Kwan 27
1 Nyi Zelofehad wuod Hefer, ma wuod Gilead, ma wuod Makir, ma wuod Manase, ne gin joka Manase wuod Josef. Nyirigo ne gin Mala, Nowa, Hogla, Milka kod Tirza. Negisudo machiegni gi
Then came the daughters of Zelophehad, the son of Hepher, the son of Gilead, the son of Machir, the son of Manasseh, of the families of Manasseh the son of Joseph: and these are the names of his daughters; Mahlah, Noah, and Hoglah, and Milcah, and Tirzah.
2 kar donjo mar Hemb Romo mi gichungʼ e nyim Musa, Eliazar jadolo, jotelo kod chokruok mar oganda duto, mi giwacho niya,
And they stood before Moses, and before Eleazar the priest, and before the princes and all the congregation, by the door of the tabernacle of the congregation, saying,
3 “Wuonwa notho e thim. Ne ok en achiel kuom jolup Kora, mane okwedo Jehova Nyasaye, to notho nikech richone owuon kendo ne ok onywolo yawuowi.
Our father died in the wilderness, and he was not in the company of them that gathered themselves together against YHWH in the company of Korah; but died in his own sin, and had no sons.
4 Angʼo ma dimi nying wuonwa lal nono e anywolagi nikech ne ok onywolo wuowi? Yie upognwa kamoro e kind wede wuonwa.”
Why should the name of our father be done away from among his family, because he hath no son? Give unto us therefore a possession among the brethren of our father.
5 Omiyo Musa nokelo wachgini e nyim Jehova Nyasaye
And Moses brought their cause before YHWH.
6 kendo Jehova Nyasaye nowachone niya,
And YHWH spake unto Moses, saying,
7 “Gima nyi Zelofehad owacho nikare. Nyaka ipog-gi gimoro kaka girkeni ei wede wuon-gi kendo girkeni mag wuon-gi imigi.
The daughters of Zelophehad speak right: thou shalt surely give them a possession of an inheritance among their father's brethren; and thou shalt cause the inheritance of their father to pass unto them.
8 “Wachne jo-Israel ni, ‘Ka dichwo otho ma ok onywolo wuowi, to ipog nyathine ma nyako girkeni mare.
And thou shalt speak unto the children of Israel, saying, If a man die, and have no son, then ye shall cause his inheritance to pass unto his daughter.
9 To ka oonge gi nyako, to ipog owetene girkeni mare.
And if he have no daughter, then ye shall give his inheritance unto his brethren.
10 To ka oonge gi owete, to ipog owete gi wuonene girkeni mare.
And if he have no brethren, then ye shall give his inheritance unto his father's brethren.
11 To ka wuon-gi onge gi owetene, to ipog watne moro amora machiegni kode e anywolagi, mondo oyud girkenino. Mae nobed chik ne jo-Israel, mana kaka Jehova Nyasaye nosechiko Musa.’”
And if his father have no brethren, then ye shall give his inheritance unto his kinsman that is next to him of his family, and he shall possess it: and it shall be unto the children of Israel a statute of judgment, as YHWH commanded Moses.
12 Eka Jehova Nyasaye nowacho ne Musa niya, “Dhi malo e Got Abarim kendo ingʼi piny ma asemiyo jo-Israel.
And YHWH said unto Moses, Get thee up into this mount Abarim, and see the land which I have given unto the children of Israel.
13 Bangʼ ka isenene, to in bende ibiro tho miluw kwereni, mana kaka owadu Harun notho,
And when thou hast seen it, thou also shalt be gathered unto thy people, as Aaron thy brother was gathered.
14 nimar e kinde mane oganda ongʼanyo e sokni mantiere e Thim mar Zin, un duto ne ok urito chikna kendo nyiso oganda ni an Ngʼama Ler.” (Magi ne sokni mag Meriba Kadesh, mantiere e Thim mar Zin.)
For ye rebelled against my commandment in the desert of Zin, in the strife of the congregation, to sanctify me at the water before their eyes: that is the water of Meribah in Kadesh in the wilderness of Zin.
15 Musa nowacho ne Jehova Nyasaye ni,
And Moses spake unto YHWH, saying,
16 “Mad Jehova Nyasaye, ma Nyasach chunje duto mag dhano, oyier jatelo manyalo rito ogandani
Let YHWH, the Elohim of the spirits of all flesh, set a man over the congregation,
17 mondo otelnegi e gik moko duto ma gitimo kendo oritgi kagiwuok kendo ka gidwogo dala mondo oganda Jehova Nyasaye kik chal gi rombe maonge jokwath.”
Which may go out before them, and which may go in before them, and which may lead them out, and which may bring them in; that the congregation of YHWH be not as sheep which have no shepherd.
18 Omiyo Jehova Nyasaye nowacho ne Musa niya, “Kaw Joshua wuod Nun, ngʼat man-gi Roho, kendo yie lweti kuome.
And YHWH said unto Moses, Take thee Joshua the son of Nun, a man in whom is the spirit, and lay thine hand upon him;
19 Kete ochungʼ e nyim Eliazar jadolo kod chokruok duto mar oganda kendo ipwodhe e nyimgi.
And set him before Eleazar the priest, and before all the congregation; and give him a charge in their sight.
20 Miye tekoni moko mondo mi oganda jo-Israel duto omiye luor.
And thou shalt put some of thine honour upon him, that all the congregation of the children of Israel may be obedient.
21 Nyaka ochungʼ e nyim jadolo Eliazar, mabiro ngʼadone rieko kopenjo Urim e nyim Jehova Nyasaye. Kogolo chik, to en kod oganda jo-Israel duto nowuog oko, kendo kogolo chik to gibiro donjo iye.”
And he shall stand before Eleazar the priest, who shall ask counsel for him after the judgment of Urim before YHWH: at his word shall they go out, and at his word they shall come in, both he, and all the children of Israel with him, even all the congregation.
22 Musa notimo kaka Jehova Nyasaye nochike. Nokawo Joshua mi otero e nyim Eliazar jadolo gi chokruok duto.
And Moses did as YHWH commanded him: and he took Joshua, and set him before Eleazar the priest, and before all the congregation:
23 Eka noyieyo lwete kuome mi opwodhe, mana kaka Jehova Nyasaye nochiko Musa.
And he laid his hands upon him, and gave him a charge, as YHWH commanded by the hand of Moses.
