ Iehovà amy Mosè,
And the LORD spoke unto Moses, saying:
2 Ampamaleo fate amo nte-Midianeo o ana’ Israeleo. Ie heneke izay le hatontoñe am’ondati’oo irehe.
'Avenge the children of Israel of the Midianites; afterward shalt thou be gathered unto thy people.'
3 Aa le nisaontsy am’ ondatio t’i Mosè nanao ty hoe: Ampidiaño ty ila’e ama’ areo hialy, vaho iraho haname o nte-Midianeo hamale i Midiane ty am’ Iehovà.
And Moses spoke unto the people, saying: 'Arm ye men from among you for the war, that they may go against Midian, to execute the LORD'S vengeance on Midian.
4 Songa hañitrik’ arivo mb’amy aliy mb’eo ze fifokoa’ Israele.
Of every tribe a thousand, throughout all the tribes of Israel, shall ye send to the war.'
5 Aa le hene nanolotse arivo boak’ amy lahiale’ Israeley o fifokoañeo, rai-ale-tsi-ro’arivo reke-pialiañe.
So there were delivered, out of the thousands of Israel, a thousand of every tribe, twelve thousand armed for war.
6 Le nampionjone’ i Mosè mb’ añ’aly mb’eo kiarivo-kiarivo’ o fifokoañeo; le nampindreze’e am’ iereo t’i Pinekàse ana’ i Elazàre ninday o fanake miavakeo naho o antsiva fikoihañeo am-pità’e.
And Moses sent them, a thousand of every tribe, to the war, them and Phinehas the son of Eleazar the priest, to the war, with the holy vessels and the trumpets for the alarm in his hand.
7 Tiname’ iareo t’i Midiane ami’ty nandilia’ Iehovà i Mosè vaho vinono ze hene atao lahilahy.
And they warred against Midian, as the LORD commanded Moses; and they slew every male.
8 Fonga naharo vono am’ iereo o mpanjaka’ i Midianeo: i Evý, naho i Rèkeme naho i Tsore naho i Kòre vaho i Rèba; i mpanjaka’ i Midiane lime rey vaho vinono am-pibara ka t’i Balame ana’i Beore.
And they slew the kings of Midian with the rest of their slain: Evi, and Rekem, and Zur, and Hur, and Reba, the five kings of Midian; Balaam also the son of Beor they slew with the sword.
9 Le kinopa’ o ana’ Israeleo ze hene rakemba naho o keleia’ o nte-Midianeoo, naho hene kinopa’ iareo o añombeo naho o mpirai-lia’eo naho o vara’eo;
And the children of Israel took captive the women of Midian and their little ones; and all their cattle, and all their flocks, and all their goods, they took for a prey.
10 fonga finorototo añ’ afo o rova nimoneña’ iareoo naho ze hene tobe’ iareo,
And all their cities in the places wherein they dwelt, and all their encampments, they burnt with fire.
11 le rinambe’ iareo ze dinohitse iaby naho ze fonga kinopake: ondaty naho hare.
And they took all the spoil, and all the prey, both of man and of beast.
12 Nendese’ iareo mb’ amy Mosè naho i Elazare mpisoroñe naho i valobohò’ Israeley mb’eo ondaty iabio naho o varao vaho ze raha kinopake mb’ an-tobe a montombei’ i Moabe aolo’ Iardeney tandrife Ieriko mb’eo.
And they brought the captives, and the prey, and the spoil, unto Moses, and unto Eleazar the priest, and unto the congregation of the children of Israel, unto the camp, unto the plains of Moab, which are by the Jordan at Jericho.
13 Niavotse amy zao t’i Mosè naho i Elazare mpisoroñe naho o talè’ i valobohòkeio hifanalaka am’ iereo alafe’ i tobey.
And Moses, and Eleazar the priest, and all the princes of the congregation, went forth to meet them without the camp.
14 Fe niviñera’ i Mosè o mpiaolo’ o lahindefoñeoo, naho i mpifelek’ arivo rey, naho i mpifehe ki-zato rey, o niboak’ amy hotakotakeio.
And Moses was wroth with the officers of the host, the captains of thousands and the captains of hundreds, who came from the service of the war.
15 Le hoe t’i Mosè am’ iereo: Hene nenga’ areo ho veloñe hao o ampelao?
And Moses said unto them: 'Have ye saved all the women alive?
16 Inao, ie ty nampiola o ana’ Israeleo amy Iehovà ie nikililie’ i Balame amy raha e Peorey, vaho nametsahañe angorosy ty valobohò’ Iehovà.
Behold, these caused the children of Israel, through the counsel of Balaam, to revolt so as to break faith with the LORD in the matter of Peor, and so the plague was among the congregation of the LORD.
17 Aa le fonga vonò ze lahilahy amo keleia’eo naho ze ampela fa niolots’ ama’ ondaty.
Now therefore kill every male among the little ones, and kill every woman that hath known man by lying with him.
18 Fe tano ho anahareo ze ampela mbe tsy niharo sarimbo ama’ ondaty.
But all the women children, that have not known man by lying with him, keep alive for yourselves.
19 Le ie namono ondaty ndra nitsapa ty vinono ro mitoboha alafe’ i tobey fito andro; miefera vatañe ami’ty andro faha-telo naho ami’ ty andro faha-fito; inahareo naho o finao’ areoo.
And encamp ye without the camp seven days; whosoever hath killed any person, and whosoever hath touched any slain, purify yourselves on the third day and on the seventh day, ye and your captives.
20 Le liovo iaby ze sikiñe naho ze nanoeñe an’ angozy naho ze rinare am-bolon’ ose vaho ze raha an-katae.
And as to every garment, and all that is made of skin, and all work of goats' hair, and all things made of wood, ye shall purify.'
21 Le hoe t’i Elazare mpisoroñe amo lahin-defo niatreke i aliio: Zao ty fañèmpètse linili’ Iehovà i Mosè:
And Eleazar the priest said unto the men of war that went to the battle: 'This is the statute of the law which the LORD hath commanded Moses:
22 ze volamena naho volafoty naho torisìke naho viñe naho endraendra vaho firake—
Howbeit the gold, and the silver, the brass, the iron, the tin, and the lead,
23 ze raha mete asitrik’ añ’afo avao—ro hampisorohe’ areo añ’afo, le halio, f’ie mbe heferañe an-dranom-pañeferañe. Le ze raha tsy mahaleo afo ro hampisoroheñe rano.
every thing that may abide the fire, ye shall make to go through the fire, and it shall be clean; nevertheless it shall be purified with the water of sprinkling; and all that abideth not the fire ye shall make to go through the water.
24 Le ho sasà’ areo ami’ ty andro faha-fito ty siki’ areo vaho halio, ie heneke izay le mahazo mizilik’ an-tobe ao.
And ye shall wash your clothes on the seventh day, and ye shall be clean, and afterward ye may come into the camp.'
25 Le hoe ty nitsara’ Iehovà amy Mosè:
And the LORD spoke unto Moses, saying:
26 Volilio, ihe naho i Elazare mpisoroñe naho o talèn-droae’eo ze fonga raha kinopake: ondaty naho hare.
'Take the sum of the prey that was taken, both of man and of beast, thou, and Eleazar the priest, and the heads of the fathers' houses of the congregation;
27 Zarao roe o kinopakeo: ty raike ho amo nañavelo niatrek’ i aliio le ty raike ho amy valobohòkey.
and divide the prey into two parts: between the men skilled in war, that went out to battle, and all the congregation;
28 Le ampandivao o lahindefoñe niatre-kotakotakeo ty raik’ ami’ ty liman-jato ho enga am’ Iehovà, ke t’ie ondaty, he te añombe, ke borìke he añondry, hera ose.
and levy a tribute unto the LORD of the men of war that went out to battle: one soul of five hundred, both of the persons, and of the beeves, and of the asses, and of the flocks;
29 Rambeso ami’ty vaki’ iareo, vaho atoloro amy Elazare mpisoroñe ho engan-kavoañe am’ Iehovà.
take it of their half, and give it unto Eleazar the priest, as a portion set apart for the LORD.
30 Le ampandivao ami’ty anjara’ o ana’ Israeleo ka ty raik’ ami’ty limampolo’ ze ondaty naho añombe naho borìke naho añondry naho ze hare iaby vaho atoloro amo nte-Levy mpiatrake i kivoho’ Iehovàio.
And of the children of Israel's half, thou shalt take one drawn out of every fifty, of the persons, of the beeves, of the asses, and of the flocks, even of all the cattle, and give them unto the Levites, that keep the charge of the tabernacle of the LORD.'
31 Le nanoe’ i Mosè naho i Elazare mpisoroñe i nandilia’ Iehovà i Mosey.
And Moses and Eleazar the priest did as the LORD commanded Moses.
32 Ty vara nisisa amy nikopahe’ o lahindefoñeoy le añondry enen-ketse-tsi-fito-ale-tsi-lime-arivo,
Now the prey, over and above the booty which the men of war took, was six hundred thousand and seventy thousand and five thousand sheep,
33 naho añombe fito-ale-tsi-ro’arivo,
and threescore and twelve thousand beeves,
34 naho borìke eneñ’ ale-tsi-arivo,
and threescore and one thousand asses,
35 naho ondaty telo-ale-tsi-ro’ arivo: hene somondrara mboe tsy niolots’ ama’ ondaty.
and thirty and two thousand persons in all, of the women that had not known man by lying with him.
36 Ty vaki’e raike, ty anjara’ o niatre-kotakotakeo, le añondry naho ose telo-hetse-tsi-telo-ale-tsi-fito-arivo-tsi-liman-jato,
And the half, which was the portion of them that went out to war, was in number three hundred thousand and thirty thousand and seven thousand and five hundred sheep.
37 le o añondry naho ose nengaeñe am’Iehovào enenjato tsy-fitompolo-lim’ amby.
And the LORD'S tribute of the sheep was six hundred and threescore and fifteen.
38 Le telo-ale-tsi-eneñ’ arivo ty añombe, aa le fitom-polo-ro’ amby ty nengaeñe am’Iehovà;
And the beeves were thirty and six thousand, of which the LORD'S tribute was threescore and twelve.
39 telo-ale-tsi-liman-jato ty borìke vaho enempolo-raik’ amby ty nengaeñe am’ Iehovà;
And the asses were thirty thousand and five hundred, of which the LORD'S tribute was threescore and one.
40 rai-ale-tsi-eneñ’ arivo ty ia’ondatio vaho telopolo-ro’amby ty nengaeñe am’ Iehovà.
And the persons were sixteen thousand, of whom the LORD'S tribute was thirty and two persons.
41 Aa le natolo’ i Mosè amy Elazare mpisoroñe ty anjara’ Iehovà, ami’ty nandilia’ Iehovà i Mosè.
And Moses gave the tribute, which was set apart for the LORD, unto Eleazar the priest, as the LORD commanded Moses.
42 Aa naho ty vaki’ i valobohòke navi’ i Mosè ami’ty anjara’ o lahindefoñeoy;
And of the children of Israel's half, which Moses divided off from the men that warred —
43 ty vaki’ i valobohòkey telo-hetse-tsi-telo-ale-tsi-fito-arivo-tsi-liman-jato añondry naho ose,
now the congregation's half was three hundred thousand and thirty thousand and seven thousand and five hundred sheep,
44 le telo-ale-tsi-eneñ’arivo ty añombe,
and thirty and six thousand beeves,
45 naho telo-ale-tsi-liman-jato ty borìke,
and thirty thousand and five hundred asses,
46 vaho rai-ale-tsi-eneñ’ arivo ty ia’ondatio.
and sixteen thousand persons —
47 Amy vaki’ o ana’ Israeleo, le nangala’ i Mosè raik’ ami’ty limampolo, ondaty naho hare, le natolo’e amo nte-Levio—o mpiatrake i kivoho’ Iehovào amy nandilia’ Iehovà i Mosèy.
even of the children of Israel's half, Moses took one drawn out of every fifty, both of man and of beast, and gave them unto the Levites, that kept the charge of the tabernacle of the LORD; as the LORD commanded Moses.
48 Niheo amy Mosè mb’eo amy zao o mpiaolo nifehe o arivo nialio, toe o mpifelek’ arivoo naho o mpifehe zatoo;
And the officers that were over the thousands of the host, the captains of thousands, and the captains of hundreds, came near unto Moses;
49 le nanao ty hoe amy Mosè: Fa niahe’ o mpitoro’oo o lahindefo nifelehe’aio, leo raike tsy nipoke.
and they said unto Moses: 'Thy servants have taken the sum of the men of war that are under our charge, and there lacketh not one man of us.
50 Aa le mañenga ravoravo am’ Iehovà zahay, ze niazo’ ondatio ke ravake volamena ke vangovango ke tsiandetse ke bange fitomboke ke kiviro he ètse, ho fijebañañe añatrefa’ Iehovà.
And we have brought the LORD'S offering, what every man hath gotten, of jewels of gold, armlets, and bracelets, signet-rings, ear-rings, and girdles, to make atonement for our souls before the LORD.'
51 Rinambe’ i Mosè naho i Elazare mpisoroñe am’ iereo o volamenao naho o bangeo vaho ze hene bijo,
And Moses and Eleazar the priest took the gold of them, even all wrought jewels.
52 le ty tontom-bolamena nengae’ iareo ho am’ Iehovà, boak’ amo mpifelek’ arivoo vaho o mpifehe zatoo: rai-ale-tsi-eneñ’ arivo-tsi-fitonjato-tsi-limampolo sekele,
And all the gold of the gift that they set apart for the LORD, of the captains of thousands, and of the captains of hundreds, was sixteen thousand seven hundred and fifty shekels. —
53 amy te songa nikopake ho am-bata’e o lahindefoñeo.
For the men of war had taken booty, every man for himself. —
54 Aa le rinambe’ i Mosè naho i Elazare mpisoroñe amo mpifelek’ arivo naho zatoo i volamenay, vaho nendese’ iereo am-po’ i kibohom-pamantañañey ho fitiahiañe o ana’ Israeleo añatrefa’ Iehovà.
And Moses and Eleazar the priest took the gold of the captains of thousands and of hundreds, and brought it into the tent of meeting, for a memorial for the children of Israel before the LORD.
