KING JAMES BIBLEBIBBIA VOLGARE
1 And Israel abode in Shittim, and the people began to commit whoredom with the daughters of Moab.1 E istava in quello tempo il popolo d'Israel in Setim; e peccarono colle figliuole di Moab.
2 And they called the people unto the sacrifices of their gods: and the people did eat, and bowed down to their gods.2 E loro gli chiamarono ai loro sacrificii; e loro mangiarono con loro, e adorarono il loro Iddio.
3 And Israel joined himself unto Baal-peor: and the anger of the LORD was kindled against Israel.3 E seguitarono Israel Beelfegor. E adirossi Iddio,
4 And 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.4 e disse a Moisè: tuogli tutti i principi del popolo, e impiccali contro al sole nelle forche, acciò che il mio furore si lievi d'Israel.
5 And Moses said unto the judges of Israel, Slay ye every one his men that were joined unto Baal-peor.5 Disse alli giudici d'Israel Moisè: vada ognuno, e uccida lo prossimo suo che seguitò Beelfegor.
6 And, 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.6 Ed ecco uno de' figliuoli d'Israel, in presenza de' suoi fratelli, entrò al bordello de' Madianiti, ve dendolo Moisè e tutto il popolo d'Israel, che piagnea dinanzi alle porte del tabernacolo.
7 And 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;7 Vedendolo Finees figliuolo di Eleazar, figliuolo di Aaron, levossi del mezzo della moltitudine; e preso lo coltello,
8 And 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.8 andò di dietro a quello uomo d'Israel nel bordello; e trapassogli amendue insieme, l'uomo e la donna, nel luogo dove si genera. E cessò la piaga de' figliuoli d'Israel.
9 And those that died in the plague were twenty and four thousand.9 E uccisero XXIIII XIIII milia d'uomini.
10 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,10 Disse Iddio a Moisè:
11 Phinehas, 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.11 Finees figliuolo di Eleazaro, figliuolo di Aaron sacerdote, levoe l'ira mia dai figliuoli d'Israel; perciò che, per grande amore ch' egli m'avea, si levoe contro a loro, acciò ch' io non li facessi pe rire nello mio furore.
12 Wherefore say, Behold, I give unto him my covenant of peace:12 E imperciò parlagli, e digli: Iddio ti darà parte della oblazione del tabernacolo,
13 And 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.13 a te e alla tua progenie; e sarà patto sacerdotale in sempiterno; imperciò che amò lo suo Iddio, e levò la mia indignazione d'Israel.
14 Now 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.14 Lo nome di quello israelita, che fue morto con quella Madianite, fu Zambri figliuolo di Salu, duca della gente della tribù di Simeon.
15 And 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.15 E la donna Madianita, la qual fu uccisa con lui insieme, avea nome Cozbi figliuola di Sur, principe nobile de' Madianiti.
16 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,16 Parlo Iddio a Moisè, e disse:
17 Vex the Midianites, and smite them:17 Fate che vi senta l'oste de' Madianiti, e percotetegli;
18 For 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.18 perciò che loro vennero contro a voi per modo [ostile], e ingannaronvi per l'idolo di Fogor, e per Cozbi figliuola del duca de' Madianiti, sorella sua, la quale fue percossa, lo die della piaga, per lo sacrilegio di Fogor.
