Números 25

Menge-Bibel 1939

1Als aber die Israeliten sich in Sittim niedergelassen hatten, fing das Volk an, mit den Moabitinnen Unzucht zu treiben.

2Diese luden das Volk zu den Opferfesten ihrer Götter ein, und das Volk nahm an ihren Opfermahlen teil und betete ihre Götter an.

3Als nun die Israeliten sich so an Baal-Peor gehängt hatten, entbrannte der Zorn des HERRN gegen Israel,

4so daß der HERR dem Mose gebot: »Nimm alle Häupter des Volkes und hänge sie angesichts der Sonne auf, damit der lodernde Zorn des HERRN sich von Israel abwende.«

5Da befahl Mose den Richtern der Israeliten: »Tötet ein jeder diejenigen von seinen Leuten, die sich an Baal-Peor gehängt haben!«

6Da kam gerade einer von den Israeliten (ins Lager) und brachte eine Midianitin zu seinen Volksgenossen mit vor den Augen Moses und vor den Augen der ganzen Gemeinde der Israeliten, während diese am Eingang des Offenbarungszeltes wehklagten.

7Als Pinehas, der Sohn des Priesters Eleasar, des Sohnes Aarons, das sah, trat er aus der Mitte der Gemeinde heraus, nahm einen Speer in seine Hand,

8ging dann dem Israeliten in das Schlafgemach nach und durchbohrte beide, den israelitischen Mann und das Weib, und zwar letzteres durch ihren Unterleib. Da wurde dem Sterben unter den Israeliten Einhalt getan.

9Es belief sich aber die Zahl derer, die durch das Sterben umgekommen waren, auf 24000.

10Hierauf sagte der HERR zu Mose:

11»Pinehas, der Sohn des Priesters Eleasar, des Sohnes Aarons, hat meinen Zorn von den Israeliten dadurch abgewandt, daß er denselben Eifer, der mir eigen ist, unter ihnen bewiesen hat; darum habe ich die Israeliten trotz meines Eifers nicht ganz vertilgt.

12So mache denn bekannt: Ich schließe hierdurch mit ihm meinen Bund, daß ihm Heil widerfahren soll;

13und zwar soll ihm und seinen Nachkommen nach ihm das Priestertum auf ewige Zeiten zustehen, zum Lohn dafür, daß er für seinen Gott geeifert und den Israeliten Sühne erwirkt hat.«

14Der damals getötete Israelit aber, der mitsamt der Midianitin getötet worden war, hieß Simri; er war der Sohn Salus und das Haupt eines Geschlechts der Simeoniten;

15die damals getötete Midianitin aber hieß Kosbi; sie war die Tochter Zurs, des Hauptes einer Familie, eines midianitischen Geschlechts.

16Darauf gebot der HERR dem Mose folgendes:

17»Behandelt die Midianiter als Feinde und erschlagt sie!

18Denn sie haben feindlich gegen euch gehandelt durch ihre Ränke, die sie gegen euch verübt haben in betreff des Peor und in betreff ihrer Landsmännin Kosbi, der Tochter eines midianitischen Fürsten, die am Tage des wegen des Peor verhängten Sterbens getötet worden ist.«

1Y REPOSÓ Israel en Sittim, y el pueblo empezó á fornicar con las hijas de Moab:

2Las cuales llamaron al pueblo á los sacrificios de sus dioses: y el pueblo comió, é inclinóse á sus dioses.

3Y allegóse el pueblo á Baal-peor; y el furor de Jehová se encendió contra Israel.

4Y Jehová dijo á Moisés: Toma todos los príncipes del pueblo, y ahórcalos á Jehová delante del sol; y la ira del furor de Jehová se apartará de Israel.

5Entonces Moisés dijo á los jueces de Israel: Matad cada uno á aquellos de los suyos que se han allegado á Baal-peor.

6Y he aquí un varón de los hijos de Israel vino y trajo una Madianita á sus hermanos, á ojos de Moisés y de toda la congregación de los hijos de Israel, llorando ellos á la puerta del tabernáculo del testimonio.

7Y viólo Phinees, hijo de Eleazar, hijo de Aarón el sacerdote, y levantóse de en medio de la congregación, y tomó una lanza en su mano:

8Y fué tras el varón de Israel á la tienda, y alanceólos á ambos, al varón de Israel, y á la mujer por su vientre. Y cesó la mortandad de los hijos de Israel.

9Y murieron de aquella mortandad veinte y cuatro mil.

10Entonces Jehová habló á Moisés, diciendo:

11Phinees, hijo de Eleazar, hijo de Aarón el sacerdote, ha hecho tornar mi furor de los hijos de Israel, llevado de celo entre ellos: por lo cual yo no he consumido en mi celo á los hijos de Israel.

12Por tanto diles: He aquí yo establezco mi pacto de paz con él;

13Y tendrá él, y su simiente después de él, el pacto del sacerdocio perpetuo; por cuanto tuvo celo por su Dios, é hizo expiación por los hijos de Israel.

14Y el nombre del varón muerto, que fué muerto con la Madianita, era Zimri hijo de Salu, jefe de una familia de la tribu de Simeón.

15Y el nombre de la mujer Madianita muerta, era Cozbi, hija de Zur, príncipe de pueblos, padre de familia en Madián.

16Y Jehová habló á Moisés, diciendo:

17Hostilizaréis á los Madianitas, y los heriréis:

18Por cuanto ellos os afligieron á vosotros con sus ardides, con que os han engañado en el negocio de Peor, y en el negocio de Cozbi, hija del príncipe de Madián, su hermana, la cual fué muerta el día de la mortandad por causa de Peor.

King James Version

1And Israel abode in Shittim, and the people began to commit whoredom with the daughters of Moab.

2And they called the people unto the sacrifices of their gods: and the people did eat, and bowed down to their gods.

3And Israel joined himself unto Baal-peor: and the anger of the LORD was kindled against Israel.

4And 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.

5And Moses said unto the judges of Israel, Slay ye every one his men that were joined unto Baal-peor.

6And, 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.

7And 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;

8And 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.

9And those that died in the plague were twenty and four thousand.

10And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,

11Phinehas, 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.

12Wherefore say, Behold, I give unto him my covenant of peace:

13And 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.

14Now 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.

15And 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.

16And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,

17Vex the Midianites, and smite them:

18For 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.

World English Bible

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, and the LORD’s anger burned against Israel.

4The LORD said to Moses, “Take all the chiefs of the people, and hang them up to the LORD before the sun, that the fierce anger of the LORD 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 middle 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 stopped among the children of Israel.

9Those who died by the plague were twenty-four thousand.

10The LORD 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 offspring 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.

16The LORD spoke to Moses, saying,

17“Harass the Midianites, and strike them;

18for they harassed you with their wiles, wherein they have deceived you in the matter of Peor, and in the incident regarding Cozbi, the daughter of the prince of Midian, their sister, who was slain on the day of the plague in the matter of Peor.”
