1 O o reer binu Israa'iilna waxay iska degeen Shitiim, markaasay dadkii bilaabeen inay ka dhillaystaan gabdhihii reer Moo'aab,

While Israel remained at Shittim, the people began to play the harlot with the daughters of Moab.

2 w aayo, dadkii bay ugu yeedheen allabaryadii ilaahyadooda, markaasay dadkii wax cuneen, oo waxay u sujuudeen ilaahyadoodii.

For they invited the people to the sacrifices of their gods, and the people ate and bowed down to their gods.

3 O o reer binu Israa'iil waxay isku dareen Bacal Fecoor. Markaasaa Rabbiga cadhadiisii aad ugu kululaatay reer binu Israa'iil.

So Israel joined themselves to Baal of Peor, and the Lord was angry against Israel.

4 K olkaasaa Rabbigu Muuse ku yidhi, Dadka madaxdiisa oo dhan soo wado oo maalin cad ku deldel Rabbiga hortiisa in cadhadii kululayd oo Rabbigu ay ka soo noqoto reer binu Israa'iil.

The Lord said to Moses, “Take all the leaders of the people and execute them in broad daylight before the Lord, so that the fierce anger of the Lord may turn away from Israel.”

5 K olkaasaa Muuse wuxuu xaakinnadii reer binu Israa'iil ku yidhi, Idinka mid waluba ha dilo nimankiisii Bacal Fecoor isku daray.

So Moses said to the judges of Israel, “Each of you slay his men who have joined themselves to Baal of Peor.”

6 O o bal eeg, mid reer binu Israa'iil ah ayaa walaalihiis ula yimid naag reer Midyaan ah Muuse hortiisa iyo shirkii reer binu Israa'iil oo dhan hortooda iyagoo ku ooyaya iriddii teendhadii shirka horteeda.

Then behold, one of the sons of Israel came and brought to his relatives a Midianite woman, in the sight of Moses and in the sight of all the congregation of the sons of Israel, while they were weeping at the doorway of the tent of meeting.

7 O o Fiinexaas ina Elecaasaar oo ahaa wadaadkii Haaruun wiilkiisii markuu taas arkay ayuu shirka dhexdiisii ka kacay oo wuxuu gacanta ku qaatay waran.

When Phinehas the son of Eleazar, the son of Aaron the priest, saw it, he arose from the midst of the congregation and took a spear in his hand,

8 O o teendhadii ayuu uga daba galay ninkii reer binu Israa'iil, oo ninkii reer binu Israa'iil iyo naagtii labadiiba calooshuu ka wareemay. Markaasaa belaayadii laga joojiyey reer binu Israa'iil.

and he went after the man of Israel into the tent and pierced both of them through, the man of Israel and the woman, through the body. So the plague on the sons of Israel was checked.

9 O o intii belaayadii u dhimatay waxay ahaayeen afar iyo labaatan kun.

Those who died by the plague were 24, 000. The Zeal of Phinehas

10 K olkaasaa Rabbigu Muuse la hadlay, oo wuxuu ku yidhi,

Then the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,

11 W axaa cadhadaydii reer binu Israa'iil ka celiyey Fiinexaas ina Elecaasaar oo ah wiilkii wadaadka Haaruun ah, waayo, dhexdooda ayuu iiga qiirooday, oo sidaas daraaddeed anigu qiiradaydii kuma aan baabbi'in reer binu Israa'iil.

“ Phinehas the son of Eleazar, the son of Aaron the priest, has turned away My wrath from the sons of Israel in that he was jealous with My jealousy among them, so that I did not destroy the sons of Israel in My jealousy.

12 H addaba sidaas daraaddeed waxaad tidhaahdaa, Bal eeg, anigu waxaan isaga la dhiganayaa axdigaygii nabadda.

Therefore say, ‘ Behold, I give him My covenant of peace;

13 O o isaga iyo farcankiisa ka dambeeyaba buu u ahaan doonaa axdiga wadaadnimo weligeed ah, maxaa yeelay, Ilaahiis buu qiiro u qabay, oo reer binu Israa'iil ayuu u kafaaro guday.

and it shall be for him and his descendants after him, a covenant of a perpetual priesthood, because he was jealous for his God and made atonement for the sons of Israel.’”

14 H addaba ninkii reer binu Israa'iil oo la dilay, oo naagtii reer Midyaan lala dilay, magiciisu wuxuu ahaa Simrii ina Saaluu oo amiir u ahaa qoladiisa reer Simecoon.

Now the name of the slain man of Israel who was slain with the Midianite woman, was Zimri the son of Salu, a leader of a father’s household among the Simeonites.

15 O o naagtii reer Midyaan oo la dilay magaceedu wuxuu ahaa Kaasbii ina Suur, oo aabbeheed wuxuu madax u ahaa qolo ka mid ah reer Midyaan.

The name of the Midianite woman who was slain was Cozbi the daughter of Zur, who was head of the people of a father’s household in Midian.

16 M arkaasaa Rabbigu Muuse la hadlay oo wuxuu ku yidhi,

Then the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,

17 R eer Midyaan dhib oo laa iyaga,

“ Be hostile to the Midianites and strike them;

18 w aayo, waxay idinku dhibeen khiyaanadooda ay idinku khiyaaneeyeen xagga xaalkii Fecoor iyo xaalkii Kaasbii oo ahayd gabadhii amiirka reer Midyaan oo walaashood ahayd, taasoo maalintii belaayada la dilay xaalkii Fecoor aawadiis.

for they have been hostile to you with their tricks, with which they have deceived you in the affair of Peor and in the affair of Cozbi, the daughter of the leader of Midian, their sister who was slain on the day of the plague because of Peor.”
