4 Mose 25
1 Ɛberɛ a Israelfoɔ bɔɔ atenaseɛ wɔ Sitim no, wɔn mu mmarima no bi hyɛɛ aseɛ ne Moab mmabaawa no bɔɔ adwaman de guu wɔn ho fi.
Mgbe Izrel bi na Shitim, ndị ikom ha malitere isoro ndị inyom Moab na-akwa iko.
2 Saa mmabaawa yi too nsa frɛɛ wɔn sɛ wɔmmra wɔn afɔdeɛ a wɔbɔ ma wɔn anyame no ase. Ankyɛre biara, mmarima no kɔɔ wɔn apontoɔ ase na wɔsomm Moab anyame.
Ndị inyom a kpọrọ ha ka ha bịa soro na mmemme ịchụ aja nye chi ha niile. Ndị Izrel riri nri ihe aja ahụ, kpọọkwa isiala nye chi ndị a niile.
3 Ɛberɛ tiawa bi akyi, Israelfoɔ no nyinaa kɔsom Baal-peor a ɔyɛ Moabfoɔ nyame. Yei maa Awurade bo fuu ne nkurɔfoɔ no yie.
Ya mere, ndị Izrel sonyere na-akpọ isiala nye chi Baal nke Peoa. Nke a mere ka iwe Onyenwe anyị nwuru ọkụ megide ha.
4 Ɔhyɛɛ saa mmara yi maa Mose sɛ, “Kunkum mpanimfoɔ a wɔtuatua Israel mmusuakuo no ano no nyinaa. Sɛn wɔn wɔ Awurade anim awia ketee sɛdeɛ ɛbɛyɛ a, nʼabufuo a ano yɛ den no bɛfiri wɔn so.”
Onyenwe anyị gwara Mosis okwu sị ya, “Duru ndị ndu ebo niile nke Izrel gbuo ha ma kwụnye ha nʼosisi nʼihu Onyenwe anyị nʼetiti ehihie, ka oke iwe Onyenwe anyị dị ọkụ ghara ịbịakwasị ndị Izrel.”
5 Enti, Mose hyɛɛ atemmufoɔ no ma wɔkunkumm wɔn a wɔsomm Baal-peor no nyinaa.
Ya mere, Mosis sịrị ndị ọkaikpe Izrel, “Onye ọbụla nʼime unu aghaghị igbu ndị unu, bụ ndị jikọtara onwe ha na Baal nke Peoa.”
6 Nanso, Israelni ɔhantanni bi de Midiani ababaawa bi baa wɔn atenaeɛ hɔ maa Mose ne nnipa no nyinaa hunuu no ɛberɛ a na wɔn nyinaa gyina Ahyiaeɛ Ntomadan no ɛpono akyi retwa adwo no.
Mgbe ahụ, otu nwoke onye Izrel kpọbatara nʼime ụlọ ikwu otu nwanyị onye Midia, nʼihu Mosis na nzukọ Izrel niile, mgbe ha niile nọ na-akwa akwa nʼọnụ ụzọ ụlọ nzute ahụ.
7 Ɛberɛ a Pinehas a ɔyɛ Eleasa babarima a na ɔyɛ ɔsɔfoɔ Aaron nana hunuu yei no, ɔhuri sɔɔ pea mu
Mgbe Finehaz na Elieza, nwa Erọn, onye nchụaja hụrụ ihe a, ọ hapụrụ ọgbakọ Izrel. O were ùbe nʼaka ya,
8 taa saa ɔbarima no so de no kɔwuraa ne ntomadan mu baabi a ɔfaa ɔbaa no. Ɔde pea no wowɔɔ ɔbarima no sane de wɔɔ ɔbaa no yafunu mu. Enti, ɔhaw no to twaa wɔ Israelfoɔ no mu,
soro nwoke ahụ baa nʼime ụlọ, ebe ya na nwaagbọghọ ahụ dina. Ọ mara ha ùbe ahụ, nke si nʼahụ nwoke ahụ gafee mikpuo nʼafọ nwaagbọghọ ahụ. Nke a mere ka ihe otiti ahụ na-emegide ndị Izrel kwụsị.
9 nanso ɛkɔsi saa ɛberɛ no, na nnipa mpem aduonu ɛnan awuwu dada.
Ma tupu ihe otiti ahụ akwụsị, ndị mmadụ ọnụọgụgụ ha ruru iri puku abụọ na anọ anwụọlarị.
10 Afei, Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Mose sɛ,
Onyenwe anyị gwara Mosis okwu sị,
11 “Eleasa babarima Pinehas a ɔyɛ ɔsɔfoɔ Aaron nana adwodwo mʼabufuo ano, ɛfiri sɛ, ɔbɔɔ mmɔden te sɛ me ara wɔ mʼanimuonyam ho, enti sɛdeɛ meyɛɛ mʼadwene sɛ mɛsɛe Israelfoɔ nyinaa no, magyae.
“Finehaz nwa Elieza, nwa Erọn, onye nchụaja, emeela ka iwe m megide Izrel dajụọ. Nʼihi na o nwere ịnụ ọkụ nʼobi dịka mụ onwe m banyere idebe nsọpụrụ m nsọ nʼetiti ha, ka m ghara isite nʼịnụ ọkụ nke obi m bibie ha.
12 Enti ka kyerɛ no sɛ, me ne no rebɛyɛ asomdwoeɛ apam.
Ya mere, gwa ya, na m na-eme ka ọgbụgba ndụ udo m dịrị ya.
13 Saa apam yi mu, ɔno ne nʼasefoɔ bɛyɛ asɔfoɔ afebɔɔ, ɛfiri sɛ watwe me, ne Onyankopɔn, ho ninkunu wɔ Israelfoɔ mu de ayɛ mpata ama wɔn.”
Ya na ụmụ ụmụ ya ka ọgbụgba ndụ ebighị ebi nke ịrụ ọrụ nchụaja ga-adịrị, nʼihi na o nwere ịnụ ọkụ nʼobi banyere nsọpụrụ nke Chineke ya, si otu a chụọrọ ndị Izrel aja ikpuchi mmehie.”
14 Ɔbarima a wɔkumm no ne Midiani ababaawa no, na ne din de Simri a na ɔyɛ Salu a ɔtua Simeon abusuakuo ano no babarima.
Aha nwoke Izrel ahụ e gburu ya na nwanyị onye Midia ahụ bụ Zimri, nwa Salu, onyendu otu ezinaụlọ nʼebo Simiọn.
15 Ɔbaa no nso, na ne din de Kosbi a na ɔyɛ Midianhene babarima Sur babaa.
Aha nwanyị Midia ahụ e gburu bụ Kozbi, nwa nwanyị Zua, onye bụ otu nʼime ndịisi ezinaụlọ na Midia.
16 Afei, Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Mose sɛ,
Onyenwe anyị gwara Mosis okwu sị ya,
17 “To hyɛ Midianfoɔ no so na sɛe wɔn,
“Mesoo ndị Midia mmeso dịka ndị iro. Gbukwaa ha.
18 ɛfiri sɛ, wɔfaa mo sɛ atamfoɔ, na wɔdaadaa mo ma mosomm Baal-peor, ne Kosbi a ɔyɛ Midian ntuanoni babaa a wɔkumm no wɔ Peor ɔyaredɔm ɛda no.”
Nʼihi na ha mesoro unu mmeso dịka ndị iro mgbe ha ji ụzọ aghụghọ ghọgbuo unu nʼokwu Peoa, na nʼokwu Kozbi nwanne ha nwanyị, bụ nwa nwanyị otu nʼime ndịisi Midia, onye e gburu mgbe ihe otiti ahụ bịara nʼihi okwu Peoa.”
