Numbers 25

Pèp Izrayèl la vin moute tant yo nan Fon Zakasya yo. Lè sa a, mesye yo konmanse lage kò yo nan vagabondaj ak fanm peyi Moab yo.

And Israel abode in Shittim, and the people began to commit whoredom with the daughters of Moab.

Medam peyi Moab yo menm envite yo nan seremoni ofrann bèt yo t'ap touye pou bondye pa yo. Moun pèp Izrayèl yo ale vre, yo manje epi yo sèvi bondye moun Moab yo.

And they called the people unto the sacrifices of their gods: and the people did eat, and bowed down to their gods.

Se konsa pèp Izrayèl la pran sèvi Baal-Peyò. Sa te fè Seyè a ankòlè anpil sou moun pèp Izrayèl yo.

And Israel joined himself unto Baal–peor: and the anger of the LORD was kindled against Israel.

Seyè a di Moyiz konsa: -Pran tout chèf pèp la, pann yo gwo midi devan mwen. Konsa, mwen p'ap ankòlè sou yo ankò.

And the LORD said unto Moses, Take all the heads of the people, and hang them up before the LORD against the sun, that the fierce anger of the LORD may be turned away from Israel.

Moyiz di chèf ki te reskonsab pèp la: -Se pou nou chak nou touye tout gason nan moun nou yo ki te al sèvi Baal-Peyò.

And Moses said unto the judges of Israel, Slay ye every one his men that were joined unto Baal–peor.

Lè sa a, antan tout moun yo t'ap kriye sou devan pòt Tant Randevou a, yonn nan gason pèp Izrayèl la ale, li mennen yon fanm peyi Madyan lakay li, devan Moyiz ak tout moun pèp Izrayèl la.

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, who were weeping before the door of the tabernacle of the congregation.

Lè Fineas, pitit gason Eleaza a, pitit pitit Arawon, prèt la, wè sa, li leve, li kite moun yo kote yo te reyini an, li pase men l', li pran yon frenn.

And when Phinehas, the son of Eleazar, the son of Aaron the priest, saw it, he rose up from among the congregation, and took a javelin in his hand;

Li swiv nonm lan ak fanm lan anba tant lan, epi li pèse tou de, ni nonm lan ni fanm lan, ak frenn lan anba ti vant yo. Lamenm, epidemi ki t'ap ravaje pèp la sispann.

And he went after the man of Israel into the tent, 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.

Te gen vennkatmil (24.000) moun ki te gen tan mouri nan epidemi an.

And those that died in the plague were twenty and four thousand.

Seyè a pale ak Moyiz, li di l' konsa:

And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,

-Se Fineas, pitit gason Eleaza a, pitit pitit gason Arawon prèt la, ki te fè m' sispann ankòlè sou pèp la. Paske nan tout moun sa yo, se li menm ki pa t' ka sipòte wè yon moun nan pèp Izrayèl la kite m' pou l' al sèvi yon lòt bondye. Se poutèt sa, atout mwen t'ap fè jalouzi a, mwen pa fin touye tout pèp la nèt.

Phinehas, the son of Eleazar, the son of Aaron the priest, hath turned my wrath away from the children of Israel, while he was zealous for my sake among them, that I consumed not the children of Israel in my jealousy.

Men sa pou ou di Fineas pou mwen: m'ap siyen yon kontra avè l' ki pou ba li kè poze.

Wherefore say, Behold, I give unto him my covenant of peace:

M'ap mete li, li menm ak tout ras fanmi l' apre li, pou yo sèvi m' prèt pou tout tan. Paske li te fè m' wè jan li pa t' tolere moun sèvi lòt bondye pase mwen. Se konsa li fè m' padonnen sa pèp la te fè ki mal la.

And he shall have it, and his seed after him, even the covenant of an everlasting priesthood; because he was zealous for his God, and made an atonement for the children of Israel.

Nonm pèp Izrayèl ki te mouri ansanm ak fanm peyi Madyan an te rele Zimri. Se te pitit gason Salou, chèf nan branch fanmi Simeyon an.

Now the name of the Israelite that was slain, even that was slain with the Midianitish woman, was Zimri, the son of Salu, a prince of a chief house among the Simeonites.

Fanm peyi Madyan yo te touye a te rele Kozbi. Se te pitit fi Sou, ki li menm te chèf yon branch nan fanmi moun Madyan yo.

And the name of the Midianitish woman that was slain was Cozbi, the daughter of Zur; he was head over a people, and of a chief house in Midian.

Lè sa a, Seyè a pale ak Moyiz, li di l':

And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,

-Al atake moun Madyan yo. Bat yo byen bay.

Vex the Midianites, and smite them:

Paske se yo menm ki te atake nou anvan ak malefis yo te voye sou nou nan zafè Peyò a, ak nan zafè Kozbi a, pitit fi chèf peyi Madyan an, moun menm ras ak yo a, fanm yo te touye lè epidemi te tonbe sou nou nan peyi Peyò a.

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 a prince of Midian, their sister, which was slain in the day of the plague for Peor's sake.
