Lakkoobsa 31
1 Waaqayyo Museedhaan akkana jedhe;
And Yhwh spake unto Moses, saying,
2 “Saba Israaʼeliif jedhiitii warra Midiyaan irratti haaloo baʼi. Ergasii ati gara saba keetiitti walitti qabamta.”
Avenge the children of Israel of the Midianites: afterward shalt thou be gathered unto 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 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 Tokkoo tokkoo gosa Israaʼel keessaa nama kuma tokko tokkoo duulatti ergaa.”
Of every tribe a thousand, throughout all the tribes of Israel, shall ye send to the war.
5 Akkasitti tokkoo tokkoo gosa Israaʼel keessaa namoonni kumni tokko tokko walitti buufamanii namni kumni kudha lama lolaaf hidhate.
So there were delivered out of the thousands of Israel, a thousand of every tribe, twelve thousand armed for war.
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 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 Isaanis akkuma Waaqayyo Musee ajaje sanatti warra Midiyaan lolanii dhiira hunda ajjeesan.
And they warred against the Midianites, as Yhwh commanded Moses; and they slew all the males.
8 Mootonni Midiyaan shanan jechuunis Eewii, Reqem, Zuuri, Huurii fi Rebaanis warra ajjeefaman keessa turan. Akkasumas Balaʼaam ilma Beʼoor goraadeedhaan ajjeesan.
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 Israaʼeloonni dubartootaa fi ijoollee warra Midiyaan boojiʼan; loon, bushaayee fi qabeenya isaanii hundas ni saaman.
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 Magaalaawwan Midiyaanonni keessa jiraatan hundaa fi qubatawwan isaanii hunda ibiddaan guban.
And they burnt all their cities wherein they dwelt, and all their goodly castles, with fire.
11 Isaanis waan boojiʼanii fi waan saaman hunda namaa fi horii illee fuudhanii
And they took all the spoil, and all the prey, 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 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 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 congregation, went forth to meet them without the camp.
14 Museenis ajajjuuwwan loltootaa jechuunis ajajjuuwwan kumaatii fi ajajjuuwwan dhibbaa kanneen lolaa galanitti aare.
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 Innis akkana jedhee isaan gaafate; “Isin maaliif dubartoota hunda hambiftan?
And Moses said unto them, Have ye saved all the women alive?
16 Kunoo warri waan Pheʼooritti taʼe sana keessatti gorsa Balaʼaam fudhachuudhaan akka dhaʼichi saba Waaqayyoo irra buʼuuf Israaʼeloota Waaqayyo irraa deebisan isaan turan.
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 Ammas ilmaan dhiiraa hunda fixaa; akkasumas dubartii dhiira wajjin ciifte hunda ajjeesaa.
Now therefore kill every male among the little ones, and kill every woman that hath known man by lying with him.
18 Garuu dubara takkumaa dhiira wajjin hin ciisin ofii keessaniif hambifadhaa.
But all the women children, that have not known a man by lying with him, keep alive 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 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 Uffata hunda akkasumas waan gogaa irraa, rifeensa reʼee irraa yookaan muka irraa hojjetame hunda qulqulleessaa.”
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 Ergasiis Eleʼaazaar lubichi loltoota duula dhaqanii turan sanaan akkana jedhe; “Qajeelfamni seeraa kan Waaqayyo Museef kenne kanaa dha:
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 Warqee, meetii, naasii, sibiila, qorqorroo, dilaalii fi
Only the gold, and the silver, the brass, the iron, the tin, and the lead,
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.
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 Guyyaa torbaffaatti uffata keessan miiccadhaa; isinis ni qulqulleeffamtu. Ergasii qubatatti galuu dandeessu.”
And ye shall wash your clothes on the seventh day, and ye shall be clean, and afterward ye shall come into the camp.
25 Waaqayyo Museedhaan akkana jedhe;
And Yhwh spake unto Moses, saying,
26 “Ati, Eleʼaazaar lubichii fi abbootiin maatii waldaa sanaa namootaa fi horii boojiʼaman lakkaaʼaa.
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 Boojuu sanas loltoota duula dhaqanii turanii fi waldaa hunda gidduutti iddoo lamatti qoodi.
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 Loltoota duulan irraa namas taʼu loon, harroota, hoolota yookaan reʼoota dhibba shan keessaa tokko Waaqayyoof gibira fuudhi.
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 Gibira sanas walakkaa qooda isaanii irraa fuudhii qooda Waaqayyoo godhiitii Eleʼaazaar lubichatti kenni.
Take it of their half, and give it unto Eleazar the priest, for an heave offering of Yhwh.
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.”
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 Musee fi Eleʼaazaar lubichi akkuma Waaqayyo Musee ajaje sana godhan.
And Moses and Eleazar the priest did as Yhwh commanded Moses.
32 Wanti boojuu loltoonni fudhatan irraa hafe hoolota 675,000,
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 loon 72,000,
And threescore and twelve thousand beeves,
34 harroota 61,000,
And threescore and one thousand donkeys,
35 dubartoonni takkumaa dhiira wajjin hin ciisin 32,000 turan.
And thirty and two thousand persons in all, of women that had not known man by lying with him.
36 Qoodni walakkaa kan warra duulaniif qoodame: Hoolota 337,500
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 keessaa gibirri Waaqayyoo 675 ture;
And Yhwh's tribute of the sheep was six hundred and threescore and fifteen.
38 loon 36,000 keessaa gibirri Waaqayyoo 72 ture;
And the beeves were thirty and six thousand; of which Yhwh's tribute was threescore and twelve.
39 harroota 30,500 keessaa gibirri Waaqayyoo 61 ture;
And the donkeys were thirty thousand and five hundred; of which Yhwh's tribute was threescore and one.
40 nama 16,000 keessaa gibirri Waaqayyoo 32 ture.
And the persons were sixteen thousand; of which Yhwh's tribute was thirty and two persons.
41 Museen akkuma Waaqayyo isa ajaje sanatti gibira sana qooda Waaqayyoo godhee Eleʼaazaar lubichatti kenne.
And Moses gave the tribute, which was Yhwh's heave offering, unto Eleazar the priest, as Yhwh commanded Moses.
42 Qooda walakkaa kan Museen warra duulan irraa Israaʼelootaaf qoode:
And of the children of Israel’s half, which Moses divided from the men that warred,
43 Walakkaan boojuu kan waldaa sanaa hoolota 337,500,
( Now the half that pertained unto the congregation was three hundred thousand and thirty thousand and seven thousand and five hundred sheep,
44 loon 36,000,
And thirty and six thousand beeves,
45 harroota 30,500,
And thirty thousand donkeys and five hundred,
46 nama 16,000 ture.
And 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.
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 Ergasiis ajajjuuwwan loltoota kumaatama irratti aangoo qaban jechuunis ajajjuuwwan kumaatii fi ajajjuuwwan dhibbaa gara Musee dhaqanii
And the officers which were over thousands of the army, the captains of thousands, and captains of hundreds, came near unto Moses:
49 akkana jedhaniin; “Nu garboonni kee loltoota ajaja keenya jala jiran lakkoofneerra; namni tokko iyyuu hin hirʼanne.
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 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.”
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 Musee fi Eleʼaazaar lubichis warqee fi faayawwan harkaan tolfaman hunda isaan harkaa fuudhan.
And Moses and Eleazar the priest took the gold of them, even all wrought jewels.
52 Warqeen ajajjuuwwan kumaatii fi ajajjuuwwan dhibbaa kennan kanneen Musee fi Eleʼaazaar akka kennaatti Waaqayyoof dhiʼeessan hundi saqilii 16,750 ulfaatu ture.
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 Tokkoon tokkoon loltootaa ofii isaaniitiif boojuu fudhatanii turan.
( For the men of war had taken spoil, every man for himself.)
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 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.
