民數記 25
Chinese Union Version, punctuated (Traditional)
Douay-Rheims Bible, American Edition (1899)
1以色列 人住在 什亭 ，百姓與 摩押 女子行起淫亂。
1And Israel at that time abode in Settim, and the people committed fornication with the daughters of Moab,
2因為這女子叫百姓來，一同給她們的神獻祭，百姓就吃 她們的祭物 ，跪拜她們的神。
2Who called them to their sacrifices. And they ate of them, and adored their gods.
3以色列 人與 巴力‧毗珥 連合，耶和華的怒氣就向 以色列 人發作。
3And Israel was initiated to Beelphegor: upon which the Lord being angry,
4耶和華吩咐 摩西 說：「將百姓中所有的族長在我面前對着日頭懸掛，使我向 以色列 人所發的怒氣可以消了。」
4Said to Moses: Take all the princes of the people, and hang them up on gibbets against the sun: that my fury may be turned away from Israel.
5於是 摩西 吩咐 以色列 的審判官說：「凡屬你們的人，有與 巴力‧毗珥 連合的，你們各人要把他們殺了。」
5And Moses said to the judges of Israel: Let every man kill his neighbours, that have been initiated to Beelphegor.
6摩西 和 以色列 全會眾正在會幕門前哭泣的時候，誰知，有 以色列 中的一個人，當他們眼前，帶着一個 米甸 女人到他弟兄那裏去。
6And behold one of the children of Israel went in before his brethren to a harlot of Madian, in the sight of Moses, and of all the children of Israel, who were weeping before the door of the tabernacle.
7祭司 亞倫 的孫子， 以利亞撒 的兒子 非尼哈 看見了，就從會中起來，手裏拿着槍，
7And when Phinees the son of Eleazar the son of Aaron the priest saw it, he rose up from the midst; of the multitude, and taking a dagger,
8跟隨那 以色列 人進亭子裏去，便將 以色列 人和那女人由腹中刺透。這樣，在 以色列 人中瘟疫就止息了。
8Went in after the Israelite into the brothel house, and thrust both of them through together, to wit, the man and the woman in the genital parts. And the scourge ceased from the children of Israel:
9那時遭瘟疫死的，有二萬四千人。
9And there were slain four and twenty thousand men.
10耶和華曉諭 摩西 說：
10And the Lord said to Moses:
11「祭司 亞倫 的孫子， 以利亞撒 的兒子 非尼哈 ，使我向 以色列 人所發的怒消了；因他在他們中間，以我的忌邪為心，使我不在忌邪中把他們除滅。
11Phinees the son of Eleazar the son of Aaron the priest, hath turned away my wrath from the children of Israel: because he was moved with my zeal against them, that I myself might not destroy the children of Israel in my zeal.
12因此，你要說：『我將我平安的約賜給他。
12Therefore say to him: Behold I give him the peace of my covenant,
13這約要給他和他的後裔，作為永遠當祭司職任的約；因他為上帝有忌邪的心，為 以色列 人贖罪。』」
13And the covenant of the priesthood for ever shall be both to him and his seed, because he hath been zealous for his God, and hath made atonement for the wickedness of the children of Israel.
14那與 米甸 女人一同被殺的 以色列 人，名叫 心利 ，是 撒路 的兒子，是 西緬 一個宗族的首領。
14And the name of the Israelite, was slain with the woman of Madian, was Zambri the son of Salu, a prince the kindred and tribe of Simeon.
15那被殺的 米甸 女人，名叫 哥斯比 ，是 蘇珥 的女兒；這 蘇珥 是 米甸 一個宗族的首領。
15And the Madianite woman, that was slain with him, was called Cozbi the daughter of Sur, a most noble prince among the Madianites.
16耶和華曉諭 摩西 說：
16And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
17「你要擾害 米甸 人，擊殺他們；
17Let the Madianites find you enemies, and slay you them:
18因為他們用詭計擾害你們，在 毗珥 的事上和他們的姊妹、 米甸 首領的女兒 哥斯比 的事上，用這詭計誘惑了你們；這 哥斯比 ，當瘟疫流行的日子，因 毗珥 的事被殺了。」
18Because they also have acted like enemies against you, and have guilefully deceived you by the idol Phogor, and Cozbi their sister, a daughter of a prince of Madian, who was slain in the day the plague for the sacrilege of Phogor.
