4 Mojzes 25
1 Izrael je prebival v Šitímu in ljudstvo se je začelo vlačugati z moábskimi hčerami.
Israel stayed in Shittim; and the people began to play the prostitute with the daughters of Moab;
2 Ljudstvo so poklicali k žrtvovanjem njihovih bogov, in ljudstvo je jedlo in se priklonilo njihovim bogovom.
for they called the people to the sacrifices of their gods. The people ate and bowed down to their gods.
3 Izrael se je pridružil Báal Peórju in Gospodova jeza je bila vžgana zoper Izrael.
Israel joined himself to Baal Peor, and the LORD’s anger burned against Israel.
4 Gospod je rekel Mojzesu: »Vzemi vse poglavarje ljudstva in jih obesi pred Gospodom, nasproti soncu, da se bo kruta Gospodova jeza lahko odvrnila od Izraela.«
The LORD said to Moses, “Take all the chiefs of the people, and hang them up to the LORD before the sun, that the fierce anger of the LORD may turn away from Israel.”
5 Mojzes je rekel Izraelovim sodnikom: »Vsak naj ubije svoje može, ki so bili pridruženi Báal Peórju.«
Moses said to the judges of Israel, “Everyone kill his men who have joined themselves to Baal Peor.”
6 Glej, eden izmed Izraelovih otrok je prišel in k svojim bratom privedel midjánsko žensko pred očmi Mojzesa in pred očmi vse skupnosti Izraelovih otrok, ki so jokali pred vrati šotorskega svetišča skupnosti.
Behold, one of the children of Israel came and brought to his brothers a Midianite woman in the sight of Moses, and in the sight of all the congregation of the children of Israel, while they were weeping at the door of the Tent of Meeting.
7 Ko je Pinhás, sin Eleazarja, sin duhovnika Arona, to videl, je vstal izmed skupnosti in v svojo roko vzel kopje
When Phinehas, the son of Eleazar, the son of Aaron the priest, saw it, he rose up from the middle of the congregation, and took a spear in his hand.
8 in odšel za Izraelovim možem v šotor in oba izmed njiju prebodel, Izraelovega moškega in žensko je prebodel skozi njen trebuh. Tako je bila kuga ustavljena pred Izraelovimi otroki.
He went after the man of Israel into the pavilion, and thrust both of them through, the man of Israel, and the woman through her body. So the plague was stopped among the children of Israel.
9 Teh, ki so v kugi umrli, je bilo štiriindvajset tisoč.
Those who died by the plague were twenty-four thousand.
10 Gospod je spregovoril Mojzesu, rekoč:
The LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
11 »Pinhás, sin Eleazarja, sin duhovnika Arona, je moj bes odvrnil proč od Izraelovih otrok, medtem ko je bil med njimi goreč zaradi mene, da ne bi jaz v svoji ljubosumnosti použil Izraelovih otrok.
“Phinehas, the son of Eleazar, the son of Aaron the priest, has turned my wrath away from the children of Israel, in that he was jealous with my jealousy among them, so that I didn’t consume the children of Israel in my jealousy.
12 Zato reci: ›Glej, dam mu svojo zavezo miru
Therefore say, ‘Behold, I give to him my covenant of peace.
13 in imel jo bo in njegovo seme za njim, celó zavezo večnega duhovništva, ker je bil goreč za svojega Boga in opravil spravo za Izraelove otroke.‹«
It shall be to him, and to his offspring after him, the covenant of an everlasting priesthood, because he was jealous for his God, and made atonement for the children of Israel.’”
14 Torej ime Izraelca, ki je bil umorjen, torej tistega, ki je bil umorjen z Midjánko, je bilo Salújev sin Zimrí, princ glavne hiše med Simeonovci.
Now the name of the man of Israel that was slain, who was slain with the Midianite woman, was Zimri, the son of Salu, a prince of a fathers’ house among the Simeonites.
15 Ime midjánske ženske, ki je bila umorjena, je bilo Kozbí, hči Cura. On je bil poglavar nad ljudstvom in vodja hiše v Midjánu.
The name of the Midianite woman who was slain was Cozbi, the daughter of Zur. He was head of the people of a fathers’ house in Midian.
16 Gospod je spregovoril Mojzesu, rekoč:
The LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
17 »Jezite Midjánce in jih udarite,
“Harass the Midianites, and strike them;
18 kajti jezili so vas s svojimi zvijačami, s katerimi so vas preslepili v zadevi Peórja in v zadevi Kozbí, hčere midjánskega princa, njihove sestre, ki je bila umorjena na dan nadloge zaradi Peórja.«
for they harassed you with their wiles, wherein they have deceived you in the matter of Peor, and in the incident regarding Cozbi, the daughter of the prince of Midian, their sister, who was slain on the day of the plague in the matter of Peor.”
