Numbers 27
1 Then 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, drew near. And these are the names of his daughters: Mahlah, Noah, and Hoglah, and Milcah, and Tirzah.
Accesserunt autem filiæ Salphaad, filii Hepher, filii Galaad, filii Machir, filii Manasse, qui fuit filius Ioseph: quarum sunt nomina, Maala, et Noa, et Hegla, et Melcha, et Thersa.
2 And they stood before Moses, and before Eleazar the priest, and before the rulers and all the congregation, at the door of the tent of meeting, saying,
Steteruntque coram Moyse et Eleazaro sacerdote, et cunctis principibus populi ad ostium tabernaculi fœderis, atque dixerunt:
3 Our father died in the wilderness, and he was not among the company of those who gathered themselves together against Jehovah in the company of Korah, but he died in his own sin, and he had no sons.
Pater noster mortuus est in deserto, nec fuit in seditione, quæ concitata est contra Dominum sub Core, sed in peccato suo mortuus est: hic non habuit mares filios. Cur tollitur nomen illius de familia sua, quia non habuit filium? Date nobis possessionem inter cognatos patris nostri.
4 Why should the name of our father be taken away from among his family, because he had no son? Give to us a possession among the brothers of our father.
Retulitque Moyses causam earum ad iudicium Domini.
5 And Moses brought their case before Jehovah.
Qui dixit ad eum:
6 And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,
Iustam rem postulant filiæ Salphaad: da eis possessionem inter cognatos patris sui, et ei in hereditatem succedant.
7 The daughters of Zelophehad speak right. Thou shall surely give them a possession of an inheritance among their father's brothers, and thou shall cause the inheritance of their father to pass to them.
Ad filios autem Israel loqueris hæc:
8 And thou shall speak to the sons of Israel, saying, If a man dies, and has no son, then ye shall cause his inheritance to pass to his daughter.
Homo cum mortuus fuerit absque filio, ad filiam eius transibit hereditas.
9 And if he has no daughter, then ye shall give his inheritance to his brothers.
Si filiam non habuerit, habebit successores fratres suos.
10 And if he has no brothers, then ye shall give his inheritance to his father's brothers.
Quod si et fratres non fuerint, dabitis hereditatem fratribus patris eius.
11 And if his father has no brothers, then ye shall give his inheritance to his kinsman who is next to him of his family, and he shall possess it. And it shall be to the sons of Israel a statute and ordinance, as Jehovah commanded Moses.
Sin autem nec patruos habuerit, dabitur hereditas his, qui ei proximi sunt. Eritque hoc filiis Israel sanctum lege perpetua, sicut præcepit Dominus Moysi.
12 And Jehovah said to Moses, Get thee up onto this mountain of Abarim, and behold the land which I have given to the sons of Israel.
Dixit quoque Dominus ad Moysen: Ascende in montem istum Abarim, et contemplare inde Terram, quam daturus sum filiis Israel.
13 And when thou have seen it, thou also shall be gathered to thy people, as Aaron thy brother was gathered,
Cumque videris eam, ibis et tu ad populum tuum, sicut ivit frater tuus Aaron:
14 because ye rebelled against my word in the wilderness of Zin, in the strife of the congregation, to sanctify me at the waters before their eyes. (These are the waters of Meribah of Kadesh in the wilderness of Zin.)
quia offendistis me in deserto Sin in contradictione multitudinis, nec sanctificare me voluistis coram ea super aquas. Hæ sunt aquæ contradictionis in Cades deserti Sin.
15 And Moses spoke to Jehovah, saying,
Cui respondit Moyses:
16 Let Jehovah, the God of the spirits of all flesh, appoint a man over the congregation,
Provideat Dominus Deus spirituum omnis carnis, hominem, qui sit super multitudinem hanc:
17 who may go out before them, and who may come in before them, and who may lead them out, and who may bring them in, that the congregation of Jehovah be not as sheep which have no shepherd.
et possit exire et intrare ante eos, et educere eos vel introducere: ne sit populus Domini sicut oves absque pastore.
18 And Jehovah said to Moses, Take thee Joshua the son of Nun, a man in whom is the Spirit, and lay thy hand upon him,
Dixitque Dominus ad eum: Tolle Iosue filium Nun virum in quo est Spiritus, et pone manum tuam super eum.
19 and set him before Eleazar the priest, and before all the congregation, and give him a charge in their sight.
Qui stabit coram Eleazaro sacerdote et omni multitudine:
20 And thou shall put of thine honor upon him, that all the congregation of the sons of Israel may obey.
et dabis ei præcepta cunctis videntibus, et partem gloriæ tuæ, ut audiat eum omnis synagoga filiorum Israel.
21 And he shall stand before Eleazar the priest, who shall inquire for him by the judgment of the Urim before Jehovah. At his word shall they go out, and at his word they shall come in, both he, and all the sons of Israel with him, even all the congregation.
Pro hoc, si quid agendum erit, Eleazar sacerdos consulet Dominum. Ad verbum eius egredietur et ingredietur ipse, et omnes filii Israel cum eo, et cetera multitudo.
22 And Moses did as Jehovah commanded him. And he took Joshua, and set him before Eleazar the priest, and before all the congregation.
Fecit Moyses ut præceperat Dominus. Cumque tulisset Iosue, statuit eum coram Eleazaro sacerdote et omni frequentia populi.
23 And he laid his hands upon him, and gave him a charge, as Jehovah spoke by Moses.
Et impositis capiti eius manibus, cuncta replicavit quæ mandaverat Dominus.
