Resansman 31
1 Seyè a pale ak Mwiz, li di l' konsa:
The LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
2 -Ou pral pini moun Madyan yo pou sa yo fè moun pèp Izrayèl yo pase. Apre sa, ou pral mouri pou ou al jwenn moun pa ou yo ki mouri deja.
“Avenge the children of Israel on the Midianites. Afterward you shall be gathered to your people.”
3 Se konsa, Moyiz pale ak pèp la, li di yo konsa: -Pare kèk gason nan mitan nou pou y' al goumen, pou yo mache pran moun Madyan yo, fè yo peye sa yo fè Seyè a.
Moses spoke to the people, saying, “Arm men from amongst you for war, that they may go against Midian, to execute the LORD’s vengeance on Midian.
4 N'a pran mil gason nan chak branch fanmi pèp Izrayèl la pou n' voye al goumen.
You shall send one thousand out of every tribe, throughout all the tribes of Israel, to the war.”
5 Se konsa nan tout kantite gason ki nan pèp Izrayèl la, yo pran mil gason nan chak branch fanmi. Sa te bay douzmil (12.000) gason antou ki te pare pou al goumen.
So there were delivered, out of the thousands of Israel, a thousand from every tribe, twelve thousand armed for war.
6 Moyiz voye douzmil gason sa yo al fè lagè. Li voye ak yo Fineas, pitit gason Eleaza, prèt la, ki t'ap pote veso Bondye yo ak twonpèt pou bay siyal yo.
Moses sent them, one thousand of every tribe, to the war with Phinehas the son of Eleazar the priest, to the war, with the vessels of the sanctuary and the shofars for the alarm in his hand.
7 Yo atake moun Madyan yo jan Seyè a te bay Moyiz lòd la, yo touye tout gason yo.
They fought against Midian, as the LORD commanded Moses. They killed every male.
8 Yo touye senk wa moun Madyan yo: Evi, Rekèm, Zou, Our ak Reba. Yo touye Balaram, pitit Beyò a, tou.
They killed the kings of Midian with the rest of their slain: Evi, Rekem, Zur, Hur, and Reba, the five kings of Midian. They also killed Balaam the son of Beor with the sword.
9 Moun Izrayèl yo fè tout fanm ak tout timoun Madyan yo prizonye. Yo pase men yo pran tout bèf yo, tout mouton yo, tout kabrit yo ak tout lòt byen yo.
The children of Israel took the women of Midian captive with their little ones; and all their livestock, all their flocks, and all their goods, they took as plunder.
10 Yo boule tout kay nan lavil yo ak tout kan kote moun yo te rete.
All their cities in the places in which they lived, and all their encampments, they burnt with fire.
11 Apre sa, yo pran tou sa yo te ranmase, tout bèt ak tout moun yo te fè prizonye yo,
They took all the captives, and all the plunder, both of man and of animal.
12 yo mennen yo bay Moyiz ansanm ak Eleaza, prèt la, ak tout moun pèp Izrayèl yo ki te nan kan an, nan plenn Moab yo, lòt bò larivyè Jouden, anfas lavil Jeriko.
They brought the captives with the prey and the plunder, to Moses, and to Eleazar the priest, and to the congregation of the children of Israel, to the camp at the plains of Moab, which are by the Jordan at Jericho.
13 Moyiz, Eleaza, prèt la ak tout chèf pèp Izrayèl yo soti nan kan an al kontre lame a.
Moses and Eleazar the priest, with all the princes of the congregation, went out to meet them outside of the camp.
14 Moyiz move sou chèf reskonsab lame yo, sou chèf divizyon mil yo ak chèf konpayi san yo ki t'ap tounen soti nan lagè a.
Moses was angry with the officers of the army, the captains of thousands and the captains of hundreds, who came from the service of the war.
15 Li di yo konsa: -Poukisa nou pa touye tout medam sa yo?
Moses said to them, “Have you saved all the women alive?
16 Se yo menm ki te swiv konsèy Balaram yo, se yo ki te lakòz moun pèp Izrayèl yo te vire do bay Bondye nan zafè Baal-Peyò a, kifè gwo malè nou konnen an te tonbe sou pèp Izrayèl la.
Behold, these caused the children of Israel, through the counsel of Balaam, to commit trespass against the LORD in the matter of Peor, and so the plague was amongst the congregation of the LORD.
17 Se pou nou touye tout pitit gason yo. Se pou nou touye tout fanm ki kouche ak gason deja.
Now therefore kill every male amongst the little ones, and kill every woman who has known man by lying with him.
18 Men, n'a sove lavi tout jenn fi ki poko janm kouche ak gason. N'a pran yo pou nou.
But all the girls, who have not known man by lying with him, keep alive for yourselves.
19 Men, nou menm ki touye moun osinon ki manyen kadav moun mouri, nou pral rete sèt jou andeyò limit kan an. Sou twazyèm jou a ak sou setyèm jou a n'a fè sèvis pou mete nou nan kondisyon, nou menm ak tout prizonye nou yo, pou nou ka fè sèvis Bondye.
“Encamp outside of the camp for seven days. Whoever has killed any person, and whoever has touched any slain, purify yourselves on the third day and on the seventh day, you and your captives.
20 N'a fè sèvis pou mete tout rad ak tout bagay ki fèt ak po bèt, bagay ki fèt ak pwal kabrit, bagay ki fèt an bwa, nan kondisyon pou moun k'ap sèvi Bondye ka sèvi ak yo.
You shall purify every garment, and all that is made of skin, and all work of goats’ hair, and all things made of wood.”
21 Eleaza, prèt la, pale ak mesye ki te tounen soti nan lagè yo. Li di yo konsa: -Men yon regleman nou jwenn nan lòd Seyè a te bay Moyiz.
Eleazar the priest said to the men of war who went to the battle, “This is the statute of the law which the LORD has commanded Moses.
22 Tout moso lò, tout moso ajan, tout bout fè, tout moso kwiv, tout moso plon,
However the gold, and the silver, the bronze, the iron, the tin, and the lead,
23 tou sa ki pa ka boule nan dife, n'a pase yo nan dife pou yo ka nan kondisyon sèvi pou moun k'ap sèvi Bondye. Men tou sa ki ka boule nan dife, se nan dlo yo mete apa pou sa a n'a pase yo pou yo ka nan kondisyon sèvi pou moun k'ap sèvi Bondye.
everything that may withstand the fire, you shall make to go through the fire, and it shall be clean; nevertheless it shall be purified with the water for impurity. All that doesn’t withstand the fire you shall make to go through the water.
24 Sou setyèm jou a, n'a lave rad ki sou nou yo. Konsa n'a nan kondisyon pou nou fè sèvis Bondye. Se lè sa a n'a ka antre nan kan an.
You shall wash your clothes on the seventh day, and you shall be clean. Afterward you shall come into the camp.”
25 Seyè a pale ak Moyiz, li di l' konsa:
The LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
26 -Ou menm, Moyiz ak Eleaza, prèt la, ansanm ak tout lòt chèf pèp Izrayèl yo, n'a konte tou sa lame a te ranmase nan lagè a, san bliye bèt yo ak prizonye yo.
“Count the plunder that was taken, both of man and of animal, you, and Eleazar the priest, and the heads of the fathers’ households of the congregation;
27 Apre sa, n'a separe tout bagay mwatye pou mwatye, mwatye pou moun ki te al goumen yo, mwatye pou rès moun pèp Izrayèl yo.
and divide the plunder into two parts: between the men skilled in war, who went out to battle, and all the congregation.
28 Nan mwatye ki pou moun ki te al goumen yo, n'a wete yon pòsyon ki va tankou yon taks y'a peye pou Seyè a: sou chak senksan (500) moun, sou chak senksan bèt menm kalite, bèf, bourik, mouton, kabrit, w'a wete yonn pou Seyè a.
Levy a tribute to the LORD of the men of war who went out to battle: one soul of five hundred; of the persons, of the cattle, of the donkeys, and of the flocks.
29 Sa w'a wete nan mwatye ki pou moun ki te al goumen yo, w'a bay Eleaza, prèt la, tankou yon bagay yo pran pou Seyè a.
Take it from their half, and give it to Eleazar the priest, for the LORD’s wave offering.
30 Sou lòt mwatye ki rete pou rès moun pèp Izrayèl la, w'a pran yonn sou chak senkant moun, sou chak senkant bèt menm kalite, bèf, bourik, mouton, kabrit. Epi w'a bay moun Levi yo ki reskonsab Tant Randevou Seyè a.
Of the children of Israel’s half, you shall take one drawn out of every fifty, of the persons, of the cattle, of the donkeys, and of the flocks, of all the livestock, and give them to the Levites, who perform the duty of the LORD’s tabernacle.”
31 Moyiz ak Eleaza, prèt la, te fè tout bagay jan Seyè a te bay Moyiz lòd fè a.
Moses and Eleazar the priest did as the LORD commanded Moses.
32 San konte sa sòlda yo te pran pou yo menm, men sa yo te pran nan men lènmi yo epi yo te pote bay Moyiz: sisanswasannkenzmil (675.000) mouton ak kabrit,
Now the plunder, over and above the booty which the men of war took, was six hundred and seventy-five thousand sheep,
33 swasanndouzmil (72.000) bèf,
seventy-two thousand head of cattle,
34 swasanteyenmil (61.000) bourik,
sixty-one thousand donkeys,
35 tranndemil (32.000) jenn fi ki poko janm kouche ak gason.
and thirty-two thousand persons in all, of the women who had not known man by lying with him.
36 Yo pran mwatye ladan yo bay sòlda ki te al goumen yo. Epi yo wete sa ki pou Seyè a ladan l'. Sa te fè twasantrannsètmil senksan (337.500) mouton ak kabrit,
The half, which was the portion of those who went out to war, was in number three hundred and thirty-seven thousand and five hundred sheep;
37 ak sisanswasannkenz (675) ladan yo pou Seyè a,
and the LORD’s tribute of the sheep was six hundred and seventy-five.
38 trannsimil (36.000) bèf ak swasanndouz ladan yo pou Seyè a,
The cattle were thirty-six thousand, of which the LORD’s tribute was seventy-two.
39 trantmil senksan (30.500) bourik ak swasanteyen ladan yo pou Seyè a,
The donkeys were thirty thousand and five hundred, of which the LORD’s tribute was sixty-one.
40 sèzmil (16.000) jenn fi ak trannde ladan yo pou Seyè a.
The persons were sixteen thousand, of whom the LORD’s tribute was thirty-two persons.
41 Se konsa, Moyiz renmèt bay Eleaza, prèt la, tou sa yo te wete pou Seyè a, jan Seyè a te bay Moyiz lòd la.
Moses gave the tribute, which was the LORD’s wave offering, to Eleazar the priest, as the LORD commanded Moses.
42 Lòt mwatye a te pou rès pèp Izrayèl la. Lè Moyiz fin wete sa ki te pou sòlda yo,
Of the children of Israel’s half, which Moses divided off from the men who fought
43 men sa ki te rete: twasantrannsètmil senksan (337.500) mouton ak kabrit,
(now the congregation’s half was three hundred and thirty-seven thousand and five hundred sheep,
44 trannsimil (36.000) bèf,
thirty-six thousand head of cattle,
45 trantmil senksan (30.500) bourik ak
thirty thousand and five hundred donkeys,
46 sèzmil (16.000) jenn fi.
and sixteen thousand persons),
47 Sou mwatye ki te pou rès moun pèp Izrayèl la, Moyiz pran yon moun sou chak senkant moun ak yon bèt sou chak senkant bèt menm kalite, li bay moun Levi yo ki te reskonsab tant Seyè a, jan Seyè a te bay Moyiz lòd la.
even of the children of Israel’s half, Moses took one drawn out of every fifty, both of man and of animal, and gave them to the Levites, who performed the duty of the LORD’s tabernacle, as the LORD commanded Moses.
48 Lè sa a, tout moun ki te chèf lame a, chèf divizyon mil yo ak chèf konpayi san yo, yo tout vin jwenn Moyiz.
The officers who were over the thousands of the army, the captains of thousands, and the captains of hundreds, came near to Moses.
49 Epi yo di l': -Nou konte kantite sòlda ki te sou kont nou yo, nou jwenn yo tout la.
They said to Moses, “Your servants have taken the sum of the men of war who are under our command, and there lacks not one man of us.
50 Se poutèt sa, n'ap pote tout bijou lò nou te jwenn epi nou te pran: braslè, chennèt, bag, zanno, chenn ak meday, n'ap ofri yo bay Seyè a pou li ka fè nou gras.
We have brought the LORD’s offering, what every man found: gold ornaments, armlets, bracelets, signet rings, earrings, and necklaces, to make atonement for our souls before the LORD.”
51 Moyiz ak Eleaza, prèt la, resevwa tout bijou lò yo te pote yo.
Moses and Eleazar the priest took their gold, even all worked jewels.
52 Sa te fè katsan (400) liv konsa chèf divizyon mil yo ak chèf konpayi san yo te pote bay Moyiz ak Eleaza ki te resevwa yo pou Seyè a.
All the gold of the wave offering that they offered up to the LORD, of the captains of thousands, and of the captains of hundreds, was sixteen thousand and seven hundred and fifty shekels.
53 Men, sòlda yo menm te kenbe sa yo te pran pou tèt pa yo.
The men of war had taken booty, every man for himself.
54 Se konsa Moyiz ak Eleaza, prèt la, pran lò chèf divizyon mil ak chèf konpayi san yo te pote ba yo a, yo pote l' nan Tant Randevou a, pou Seyè a te ka toujou chonje pwoteje pèp Izrayèl la.
Moses and Eleazar the priest took the gold of the captains of thousands and of hundreds, and brought it into the Tent of Meeting for a memorial for the children of Israel before the LORD.
