31 Yehova aahimuleela Moise wiira: 2 “Mwaavahe ehukhumu+ atthu a oMidiyani, mwaha wa etthu yaawiirenle aya aisarayeli.+ Nuumala-vo, nyuwo munimookhwa”.+

3 Vano Moise aahaaleela atthu wiira: “Mwaalokiherye alopwana murina anyu, wiira yawane ekhotto ni atthu a oMidiyani. Mwiira siiso, munoopaka etthu Yehova orumme awe, eyo piiyo, munimwaavaha ehukhumu atthu a oMidiyani. 4 Wa mahimo ootheene a Isarayeli, khula nihimo mwaathanle atthu 1.000 wiira erowe okhottoni”. 5 Nto, wa mahimo a Isarayeli,*+ yaahithanliwa atthu 1.000 khula nihimo. Siiso, atthu 12.000 yaahilikana wiira yawane ekhotto.

6 Khula nihimo, Moise aahaaruma alopwana 1.000 orowa okhottoni. Awo yaahihooliwa ni Pineha,+ mwaana a namukuttho Eleyazari. Pineha owo, aahikuxa itthu sooreerihiwa sa mutapernaakulu ni malope a okhottoni.+ 7 Awo yaahiwana ekhotto ni atthu a oMidiyani, siisaale ntoko Yehova aamurumme awe Moise. Yaahiwiiva alopwana ootheene. 8 Waahiya alopwana awo, yaahiwiiva-tho mamwene mathanu a oMidiyani, eyo piiyo, Evi, Rekemi, Suri, Huri, ni Reba. Nave-tho, yaahimwiiva Balaamu,+ mwaana a Beyori ni espaata.* 9 Masi aisarayeli yaahaavara athiyana ni anamwane a oMidiyani. Yaahikuxa-tho inama saya sootheene sa vate ni mireerelo saya sootheene. 10 Awo yaahipaha ipooma sootheene ni maxaxa ootheene oMidiyani. 11 Yaahikuxa mireerelo sootheene sa atthu, ni inama saya sootheene. Nave-tho yaahaavara atthu. 12 Yaahaakuxa atthu ale yaavanre aya, vamosa ni mireerelo saya, ni inama saya, amuroihela Moise ni namukuttho Eleyazari, ni atthu ootheene a Isarayeli, yaawo yaari moothakoni moowaataleya mwa oMowabi,+ waattamela muro Yordani, oYeriko.

13 Vano, Moise ni namukuttho Eleyazari ni makhulupale ootheene a nloko, yaahirowa okumana ni atthu awo ota wa muttetthe. 14 Masi Moise aahinanariwa vanceene ni makhulupale ale a anakhotto, eyo piiyo, makhulupale a anakhotto 1.000 ni makhulupale a anakhotto 100, yaawo yaakhuma okhottoni. 15 Moise aahaakoha oriki: “Xeeni muhalaka waahiya athiyana ootheene ari ene akumi? 16 Ti yaala yaatumereriwe ni Balaamu waawoka aisarayeli, wiira amukhootte Yehova+ ni amukokhoreleke muluku Peyori.+ Tivonto, yaahaakhumelela ehasara atthu ootheene a Yehova.+ 17 Muhaana owiiva anamwane ootheene axilopwana, nave athiyana ootheene atonko orupa ni mulopwana. 18 Masi mwaahiye ari ene akumi aximwali ootheene ahitonko orupa ni mulopwana.+ 19 Muhaana omaka mahiku 7 ota wa muttetthe. Nto ootheene ale amwiivale mutthu aahiiso avanre murutthu,+ ahaana wiireeriha+ nihiku na neeraru ni nihiku na neethanu nenli, vamosa ni ale mwaavanre anyu. 20 Nave, mureerihe malaya ootheene, ni itthu sootheene sipakiwe ni esapala, ni itthu sootheene sipakiwe ni manri a epuri, ni itthu sootheene sipakiwe ni matera”.

21 Nto namukuttho Eleyazari aahaaleela anakhotto yaaronwe owana ekhotto wiira: “Nlamulo Yehova omurumme awe Moise, tinla: 22 “Paahi eweero, eparatha, ekoopiri, eyuuma, estaanyu, ni exumpu, 23 eyo piiyo, itthu sootheene sihinivya ni mooro, muhaana oreeriha nvirihaka vamooroni. Nave, muhaana-tho oreeriha itthu iyo ni maasi anirumeeliwa para oreeriha.+ Nto itthu sootheene sinivya ni mooro, muhaana orapiha ni maasi. 24 Nave, muhaana okattha malaya anyu nihiku na neethanu nenli. Siiso, munookhala ooreerihiwa. Nuumala-vo, pooti otthikela omuttettheni’”.+

25 Vano, Yehova aahimuleela Moise wiira: 26 “Nyuwo vamosa ni namukuttho Eleyazari, ni ahooleli a mahimo a nloko, mulepe itthu siruuhiwe okhottoni, mukontari itthu sikuxiwe, ni atthu avariwe, ni inama sivariwe. 27 Mukawanye itthu iyo mipantta miili. Mpantta mmosa mwaavahe atoropa yaaronwe owana ekhotto, nto mpantta mukina mwaavahe atthu ootheene a nloko yahaaronwe okhottoni.+ 28 Wa khula itthu 500 sa atoropa yaaronwe okhottoni, mukuxe etthu emosa wiira munvahe mpoosito Yehova, akhale atthu, sikhale ipooyi, apuuru, ipuri aahiiso ipwittipwitthi. 29 Nave-tho, muhavule itthu iyo eriyari, munvahe namukuttho Eleyazari, ntoko yoovaha para Yehova.+ 30 Mpantta ovahiwe aisarayeli, wa khula itthu 50 mukuxe emosa, okhale mutthu, sikhale ipooyi, akhale apuuru, sikhale ipuri aahiiso ipwittipwitthi, eyo piiyo, khula enama ya vate, mwaavahe alevi,+ yaawo anikhapelela miteko sinivarihana ni etapernaakulu ya Yehova”.+

31 Tivo, Moise ni namukuttho Eleyazari yaahiira siisaale ntoko Yehova aamurumme awe Moise. 32 Mireerelo saahanle, seiyo saakuxiwe ni alopwana yaaronwe owana ekhotto, saari ipuri ni ipwittipwitthi 675.000, 33 ipooyi 72.000, 34 ni apuuru 61.000. 35 Athiyana yahaarumpe ni alopwana+ yaari 32.000. 36 Nimeya na ipwittipwitthi ni ipuri saavahiwe atthu yaaronwe okhottoni, saari 337.500. 37 Mpoosito waavahiwe Yehova, saari ipwittipwitthi ni ipuri 675. 38 Nave saahikhala ipooyi 36.000. Nto mpoosito waavahiwe Yehova, saari ipooyi 72. 39 Yaahikhala apuuru 30.500. Nto mpoosito waavahiwe Yehova, yaari apuuru 61. 40 Yaahikhala atthu 16.000. Nto mpoosito waavahiwe Yehova, yaari atthu 32. 41 Vano Moise aahinvahererya namukuttho Eleyazari,+ mpoosito waavahiwe Yehova, siisaale ntoko Yehova aamurumme awe Moise.

42 Nimeya yaavahiwe aisarayeli, nenno Moise aakawannye awe ni nimeya yaavahiwe atthu yaaronwe okhottoni, saari itthu iya: 43 ipwittipwitthi ni ipuri 337.500, 44 ni ipooyi 36.000, 45 ni apuuru 30.500, 46 ni atthu 16.000. 47 Vano, wa khula itthu 50 sa nimeya yaavahiwe aisarayeli, Moise aahikuxa emosa, akhale atthu aahiiso inama, aavaha alevi,+ yaawo yaakhapelela miteko saavarihana ni etapernaakulu ya Yehova,+ siisaale ntoko Yehova aamurumme awe Moise.

48 Alopwana yaathanliwe, yaawo yaari makhulupale a atoropa 1.000,+ ni makhulupale a atoropa 100, yaahimwaattamela Moise, 49 anamuleela wiira: “Hiyo arumeyi anyu, nihaakontari alopwana ootheene nnaahoolela ahu, yaawo yaaronwe okhottoni. Khuuvo orimenle, nnakhala mmosa.+ 50 Nto munihiye wiira khula mmosa a hiyo onvahe Yehova itthu oruuhale awe: itthu sa eweero, ipulseera siniwariwa mukosani, ipulseera siniwariwa mmoononi, anela, ipirinku, ni itthu sikina, wiira nivekele oleveleliwa itampi sahu ohoolo wa Yehova”.

51 Siiso, Moise ni namukuttho Eleyazari yaahaakhelela eweero ni itthu sootheene yaaruuheliwe aya. 52 Eweero yootheene makhulupale a anakhotto 1.000 ni makhulupale a anakhotto 100 yanvanhe aya Yehova, yaari ixeekele* 16.750. 53 Khula mulopwana aaronwe okhottoni aahikuxa mpantta awe wa mireerelo saakuxiwe. 54 Moise ni namukuttho Eleyazari yaahaakhelela eweero yaaruuhiwe ni makhulupale a anakhotto 1.000, ni makhulupale na anakhotto 100. Awo yaahiroiha itthu iyo mutentani mwa mithukumano, wiira atthu aisarayeli yuupuweleke moota Yehova aakhalihenrye awe.
