4 Mose 31
1 Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Mose se,
UThixo wathi kuMosi,
2 “Esiane sɛ Midianfo daadaa mo de mo kɔɔ abosonsom mu no nti, tɔ so were ma Israelfo no. Eyi akyi no wubewu na woakɔ wʼagyanom nkyɛn.”
“Phindisela kumaMidiyani usenzela abako-Israyeli. Ngemva kwalokho, uzalandela okhokho bakho.”
3 Mose ka kyerɛɛ nkurɔfo so se, “Munyi mo mmarima no mu bi na wɔnkɔ Awurade aweretɔ sa a ɔde tia Midianfo no.
Ngakho uMosi wathi ebantwini, “Hlomisani amanye amadoda aye empini ayekulwa lamaMidiyani kanye lokuphindisela kukaThixo kuwo.
4 Momfa Israel abusua biara mu nnipa apem nkɔ ɔsa no.”
Thumelani amadoda ayinkulungwane avela esizwaneni ngasinye sako-Israyeli ukuyahlasela.”
5 Wɔyɛɛ saa nyaa mmarima mpem dumien siesie wɔn maa ɔko no; Israel abusuakuw biara maa mmarima apem.
Ngakho amadoda azinkulungwane ezilitshumi lambili ahlomela ukuyahlasela, kuyinkulungwane yamadoda avela esizwaneni ngasinye, ebuthwe ngosendo lunye ngalunye kwabako-Israyeli.
6 Afei Mose ma wɔkɔe, nnipa apem baako a wofi abusuakuw biara mu. Ɔsɔfo Eleasar babarima Pinehas na odii wɔn anim kɔɔ ɔko no. Wɔrekɔ no, wɔde akronkronne a ɛwɔ kronkronbea hɔ ne ntorobɛnto a wɔbɛhyɛn de ama asraafo no nsɛnkyerɛnne kɔe.
UMosi wabathumela ukuyahlasela, kuyinkulungwane evela esizwaneni ngasinye, kanye loFinehasi indodana ka-Eliyazari, umphristi, owathatha izitsha endlini engcwele kanye lamacilongo okubikelana.
7 Wɔne Midiafo no koe, na sɛnea Awurade hyɛɛ Mose no wokum Midian mmarima no nyinaa.
Balwa lamaMidiyani, njengokulaywa kukaMosi nguThixo, babulala amadoda wonke.
8 Wɔn a wokum wɔn no bi ne Midian ahemfo baanum a wɔn din de Ewi, Rekem, Sur, Hur ne Reba. Beor babarima Balaam nso, wɔde afoa kum no.
Phakathi kwababulawayo kwakulamakhosi amahlanu amaMidiyani abalisa u-Evi, uRekhemu, uZuri, uHuri kanye loRebha. Babulala loBhalamu indodana kaBheyori ngenkemba.
9 Afei, Israel asraafo no kyekyeree Midian mmea ne mmofra nyinaa ne wɔn anantwi ne wɔn nguan fom nneɛma pii kaa ho sɛ asade.
Abako-Israyeli bathumba abesifazane bamaMidiyani labantwana, basebethumba lemihlambi yenkomo zamaMidiyani, leyezimvu kanye lokubutha impahla njengempango.
10 Wɔtoo Midian no atenae, nkurow ne nkuraa nyinaa mu gya, hyew no pasaa.
Batshisa wonke amadolobho lapha okwakuhlala khona amaMidiyani, kanye lezihonqo zawo zonke.
11 Wɔfaa asade ne afowde a nnipa no ne mmoa ka ho.
Bathatha konke ababekubuthile lababekuthumbile, kuhlanganisa abantu lezifuyo,
12 Wɔde nnommum no ne ɔko no mu nneɛma a wonyae no nyinaa brɛɛ Mose, ɔsɔfo Eleasar ne Israelfo a na wɔabɔ wɔn atenase wɔ Moab tataw so baabi a na ɛbɛn Asubɔnten Yordan a wotwa fi Yeriko baa hɔ no.
njalo basebeletha abathunjwa, okuthunjiweyo lokubuthiweyo kuMosi lo-Eliyazari umphristi kanye lebandleni lonke lako-Israyeli ezihonqweni zabo zasemagcekeni aseMowabi, ngaseJodani ngaphetsheya ukuvelela eJerikho.
13 Mose ne ɔsɔfo Eleasar ne mpanyimfo a wotuatua nnipa no ano no fii atenae hɔ kohyiaa nkonimdifo no kwan.
UMosi, u-Eliyazari umphristi kanye labo bonke abakhokheli babantu baphuma ukuyabahlangabeza ngaphandle kwezihonqo.
14 Nanso Mose bo fuw mpanyimfo a wotuatua nsraadɔm apem ne ɔha no ano a wofi ɔsa no bae no.
UMosi wathukuthelela abalawuli bamabutho, ababelawula amaxuku ezinkulungwane lababelawula amaxuku angamakhulu, ababevela ekuhlaseleni.
15 Obisaa wɔn se, “So moankunkum mmea no?
UMosi wababuza wathi, “Selivumele abesifazane ukuthi baphile na?
16 Wɔn ne nnipa no a wotie Balaam nti wɔtwetwee Israelfo na amma wɔanni Awurade nokware kɔsom abosom wɔ bepɔw Peor so a enti ɛmaa ɔhaw ne abɛbrɛsɛ bebree baa Awurade nkurɔfo so no.
Yibo ababelandela ukucebisa kukaBhalamu njalo bahugela abako-Israyeli ekungathembekini kuThixo kulokhu okwenzakala ePheyori, kwaze kwathi abantu bakaThixo behlelwa yisifo.
17 Munkunkum mmarimaa no nyinaa. Na munkunkum mmea a wɔne mmarima adeda no nyinaa.
Khona khathesi bulalani abafana bonke. Njalo libulale wonke owesifazane oseke walala lendoda,
18 Mmeawa nketewa a wɔne mmarima nnae no na munnyaa wɔn na mo ne wɔn ntena.
kodwa lizigcinele loba yiphi intombazana engakaze ilale lendoda.
19 “Ɛsɛ sɛ obiara a wakum obi, anaa ɔde ne nsa kaa nea wɔakum no no, fi atenae ha nkɔtena baabi nnanson. Munnwira mo ho ne mo nnommum no nnansa ne ne nnanson so.
Lina lonke elibulele loba ngubani loba lina elike lathinta loba ngubani obuleweyo lizahlala ngaphandle kwezihonqo okwensuku eziyisikhombisa. Ngosuku lwesithathu langosuku lwesikhombisa lizihlambulule lina kanye labathunjwa benu.
20 Munnwira mo ntade ne biribiara a wɔde aboa nhoma, abirekyi nwi anaa dua ayɛ.”
Lihlambulule zonke izembatho kanye lakho konke okwenziwe ngesikhumba, uboya bembuzi loba okwezigodo.”
21 Afei, ɔsɔfo Eleasar ka kyerɛɛ mmarima a wɔkɔɔ ɔko no se, “Eyi ne mmara a Awurade ahyɛ a waka akyerɛ Mose:
Ngakho u-Eliyazari umphristi wathi kwabebutho ababeye empini, “Nanku okufaneleyo ngokomthetho owaphiwa uMosi nguThixo:
22 Sikakɔkɔɔ, dwetɛ, kɔbere, dade, sanyaa, sumpii
Igolide, isiliva, ithusi, insimbi, izenge lomnuso,
23 ne biribiara a etumi etumi gyina ogya ano no ɛsɛ sɛ wɔde fa ogya mu sɛnea ɛho bɛtew. Eyi akyi, ɛsɛ sɛ wɔde ahodwira nsu dwira ho ma ɛtew ho. Nanso, biribiara a ɛrentumi nnyina ogya ano no de, wɔmfa nsu nnwira ho.
kanye lakho konke okunye okungatshi kutshabalale emlilweni kumele kudlule emlilweni, ngalokho kuzabe sekuhlambulukile. Kodwa kumele njalo kube sekuhlanjululiwe ngamanzi okuhlambulula. Kanti njalo kuthi lakuphi okungeke kwamelana lomlilo kumele kudluliswe kulawomanzi.
24 Nnanson so no, ɛsɛ sɛ mohoro mo ntade na mo ho afi. Afei mubetumi asan aba atenae hɔ.”
Ngosuku lwesikhombisa gezisani izigqoko zenu ukuze lihlambuluke. Ngemva kwalokho selingangena ezihonqweni.”
25 Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Mose se,
UThixo wathi kuMosi,
26 “Ɛsɛ sɛ wo ne ɔsɔfo Eleasar ne mmusua no mpanyimfo nyinaa kan asade a nnipa ne mmoa a mofaa wɔ ɔko no mu no.
“Wena kanye lo-Eliyazari umphristi kanye labazinhloko zezimuli zabantu lizabala abantu bonke lezinyamazana, konke okwathunjwayo.
27 Monkyɛ asade no mu abien pɛpɛɛpɛ mfa fa mma asraafo a wɔkɔɔ ɔko no na momfa fa a aka no mma nnipa a wɔaka no.
Yabelani amabutho ayesempini kanye labantu bonke impango ngokulinganayo.
28 Asraafo a wɔkoo no kyɛfa mu no, munyi ahannum biara so baako; sɛ ɛyɛ nnipa, anantwi, mfurum anaa nguan na momfa nsom Awurade.
Emabuthweni alwayo empini, thathani okukodwa emakhulwini amahlanu kube yisabelo sikaThixo, kumbe ngabantu, inkomo, obabhemi, izimvu loba imbuzi.
29 Fa saa kyɛfa yi ma ɔsɔfo Eleasar na onhim no afɔremuka no anim mfa mma Awurade.
Thathani lesisabelo engxenyeni yesabo liyiphe u-Eliyazari umphristi ibe yingxenye kaThixo.
30 Afei Israelfo a wɔaka no kyɛfa no, munyi aduonum biara mu baako; sɛ ɛyɛ nnipa, anantwi, mfurum, nguanten anaa mmoa foforo biara no, momfa mma Lewifo a wɔhwɛ Awurade Ahyiae Ntamadan no so no.”
Kungxenye yabako-Israyeli, khethani okukodwa ematshumini amahlanu, phakathi kwabantu, inkomo, obabhemi, izimvu, imbuzi loba ezinye izifuyo. Zipheni abaLevi, bona abalomlandu wokunakekela ithabanikeli likaThixo.”
31 Enti Mose ne ɔsɔfo Eleasar yɛɛ nea Awurade hyɛɛ wɔn sɛ wɔnyɛ no.
Ngakho uMosi lo-Eliyazari umphristi benza njengokulaywa kukaMosi nguThixo.
32 Asade a ɛkae a akofo no fae no dodow yɛ nguan mpem ahansia ne aduɔson anum;
Impango eyayisele kulokho okwathathwa ngamabutho kwakuyizimvu eziyizinkulungwane ezingamakhulu ayisithupha lamatshumi ayisikhombisa lanhlanu,
33 anantwi mpem aduɔson abien;
inkomo eziyizinkulungwane ezingamatshumi ayisikhombisa lambili,
34 mfurum mpem aduosia baako;
obabhemi abazinkulungwane ezingamatshumi ayisithupha lanye
35 ne mmeawa mpem aduasa abien.
kanye labesifazane abazinkulungwane ezingamatshumi amathathu lambili ababengakaze balale lamadoda.
36 Nneɛma no fa a wɔde maa asraafo no dodow ni: Nguan mpem ahaasa aduasa ason ne ahannum
Ingxenye yesabelo salabo abalwayo empini: sasingesezimvu eziyizinkulungwane ezingamakhulu amathathu lamatshumi amathathu alesikhombisa, lamakhulu amahlanu,
37 a wɔde mu ahansia aduɔson anum som Awurade;
lapho abakhipha khona umnikelo kaThixo oyizimvu ezingamakhulu ayisithupha lamatshumi ayisikhombisa lanhlanu;
38 Anantwi mpem aduasa asia a wɔde mu aduɔson abien som Awurade;
lenkomo eziyizinkulungwane ezingamatshumi amathathu lesithupha, okwakhitshwa kizo ezomnikelo kaThixo ezingamatshumi ayisikhombisa lambili;
39 mfurum mpem aduasa ne ahannum a wɔde emu aduosia baako som Awurade;
obabhemi abazinkulungwane ezingamatshumi amathathu lamakhulu amahlanu, kwathi umnikelo kaThixo waba ngamatshumi ayisithupha lanye;
40 mmeawa mpem dunsia; wɔde wɔn mu aduasa abien som Awurade.
abantu abazinkulungwane ezilitshumi lasithupha, kwanikelwa kuThixo ngabangamatshumi amathathu lambili.
41 Kyɛfa a wɔde Awurade no nyinaa no wɔde maa ɔsɔfo Eleasar sɛnea Awurade kyerɛɛ Mose sɛ ɔnyɛ no ara pɛ.
UMosi wanika u-Eliyazari umphristi isabelo sikaThixo, njengokulaywa kukaMosi nguThixo.
42 Asade no a Israelfo no nyaa no na edidi so yi:
Ingxenye yesabelo sabako-Israyeli uMosi wayeseyehlukanise leyamabutho,
43 nguan mpem ahaasa aduasa ason ne ahannum,
ingxenye eyayingeyabantu yaba yizimvu eziyizinkulungwane ezingamakhulu amathathu lamatshumi amathathu lesikhombisa, lamakhulu amahlanu,
44 anantwi mpem aduasa asia,
inkomo eziyizinkulungwane ezingamatshumi amathathu lasithupha,
45 mfurum Mpem aduasa ne ahannum ne
obabhemi abazinkulungwane ezingamatshumi amathathu lamakhulu amahlanu
46 mmeawa mpem dunsia.
kanye labantu abazinkulungwane ezilitshumi lasithupha.
47 Nnipa no kyɛfa a wonyae no, Mose yiyii nnommum ne mmoa aduonum biara mu baako de maa Lewifo a wɔhwɛ Awurade Ahyiae Ntamadan so no. Wɔyɛɛ eyi nyinaa sɛnea Awurade hyɛɛ Mose no.
Engxenyeni yesabelo sabako-Israyeli, uMosi waqambula okukodwa ematshumini amahlanu abantu lasezifuyweni, njengokulaywa kwakhe nguThixo, njalo wakuqhubela abaLevi, bona ababelomlandu wokunakekela ithabanikeli likaThixo.
48 Afei, asraafo no so mpanyimfo baa Mose nkyɛn
Ngakho izikhulu ezaziphethe izigaba zebutho, abalawuli bamaxuku azinkulungwane kanye labalawuli bamaxuku angamakhulu baya kuMosi
49 bɛka kyerɛɛ no se, “Yɛabu nnipa a yɛde wɔn kɔɔ ɔko no nyinaa ano akyerɛ wo na ɔbaako koraa anyera.
bafika bathi kuye, “Izinceku zakho seziwabalile amabutho eziwalawulayo, akukho lelilodwa ibutho elingekho.
50 Ɛno nti, yefi nea yenyaa no ɔko no mu no bi mu rebɛda Awurade ase. Yɛn asedade no yɛ sika nnwinne, nkapo, nkaa, asokaa ne kɔnmuade. Eyinom bɛyɛ mpata ama yɛn kra wɔ Awurade anim.”
Ngakho sesilethe njengomnikelo kuThixo izinto zegolide esizitholileyo munye ngamunye, izigqizo, amasongo, izindandatho, amacici kanye lezigqizo zentanyeni, ukuzenzela indlela yokubuyisana phambi kukaThixo.”
51 Mose ne ɔsɔfo Eleasar gyee saa akyɛde yi a ɛyɛ sikakɔkɔɔ ne nnwinne no fii asraafo mpanyimfo no nkyɛn.
UMosi lo-Eliyazari umphristi bemukela igolide elalivela kubo, konke lokho kungokubaziweyo.
52 Ne nyinaa mu sikakɔkɔɔ a asahene no de bae sɛ akyɛde a wɔde rebrɛ Awurade no ano si nkaribo kilogram ɔha ne aduɔkron.
Lonke igolide elalethwa ngabalawuli emunye elawula amaxuku azinkulungwane labalawuli emunye elawula ikhulu lelo uMosi lo-Eliyazari abalethula njengesipho kuThixo lalilesisindo samashekeli azinkulungwane ezilitshumi lesithupha, lamakhulu ayisikhombisa alamatshumi amahlanu.
53 Na asraafo no afa ɔko no mu nneɛma a wonyae no bi.
Ibutho ngalinye lazithumbela okwalo lalo.
54 Enti Mose ne Eleasar gyee akyɛde no fii asraafo mpanyimfo no hɔ, na wɔde sikakɔkɔɔ no baa Ahyiae Ntamadan no mu sɛ ɛnyɛ nkae ade mma Awurade sɛ Israelfo yɛ ne dea.
UMosi lo-Eliyazari umphristi bemukela igolide elalivela kubalawuli emunye elawula amaxuku azinkulungwane lakubalawuli emunye elawula amaxuku angamakhulu, balisa ethenteni lokuhlangana ukuze kube yisikhumbuzo kwabako-Israyeli phambi kukaThixo.
