4 Mose 25
1 Bere a Israelfo no tenaa Sitim no, wɔn mu mmarima no bi fii ase ne Moab mmea no bɔɔ aguaman de guu wɔn ho fi.
Pea naʻe nofo ʻa ʻIsileli ʻi Sitimi, pea naʻe kamata fai ʻe he kakai ʻae feʻauaki mo e ngaahi ʻofefine ʻo Moape.
2 Saa mmea yi too nsa frɛɛ wɔn ma wɔkɔbɔɔ afɔre maa wɔn anyame. Wodii Moabfo anyame so afɔrebɔ nnuan na wɔkotow wɔn nso.
Pea naʻa nau ui ʻae kakai ki he ngaahi feilaulau ki honau ngaahi ʻotua: pea naʻe kai ʻe he kakai, mo nau punou hifo ki honau ngaahi ʻotua.
3 Enti Baal a ɛwɔ Peor no som bɛyɛɛ ɔhyɛ maa Israelfo. Eyi maa Awurade bo fuw ne nkurɔfo no yiye.
Pea naʻe feangai ʻa ʻIsileli mo Peali-Peoli: pea naʻe vela ʻae houhau ʻo Sihova ki ʻIsileli.
4 Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Mose se, “Fa saa nnipa yi ntuanofo no nyinaa, kunkum wɔn na fa wɔn gu owia so wɔ Awurade anim sɛnea ɛbɛyɛ a, nʼabufuwhyew no befi Israel so.”
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Sihova kia Mōsese, “ʻAve ʻae houʻeiki ʻoe kakai, ke tautau ʻakinautolu ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova ʻi he ʻao ʻoe laʻā, koeʻuhi ke foki ai ʻae houhau lahi ʻo Sihova mei ʻIsileli.”
5 Enti Mose ka kyerɛɛ Israel atemmufo no no se, “Ɛsɛ sɛ mo mu biara kunkum mo nkurɔfo a wɔde wɔn ho akɔhyɛ Baal a ɛwɔ Peor no ase no nyinaa.”
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Mōsese ki he kau fakamaau ʻo ʻIsileli, “Taki taha tāmateʻi ʻa hono kau tangata naʻe feangai mo Peali-Peoli.”
6 Na Israelni bi de Midiani bea bi baa wɔn atenae hɔ maa Mose ne nnipa no nyinaa huu wɔn bere a na wogyinagyina Ahyiae Ntamadan pon no ano retwa adwo no.
Pea, vakai, naʻe haʻu ʻae tokotaha ʻoe fānau ʻa ʻIsileli ʻo ʻomi ki hono kāinga ha fefine Mitiane ʻi he ʻao ʻo Mōsese, pea ʻi he ʻao ʻoe kakai kotoa pē ʻoe fānau ʻa ʻIsileli, lolotonga ʻenau tangi ʻi he veʻe matapā ʻoe fale fehikitaki ʻoe kakai.
7 Bere a Pinehas a ɔyɛ Eleasar babarima a na ɔyɛ ɔsɔfo Aaron nena huu eyi no, ofii wɔn mu, kɔfaa peaw kitae;
Pea ʻi he mamata ki ai ʻa Finiasi, ko e foha ʻo ʻEliesa, ko e foha ia ʻo ʻElone ko e taulaʻeiki, naʻe tuʻu hake ia ʻi he kakai, ʻo ne toʻo ʻae tao ʻi hono nima;
8 na odii Israelni no akyi kɔɔ ntamadan no mu. Ɔde peaw no wɔɔ ɔbarima no san de wɔɔ ɔbea no yafunu mu. Enti ɔyaredɔm a na aba Israelfo no so no to twae;
Pea naʻe muimui ia ʻi he tangata ko ia ki hono fale fehikitaki, ʻo ne hokaʻi ʻakinaua ʻo ʻasi, ʻae tangata ʻIsileli, mo e fefine, ʻi hono kete, ko ia naʻe tuku ai ʻae mahaki fakaʻauha mei he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli.
9 nanso saa bere no, na nnipa mpem aduonu anan awuwu dedaw.
Pea ko kinautolu naʻe mate ʻi he mahaki fakaʻauha naʻe toko ua mano ma toko fā afe.
10 Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Mose se,
Pea naʻe folofola ʻa Sihova kia Mōsese, ʻo pehē,
11 “Eleasar babarima Pinehas a ɔyɛ ɔsɔfo Aaron nena ayi mʼabufuw afi Israelfo no so. Esiane sɛ wako apere mʼanuonyam wɔ wɔn mu sɛnea mepɛ ayɛ no nti, sɛnea meyɛɛ mʼadwene sɛ mɛsɛe Israelfo no, magyae.
“Ko Finiasi, ko e foha ʻo ʻEliesa, ko e foha ia ʻo ʻElone ko e taulaʻeiki, kuo fakaafe ʻe ia ʻa hoku houhau mei he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli, ʻi heʻene fai feinga kiate kinautolu koeʻuhi ko au, ko ia naʻe ʻikai ai te u fakaʻauha ʻae fānau ʻa ʻIsileli ʻi hoku fuaʻa.
12 Enti ka kyerɛ no se, me ne no rebɛyɛ asomdwoe apam.
Pea ko ia, ke ke pehē, Vakai, te u foaki kiate ia ʻeku fuakava ʻoe fiemālie:
13 Saa apam yi mu, ɔno ne nʼasefo bɛyɛ asɔfo afebɔɔ, efisɛ watwe me ho ninkunu wɔ Israelfo mu de ayɛ mpata ama wɔn.”
Pea te ne maʻu ʻe ia, pea mo hono hako ki mui ʻiate ia, ʻae fuakava ʻoe ngāue fakataulaʻeiki ʻo lauikuonga; koeʻuhi kuo ne fai feinga ki hono ʻOtua, pea ne fai ʻae fakalelei koeʻuhi ko e fānau ʻa ʻIsileli.”
14 Ɔbarima a wokum no ne Midiani bea no, na ne din de Simri a na ɔyɛ Salu a otua Simeon abusuakuw ano no babarima.
Pea ko e hingoa eni ʻoe tangata ʻIsileli naʻe tali, ʻio, ʻaia naʻe tali fakataha mo e fefine Mitiane, ko Simili, ko e foha ʻo Salu, ko e ʻeiki ʻoe fale lahi ʻi he faʻahinga ʻo Simione.
15 Ɔbea no nso, na ne din de Kosbi a na ɔyɛ Midianhene babarima Sur babea.
Pea ko e hingoa ʻoe fefine Mitiane naʻe tali ko Kosipi, ko e ʻofefine ʻo Sua; ko e ʻeiki ia ki he kakai, mo e fale lahi ʻi Mitiane.
16 Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Mose se,
Pea naʻe folofola ʻa Sihova kia Mōsese, ʻo pehē,
17 “Tow hyɛ Midianfo no so sɛ atamfo na kunkum wɔn.
“Fakafiuʻi ʻae kau Mitiane, ʻo taaʻi ʻakinautolu:
18 Efisɛ wɔfaa mo sɛ atamfo, na wɔdaadaa mo ma mo som Baal a ɛwɔ Peor, ne Kosbi a ɔyɛ Midian ntuanoni babea, a wokum no wɔ Peor ɔyaredɔm da no.”
He kuo nau fakafiuʻi ʻakimoutolu ʻaki ʻenau kākā, ʻaia kuo nau fakakākaaʻi ʻaki ʻakimoutolu ʻi he meʻa ʻa Peoli, mo e meʻa ʻa Kosipi, ko e ʻofefine ʻoe ʻeiki ʻo Mitiane, ko honau tuofefine, ʻaia kuo tāmateʻi ʻi he ʻaho ʻoe mahaki fakaʻauha koeʻuhi ko Peoli.”
