1 Ke mwet Israel elos aktuktuk ke Infahlfal Acacia, kutu sin mukul Israel mutawauk in orek kosro yurin mutan Moab su muta we.
And Israel at that time abode in Settim, and the people committed fornication 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
Who called them to their sacrifices. And they ate of them, and adored their gods.
3 Baal lun Peor. Ouinge LEUM GOD El kasrkusrak selos
And Israel was initiated to Beelphegor: upon which the Lord being angry,
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.”
Said to Moses: Take all the princes of the people, and hang them up on gibbets against the sun: that my fury may be turned 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.”
And Moses said to the judges of Israel: Let every man kill his neighbours, that have been initiated to Beelphegor.
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.
And behold one of the children of Israel went in before his brethren to a harlot of Madian, in the sight of Moses, and of all the children of Israel, who were weeping before the door of the tabernacle.
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,
And when Phinees the son of Eleazar the son of Aaron the priest saw it, he rose up from the midst; of the multitude, and taking a dagger,
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,
Went in after the Israelite into the brothel house, and thrust both of them through together, to wit, the man and the woman in the genital parts. And the scourge ceased from the children of Israel:
9 tusruktu mas se inge uniya tari tausin longoul akosr sin mwet Israel.
And there were slain four and twenty thousand men.
10 LEUM GOD El fahk nu sel Moses,
And the Lord said to Moses:
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.
Phinees the son of Eleazar the son of Aaron the priest, hath turned away my wrath from the children of Israel: because he was moved with my zeal against them, that I myself might not destroy the children of Israel in my zeal.
12 Ke ma inge kom fahkang nu sel lah nga ac orala sie wuleang inmasrlok el su fah oanna nwe tok.
Therefore say to him: Behold I give him the peace of my covenant,
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.”
And the covenant of the priesthood for ever shall be both to him and his seed, because he hath been zealous for his God, and hath made atonement for the wickedness of 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.
And the name of the Israelite, was slain with the woman of Madian, was Zambri the son of Salu, a prince the kindred and tribe of Simeon.
15 Inen mutan sac pa Cozbi, acn natul Zur, su pa leum lun sie u lun sou lulap in acn Midian.
And the Madianite woman, that was slain with him, was called Cozbi the daughter of Sur, a most noble prince among the Madianites.
16 Na LEUM GOD El sapkin nu sel Moses,
And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
17 “Tuyak ac mweuni mwet Midian ac kunauselosla,
Let the Madianites find you enemies, and slay you 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.”
Because they also have acted like enemies against you, and have guilefully deceived you by the idol Phogor, and Cozbi their sister, a daughter of a prince of Madian, who was slain in the day the plague for the sacrilege of Phogor.
