4.Mose 25 | English Standard Version

Baal Worship at Peor

1 While Israel lived in Shittim, the people began to whore with the daughters of Moab.

2 These invited the people to the sacrifices of their gods, and the people ate and bowed down to their gods.

3 So Israel yoked himself to Baal of Peor. And the anger of the Lord was kindled against Israel.

4 And the Lord said to Moses, “Take all the chiefs of the people and hang* them in the sun before the Lord, that the fierce anger of the Lord may turn away from Israel.”

5 And Moses said to the judges of Israel, “Each of you kill those of his men who have yoked themselves to Baal of Peor.”

6 And behold, one of the people of Israel came and brought a Midianite woman to his family, in the sight of Moses and in the sight of the whole congregation of the people of Israel, while they were weeping in the entrance of the tent of meeting.

7 When Phinehas the son of Eleazar, son of Aaron the priest, saw it, he rose and left the congregation and took a spear in his hand

8 and went after the man of Israel into the chamber and pierced both of them, the man of Israel and the woman through her belly. Thus the plague on the people of Israel was stopped.

9 Nevertheless, those who died by the plague were twenty-four thousand.

The Zeal of Phinehas

10 And the Lord said to Moses,

11 “Phinehas the son of Eleazar, son of Aaron the priest, has turned back my wrath from the people of Israel, in that he was jealous with my jealousy among them, so that I did not consume the people of Israel in my jealousy.

12 Therefore say, ‘Behold, I give to him my covenant of peace,

13 and it shall be to him and to his descendants after him the covenant of a perpetual priesthood, because he was jealous for his God and made atonement for the people of Israel.’”

14 The name of the slain man of Israel, who was killed with the Midianite woman, was Zimri the son of Salu, chief of a father’s house belonging to the Simeonites.

15 And the name of the Midianite woman who was killed was Cozbi the daughter of Zur, who was the tribal head of a father’s house in Midian.

16 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,

17 “Harass the Midianites and strike them down,

18 for they have harassed you with their wiles, with which they beguiled you in the matter of Peor, and in the matter of Cozbi, the daughter of the chief of Midian, their sister, who was killed on the day of the plague on account of Peor.”

以色列人被诱犯罪

1 以色列人驻扎在什亭期间，有些人与摩押女子行淫。

2 那些女子邀他们参加祭祀，他们吃了祭物，并跪拜她们的神明，

3 结果使以色列与巴力·毗珥苟合。耶和华大怒，

4 对摩西说：“把为首的人都抓起来，当着我的面在大白天处死他们，以消除我对以色列人的怒气。”

5 于是，摩西对以色列的审判官说：“你们各自把权下与巴力·毗珥苟合的人处死。”

6 摩西和以色列全体会众正在会幕门口痛哭的时候，有个以色列人当着他们的面把一个米甸女子带进自家的帐篷。

7 亚伦祭司的孙子、以利亚撒的儿子非尼哈看见了，便起身离开会众，拿着矛枪，

8 跟着进入那人的帐篷，一枪刺透那对男女的腹部。以色列人当中的瘟疫马上止住了，

9 但已有两万四千人死于瘟疫。

10 耶和华对摩西说：

11 “亚伦祭司的孙子、以利亚撒的儿子非尼哈消了我对以色列人的怒气。因为在会众中他与我一样痛恨不贞，我才没有在烈怒中消灭他们。

12 你告诉他，我要赐给他平安的约，

13 使他和他的后代凭此约可以永远做祭司，因为他为我除掉了不贞之人，为以色列人赎了罪。”

14 与米甸女子一同被杀的以色列人名叫心利，是撒路的儿子，是西缅支派的一个族长。

15 被杀的米甸女子名叫哥斯比，她父亲苏珥是米甸人的一个族长。

16 耶和华对摩西说：

17 “你要攻打米甸人，击杀他们。

18 因为他们心存敌意，在毗珥陷害你们，他们的姊妹——米甸首领的女儿哥斯比诱惑你们，她在毗珥事件招来瘟疫之日被杀。”
