< 4 Mosebog 36 >

1 Overhovederne for Fædrenehsene i Gileaditernes Slægt Gilead var en Søn af Manasses Søn Makir af Josefs Sønners Slægter trådte frem og talte for Moses og Øversterne, Overhovederne for Israelitternes Fædrenehuse,
The heads of the fathers’ households of the family of the children of Gilead, the son of Machir, the son of Manasseh [Causing to forget], of the families of the sons of Joseph [May he add], came near, and spoke before Moses [Drawn out], and before the princes, the heads of the fathers’ households of the children of Israel [God prevails].
2 og sagde: "HERREN har pålagt min Herre at udskifte Landet mellem Israelitterne ved Lodkastning, og min Herre har i HERRENs Navn påbudt at give vor Frænde Zelofhads Arvelod til hans Døtre.
They said, “Adonai enjoined my lord to give the land for inheritance by lot to the children of Israel [God prevails]. My lord was enjoined by Adonai to give the inheritance of Zelophehad our brother to his daughters.
3 Men hvis de nu indgår Ægteskab med Mænd, der hører til en anden af Israels Stammer, så unddrages deres Arvelod jo vore Fædres Arvelod, og således øges den Stammes Arvelod, som de kommer til at tilhøre, medens den Arvelod, der er tilfaldet os ved Lodkastning, formindskes;
If they are married to any of the sons of the other tribes of the children of Israel [God prevails], then will their inheritance be taken away from the inheritance of our fathers, and will be added to the inheritance of the tribe to which they shall belong. So will it be taken away from the lot of our inheritance.
4 og når Israelitterne får Jubelår, lægges deres Arvelod til den Stammes Arvelod, som de kommer til at tilhøre, og således unddrages deres Arvelod vor fædrene Stammes Arvelod."
When the Jubilee ·Shofar· of the children of Israel [God prevails] shall be, then will their inheritance be added to the inheritance of the tribe to which they shall belong. So their inheritance will be taken away from the inheritance of the tribe of our fathers.”
5 Da udstedte Moses efter HERRENs Ord følgende Bud til Israelitterne: "Josefs Sønners Stamme har talt ret!
Moses [Drawn out] enjoined the children of Israel [God prevails] according to Adonai’s word, saying, “The tribe of the sons of Joseph [May he add] speaks right.
6 Således er HERRENs Bud angående Zelofhads Døtre: De må indgå Ægteskab med hvem de ønsker, men det må kun være Mænd af deres Faders Stammes Slægt, de indgår Ægteskab med.
This is the thing which Adonai does enjoin concerning the daughters of Zelophehad, saying, ‘Let them be married to whom they think best; only they shall marry into the family of the tribe of their father.
7 Thi ingen Arvelod, der tilhører Israel, må gå over fra en Stamme til en anden, men Israelitterne skal holde fast hver ved sin fædrene Stammes Arvelod.
So shall no inheritance of the children of Israel [God prevails] move from tribe to tribe; for the children of Israel [God prevails] shall all keep the inheritance of the tribe of his fathers.
8 Enhver Datter, som får en Arvelod i en af Israelitternes Stammer, skal indgå Ægteskab med en Mand af sin fædrene Stammes Slægt, for at Israelitterne kan beholde hver sine Fædres Arvelod som Ejendom;
Every daughter who possesses an inheritance in any tribe of the children of Israel [God prevails] shall be wife to one of the family of the tribe of her father, that the children of Israel [God prevails] may each possess the inheritance of his fathers.
9 og ingen Arvelod må gå over fra den ene Stamme til den anden, men Israelitternes Stammer skal holde fast hver ved sin Arvelod!"
So shall no inheritance move from one tribe to another tribe; for the tribes of the children of Israel [God prevails] shall each keep his own inheritance.’”
10 Zelofhads Døtre gjorde da, som HERREN pålagde Moses,
The daughters of Zelophehad did as Adonai enjoined Moses [Drawn out]:
11 idet Mala, Tirza, Hogla, Milka og Noa, Zelofhads Døtre, indgik Ægteskab med deres Farbrødres Sønner;
for Mahlah, Tirzah, Hoglah, Milcah, and Noah [Rest], the daughters of Zelophehad, were married to their dod ·father’s· brothers’ sons.
12 de indgik Ægteskab med Mænd, som hørte til Josefs Søn Manasses Sønners Slægter, så at deres Arvelod vedblev at tilhøre deres fædrene Slægts Stamme.
They were married into the families of the sons of Manasseh [Causing to forget] the son of Joseph [May he add]. Their inheritance remained in the tribe of the family of their father.
13 Det er de Bud og Lovbud, HERREN gav Israelitterne ved Moses på Moabs Sletter ved Jordan over for Jeriko.
These are the mitzvot ·instructions· and the judgments which Adonai enjoined by the hand of Moses [Drawn out] to the children of Israel [God prevails] in the plains of Moab [From father] by the Jordan [Descender] across from Jericho [Fragrant, Moon].
