Lakkoobsa 25
1 Israaʼeloonni yeroo Shixiim keessa turanitti dhiironni isaanii dubartoota Moʼaab wajjin sagaagaluu jalqaban.
Nowe whiles Israel abode in Shittim, the people began to commit whoredome with the daughters of Moab:
2 Dubartoonni kunneenis gara qalma waaqota isaaniitti saba sana afeerraan, sabni sun qalma sana nyaatee waaqota sanaaf sagade.
Which called the people vnto the sacrifice of their gods, and the people ate, and bowed downe to their gods.
3 Israaʼel Baʼaal Pheʼoor duukaa buʼe. Dheekkamsi Waaqayyoos isaanitti bobaʼe.
And Israel coupled himselfe vnto Baal Peor: wherefore the wrath of the Lord was kindled against Israel:
4 Waaqayyo Museedhaan akkana jedhe; “Akka dheekkamsi Waaqayyoo jabaan sun saba Israaʼel irraa deebiʼuuf, hangafoota saba sanaa hunda fuudhiitii guyyaa adiidhaan fuula Waaqayyoo duratti isaan fannisi.”
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 Museen abbootii murtii Israaʼeliin, “Tokkoon tokkoon keessan namoota keessan kanneen Baʼaal Pheʼoor duukaa buʼan fixaa” jedhe.
Then Moses sayd vnto the Iudges of Israel, Euery one slay his men that were ioyned vnto Baal Peor.
6 Kunoo namichi Israaʼel tokko utuma isaan balbala dunkaana wal gaʼii duratti booʼaa jiranuu fuula Museetii fi fuula waldaa Israaʼel guutuu duratti dubartii Midiyaan tokko gara maatii ofii isaatti fidate.
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 Fiinehaas ilmi Eleʼaazaar ilma Aroon lubichaa waan kana arginaan waldaa sana keessaa baʼee eeboo harkatti qabatee
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 namicha Israaʼel sana duukaa buʼee dunkaana seene; namicha Israaʼelii fi dubartittiis walitti waraanee dhagna isheetti fullaase. Akkasiin dhaʼichi Israaʼelitti dhufe sun ni dhowwame.
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 Garuu baayʼinni namoota dhaʼicha sanaan dhumanii 24,000 gaʼee ture.
And there died in that plague, foure and twentie thousand.
10 Waaqayyos Museedhaan akkana jedhe;
Then the Lord spake vnto Moses, saying,
11 “Fiinehaas ilmi Eleʼaazaar ilma Aroon lubicha sanaa dheekkamsa koo Israaʼeloota irraa deebiseera; inni akka ani hinaaffaa kootiin isaan hin balleessineef, akkuma ani ulfina kootiif isaan gidduutti hinaafu sana innis hinaafeeraatii.
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 Kanaafuu kunoo akka ani kakuu koo kan nagaa isa wajjin godhadhu itti naaf himi.
Wherefore say to him, Beholde, I giue vnto him my couenant of peace,
13 Sababii inni ulfina Waaqa isaatiif hinaafee Israaʼelootaaf araara buuseef, innii fi sanyiin isaa kakuu lubummaa kan bara baraa qabaatu.”
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 Maqaan namicha Israaʼel kan dubartii Midiyaan wajjin ajjeefame sanaa Zimrii ilma Saaluu ti; innis hoogganaa maatii Simiʼoon.
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 Maqaan dubartii Midiyaan kan ajjeefamte sanaa Kozbii intala Zuuri hangafa maatii Midiyaan tokkoo ti.
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 Waaqayyo Museedhaan akkana jedhe;
Againe ye Lord spake vnto Moses, saying,
17 “Midiyaanota akka diinaatti ilaaliitii ajjeesi;
Vexe the Midianites, and smite them:
18 kunis waan isaan sababii Pheʼooriitii fi obboleettii isaanii Kozbii intala hoogganaa warra Midiyaan, dubartii guyyaa sababii Pheʼooriitiin dhaʼichi dhufe sana ajjeefamte sanaa irratti isin gowwoomsan sana akka diinaatti isin ilaalaniif.”
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.
