< Numbers 27 >

1 Now the daughters of Zelophehad son of Hepher, the son of Gilead, the son of Machir, the son of Manasseh, belonged to the clans of Manasseh son of Joseph. These were the names of his daughters: Mahlah, Noah, Hoglah, Milcah, and Tirzah. They approached
فَتَقَدَّمَتْ بَنَاتُ صَلُفْحَادَ بْنِ حَافَرَ بْنِ جِلْعَادَ بْنِ مَاكِيرَ بْنِ مَنَسَّى، مِنْ عَشَائِرِ مَنَسَّى بْنِ يُوسُفَ. وَهَذِهِ أَسْمَاءُ بَنَاتِهِ: مَحْلَةُ وَنُوعَةُ وَحُجْلَةُ وَمِلْكَةُ وَتِرْصَةُ.١
2 the entrance to the Tent of Meeting, stood before Moses, Eleazar the priest, the leaders, and the whole congregation, and said,
وَوَقَفْنَ أَمَامَ مُوسَى وَأَلِعَازَارَ ٱلْكَاهِنِ وَأَمَامَ ٱلرُّؤَسَاءِ وَكُلِّ ٱلْجَمَاعَةِ لَدَى بَابِ خَيْمَةِ ٱلِٱجْتِمَاعِ قَائِلَاتٍ:٢
3 “Our father died in the wilderness, but he was not among the followers of Korah who gathered together against the LORD. Instead, he died because of his own sin, and he had no sons.
«أَبُونَا مَاتَ فِي ٱلْبَرِّيَّةِ، وَلَمْ يَكُنْ فِي ٱلْقَوْمِ ٱلَّذِينَ ٱجْتَمَعُوا عَلَى ٱلرَّبِّ فِي جَمَاعَةِ قُورَحَ، بَلْ بِخَطِيَّتِهِ مَاتَ وَلَمْ يَكُنْ لَهُ بَنُونَ.٣
4 Why should the name of our father disappear from his clan because he had no sons? Give us property among our father’s brothers.”
لِمَاذَا يُحْذَفُ ٱسْمُ أَبِينَا مِنْ بَيْنِ عَشِيرَتِهِ لِأَنَّهُ لَيْسَ لَهُ ٱبْنٌ؟ أَعْطِنَا مُلْكًا بَيْنَ إِخْوةِ أَبِينَا».٤
5 So Moses brought their case before the LORD,
فَقَدَّمَ مُوسَى دَعْوَاهُنَّ أَمَامَ ٱلرَّبِّ.٥
6 and the LORD answered him,
فَكَلَّمَ ٱلرَّبُّ مُوسَى قَائِلًا:٦
7 “The daughters of Zelophehad speak correctly. You certainly must give them property as an inheritance among their father’s brothers, and transfer their father’s inheritance to them.
«بِحَقٍّ تَكَلَّمَتْ بَنَاتُ صَلُفْحَادَ، فَتُعْطِيهِنَّ مُلْكَ نَصِيبٍ بَيْنَ إِخْوَةِ أَبِيهنَّ، وَتَنْقُلُ نَصِيبَ أَبِيهِنَّ إِلَيْهِنَّ.٧
8 Furthermore, you shall say to the Israelites, ‘If a man dies and leaves no son, you are to transfer his inheritance to his daughter.
وَتُكَلِّمُ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ قَائِلًا: أَيُّمَا رَجُلٍ مَاتَ وَلَيْسَ لَهُ ٱبْنٌ، تَنْقُلُونَ مُلْكَهُ إِلَى ٱبْنَتِهِ.٨
9 If he has no daughter, give his inheritance to his brothers.
وَإِنْ لَمْ تَكُنْ لَهُ ٱبْنَةٌ، تُعْطُوا مُلْكَهُ لِإِخْوَتِهِ.٩
10 If he has no brothers, give his inheritance to his father’s brothers.
وَإِنْ لَمْ يَكُنْ لَهُ إِخْوَةٌ، تُعْطُوا مُلْكَهُ لِإِخوَةِ أَبِيهِ.١٠
11 And if his father has no brothers, give his inheritance to the next of kin from his clan, that he may take possession of it. This is to be a statutory ordinance for the Israelites, as the LORD has commanded Moses.’”
وَإِنْ لَمْ يَكُنْ لِأَبِيهِ إِخْوَةٌ، تُعْطُوا مُلْكَهُ لِنَسِيبِهِ ٱلْأَقْرَبِ إِلَيْهِ مِنْ عَشِيرَتِهِ فَيَرِثُهُ». فَصَارَتْ لِبَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ فَرِيضَةَ قَضَاءٍ، كَمَا أَمَرَ ٱلرَّبُّ مُوسَى.١١
12 Then the LORD said to Moses, “Go up this mountain of the Abarim range and see the land that I have given the Israelites.
وَقَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ لِمُوسَى: «ٱصْعَدْ إِلَى جَبَلِ عَبَارِيمَ هَذَا وَٱنْظُرِ ٱلْأَرْضَ ٱلَّتِي أَعْطَيْتُ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ.١٢
13 After you have seen it, you too will be gathered to your people, as your brother Aaron was;
وَمَتَى نَظَرْتَهَا، تُضَمُّ إِلَى قَوْمِكَ أَنْتَ أَيْضًا كَمَا ضُمَّ هَارُونُ أَخُوكَ.١٣
14 for when the congregation contended in the Wilderness of Zin, both of you rebelled against My command to show My holiness in their sight regarding the waters.” Those were the waters of Meribah in Kadesh, in the Wilderness of Zin.
لِأَنَّكُمَا فِي بَرِّيَّةِ صِينَ، عِنْدَ مُخَاصَمَةِ ٱلْجَمَاعَةِ، عَصَيْتُمَا قَوْلِي أَنْ تُقَدِّسَانِي بِٱلْمَاءِ أَمَامَ أَعْيُنِهِمْ». ذَلِكَ مَاءُ مَرِيبَةِ قَادَشَ فِي بَرِّيَّةِ صِينَ.١٤
15 So Moses appealed to the LORD,
فَكَلَّمَ مُوسَى ٱلرَّبِّ قَائِلًا:١٥
16 “May the LORD, the God of the spirits of all flesh, appoint a man over the congregation
«لِيُوَكِّلِ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُ أَرْوَاحِ جَمِيعِ ٱلْبَشَرِ رَجُلًا عَلَى ٱلْجَمَاعَةِ،١٦
17 who will go out and come in before them, and who will lead them out and bring them in, so that the congregation of the LORD will not be like sheep without a shepherd.”
يَخْرُجُ أَمَامَهُمْ وَيَدْخُلُ أَمَامَهُمْ وَيُخْرِجُهُمْ وَيُدْخِلُهُمْ، لِكَيْلَا تَكُونَ جَمَاعَةُ ٱلرَّبِّ كَٱلْغَنَمِ ٱلَّتِي لَا رَاعِيَ لَهَا».١٧
18 And the LORD replied to Moses, “Take Joshua son of Nun, a man with the Spirit in him, and lay your hands on him.
فَقَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ لِمُوسَى: «خُذْ يَشُوعَ بْنَ نُونَ، رَجُلًا فِيهِ رُوحٌ، وَضَعْ يَدَكَ عَلَيْهِ،١٨
19 Have him stand before Eleazar the priest and the whole congregation, and commission him in their sight.
وَأَوْقِفْهُ قُدَّامَ أَلِعَازَارَ ٱلْكَاهِنِ وَقُدَّامَ كُلِّ ٱلْجَمَاعَةِ، وَأَوْصِهِ أَمَامَ أَعْيُنِهِمْ.١٩
20 Confer on him some of your authority, so that the whole congregation of Israel will obey him.
وَٱجْعَلْ مِنْ هَيْبَتِكَ عَلَيْهِ لِكَيْ يَسْمَعَ لَهُ كُلُّ جَمَاعَةِ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ،٢٠
21 He shall stand before Eleazar the priest, who will seek counsel for him before the LORD by the judgment of the Urim. At his command, he and all the Israelites with him—the entire congregation—will go out and come in.”
فَيَقِفَ أَمَامَ أَلِعَازَارَ ٱلْكَاهِنِ فَيَسْأَلُ لَهُ بِقَضَاءِ ٱلْأُورِيمِ أَمَامَ ٱلرَّبِّ. حَسَبَ قَوْلِهِ يَخْرُجُونَ، وَحَسَبَ قَوْلِهِ يَدْخُلُونَ، هُوَ وَكُلُّ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ مَعَهُ، كُلُّ ٱلْجَمَاعَةِ».٢١
22 Moses did as the LORD had commanded him. He took Joshua, had him stand before Eleazar the priest and the whole congregation,
فَفَعَلَ مُوسَى كَمَا أَمَرَهُ ٱلرَّبُّ. أَخَذَ يَشُوعَ وَأَوْقَفَهُ قُدَّامَ أَلِعَازَارَ ٱلْكَاهِنِ وَقُدَّامَ كُلِّ ٱلْجَمَاعَةِ،٢٢
23 and laid his hands on him and commissioned him, as the LORD had instructed through Moses.
وَوَضَعَ يَدَيْهِ عَلَيْهِ وَأَوْصَاهُ كَمَا تَكَلَّمَ ٱلرَّبُّ عَنْ يَدِ مُوسَى.٢٣
