Números 25
1 E Israel deteve-se em Sittim, e o povo começou a fornicar com as filhas dos moabitas.
And Israel at that time abode in Settim, and the people committed fornication with the daughters of Moab,
2 E convidaram o povo aos sacrificios dos seus deuses; e o povo comeu, e inclinou-se aos seus deuses.
Who called them to their sacrifices. And they ate of them, and adored their gods.
3 Juntando-se pois Israel a Baalpeor, a ira do Senhor se accendeu contra Israel.
And Israel was initiated to Beelphegor: upon which the Lord being angry,
4 Disse o Senhor a Moysés: Toma todos os Cabeças do povo, e enforca-os ao Senhor diante do sol, e o ardor da ira do Senhor se retirará d'Israel.
Said to Moses: Take all the princes of the people, and hang them up on gibbets against the sun: that my fury may be turned away from Israel.
5 Então Moysés disse aos juizes d'Israel: Cada um mate os seus homens que se conjuntaram a Baalpeor.
And Moses said to the judges of Israel: Let every man kill his neighbours, that have been initiated to Beelphegor.
6 E eis que veiu um homem dos filhos de Israel, e trouxe a seus irmãos uma midianita aos olhos de Moysés, e aos olhos de toda a congregação dos filhos de Israel, chorando elles diante da tenda da congregação.
And behold one of the children of Israel went in before his brethren to a harlot of Madian, in the sight of Moses, and of all the children of Israel, who were weeping before the door of the tabernacle.
7 Vendo isso Phineas, filho de Eleazar, o filho d'Aarão, sacerdote, se levantou do meio da congregação, e tomou uma lança na sua mão
And when Phinees the son of Eleazar the son of Aaron the priest saw it, he rose up from the midst; of the multitude, and taking a dagger,
8 E foi após do varão israelita até á tenda, e os atravessou a ambos, ao varão israelita e á mulher, pela sua barriga: então a praga cessou de sobre os filhos de Israel
Went in after the Israelite into the brothel house, and thrust both of them through together, to wit, the man and the woman in the genital parts. And the scourge ceased from the children of Israel:
9 E os que morreram d'aquella praga foram vinte e quatro mil.
And there were slain four and twenty thousand men.
10 Então o Senhor fallou a Moysés, dizendo:
And the Lord said to Moses:
11 Phineas, filho d'Eleazar, o filho d'Aarão sacerdote, desviou a minha ira de sobre os filhos de Israel, pois zelou o meu zelo no meio d'elles; que no meu zelo não consumi os filhos d'Israel.
Phinees the son of Eleazar the son of Aaron the priest, hath turned away my wrath from the children of Israel: because he was moved with my zeal against them, that I myself might not destroy the children of Israel in my zeal.
12 Portanto dize: Eis que lhe dou o meu concerto de paz,
Therefore say to him: Behold I give him the peace of my covenant,
13 E elle, e a sua semente depois d'elle, terá o concerto do sacerdocio perpetuo; porquanto teve zelo pelo seu Deus, e fez propiciação pelos filhos d'Israel.
And the covenant of the priesthood for ever shall be both to him and his seed, because he hath been zealous for his God, and hath made atonement for the wickedness of the children of Israel.
14 E o nome do israelita morto, que foi morto com a midianita, era Zimri, filho de Salu, maioral da casa paterna dos simeonitas.
And the name of the Israelite, was slain with the woman of Madian, was Zambri the son of Salu, a prince the kindred and tribe of Simeon.
15 E o nome da mulher midianita, morta, era Cosbi, filha de Zur, cabeça do povo da casa paterna entre os midianitas.
And the Madianite woman, that was slain with him, was called Cozbi the daughter of Sur, a most noble prince among the Madianites.
16 Fallou mais o Senhor a Moysés, dizendo:
And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
17 Affligireis os midianitas e os ferireis,
Let the Madianites find you enemies, and slay you them:
18 Porque elles vos affligiram a vós outros com os seus enganos com que vos enganaram no negocio de Peor, e no negocio de Cosbi, filha do maioral dos midianitas, a irmã d'elles, que foi morta no dia da praga no negocio de Peor.
Because they also have acted like enemies against you, and have guilefully deceived you by the idol Phogor, and Cozbi their sister, a daughter of a prince of Madian, who was slain in the day the plague for the sacrilege of Phogor.
