Números 31
1 E fallou o Senhor a Moysés, dizendo:
And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
2 Vinga os filhos d'Israel dos midianitas: depois recolhido serás aos teus povos.
“First, avenge the sons of Israel from the Midianites, and then you shall be gathered to your people.”
3 Fallou pois Moysés ao povo, dizendo: Armem-se alguns de vós para a guerra, e saiam contra os midianitas, para fazerem a vingança do Senhor nos midianitas.
And immediately Moses said: “Arm the men among you for a battle, so that they may be able to fulfill the retribution of the Lord on the Midianites.
4 Mil de cada tribu entre todas as tribus de Israel enviareis á guerra.
Let one thousand men be chosen from each tribe of Israel, who shall be sent to war.”
5 Assim foram dados dos milhares d'Israel mil de cada tribu: doze mil armados para a peleja.
And they gave one thousand from each tribe, that is, twelve thousand foot soldiers for battle.
6 E Moysés os mandou á guerra de cada tribu mil, a elles e a Phineas, filho d'Eleazar sacerdote, á guerra com os vasos sanctos, e com as trombetas do alarido na sua mão.
And Moses sent them with Phinehas, the son of Eleazar the priest; also, he delivered to him the holy vessels, and the trumpets to sound.
7 E pelejaram contra os midianitas, como o Senhor ordenara a Moysés: e mataram a todo o macho.
And when they had fought against the Midianites and had prevailed, they killed all the men.
8 Mataram mais, além dos que já foram mortos, os reis dos midianitas, Evi, e a Requem, e a Zur, e a Hur, e a Reba, cinco reis dos midianitas: tambem a Balaão filho de Beor mataram á espada.
And they put to death by the sword their kings: Evi, and Rekem, and Zur, and Hur, and Reba, the five leaders of the nation, and also Balaam the son of Beor.
9 Porém os filhos d'Israel levaram presas as mulheres dos midianitas, e as suas creanças: tambem roubaram todos os seus animaes, e todo o seu gado, e toda a sua fazenda.
And they seized their women and little ones, and all their cattle, and all their goods; whatever they were able to have, they despoiled.
10 E queimaram a fogo todas as suas cidades com todas as suas habitações, e todos os seus acampamentos.
Both their cities and their villages, as well as their fortresses, they burned.
11 E tomaram todo o despojo e toda a presa d'homens e d'animais.
And they carried away prey from everything that they had seized, both of men and of beasts.
12 E trouxeram a Moysés e a Eleazar o sacerdote e á congregação dos filhos de Israel os captiveiros, e a presa, e o despojo para o arraial, nas campinas de Moab, que estão junto do Jordão de Jericó.
And they led these to Moses and Eleazar the priest, and to all the multitude of the sons of Israel. But the remainder of the articles they carried to the camp on the plains of Moab, next to the Jordan, opposite Jericho.
13 Porém Moysés e Eleazar, o sacerdote, e todos os maioraes da congregação sairam a recebel-os até fóra do arraial.
Then Moses, and Eleazar the priest, and all the leaders of the assembly went out to meet them beyond the camp.
14 E indignou-se Moysés grandemente contra os officiaes do exercito, capitães dos milhares e capitães das centenas, que vinham do serviço d'aquella guerra.
And Moses, being angry with the leaders of the army, and the tribunes, and the centurions, who had arrived from the battle,
15 E Moysés disse-lhes: Deixastes viver todas as mulheres?
said: “Why have you spared the females?
16 Eis que estas foram as que por conselho de Balaão deram occasião aos filhos de Israel de traspassar contra o Senhor, no negocio de Peor: pelo que aquella praga houve entre a congregação do Senhor.
Are not these the ones who deceived the sons of Israel at the suggestion of Balaam, and who caused you betray the Lord by the sin of Peor, because of which the people also were struck down?
17 Agora pois matae todo o macho entre as creanças; e matae toda a mulher, que conheceu algum homem, deitando-se com elle.
Therefore, put to death all of them: whatever is of the male sex, even among the little ones, and cut the throats of those women who have known men by sexual relations.
18 Porém todas as creanças femeas, que não conheceram algum homem deitando-se com elle, para vós deixae viver.
But the young girls, and all female virgins, reserve for yourselves.
19 E vós alojae-vos sete dias fóra do arraial: qualquer que tiver matado alguma pessoa, e qualquer que tiver tocado algum morto, ao terceiro dia, e ao setimo dia vos purificareis, a vós e a vossos captivos.
And remain beyond the camp for seven days. Whoever has killed a man, or who has touched one that was killed, shall be purified on the third day and on the seventh day.
20 Tambem purificareis todo o vestido, e toda a obra de pelles, e toda a obra de pellos de cabras, e todo o vaso de madeira.
And all of the spoils, whether it is a garment, or a vessel, or another useful thing, made from the pelts or hair of goats, or from wood, shall be expiated.”
21 E disse Eleazar, o sacerdote, aos homens da guerra, que partiram á peleja: Este é o estatuto da lei que o Senhor ordenou a Moysés.
Likewise, Eleazar the priest spoke in this manner to the men of the army who had fought: “This is the precept of the law, which the Lord has commanded Moses:
22 Comtudo o oiro, e a prata, o cobre, o ferro, o estanho, e o chumbo;
Gold, and silver, and brass, and iron, and lead, and tin,
23 Toda a cousa que pode supportar o fogo, para que fique limpo: todavia se expiará com a agua da separação: mas tudo que não pode supportar o fogo, o fareis passar pela agua.
and all that may be able to pass through fire, shall be purified by fire. But whatever is not able to sustain fire shall be sanctified with the waters of expiation.
24 Tambem lavareis os vossos vestidos ao setimo dia, para que fiqueis limpos: e depois entrareis no arraial.
And you shall wash your garments on the seventh day, and, after having been purified, you shall enter the camp.”
25 Fallou mais o Senhor a Moysés dizendo:
And the Lord also said to Moses:
26 Toma a somma da presa dos prisioneiros, de homens, e d'animaes, tu e Eleazar, o sacerdote, e os Cabeças das casas dos paes da congregação;
“Take the sum of those things which were captured, from man even to beast, you and Eleazar the priest, and the leaders of the common people.
27 E divide a presa em duas metades, entre os que accometteram a peleja, e sairam á guerra, e toda a congregação.
And you shall divide the prey equally, among those who went out to war and fought, and among the remainder of the multitude.
28 Então para o Senhor tomará o tributo dos homens de guerra, que sairam a esta guerra, de cada quinhentos uma alma, dos homens, e dos bois, e dos jumentos e das ovelhas.
And you shall separate a portion for the Lord from the portion of those who fought and were in the battle: one soul out of five hundred, as much from humans, as from oxen and donkeys and sheep.
29 Da sua ametade o tomareis, e o dareis ao sacerdote, Eleazar, para a offerta alçada do Senhor.
And you shall give it to Eleazar the priest, because these are the first-fruits of the Lord.
30 Mas da metade dos filhos de Israel tomarás de cada cincoenta um, dos homens, dos bois, dos jumentos, e das ovelhas, de todos os animaes; e os darás aos levitas que teem cuidado da guarda do tabernaculo do Senhor.
Likewise, from the half of the portion belonging to the sons of Israel, you shall receive the fiftieth head of humans, and of oxen, and donkeys, and sheep, and of all living things, and you shall give these to the Levites who stand watch over the care of the tabernacle of the Lord.”
31 E fizeram Moysés e Eleazar, o sacerdote, como o Senhor ordenara a Moysés.
And Moses and Eleazar did just as the Lord had instructed.
32 Foi pois a presa, o restante do despojo, que tomaram os homens de guerra, seiscentas e setenta e cinco mil ovelhas;
Now the prey which the army had seized was six hundred seventy-five thousand sheep,
33 E setenta e dois mil bois;
seventy-two thousand oxen,
34 E sessenta e um mil jumentos;
sixty-one thousand donkeys,
35 E, das mulheres que não conheceram homem algum deitando-se com elle, todas as almas foram trinta e duas mil.
and thirty-two thousand human lives, of the female sex, who had not known men.
36 E a metade, a parte dos que sairam á guerra, foi em numero de trezentas e trinta e sete mil e quinhentas ovelhas.
And one half of the portion was given to those who had been in the battle: three hundred thirty-seven thousand five hundred sheep.
37 E das ovelhas foi o tributo para o Senhor seiscentas e setenta e cinco.
From these, for the portion of the Lord, there were accounted: six hundred seventy-five sheep;
38 E foram os bois trinta e seis mil: e o seu tributo para o Senhor setenta e dois.
and from the thirty-six thousand oxen, seventy-two oxen;
39 E foram os jumentos trinta mil e quinhentos: e o seu tributo para o Senhor sessenta e um.
from the thirty thousand five hundred donkeys, sixty-one donkeys.
40 E houve d'almas humanas dezeseis mil: e o seu tributo para o Senhor trinta e duas almas.
From the sixteen thousand human souls, there fell to the portion of the Lord thirty-two souls.
41 E deu Moysés a Eleazar, o sacerdote, o tributo da offerta alçada do Senhor, como o Senhor ordenara a Moysés.
And Moses delivered the number of the first-fruits of the Lord to Eleazar the priest, just as had been commanded of him,
42 E da metade dos filhos de Israel que Moysés partira da dos homens que pelejaram.
from the one half portion belonging to the sons of Israel, which he had separated from the portion of those who had been in the battle.
43 (A metade para a congregação foi, das ovelhas, trezentas e trinta e sete mil e quinhentas;
Yet truly, from the one half portion which fell to the remainder of the multitude, that is, from the three hundred thirty-seven thousand five hundred sheep,
44 E dos bois trinta e seis mil;
and from the thirty-six thousand oxen,
45 E dos jumentos trinta mil e quinhentos;
and from the thirty thousand five hundred donkeys,
46 E das almas humanas dezeseis mil),
and from the sixteen thousand persons,
47 D'esta metade dos filhos de Israel, Moysés tomou um de cada cincoenta, d'homens e d'animaes, e os deu aos levitas, que tinham cuidado da guarda do tabernaculo do Senhor, como o Senhor ordenara a Moysés.
Moses took the fiftieth head, and gave it to the Levites who stand watch at the tabernacle of the Lord, just as the Lord had instructed.
48 Então chegaram-se a Moysés os capitães que estavam sobre os milhares do exercito, os tribunos e os centuriões;
And when the leaders of the army, and the tribunes, and the centurions had approached Moses, they said:
49 E disseram a Moysés: Teus servos tomaram a somma dos homens de guerra que estiveram sob a nossa mão; e nenhum falta de nós.
“We, your servants, have taken a census of the number of the fighting men, whom we had under our hand, and indeed not one was lacking.
50 Pelo que trouxemos uma offerta ao Senhor, cada um o que achou, vasos d'oiro, cadeias, ou manilhas, anneis, arrecadas, e collares, para fazer propiciação pelas nossas almas perante o Senhor.
For this reason, we offer as gifts to the Lord whatever gold each one was able to find amid the spoils, in anklets and arm bands, rings and bracelets, and little chains, so that you may intercede for us to the Lord.”
51 Assim Moysés e Eleazar o sacerdote tomaram d'elles o oiro; sendo todos os vasos bem obrados.
And Moses and Eleazar the priest received all the gold in its various kinds,
52 E foi todo o oiro da offerta alçada, que offereceram ao Senhor, dezeseis mil e setecentos e cincoenta siclos, dos tribunos e dos centuriões.
weighing sixteen thousand seven hundred fifty shekels, from the tribunes and the centurions.
53 (Pois os homens de guerra, cada um tinha tomado presa para si).
For whatever each one had taken away in the spoils was his own.
54 Tomaram pois Moysés e Eleazar o sacerdote o oiro dos tribunos e dos centuriões, e o trouxeram á tenda da congregação por lembrança para os filhos d'Israel perante o Senhor.
And having been accepted, they took it into the tabernacle of the testimony, as a memorial of the sons of Israel before the Lord.
