< 4 Mose 31 >
1 Afei, Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Mose sɛ,
INkosi yasikhuluma kuMozisi isithi:
2 “Esiane sɛ Midianfoɔ daadaa mo de mo kɔɔ abosonsom mu no enti, tɔ wɔn so awere. Yei akyi no wɔbɛwu na wɔakɔ wɔn agyanom nkyɛn.”
Phindisela impindiselo yabantwana bakoIsrayeli kumaMidiyani; emva kwalokho ubuthelwe ebantwini bakini.
3 Mose ka kyerɛɛ nkurɔfoɔ no sɛ, “Monyi mmarima no mu bi na wɔnkɔ Awurade aweretɔ sa a ɔde tia Midianfoɔ no.
UMozisi wakhuluma ebantwini esithi: Abanye benu kabahlomele impi ukuze bamelane lamaMidiyani, benze impindiselo yeNkosi kumaMidiyani.
4 Momfa Israel abusua biara mu nnipa apem nkɔ ɔsa no.”
Thumelani empini abayinkulungwane kuleso lalesosizwe, kuzo zonke izizwe zakoIsrayeli.
5 Wɔyɛɛ saa nyaa mmarima mpem dumienu siesie wɔn maa ɔko no.
Kwasekunikelwa kuvela ezinkulungwaneni zakoIsrayeli inkulungwane ngesizwe, inkulungwane ezilitshumi lambili zihlomele impi.
6 Afei Mose ma wɔkɔeɛ, nnipa apem baako a wɔfiri abusuakuo biara mu. Ɔsɔfoɔ Eleasa babarima Pinehas na ɔdii wɔn anim kɔɔ ɔko no. Wɔrekɔ no, wɔde kronkronneɛ a ɛwɔ kronkronbea hɔ ne totorobɛnto a wɔbɛhyɛn akanyane akodɔm no kɔeɛ.
UMozisi wasezithumela empini, inkulungwane ngesizwe, zona loPhinehasi indodana kaEleyazare umpristi, ukuya empini, belempahla ezingcwele lempondo zokuhlaba umkhosi esandleni sakhe.
7 Na sɛdeɛ Awurade hyɛeɛ no, wɔkumm Midian mmarima nyinaa wɔ ɔko no mu.
Basebesilwa bemelene lamaMidiyani, njengokulaya kweNkosi kuMozisi, babulala bonke abesilisa.
8 Wɔn a wɔkumm wɔn no bi ne Midian ahemfo baanum a wɔn edin de Ewi, Rekem, Sur, Hur ne Reba. Beor babarima Balaam nso, wɔkumm no.
Babulala njalo amakhosi eMidiyani, ngaphandle kwababuleweyo, oEvi loRekemi loZuri loHuri loReba, amakhosi amahlanu eMidiyani; loBalami indodana kaBeyori bambulala ngenkemba.
9 Afei, Israel asraafoɔ no kyekyeree Midian mmaa ne mmɔfra nyinaa ne wɔn anantwie ne wɔn nnwan fom nneɛma pii kaa ho.
Abantwana bakoIsrayeli basebethumba abesifazana bamaMidiyani labantwanyana babo, baphanga inkomo zawo zonke, lezimvu zawo zonke, layo yonke inotho yawo.
10 Wɔtoo Midian nkuro ne nkuraa nyinaa mu ogya, hyee no pasaa.
Batshisa ngomlilo yonke imizi ayehlala kiyo, lazo zonke izinqaba zawo.
11 Wɔfaa asadeɛ ne afodeɛ a nnipa no ne mmoa ka ho.
Bathatha yonke impango lakho konke okuthunjiweyo, kwabantu lokwezifuyo,
12 Wɔde nneduafoɔ no ne ɔko no mu nneɛma a wɔnyaeɛ no nyinaa brɛɛ Mose, ɔsɔfoɔ Eleasa ne Israelfoɔ a na wɔabɔ wɔn atenaseɛ wɔ Moab bepɔ so baabi a na ɛbɛn Asubɔnten Yordan a wɔtwa firi Yeriko ba hɔ no.
baletha abathunjiweyo lempango lokuthunjiweyo kuMozisi lakuEleyazare umpristi, lakunhlangano yabantwana bakoIsrayeli, enkambeni emagcekeni akoMowabi, aseJordani eJeriko.
13 Mose ne ɔsɔfoɔ Eleasa ne mpanimfoɔ a wɔtuatua nnipa no ano no kɔhyiaa nkonimdifoɔ no ɛkwan.
UMozisi loEleyazare umpristi leziphathamandla zonke zenhlangano basebephuma ukubahlangabeza ngaphandle kwenkamba.
14 Nanso, Mose bo fuu mpanimfoɔ a wɔtuatua akodɔm no ano no.
UMozisi wasethukuthelela induna zebutho, induna zezinkulungwane lenduna zamakhulu ezazivela ebuthweni lempi.
15 Ɔbisaa wɔn sɛ, “Adɛn enti na moankunkum mmaa no?
UMozisi wasesithi kuzo: Liyekele yini abesifazana bonke ukuthi baphile?
16 Yeinom ara ne nnipa no a wɔtie Balaam enti wɔmaa Israelfoɔ gyaa Awurade kɔsom abosom wɔ bepɔ Peor so a enti ɛmaa ɔhaw ne abɛbrɛsɛ bebree baa yɛn so bɛsɛee yɛn no.
Khangelani, yilaba abenza abantwana bakoIsrayeli, ngeseluleko sikaBalami, ukuthi benze isiphambeko eNkosini endabeni yePeyori, kwaze kwaba lenhlupheko phakathi kwenhlangano yeNkosi.
17 Monkunkum mmarimaa no nyinaa. Afei, monkunkum mmaa a wɔne mmarima adeda no nyinaa.
Ngakho-ke bulalani wonke owesilisa ebantwanyaneni, libulale wonke owesifazana owazi indoda ngokulala lendoda;
18 Mommfa mo nsa nka mmaayewa nketewa no. Wɔn deɛ, momfa wɔn na mo ne wɔn nkɔtena.
kodwa bonke abantwanyana abesifazana abangazanga indoda ngokulala layo, libayekele baphile, babe ngabenu.
19 “Afei, momfiri atenaeɛ ha nkɔtena baabi nnanson, ɛfiri sɛ, mo nyinaa moakum nnipa anaa mode mo nsa aka efunu. Monnwira mo ho ne mo nneduafoɔ ne nnansa ne ne nnanson so.
Lina-ke, misani inkamba ngaphandle kwenkamba insuku eziyisikhombisa, loba ngubani obulele umuntu, laloba ngubani othinte obuleweyo, lizihlambulule lina labathunjiweyo benu ngosuku lwesithathu langosuku lwesikhombisa,
20 Monkae na monnwira mo ntadeɛ ne biribiara a wɔde aboa nwoma, abirekyie nwi anaa dua ayɛ.”
lihlambulule sonke isembatho, layo yonke into eyenziweyo ngesikhumba, lakho konke okwenziweyo ngoboya bembuzi, layo yonke into eyenziweyo ngesihlahla.
21 Afei, ɔsɔfoɔ Eleasa ka kyerɛɛ mmarima a wɔkɔɔ ɔko no sɛ, “Yei ne mmara a Awurade ahyɛ a waka akyerɛ Mose.
UEleyazare umpristi wasesithi kumadoda empi ayephume impi: Lesi yisimiso somlayo iNkosi emlaye ngaso uMozisi:
22 Biribiara a ɛtumi gyinaa ogya ano te sɛ sikakɔkɔɔ, dwetɛ, kɔbere, dadeɛ, sanya anaa sumpii no,
Kuphela igolide, lesiliva, ithusi, insimbi, ithini, lomnuso,
23 ɛsɛ sɛ wɔde ka ogya sɛdeɛ ɛho bɛte. Yei akyi, ɛsɛ sɛ wɔde ahodwira nsuo dwira ho ma ɛho te. Nanso, biribiara a ɛrentumi nnyina ogya ano no deɛ, wɔmfa nsuo nnwira ho.
yonke into engahlala emlilweni lizayidlulisa emlilweni, ihlambuluke; loba kunjalo izahlanjululwa ngamanzi okwehlukanisa. Lakho konke okungahlali emlilweni lizakudlulisa emanzini.
24 Nnanson so, ɛsɛ sɛ mosi mo ntadeɛ na modwira mo ho ansa na moasane aba atenaeɛ hɔ.”
Njalo lizahlamba izembatho zenu ngosuku lwesikhombisa, lihlambuluke, lemva kwalokho lingene enkambeni.
25 Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Mose sɛ,
INkosi yasikhuluma kuMozisi isithi:
26 “Ɛsɛ sɛ wo ne ɔsɔfoɔ Eleasa ne mmusua no mpanimfoɔ nyinaa twerɛ afodeɛ a nnipa ne mmoa ka ho a monyaa no ɔko no mu.
Thatha inani lonke lempango lokuthunjiweyo, okwabantu lokwezifuyo, wena, loEleyazare umpristi, lenhloko zaboyise zenhlangano;
27 Afei, monkyɛ afodeɛ no mu mmienu. Momfa ɛfa mma mmarima a wɔkɔɔ ɔko no na momfa ɛfa a aka no mma nnipa a aka no.
yehlukanisa impango ibe zingxenye ezimbili, phakathi kwabahlanganyela empini baphuma impi lenhlangano yonke.
28 Nanso, deɛ ɛdi ɛkan no, ɛsɛ sɛ Awurade nya kyɛfa a ɛyɛ nneduafoɔ, anantwie, mfunumu, ne nnwan a ɛfiri akofoɔ no kyɛfa mu. Awurade kyɛfa no bɛyɛ ahanum biara mu baako.
Njalo thelisela iNkosi umthelo emadodeni empi ayephumele impi, umphefumulo owodwa phakathi kwamakhulu amahlanu, owabantu, lowenkomo, lowabobabhemi, lowezimvu,
29 Fa saa kyɛfa yi ma ɔsɔfoɔ Eleasa na ɔnhim no afɔrebukyia no anim mfa mma Awurade.
likuthathe kungxenye yawo eyodwa kwezimbili, njalo ukunike uEleyazare umpristi kube ngumnikelo wokuphakanyiswa weNkosi.
30 Afei Israelfoɔ a wɔaka no kyɛfa no, monyi aduonum biara mu baako. Momfa yei mma Lewifoɔ a wɔhwɛ Awurade Ahyiaeɛ Ntomadan no so no.”
Lengxenyeni eyodwa kwezimbili yabantwana bakoIsrayeli thatha isabelo esisodwa kwezingamatshumi amahlanu, esabantu, esezinkomo, esabobabhemi, lesezimvu, kuso sonke isifuyo, ukunike amaLevi alondoloza imfanelo yethabhanekele leNkosi.
31 Enti, Mose ne ɔsɔfoɔ Eleasa yɛɛ deɛ Awurade hyɛɛ wɔn sɛ wɔnyɛ no.
UMozisi loEleyazare umpristi basebesenza njengokulaya kweNkosi kuMozisi.
32 Afodeɛ a ɛkaeɛ a akofoɔ no faeɛ no dodoɔ yɛ nnwan mpem ahansia aduɔson enum;
Lempango eyayisele lokuthunjiweyo abantu bempi abakuthumbayo yayiyizimvu ezizinkulungwane ezingamakhulu ayisithupha lamatshumi ayisikhombisa lanhlanu,
33 anantwie mpem aduɔson mmienu;
lenkomo ezizinkulungwane ezingamatshumi ayisikhombisa lambili,
34 mfunumu mpem aduosia baako;
labobabhemi abazinkulungwane ezingamatshumi ayisithupha lanye,
35 ne mmaayewa mpem aduasa mmienu.
lemiphefumulo yabantu besifazana abangazanga ukulala lendoda, bonke abantu babeyizinkulungwane ezingamatshumi amathathu lambili.
36 Nneɛma no fa a wɔde maa asraafoɔ no dodoɔ nie: Nnwan mpem ahasa aduasa nson ne ahanum
Lengxenye, isabelo sababephumele impi, ngenani, yayiyizimvu ezizinkulungwane ezingamakhulu amathathu lamatshumi amathathu lesikhombisa lamakhulu amahlanu;
37 a wɔde mu ahansia aduɔson enum maa Awurade;
lomthelo eNkosini wezimvu wawungamakhulu ayisithupha lamatshumi ayisikhombisa lanhlanu.
38 Anantwie mpem aduasa nsia a wɔde mu aduɔson mmienu maa Awurade;
Lenkomo zazizinkulungwane ezingamatshumi amathathu lesithupha; lomthelo wazo eNkosini wawungamatshumi ayisikhombisa lambili.
39 mfunumu mpem aduasa ne ahanum a emu aduosia baako yɛ Awurade kyɛfa;
Labobabhemi babeyizinkulungwane ezingamatshumi amathathu lamakhulu amahlanu; lomthelo wabo eNkosini wawungamatshumi ayisithupha lanye.
40 mmaayewa mpem dunsia; wɔde wɔn mu aduasa mmienu maa Awurade.
Lemiphefumulo yabantu yayizinkulungwane ezilitshumi lesithupha; lomthelo wayo eNkosini wawungabantu abangamatshumi amathathu lambili.
41 Wɔde Awurade kyɛfa no nyinaa maa ɔsɔfoɔ Eleasa sɛdeɛ Awurade kyerɛɛ Mose sɛ ɔnyɛ no ara pɛ.
UMozisi wasenika umthelo, umnikelo wokuphakanyiswa weNkosi, kuEleyazare umpristi, njengalokho iNkosi yamlaya uMozisi.
42 Afodeɛ no a Israelfoɔ no nyaa no na ɛdidi soɔ yi:
Lokwengxenye yabantwana bakoIsrayeli, uMozisi ayehlukanise ivela emadodeni ayelwe impi.
43 nnwan mpem ahasa aduasa nson ne ahanum,
Lengxenye engeyenhlangano, eyezimvu, yayizinkulungwane ezingamakhulu amathathu lamatshumi amathathu lesikhombisa lamakhulu amahlanu,
44 anantwie mpem aduasa nsia,
lenkomo ezizinkulungwane ezingamatshumi amathathu lesithupha,
45 mfunumu Mpem aduasa ne ahanum ne
labobabhemi abazinkulungwane ezingamatshumi amathathu lamakhulu amahlanu,
lemiphefumulo yabantu abayizinkulungwane ezilitshumi lesithupha.
47 Nnipa no kyɛfa a wɔnyaeɛ no, Mose yiyii nneduafoɔ ne mmoa aduonum biara mu baako de maa Lewifoɔ a wɔhwɛ Awurade Ahyiaeɛ Ntomadan so no. Wɔyɛɛ yei nyinaa sɛdeɛ Awurade hyɛɛ Mose no.
Lakuyo ingxenye yabantwana bakoIsrayeli uMozisi wathatha isabelo esisodwa kwezingatshumini amahlanu, esabantu lesezifuyo, wakunika amaLevi ayelondoloza imfanelo yethabhanekele leNkosi, njengokulaya kweNkosi kuMozisi.
48 Afei, asraafoɔ mpanimfoɔ baa Mose nkyɛn bɛka kyerɛɛ no sɛ,
Iziphathamandla ezaziphezu kwezinkulungwane zebutho, izinduna zezinkulungwane lezinduna zamakhulu, zasezisondela kuMozisi,
49 “Owura yɛabu nnipa a yɛde wɔn kɔɔ ɔko no nyinaa ano akyerɛ wo na yɛn mu baako koraa anyera.
zathi kuMozisi: Izinceku zakho sezithethe inani lonke lamadoda empi ayengaphansi kwesandla sethu; njalo kakulamuntu ongekho kithi.
50 Ɛno enti, yɛfiri deɛ yɛnyaa no ɔko no mu no bi mu rebɛda Awurade ase. Yɛn asedadeɛ no yɛ sika adwinneɛ, nkapo, nkawa, nsonkawa ne kɔnmuadeɛ. Yeinom bɛyɛ mpatadeɛ ama yɛn kra wɔ Awurade anim.”
Ngakho silethile umnikelo weNkosi, ngulowo lalowo awutholileyo, izinto zegolide, izigqizo, lamasongo, izindandatho, amacici, lezigqizo zentanyeni, ukwenzela imiphefumulo yethu inhlawulo yokuthula phambi kweNkosi.
51 Mose ne ɔsɔfoɔ Eleasa gyee saa akyɛdeɛ yi a ɛyɛ sikakɔkɔɔ ne adwinneɛ firii asraafoɔ mpanimfoɔ no nkyɛn.
UMozisi loEleyazare umpristi basebesemukela igolide kuzo, zonke izinto ezenziwe ngobungcitshi.
52 Ne nyinaa mu sikakɔkɔɔ a asahene no de baeɛ sɛ akyɛdeɛ a wɔde rebrɛ Awurade no ano si nkariboɔ kilogram ɔha ne aduɔkron.
Lalo lonke igolide lomnikelo abalinikela eNkosini, livela ezinduneni zezinkulungwane lezinduneni zamakhulu lalingamashekeli azinkulungwane ezilitshumi lesithupha lamakhulu ayisikhombisa lamatshumi amahlanu.
53 Na asraafoɔ no afa ɔko no mu nneɛma a wɔnyaeɛ no bi.
Amadoda empi ayethethe impango, yileyo laleyo engeyayo.
54 Enti Mose ne Eleasa gyee akyɛdeɛ no firii asraafoɔ mpanimfoɔ no hɔ, na wɔde sikakɔkɔɔ no baa Ahyiaeɛ Ntomadan no mu sɛ ɛnyɛ nkaeɛ adeɛ mma Awurade sɛ Israelfoɔ yɛ ne dea.
UMozisi loEleyazare umpristi basebesemukela igolide enduneni zezinkulungwane lezamakhulu, baliletha ethenteni lenhlangano, kube yisikhumbuzo kubantwana bakoIsrayeli phambi kweNkosi.
