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.”
Avenge the wrongs of the children of Israel on the Madianites, and afterwards you shall be added to your 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 spoke to the people, saying, Arm some of you, and set yourselves in array before the Lord against Madian, to inflict vengeance on Madian from the Lord.
4 Tokkoo tokkoo gosa Israaʼel keessaa nama kuma tokko tokkoo duulatti ergaa.”
Send a thousand of each tribe from all the tribes of the children of Israel to set themselves in array.
5 Akkasitti tokkoo tokkoo gosa Israaʼel keessaa namoonni kumni tokko tokko walitti buufamanii namni kumni kudha lama lolaaf hidhate.
And they numbered of the thousands of Israel a thousand of [each] tribe, twelve thousands; [these were] 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 away a thousand of every tribe with their forces, and Phinees the son of Eleazar the son of Aaron the priest: and the holy instruments, and the signal trumpets [were] in their hands.
7 Isaanis akkuma Waaqayyo Musee ajaje sanatti warra Midiyaan lolanii dhiira hunda ajjeesan.
And they set themselves in array against Madian, as the Lord commanded Moses; and they killed every male.
8 Mootonni Midiyaan shanan jechuunis Eewii, Reqem, Zuuri, Huurii fi Rebaanis warra ajjeefaman keessa turan. Akkasumas Balaʼaam ilma Beʼoor goraadeedhaan ajjeesan.
And they killed the kings of Madian together with their slain [subjects]; even Evi and Rocon, and Sur, and Ur, and Roboc, five kings of Madian; and they killed with the sword Balaam the son of Beor with their [other] slain.
9 Israaʼeloonni dubartootaa fi ijoollee warra Midiyaan boojiʼan; loon, bushaayee fi qabeenya isaanii hundas ni saaman.
And they made a prey of the women of Madian, and their store, and their cattle, and all their possessions: and they spoiled their forces.
10 Magaalaawwan Midiyaanonni keessa jiraatan hundaa fi qubatawwan isaanii hunda ibiddaan guban.
And they burnt with fire all their cities in the places of their habitation and they burnt their villages with fire.
11 Isaanis waan boojiʼanii fi waan saaman hunda namaa fi horii illee fuudhanii
And they took all their plunder, and all their spoils, both man and beast.
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 to Moses and to Eleazar the priest, and to all the children of Israel, the captives, and the spoils, and the plunder, to the camp to Araboth Moab, which is at Jordan by Jericho.
13 Museen, Eleʼaazaar lubichii fi hooggantoonni waldaa hundi qubataan alatti isaan simachuuf gad baʼan.
And Moses and Eleazar the priest and all the rulers of the synagogue went forth out of the camp to meet them.
14 Museenis ajajjuuwwan loltootaa jechuunis ajajjuuwwan kumaatii fi ajajjuuwwan dhibbaa kanneen lolaa galanitti aare.
And Moses was angry with the captains of the host, the heads of thousands and the heads of hundreds who came from the battle-array.
15 Innis akkana jedhee isaan gaafate; “Isin maaliif dubartoota hunda hambiftan?
And Moses said to them, Why have you saved every female alive?
16 Kunoo warri waan Pheʼooritti taʼe sana keessatti gorsa Balaʼaam fudhachuudhaan akka dhaʼichi saba Waaqayyoo irra buʼuuf Israaʼeloota Waaqayyo irraa deebisan isaan turan.
For they were [the occasion] to the children of Israel by the word of Balaam of their revolting and despising the word of the Lord, because of Phogor; and there was a plague in the congregation of the Lord.
17 Ammas ilmaan dhiiraa hunda fixaa; akkasumas dubartii dhiira wajjin ciifte hunda ajjeesaa.
Now then kill every male in all the spoil, kill every woman, who has known the lying with man.
18 Garuu dubara takkumaa dhiira wajjin hin ciisin ofii keessaniif hambifadhaa.
And as for all the captivity of women, who have not known the lying with man, save you them alive.
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 you shall encamp outside the [great] camp seven days; every one who has slain and who touches a dead body, shall be purified on the third day, and you and your captivity [shall purify yourselves] on the seventh day.
20 Uffata hunda akkasumas waan gogaa irraa, rifeensa reʼee irraa yookaan muka irraa hojjetame hunda qulqulleessaa.”
And you shall purify every garment and every leather utensil, and all furniture of goat skin, and every wooden vessel.
21 Ergasiis Eleʼaazaar lubichi loltoota duula dhaqanii turan sanaan akkana jedhe; “Qajeelfamni seeraa kan Waaqayyo Museef kenne kanaa dha:
And Eleazar the priest said to the men of the host that came from the battle-array, This [is] the ordinance of the law which the Lord has commanded Moses.
22 Warqee, meetii, naasii, sibiila, qorqorroo, dilaalii fi
Beside the gold, and the silver, and the brass, and the iron, and lead, 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.
every thing that shall pass through the fire shall so be clean, nevertheless it shall be purified with the water of sanctification; and whatever will not pass through the fire shall pass through water.
24 Guyyaa torbaffaatti uffata keessan miiccadhaa; isinis ni qulqulleeffamtu. Ergasii qubatatti galuu dandeessu.”
And on the seventh day you shall wash your garments, and be clean; and afterwards you shall come into the camp.
25 Waaqayyo Museedhaan akkana jedhe;
And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,
26 “Ati, Eleʼaazaar lubichii fi abbootiin maatii waldaa sanaa namootaa fi horii boojiʼaman lakkaaʼaa.
Take the sum of the spoils of the captivity both of man and beast, you and Eleazar the priest, and the heads of the families of the congregation.
27 Boojuu sanas loltoota duula dhaqanii turanii fi waldaa hunda gidduutti iddoo lamatti qoodi.
And you shall divide the spoils between the warriors that went out to battle, and the whole congregation.
28 Loltoota duulan irraa namas taʼu loon, harroota, hoolota yookaan reʼoota dhibba shan keessaa tokko Waaqayyoof gibira fuudhi.
And you shall take a tribute for the Lord from the warriors that went out to battle; one soul out of five hundred, from the men, and from the cattle, even from the oxen, and from the sheep, and from the asses; and you shall take from their half.
29 Gibira sanas walakkaa qooda isaanii irraa fuudhii qooda Waaqayyoo godhiitii Eleʼaazaar lubichatti kenni.
And you shall give [them] to Eleazar the priest [as] the first fruits 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.”
And from the half belonging to the children of Israel you shall take one in fifty from the men, and from the oxen, and from the sheep, and from the asses, and from all the cattle; and you shall give them to the Levites that keep the charges in the tabernacle of the Lord.
31 Musee fi Eleʼaazaar lubichi akkuma Waaqayyo Musee ajaje sana godhan.

And all those who were appointed to be officers of thousands of the host, captains of thousands and captains of hundreds, approached Moses, and said to Moses,
49 akkana jedhaniin; “Nu garboonni kee loltoota ajaja keenya jala jiran lakkoofneerra; namni tokko iyyuu hin hirʼanne.
Your servants have taken the sum of the men of war with us, and not one is missing.

And we have brought our gift to the Lord, [every] man who has found an article of gold, whether an armlet, or a chain, or a ring, or a bracelet, or a clasp for hair, to make atonement for us before the Lord.
