Lakkoobsa 31
1 Waaqayyo Museedhaan akkana jedhe;
And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
2 “Saba Israaʼeliif jedhiitii warra Midiyaan irratti haaloo baʼi. Ergasii ati gara saba keetiitti walitti qabamta.”
Revenge first the children of Israel on the Madianites, and so thou shalt be gathered to thy people.
3 Kana irratti Museen saba sanaan akkana jedhe; “Akka isaan warra Midiyaanitti duulanii haaloo Waaqayyoo isaan irratti baʼaniif namoota keessan keessaa muraasa hidhachiisaa.
And Moses forthwith said: Arm of you men to fight, who may take the revenge of the Lord on the Madianites.
4 Tokkoo tokkoo gosa Israaʼel keessaa nama kuma tokko tokkoo duulatti ergaa.”
Let a thousand men be chosen out of every tribe of Israel to be sent to the war.
5 Akkasitti tokkoo tokkoo gosa Israaʼel keessaa namoonni kumni tokko tokko walitti buufamanii namni kumni kudha lama lolaaf hidhate.
And they gave a thousand of every tribe, that is to say, twelve thousand men well appointed for battle.
6 Museenis tokkoo tokkoo gosaa keessaa nama kuma tokko tokko Fiinehaas ilma Eleʼaazaar lubichaa isa miʼa iddoo qulqulluutii fi malakata afuufamu harkatti qabate sana wajjin gara waraanaatti erge.
And Moses sent them with Phinees the son of Eleazar the priest, and he delivered to him the holy vessels, and the trumpets to sound.
7 Isaanis akkuma Waaqayyo Musee ajaje sanatti warra Midiyaan lolanii dhiira hunda ajjeesan.
And when they had fought against the Madianites and had overcome them, they slew all the men.
8 Mootonni Midiyaan shanan jechuunis Eewii, Reqem, Zuuri, Huurii fi Rebaanis warra ajjeefaman keessa turan. Akkasumas Balaʼaam ilma Beʼoor goraadeedhaan ajjeesan.
And their kings Evi, and Recem, and Sur, and Hur, and Rebe, five princes of the nation: Balaam also the son of Beer they killed with the sword.
9 Israaʼeloonni dubartootaa fi ijoollee warra Midiyaan boojiʼan; loon, bushaayee fi qabeenya isaanii hundas ni saaman.
And they took their women, and their children captives, and all their cattle, and all their goods: and all their possessions they plundered:
10 Magaalaawwan Midiyaanonni keessa jiraatan hundaa fi qubatawwan isaanii hunda ibiddaan guban.
And all their cities, and their villages, and castles, they burned.
11 Isaanis waan boojiʼanii fi waan saaman hunda namaa fi horii illee fuudhanii
And they carried away the booty, and all that they had taken both of men and of beasts.
12 warra boojiʼan, waan qabatanii fi waan saaman gara iddoo qubata isaanii kan fuula Yerikoo dura, Yordaanos cina, dirreewwan Moʼaab keessa jiruutti gara Museetti, gara Eleʼaazaar lubichaatii fi gara waldaa Israaʼelitti fidan.
And they brought them to Moses, and Eleazar the priest, and to all the multitude of the children of Israel. But the rest of the things for use they carried to the camp on the plains of Moab, beside the Jordan over against Jericho.
13 Museen, Eleʼaazaar lubichii fi hooggantoonni waldaa hundi qubataan alatti isaan simachuuf gad baʼan.
And Moses and Eleazar the priest and all the princes of the synagogue went forth to meet them without the camp.
14 Museenis ajajjuuwwan loltootaa jechuunis ajajjuuwwan kumaatii fi ajajjuuwwan dhibbaa kanneen lolaa galanitti aare.
And Moses being angry with the chief officers of the army, the tribunes, and the centurions that were come from the battle,
15 Innis akkana jedhee isaan gaafate; “Isin maaliif dubartoota hunda hambiftan?
Said: Why have you saved the women?
16 Kunoo warri waan Pheʼooritti taʼe sana keessatti gorsa Balaʼaam fudhachuudhaan akka dhaʼichi saba Waaqayyoo irra buʼuuf Israaʼeloota Waaqayyo irraa deebisan isaan turan.
Are not these they, that deceived the children of Israel by the counsel of Balaam, and made you transgress against the Lord by the sin of Phogor, for which also the people was punished?
17 Ammas ilmaan dhiiraa hunda fixaa; akkasumas dubartii dhiira wajjin ciifte hunda ajjeesaa.
Therefore kill all that are of the male sex, even of the children: and put to death the women, that have carnally known men.
18 Garuu dubara takkumaa dhiira wajjin hin ciisin ofii keessaniif hambifadhaa.
But the girls, and all the women that are virgins save for yourselves:
19 “Isin keessaa namni nama ajjeese kam iyyuu yookaan namni nama ajjeefame tuqe kam iyyuu bultii torba qubataan ala haa turu. Bultii sadaffaa fi bultii torbaffaattis ofii keessanii fi boojuu keessan qulqulleessaa.
And stay without the camp seven days. He that hath killed a man, or touched one that is killed, shall be purified the third day and the seventh day.
20 Uffata hunda akkasumas waan gogaa irraa, rifeensa reʼee irraa yookaan muka irraa hojjetame hunda qulqulleessaa.”
And of all the spoil, every garment, or vessel, or any thing made for use, of the skins, or hair of goats, or of wood, shall be purified.
21 Ergasiis Eleʼaazaar lubichi loltoota duula dhaqanii turan sanaan akkana jedhe; “Qajeelfamni seeraa kan Waaqayyo Museef kenne kanaa dha:
Eleazar also the priest spoke to the men of the army, that had fought, in this manner: This is the ordinance of the law, which the Lord hath commanded Moses:
22 Warqee, meetii, naasii, sibiila, qorqorroo, dilaalii fi
Gold, and silver, and brass, and iron, and lend, and tin,
23 wanni ibidda irraa hafuu dandaʼu kam iyyuu ibidda keessa dabarfamee qulqullaaʼuu qaba. Garuu wanni sun bishaan qulqullaaʼummaatiinis qulqulleeffamuu qaba. Wanni ibidda irra hafuu hin dandeenye kam iyyuu bishaan sanaan qulqulleeffama.
And all that may pass through the fire, shall be purified by fire, but whatsoever cannot abide the fire, shall be sanctified with the water of expiation:
24 Guyyaa torbaffaatti uffata keessan miiccadhaa; isinis ni qulqulleeffamtu. Ergasii qubatatti galuu dandeessu.”
And you shall wash your garments the seventh day, and being purified, you shall afterwards enter into the camp.
25 Waaqayyo Museedhaan akkana jedhe;
And the Lord said to Moses:
26 “Ati, Eleʼaazaar lubichii fi abbootiin maatii waldaa sanaa namootaa fi horii boojiʼaman lakkaaʼaa.
Take the sum of the things that were taken both of man and beast, thou and Eleazar the priest and the princes of the multitude:
27 Boojuu sanas loltoota duula dhaqanii turanii fi waldaa hunda gidduutti iddoo lamatti qoodi.
And thou shalt divide the spoil equally, between them that fought and went out to the war, and between the rest of the multitude.
28 Loltoota duulan irraa namas taʼu loon, harroota, hoolota yookaan reʼoota dhibba shan keessaa tokko Waaqayyoof gibira fuudhi.
And thou shalt separate a portion to the Lord from them that fought and were in the battle, one soul of five hundred as well of persons as of oxen and asses and sheep.
29 Gibira sanas walakkaa qooda isaanii irraa fuudhii qooda Waaqayyoo godhiitii Eleʼaazaar lubichatti kenni.
And thou shalt give it to Eleazar the priest, because they are the firstfruits of the Lord.
30 Walakkaa qooda saba Israaʼel irraa immoo namas taʼu loon, harroota, hoolota, reʼoota yookaan horii biraa shantama keessaa tokko fuudhiitii Lewwota warra itti gaafatamtoota dunkaana Waaqayyoo taʼanitti kenni.”
Out of the moiety also of the children of Israel thou shalt take the fiftieth head of persons, and of oxen, and asses, and sheep, and of all beasts, and thou shalt give them to the Levites that watch in the charge of the tabernacle of the Lord.
31 Musee fi Eleʼaazaar lubichi akkuma Waaqayyo Musee ajaje sana godhan.
And Moses and Eleazar did as the Lord had commanded.
32 Wanti boojuu loltoonni fudhatan irraa hafe hoolota 675,000,
And the spoil which the army had taken, was six hundred seventy-five thousand sheep,
33 loon 72,000,
Seventy-two thousand oxen,
34 harroota 61,000,
Sixty-one thousand asses:
35 dubartoonni takkumaa dhiira wajjin hin ciisin 32,000 turan.
And thirty-two thousand persons of the female sex, that had not known men.
36 Qoodni walakkaa kan warra duulaniif qoodame: Hoolota 337,500
And one half was given to them that had been in the battle, to wit, three hundred thirty-seven thousand five hundred sheep:
37 keessaa gibirri Waaqayyoo 675 ture;
Out of which, for the portion of the Lord, were reckoned six hundred seventy-five sheep.
38 loon 36,000 keessaa gibirri Waaqayyoo 72 ture;
And out of the thirty-six thousand oxen, seventy-two oxen:
39 harroota 30,500 keessaa gibirri Waaqayyoo 61 ture;
Out of the thirty thousand five hundred asses, sixty-one asses:
40 nama 16,000 keessaa gibirri Waaqayyoo 32 ture.
Out of the sixteen thousand persons, there fell to the portion of the Lord, thirty-two souls.
41 Museen akkuma Waaqayyo isa ajaje sanatti gibira sana qooda Waaqayyoo godhee Eleʼaazaar lubichatti kenne.
And Moses delivered the number of the firstfruits of the Lord to Eleazar the priest, as had been commanded him,
42 Qooda walakkaa kan Museen warra duulan irraa Israaʼelootaaf qoode:
Out of the half of the children of Israel, which he had separated for them that had been in the battle.
43 Walakkaan boojuu kan waldaa sanaa hoolota 337,500,
But out of the half that fell to the rest of the multitude, that is to say, out of the three hundred thirty-seven thousand five hundred sheep,
44 loon 36,000,
And out of the thirty-six thousand oxen,
45 harroota 30,500,
And out of the thirty thousand five hundred asses,
46 nama 16,000 ture.
And out of the sixteen thousand persons,
47 Museen akkuma Waaqayyo isa ajaje sanatti walakkaa saba Israaʼel irraa namaa fi horii shantama keessaa tokko fuudhee Lewwota warra itti gaafatamtoota dunkaana Waaqayyoo taʼanitti kenne.
Moses took the fiftieth head, and gave it to the Levites that watched in the tabernacle of the Lord, as the Lord had commanded.
48 Ergasiis ajajjuuwwan loltoota kumaatama irratti aangoo qaban jechuunis ajajjuuwwan kumaatii fi ajajjuuwwan dhibbaa gara Musee dhaqanii
And when the commanders of the army, and the tribunes and centurions were come to Moses, they said:
49 akkana jedhaniin; “Nu garboonni kee loltoota ajaja keenya jala jiran lakkoofneerra; namni tokko iyyuu hin hirʼanne.
We thy servants have reckoned up the number of the fighting men, whom we had under our hand, and not so much as one was wanting.
50 Kanaafuu nu waan tokkoon tokkoon keenya arganne jechuunis miʼa warqee, arboora, bitawoo, qubeelaa chaappaa, lootii fi amartii mormaa akka fuula Waaqayyoo duratti aarsaa araara nuu buusuuf kennaa Waaqayyoof dhiʼeeffamu goonee fidneerra.”
Therefore we offer as gifts to the Lord what gold every one of us could find in the booty, in garters and tablets, rings and bracelets, and chains, that thou mayst pray to the Lord for us.
51 Musee fi Eleʼaazaar lubichis warqee fi faayawwan harkaan tolfaman hunda isaan harkaa fuudhan.
And Moses and Eleazar the priest received all the gold in divers kinds,
52 Warqeen ajajjuuwwan kumaatii fi ajajjuuwwan dhibbaa kennan kanneen Musee fi Eleʼaazaar akka kennaatti Waaqayyoof dhiʼeessan hundi saqilii 16,750 ulfaatu ture.
In weight sixteen thousand seven hundred and fifty sicles, from the tribunes and from the centurions.
53 Tokkoon tokkoon loltootaa ofii isaaniitiif boojuu fudhatanii turan.
For that which every one had taken in the booty was his own.
54 Musee fi Eleʼaazaar lubichis warqee sana ajajjuuwwan kumaatii fi ajajjuuwwan dhibbaa harkaa fuudhanii akka Israaʼeloonni fuula Waaqayyoo duratti ittiin yaadatamaniif dunkaana wal gaʼiitti ol galchan.
And that which was received they brought into the tabernacle of the testimony, for a memorial of the children of Israel before the Lord.
