1以色列人住在，百姓与摩押女子行起淫乱。While Israel was staying in Shittim, the men began to indulge in sexual immorality with the daughters of Moab,
2因为这女子叫百姓来，一同给她们的神献祭，百姓就吃她们的祭物，跪拜她们的神。who also invited them to the sacrifices for their gods. And the people ate and bowed down to these gods.
3以色列人与·毗珥连合，耶和华的怒气就向以色列人发作。So Israel joined in worshiping Baal of Peor, and the anger of the LORD burned against them.
4耶和华吩咐摩西说：“将百姓中所有的族长在我面前对着日头悬挂，使我向以色列人所发的怒气可以消了。”Then the LORD said to Moses, “Take all the leaders of the people and execute them in broad daylight before the LORD, so that His fierce anger may turn away from Israel.”
5于是摩西吩咐以色列的审判官说：“凡属你们的人，有与巴力·毗珥连合的，你们各人要把他们杀了。”So Moses told the judges of Israel, “Each of you must kill all of his men who have joined in worshiping Baal of Peor.”
6摩西和以色列全会众正在会幕门前哭泣的时候，谁知，有以色列中的一个人，当他们眼前，带着一个米甸女人到他弟兄那里去。Just then an Israelite man brought to his family a Midianite woman in the sight of Moses and the whole congregation of Israel while they were weeping at the entrance to the Tent of Meeting.
7祭司亚伦的孙子，以利亚撒的儿子看见了，就从会中起来，手里拿着枪，On seeing this, Phinehas son of Eleazar, the son of Aaron the priest, got up from the assembly, took a spear in his hand,
8跟随那以色列人进里去，便将以色列人和那女人由腹中刺透。这样，在以色列人中瘟疫就止息了。followed the Israelite into the tent, and drove the spear through both of them—through the Israelite and on through the belly of the woman. So the plague against the Israelites was halted,
9那时遭瘟疫死的，有二万四千人。but those who died in the plague numbered 24,000.
10耶和华晓谕摩西说：Then the LORD said to Moses,
11“祭司亚伦的孙子，以利亚撒的儿子非尼哈，使我向以色列人所发的怒消了；因他在他们中间，以我的为心，使我不在忌邪中把他们除灭。“Phinehas son of Eleazar, the son of Aaron the priest, has turned My wrath away from the Israelites; for he was zealous for My sake among them, so that I did not consume the Israelites in My zeal.
12因此，你要说：‘我将我平安的约赐给他。Declare, therefore, that I am granting him My covenant of peace.
13这约要给他和他的后裔，作为永远当祭司职任的约；因他为 神有忌邪的心，为以色列人赎罪。’”It will be a covenant of permanent priesthood for him and his descendants, because he was zealous for his God and made atonement for the Israelites.”
14那与米甸女人一同被杀的以色列人，名叫心利，是撒路的儿子，是西缅一个宗族的首领。The name of the Israelite who was slain with the Midianite woman was Zimri son of Salu, the leader of a Simeonite family.
15那被杀的米甸女人，名叫哥斯比，是苏珥的女儿；这苏珥是米甸一个宗族的首领。And the name of the slain Midianite woman was Cozbi, the daughter of Zur, a tribal chief of a Midianite family.
16耶和华晓谕摩西说：And the LORD said to Moses,
17“你要扰害米甸人，击杀他们；“Attack the Midianites and strike them dead.
18因为他们用诡计扰害你们，在毗珥的事上和他们的姊妹、米甸首领的女儿哥斯比的事上，用这诡计诱惑了你们；这哥斯比，当瘟疫流行的日子，因毗珥的事被杀了。”For they assailed you deceitfully when they seduced you in the matter of Peor and their sister Cozbi, the daughter of the Midianite leader, the woman who was killed on the day the plague came because of Peor.”
