Números 25

1E repousou Israel em Sitim, e o povo começou a se prostituir com as filhas de Moabe: 2As quais chamaram ao povo aos sacrifícios de seus deuses: e o povo comeu, e inclinou-se a seus deuses. 3E achegou-se o povo a Baal-Peor; e o furor do SENHOR se acendeu contra Israel. 4E o SENHOR disse a Moisés: Toma todos os príncipes do povo, e enforca-os ao SENHOR diante do sol; e a ira do furor do SENHOR se apartará de Israel. 5Então Moisés disse aos juízes de Israel: Matai cada um àqueles dos seus que se recolheram a Baal-Peor. 6E eis que um homem dos filhos de Israel veio e trouxe uma midianita a seus irmãos, à vista de Moisés e de toda a congregação dos filhos de Israel, chorando eles à porta do tabernáculo do testemunho. 7E viu-o Fineias, filho de Eleazar, filho de Arão o sacerdote, e levantou-se do meio da congregação, e tomou uma lança em sua mão: 8E foi atrás do homem de Israel à tenda, e perfurou com a lança a ambos, ao homem de Israel, e à mulher por seu ventre. E cessou a mortandade dos filhos de Israel. 9E morreram daquela mortandade vinte e quatro mil. 10Então o SENHOR falou a Moisés, dizendo: 11Fineias, filho de Eleazar, filho de Arão o sacerdote, fez afastar meu furor dos filhos de Israel, levado de zelo entre eles: pelo qual eu não consumi em meu zelo aos filhos de Israel. 12Portanto dize lhes: Eis que eu estabeleço meu pacto de paz com ele; 13E terá ele, e sua descendência depois dele, o pacto do sacerdócio perpétuo; porquanto teve zelo por seu Deus, e fez expiação pelos filhos de Israel. 14E o nome do homem morto, que foi morto com a midianita, era Zinri filho de Salu, chefe de uma família da tribo de Simeão. 15E o nome da mulher midianita morta, era Cosbi, filha de Zur, príncipe de povos, pai de família em Midiã. 16E o SENHOR falou a Moisés, dizendo: 17Sereis hostis aos midianitas, e os ferireis: 18Porquanto eles vos afligiram com suas astúcias, com que vos enganaram no negócio de Peor, e no negócio de Cosbi, filha do príncipe de Midiã, sua irmã, a qual foi morta no dia da mortandade por causa de Peor.

1Israel stayed in Shittim; and the people began to play the prostitute with the daughters of Moab; 2for they called the people to the sacrifices of their gods. The people ate and bowed down to their gods. 3Israel joined himself to Baal Peor. Yahweh’s anger was kindled against Israel. 4Yahweh said to Moses, “Take all the chiefs of the people, and hang them up to Yahweh before the sun, that the fierce anger of Yahweh may turn away from Israel.” 5Moses said to the judges of Israel, “Everyone kill his men who have joined themselves to Baal Peor.” 6Behold, one of the children of Israel came and brought to his brothers a Midianite 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. 7When 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. 8He went after the man of Israel into the pavilion, and thrust both of them through, the man of Israel, and the woman through her body. So the plague was stayed from the children of Israel. 9Those who died by the plague were twenty-four thousand. 10Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying, 11“Phinehas, the son of Eleazar, the son of Aaron the priest, has turned my wrath away from the children of Israel, in that he was jealous with my jealousy among them, so that I didn’t consume the children of Israel in my jealousy. 12Therefore say, ‘Behold, I give to him my covenant of peace. 13It shall be to 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.’” 14Now the name of the man of Israel that was slain, who was slain with the Midianite woman, was Zimri, the son of Salu, a prince of a fathers’ house among the Simeonites. 15The name of the Midianite woman who was slain was Cozbi, the daughter of Zur. He was head of the people of a fathers’ house in Midian. 16Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying, 17“Harass the Midianites, and strike them, 18for they harassed you with their wiles, with which they have deceived you in the matter of Peor, and in the matter of Cozbi, the daughter of the prince of Midian, their sister, who was slain on the day of the plague in the matter of Peor.”

1En Israel verbleef te Sittim, en het volk begon te hoereren met de dochteren der Moabieten. 2En zij nodigden het volk tot de slachtofferen harer goden; en het volk at, en boog zich voor haar goden. 3Als nu Israel zich koppelde aan Baal-Peor, ontstak de toorn des HEEREN tegen Israel. 4En de HEERE zeide tot Mozes: Neem alle hoofden des volks, en hang ze den HEERE tegen de zon, zo zal de hittigheid van des HEEREN toorn gekeerd worden van Israel. 5Toen zeide Mozes tot de rechters van Israel: Een iedere dode zijn mannen, die zich aan Baal-Peor gekoppeld hebben! 6En ziet, een man uit de kinderen Israels kwam, en bracht een Midianietin tot zijn broederen voor de ogen van Mozes, en voor de ogen van de ganse vergadering der kinderen Israels, toen zij weenden voor de deur van de tent der samenkomst. 7Toen Pinehas, de zoon van Eleazar, den zoon van Aaron, den priester, dat zag, zo stond hij op uit het midden der vergadering, en nam een spies in zijn hand; 8En hij ging den Israelietischen man na in de hoerenwinkel, en doorstak hen beiden, den Israelietischen man en de vrouw, door hun buik. Toen werd de plaag van over de kinderen Israels opgehouden. 9Degenen nu, die aan de plaag stierven, waren vier en twintig duizend. 10Toen sprak de HEERE tot Mozes, zeggende: 11Pinehas, de zoon van Eleazar, den zoon van Aaron, den priester, heeft Mijn grimmigheid van over de kinderen Israels afgewend, dewijl hij Mijn ijver geijverd heeft in het midden derzelve, zodat Ik de kinderen Israels in Mijn ijver niet vernield heb. 12Daarom spreek: Zie, Ik geef hem Mijn verbond des vredes. 13En hij zal hebben, en zijn zaad na hem, het verbond des eeuwigen priesterdoms, daarom dat hij voor zijn God geijverd, en verzoening gedaan heeft voor de kinderen Israels. 14De naam nu des verslagenen Israelietischen mans, die verslagen was met de Midianietin, was Zimri, de zoon van Salu, een overste van een vaderlijk huis der Simeonieten. 15En de naam der verslagene Midianietische vrouw was Kozbi, een dochter van Zur, die een hoofd was der volken van een vaderlijk huis onder de Midianieten. 16Verder sprak de HEERE tot Mozes, zeggende: 17Handel vijandelijk met de Midianieten, en versla hen; 18Want zij hebben vijandelijk tegen ulieden gehandeld door hun listen, die zij listig tegen u bedacht hebben in de zaak van Peor, en in de zaak van Kozbi, de dochter van den overste der Midianieten, hun zuster, die verslagen is, ten dage der plaag, om de zaak van Peor.
