Brojevi 25
1 Dok je Izrael boravio u Šitimu, narod se upusti u blud s Moapkama.
And Israel abode in Shittim; and the people began to play the harlot with the daughters of Moab:
2 One pozivahu narod na žrtvovanje svojim bogovima, a narod sudjelovaše u njihovim gozbama i klanjaše se njihovim bogovima.
for they called the people unto the sacrifices of their gods; and the people did eat, and bowed down to their gods.
3 Tako se Izrael osramoti s Baalom peorskim. I Jahve planu gnjevom na Izraela.
And Israel joined himself unto Baal-peor: and the anger of Jehovah was kindled against Israel.
4 “Pokupi sve narodne glavare”, reče Jahve Mojsiju. “Objesi ih Jahvi usred bijela dana da se Jahvin gnjev odvrati od Izraela.”
And Jehovah said unto Moses, Take all the chiefs of the people, and hang them up unto Jehovah before the sun, that the fierce anger of Jehovah may turn away from Israel.
5 Onda Mojsije rekne izraelskim sucima: “Neka svatko pobije one svoje ljude koji su se osramotili s Baalom peorskim.”
And Moses said unto the judges of Israel, Slay ye every one his men that have joined themselves unto Baal-peor.
6 Baš tada neki Izraelac dođe i dovede k svojoj braći jednu Midjanku naočigled Mojsija i naočigled sve izraelske zajednice koja zaplaka na ulazu u Šator sastanka.
And, behold, one of the children of Israel came and brought unto his brethren a Midianitish 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 Kad to opazi Pinhas, sin Eleazara, sina svećenika Arona, ustade ispred zajednice: uze koplje u ruku
And when Phinehas, the son of Eleazar, the son of Aaron the priest, saw it, he rose up from the midst of the congregation, and took a spear in his hand;
8 i pođe za Izraelcem u odaje i probode ih oboje, Izraelca i ženu; nju kroza slabine. Tako pomor Izraelaca prestade.
and 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 stayed from the children of Israel.
9 A onih koji su od pomora pomrli bilo je dvadeset i četiri tisuće.
And those that died by the plague were twenty and four thousand.
10 Jahve reče Mojsiju:
And Jehovah spake unto Moses, saying,
11 “Pinhas, sin Eleazara, sina svećenika Arona, odvratio je moj gnjev od Izraelaca, obuzet među njima mojim revnovanjem. Zato u svome revnovanju nisam istrijebio izraelskoga naroda.
Phinehas, the son of Eleazar, the son of Aaron the priest, hath turned my wrath away from the children of Israel, in that he was jealous with my jealousy among them, so that I consumed not the children of Israel in my jealousy.
12 Kaži mu dakle: 'S njime, evo, sklapam savez mira.
Wherefore say, Behold, I give unto him my covenant of peace:
13 Neka to bude za nj i njegove potomke poslije njega savez vječnoga svećeništva, jer je revnovao za svoga Boga i izvršio pomirenje za izraelski narod.'”
and it shall be unto him, and to his seed after him, the covenant of an everlasting priesthood; because he was jealous for his God, and made atonement for the children of Israel.
14 Ime Izraelcu koji je bio ubijen - onome što je ubijen s Midjankom - bijaše Zimri. Bio je sin Salua, glavara jedne od Šimunovih porodica.
Now the name of the man of Israel that was slain, who was slain with the Midianitish woman, was Zimri, the son of Salu, a prince of a fathers’ house among the Simeonites.
15 A ime ubijene žene Midjanke bijaše Kozbi. Bila je kći Surova. Sur je bio glavar jednog plemena, jedne porodice u Midjanu.
And the name of the Midianitish woman that was slain was Cozbi, the daughter of Zur; he was head of the people of a fathers’ house in Midian.
16 Jahve reče Mojsiju:
And Jehovah spake unto Moses, saying,
17 “Navali na Midjance i potuci ih,
Vex the Midianites, and smite them;
18 jer su i oni navaljivali na vas svojim lukavštinama kad su lukavo radili protiv vas u slučaju Peora i svoje sestre Kozbi, kćeri glavara midjanskoga, koja je zaglavila u vrijeme pomora nastalog zbog Peora.”
for they vex you with their wiles, wherewith they have beguiled you in the matter of Peor, and in the matter of Cozbi, the daughter of the prince of Midian, their sister, who was slain on the day of the plague in the matter of Peor.
