1 Nígbà tí àwọn Israẹli dúró ní Ṣittimu, àwọn ènìyàn sì bẹ̀rẹ̀ sí í ṣe àgbèrè pẹ̀lú àwọn ọmọbìnrin Moabu,
And Israel dwelleth in Shittim, and the people begin to go a-whoring unto daughters of Moab,
2 tí ó pè wọ́n sí ibi ẹbọ òrìṣà wọn. Àwọn ènìyàn náà jẹun wọ́n sì foríbalẹ̀ níwájú òrìṣà wọn.
and they call for the people to the sacrifices of their gods, and the people eat, and bow themselves to their gods,
3 Báyìí ni Israẹli ṣe darapọ̀ mọ́ wọn tí wọ́n sì jọ ń sin Baali-Peori. Ìbínú Olúwa sì ru sí wọn.
and Israel is joined to Baal-Peor, and the anger of Jehovah burneth against Israel.
4 Olúwa sọ fún Mose pé, “Mú gbogbo àwọn olórí àwọn ènìyàn wọ̀nyí, pa wọ́n kí o sì fi wọ́n kọ́ sórí igi ní gbangba nínú oòrùn níwájú Olúwa, kí ìbínú Olúwa lè kúrò ní ọ̀dọ̀ Israẹli.”
And Jehovah saith unto Moses, 'Take all the chiefs of the people, and hang them before Jehovah — over-against the sun; and the fierceness of the anger of Jehovah doth turn back from Israel.'
5 Mose sọ fún àwọn onídàájọ́ Israẹli, “Ẹnìkọ̀ọ̀kan yín gbọdọ̀ pa arákùnrin rẹ̀ èyí tí ó darapọ̀ ní fífi orí balẹ̀ fún Baali-Peori.”
And Moses saith unto the judges of Israel, 'Slay ye each his men who are joined to Baal-Peor.'
6 Nítòótọ́ ọ̀kan lára àwọn ọmọkùnrin Israẹli sì mú obìnrin Midiani wá síwájú ojú Mose àti gbogbo ìjọ ti Israẹli wọ́n sì ń sọkún ní àbáwọlé àgọ́ ìpàdé.
And lo, a man of the sons of Israel hath come, and bringeth in unto his brethren the Midianitess, before the eyes of Moses, and before the eyes of all the company of the sons of Israel, who are weeping at the opening of the tent of meeting;
7 Nígbà tí Finehasi, ọmọ Eleasari, ọmọ Aaroni, àlùfáà, rí èyí, ó fi ìjọ sílẹ̀, pẹ̀lú ọ̀kọ̀ ní ọwọ́ rẹ̀.
and Phinehas, son of Eleazar, son of Aaron, the priest, seeth, and riseth from the midst of the company, and taketh a javelin in his hand,
8 Ó sì tẹ̀lé arákùnrin Israẹli yìí lọ sínú àgọ́. Ó sì fi ọ̀kọ̀ gún àwọn méjèèjì ní àgúnyọ láti ara ọkùnrin Israẹli àti sí ara obìnrin náà. Nígbà náà ni àjàkálẹ̀-ààrùn lórí àwọn ọmọ Israẹli sì dúró;
and goeth in after the man of Israel unto the hollow place, and pierceth them both, the man of Israel and the woman — unto her belly, and the plague is restrained from the sons of Israel;
9 ṣùgbọ́n gbogbo àwọn tí ó kú nínú àjàkálẹ̀-ààrùn náà jẹ́ ẹgbàá méjìlá.
and the dead by the plague are four and twenty thousand.
10 Olúwa sì tún sọ fún Mose pé,
And Jehovah speaketh unto Moses, saying,
11 “Finehasi ọmọ Eleasari ọmọ Aaroni, àlùfáà, ti yí ìbínú mi padà kúrò lọ́dọ̀ àwọn ọmọ Israẹli, nítorí tí ó ní ìtara bí èmi náà ti ní ìtara fún iyì mi láàrín wọn, kí ó lè jẹ́ pé èmi ló pa wọ́n run nínú ìtara mi sí wọn.
'Phinehas, son of Eleazar, son of Aaron the priest, hath turned back My fury from the sons of Israel, by his being zealous with My zeal in their midst, and I have not consumed the sons of Israel in My zeal.
12 Nítorí náà sọ fún un pé èmi ṣe májẹ̀mú àlàáfíà mi pẹ̀lú rẹ̀.
'Therefore say, Lo, I am giving to him My covenant of peace,
13 Òun àti irú-ọmọ rẹ̀ yóò ní májẹ̀mú láéláé fún iṣẹ́ àlùfáà, nítorí pé ó ní ìtara fún Ọlọ́run rẹ̀ láti fi yẹ́ Ọlọ́run sí, ó sì ṣe ètùtù fún àwọn ọmọ Israẹli.”
and it hath been to him and to his seed after him a covenant of a priesthood age-during, because that he hath been zealous for his God, and doth make atonement for the sons of Israel.'
14 Orúkọ ọmọ Israẹli tí a pa pẹ̀lú obìnrin Midiani náà ni Simri, ọmọ Salu, olórí ilé kan nínú àwọn ọmọ Simeoni.
And the name of the man of Israel who is smitten, who hath been smitten with the Midianitess, [is] Zimri son of Salu, prince of the house of a father of the Simeonite;
15 Orúkọ ọmọbìnrin Midiani náà tí a pa ní Kosbi ọmọbìnrin Suri, tí ṣe olóyè àwọn ẹ̀yà kan nínú ìdílé kan ní Midiani.
and the name of the woman who is smitten, the Midianitess, [is] Cozbi daughter of Zur, head of a people — of the house of a father in Midian [is] he.
16 Olúwa sì tún sọ fún Mose pé,
And Jehovah speaketh unto Moses, saying,
17 “Ka àwọn ará Midiani sí ọ̀tá, kí o sì pa wọ́n,
'Distress the Midianites, and ye have smitten them,
18 nítorí pé wọ́n ṣe sí yín gẹ́gẹ́ bí ọ̀tá nígbà tí wọ́n tàn yín nípa ìṣẹ̀lẹ̀ Peori, àti arábìnrin wọn Kosbi ọmọbìnrin ìjòyè Midiani kan, obìnrin tí a pa nígbà tí àjàkálẹ̀-ààrùn ṣẹlẹ̀ nítorí Peori.”
for they are adversaries to you with their frauds, [with] which they have acted fraudulently to you, concerning the matter of Peor, and concerning the matter of Cozbi, daughter of a prince of Midian, their sister, who is smitten in the day of the plague for the matter of Peor.'
