1 Ke mwet Israel elos aktuktuk ke Infahlfal Acacia, kutu sin mukul Israel mutawauk in orek kosro yurin mutan Moab su muta we.
Israel stayed in Shittim; and the people began to play the prostitute with the daughters of Moab;
2 Mutan inge suli mukul uh nu ke kufwen akfulatye god lun mwet Moab. Mwet Israel elos kang mwe mongo ma kisakinyukla ac wi alu nu ke god se pangpang
for they called the people to the sacrifices of their gods. The people ate and bowed down to their gods.
3 Baal lun Peor. Ouinge LEUM GOD El kasrkusrak selos
Israel joined himself to Baal Peor, and the LORD’s anger burnt against Israel.
4 ac fahk nu sel Moses, “Kom in akosyu in lumah se inge: eis mwet kol nukewa lun mwet Israel ac fakselosi yen mwet nukewa ku in liye, na nga fah tila kasrkusrak sin mwet uh.”
The LORD said to Moses, “Take all the chiefs of the people, and hang them up to the LORD before the sun, that the fierce anger of the LORD may turn away from Israel.”
5 Moses el fahk nu sin mwet kol fulat lun sruf uh, “Kais sie suwos in uniya mwet nukewa in sruf lowos ma wela alu nu sin Baal lun Peor.”
Moses said to the judges of Israel, “Everyone kill his men who have joined themselves to Baal Peor.”
6 Sie sin mwet Israel uh eis sie sin mutan Midian ac usalak nu in lohm nuknuk sel ye mutal Moses ac mwet Israel nukewa ke pacl se elos muta mwemelil ke nien utyak nu in Lohm Nuknuk Mutal sin LEUM GOD.
Behold, one of the children of Israel came and brought to his brothers a Midianite woman in the sight of Moses, and in the sight of all the congregation of the children of Israel, while they were weeping at the door of the Tent of Meeting.
7 Ke Phinehas, wen natul Eleazar, wen natul Aaron mwet tol, el liye ma inge, el tuyak ac som liki u sac. El srukak osra in fakfuk soko,
When Phinehas, the son of Eleazar, the son of Aaron the priest, saw it, he rose up from the middle of the congregation, and took a spear in his hand.
8 na el fahsr tukun mukul sac ac mutan sac nu in lohm nuknuk sac, ac kaskeang nu kacltal kewa. In ouiya se inge mas upa se ma arulana akkolukye Israel uh tui,
He went after the man of Israel into the pavilion, and thrust both of them through, the man of Israel, and the woman through her body. So the plague was stopped amongst the children of Israel.
9 tusruktu mas se inge uniya tari tausin longoul akosr sin mwet Israel.
Those who died by the plague were twenty-four thousand.
10 LEUM GOD El fahk nu sel Moses,
The LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
11 “Ke sripen ma se Phinehas el orala uh, nga tila mulat sin mwet Israel. El koflana muteng in liye ke mwet uh alu nu sin kutena god sayuk, na pa ingan sripa se oru nga tia kunauselosla ke kasrkusrak luk uh.
“Phinehas, the son of Eleazar, the son of Aaron the priest, has turned my wrath away from the children of Israel, in that he was jealous with my jealousy amongst them, so that I didn’t consume the children of Israel in my jealousy.
12 Ke ma inge kom fahkang nu sel lah nga ac orala sie wuleang inmasrlok el su fah oanna nwe tok.
Therefore say, ‘Behold, I give to him my covenant of peace.
13 El, ac fwilin tulik natul, ac fah mwet tol nwe tok. Ke sripen el ngalkinyu, pa oru nga nunak munas ke ma koluk lun mwet uh.”
It shall be to him, and to his offspring after him, the covenant of an everlasting priesthood, because he was jealous for his God, and made atonement for the children of Israel.’”
14 Inen mukul Israel se su anwuki wi mutan Midian sac pa Zimri wen natul Salu. Zimri el sifen sie sou lulap in sruf lal Simeon.
Now the name of the man of Israel that was slain, who was slain with the Midianite woman, was Zimri, the son of Salu, a prince of a fathers’ house amongst the Simeonites.
15 Inen mutan sac pa Cozbi, acn natul Zur, su pa leum lun sie u lun sou lulap in acn Midian.
The name of the Midianite woman who was slain was Cozbi, the daughter of Zur. He was head of the people of a fathers’ house in Midian.
16 Na LEUM GOD El sapkin nu sel Moses,
The LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
17 “Tuyak ac mweuni mwet Midian ac kunauselosla,
“Harass the Midianites, and strike them;
18 ke sripen ma koluk elos oru nu suwos ke elos tuh kiapwekowosla in acn Peor — ac ke sripal Cozbi, su tuh anwuki ke pacl se mas upa sac sikyak in acn Peor.”
for they harassed you with their wiles, wherein they have deceived you in the matter of Peor, and in the incident regarding Cozbi, the daughter of the prince of Midian, their sister, who was slain on the day of the plague in the matter of Peor.”
