< Numbers 25 >

1 And Israel abode in Shittim, and the people began to commit whoredom with the daughters of Moab:
E Israel deteve-se em Sittim, e o povo começou a fornicar com as filhas dos moabitas.
2 for they called the people unto the sacrifices of their gods; and the people did eat, and bowed down to their gods.
E convidaram o povo aos sacrificios dos seus deuses; e o povo comeu, e inclinou-se aos seus deuses.
3 And Israel joined himself unto Baal-peor: and the anger of the LORD was kindled against Israel.
Juntando-se pois Israel a Baalpeor, a ira do Senhor se accendeu contra Israel.
4 And the LORD said unto Moses, Take all the chiefs of the people, and hang them up unto the LORD before the sun, that the fierce anger of the LORD may turn away from Israel.
Disse o Senhor a Moysés: Toma todos os Cabeças do povo, e enforca-os ao Senhor diante do sol, e o ardor da ira do Senhor se retirará d'Israel.
5 And Moses said unto the judges of Israel, Slay ye every one his men that have joined themselves unto Baal-peor.
Então Moysés disse aos juizes d'Israel: Cada um mate os seus homens que se conjuntaram a Baalpeor.
6 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.
E eis que veiu um homem dos filhos de Israel, e trouxe a seus irmãos uma midianita aos olhos de Moysés, e aos olhos de toda a congregação dos filhos de Israel, chorando elles diante da tenda da congregação.
7 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;
Vendo isso Phineas, filho de Eleazar, o filho d'Aarão, sacerdote, se levantou do meio da congregação, e tomou uma lança na sua mão
8 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 belly. So the plague was stayed from the children of Israel.
E foi após do varão israelita até á tenda, e os atravessou a ambos, ao varão israelita e á mulher, pela sua barriga: então a praga cessou de sobre os filhos de Israel
9 And those that died by the plague were twenty and four thousand.
E os que morreram d'aquella praga foram vinte e quatro mil.
10 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
Então o Senhor fallou a Moysés, dizendo:
11 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.
Phineas, filho d'Eleazar, o filho d'Aarão sacerdote, desviou a minha ira de sobre os filhos de Israel, pois zelou o meu zelo no meio d'elles; que no meu zelo não consumi os filhos d'Israel.
12 Wherefore say, Behold, I give unto him my covenant of peace:
Portanto dize: Eis que lhe dou o meu concerto de paz,
13 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.
E elle, e a sua semente depois d'elle, terá o concerto do sacerdocio perpetuo; porquanto teve zelo pelo seu Deus, e fez propiciação pelos filhos d'Israel.
14 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.
E o nome do israelita morto, que foi morto com a midianita, era Zimri, filho de Salu, maioral da casa paterna dos simeonitas.
15 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.
E o nome da mulher midianita, morta, era Cosbi, filha de Zur, cabeça do povo da casa paterna entre os midianitas.
16 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
Fallou mais o Senhor a Moysés, dizendo:
17 Vex the Midianites, and smite them:
Affligireis os midianitas e os ferireis,
18 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, which was slain on the day of the plague in the matter of Peor.
Porque elles vos affligiram a vós outros com os seus enganos com que vos enganaram no negocio de Peor, e no negocio de Cosbi, filha do maioral dos midianitas, a irmã d'elles, que foi morta no dia da praga no negocio de Peor.
