Nomery 31
1 Hoe ty nitsara’ Iehovà amy Mosè,
And Yhwh spake 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 spake unto the people, saying, Arm some of yourselves unto the war, and let them go against the Midianites, and avenge Yhwh of 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 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 Tiname’ iareo t’i Midiane ami’ty nandilia’ Iehovà i Mosè vaho vinono ze hene atao lahilahy.
And they warred against the Midianites, as Yhwh commanded Moses; and they slew all the males.
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, beside 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 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 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 fonga finorototo añ’ afo o rova nimoneña’ iareoo naho ze hene tobe’ iareo,
And they burnt all their cities wherein they dwelt, and all their goodly castles, 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 men and of beasts.
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 Eleazar the priest, and unto the congregation of the children of Israel, unto the camp at the plains of Moab, which are by Jordan near 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 army, with the captains over thousands, and captains over hundreds, which came from the battle.
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 commit trespass against Yhwh in the matter of Peor, and there was a plague among the congregation of Yhwh.
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 a 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 do ye abide without the camp seven days: whosoever hath killed any person, and whosoever hath touched any slain, purify both yourselves and your captives on the third day, and on the seventh day.
20 Le liovo iaby ze sikiñe naho ze nanoeñe an’ angozy naho ze rinare am-bolon’ ose vaho ze raha an-katae.
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 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 which went to the battle, This is the ordinance of the law which Yhwh commanded Moses;
22 ze volamena naho volafoty naho torisìke naho viñe naho endraendra vaho firake—
Only 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 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 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 shall come into the camp.
25 Le hoe ty nitsara’ Iehovà amy Mosè:
And Yhwh spake 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 chief fathers 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 them that took the war upon them, who went out to battle, and between 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 Yhwh of the men of war which went out to battle: one soul of five hundred, both of the persons, and of the beeves, and of the donkeys, and of the sheep:
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, for an heave offering of Yhwh.
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 portion of fifty, of the persons, of the beeves, of the donkeys, and of the flocks, of all manner of beasts, and give them unto the Levites, which keep the charge of the tabernacle of Yhwh.
31 Le nanoe’ i Mosè naho i Elazare mpisoroñe i nandilia’ Iehovà i Mosey.
And Moses and Eleazar the priest did as Yhwh commanded Moses.
32 Ty vara nisisa amy nikopahe’ o lahindefoñeoy le añondry enen-ketse-tsi-fito-ale-tsi-lime-arivo,
And the booty, being the rest of the prey which the men of war had caught, 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 donkeys,
35 naho ondaty telo-ale-tsi-ro’ arivo: hene somondrara mboe tsy niolots’ ama’ ondaty.
And thirty and two thousand persons in all, of 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 seven and thirty thousand and five hundred sheep:
37 le o añondry naho ose nengaeñe am’Iehovào enenjato tsy-fitompolo-lim’ amby.
And Yhwh'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 Yhwh's tribute was threescore and twelve.
39 telo-ale-tsi-liman-jato ty borìke vaho enempolo-raik’ amby ty nengaeñe am’ Iehovà;
And the donkeys were thirty thousand and five hundred; of which Yhwh'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 which Yhwh'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 Yhwh's heave offering, unto Eleazar the priest, as Yhwh 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 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 half that pertained unto the congregation 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 donkeys and five hundred,
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 portion of fifty, both of man and of beast, and gave them unto the Levites, which kept the charge of the tabernacle of Yhwh; as Yhwh 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 which were over thousands of the army, the captains of thousands, and 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 which 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.
We have therefore brought an oblation for Yhwh, what every man hath gotten, of jewels of gold, chains, and bracelets, rings, earrings, and tablets, to make an atonement for our souls before Yhwh.
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 offering that they offered up to Yhwh, 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 spoil, 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 tabernacle of the congregation, for a memorial for the children of Israel before Yhwh.
