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
Bana basi ya Tselofikadi, mwana mobali ya Eferi, mwana mobali ya Galadi, mwana mobali ya Makiri, mwana mobali ya Manase bazalaki bakitani ya libota ya Manase, mwana mobali ya Jozefi. Bakombo na bango ezalaki: Mala, Noa, Ogila, Milika mpe Tiritsa. Bayaki
2 the entrance to the Tent of Meeting, stood before Moses, Eleazar the priest, the leaders, and the whole congregation, and said,
liboso ya Moyize, ya Nganga-Nzambe Eleazari mpe ya bakambi ya lisanga mobimba, na ekotelo ya Ndako ya kapo ya Bokutani mpe balobaki:
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.
« Tata na biso akufaki na esobe. Azalaki te na molongo na bato oyo bazalaki kolanda Kore, oyo basanganaki lisanga mpo na kotelemela Yawe, kasi akufaki mpo na masumu na ye moko mpe atikaki bana mibali te.
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.”
Bongo mpo na nini kombo ya tata na biso elimwa kaka boye na libota na ye, mpo ete azalaki na mwana mobali te? Pesa biso mpe eteni ya mabele kati na bandeko ya tata na biso. »
5 So Moses brought their case before the LORD,
Boye, Moyize amemaki likambo na bango liboso ya Yawe.
6 and the LORD answered him,
Yawe alobaki na Moyize:
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.
« Makambo oyo bana basi ya Tselofikadi bazali koloba ezali solo. Osengeli kopesa bango eteni ya mabele lokola libula kati na bandeko ya tata na bango mpe pesa bango libula ya tata na bango.
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.
Loba na bana ya Isalaele: ‹ Soki moto moko asili kokufa mpe atiki bana mibali te, bokopesa libula na ye epai ya mwana na ye ya mwasi.
9 If he has no daughter, give his inheritance to his brothers.
Soki mpe azali na mwana mwasi te, bokopesa libula na ye epai ya bandeko na ye ya mibali.
10 If he has no brothers, give his inheritance to his father’s brothers.
Soki mpe azali na bandeko mibali te, bokopesa libula na ye epai ya bandeko mibali ya tata na ye.
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.’”
Bongo, soki tata na ye azalaki mpe na bandeko mibali te, bokopesa libula na ye epai ya ndeko ya pene ya libota ya tata na ye; ye nde akokitana na yango. Oyo ekozala mpo na Isalaele, mobeko oyo bosengeli kolanda ndenge Yawe alobaki na Moyize. › »
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.
Yawe alobaki na Moyize: — Mata likolo ya bangomba ya Abarimi, mpe tala mokili oyo napesaki epai ya bana ya Isalaele.
13 After you have seen it, you too will be gathered to your people, as your brother Aaron was;
Sima na yo komona yango, yo mpe okokende kosangana na bakoko na yo na mokili ya bakufi ndenge moko na Aron, ndeko na yo ya mobali,
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.
pamba te tango lisanga ya bato batombokaki mpo na mayi, na esobe ya Tsini, bino mpe botosaki mitindo na Ngai te mpe bopesaki lokumu te na bosantu na Ngai na miso na bango. Ezalaki nde mayi ya Meriba ya Kadeshi, na esobe ya Tsini.
15 So Moses appealed to the LORD,
Moyize alobaki na Yawe:
16 “May the LORD, the God of the spirits of all flesh, appoint a man over the congregation
— Tika ete Yawe, Nzambe oyo apesaka pema na bato nyonso, apona moto moko mpo ete akamba lingomba oyo;
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.”
moto oyo akobanda kobima mpe kokota liboso na bango, oyo akobanda kobimisa mpe kokotisa bango mpo ete bato na Yawe bazala te lokola bibwele oyo ezanga mobateli.
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.
Yawe azongiselaki Moyize: — Kamata Jozue, mwana mobali ya Nuni, moto oyo azali na molimo mpe tia ye maboko na yo.
19 Have him stand before Eleazar the priest and the whole congregation, and commission him in their sight.
Mema ye liboso ya Nganga-Nzambe Eleazari mpe ya lingomba mobimba ya bato, bongo okopesa ye mosala na miso na bango.
20 Confer on him some of your authority, so that the whole congregation of Israel will obey him.
Pesa ye ndambo ya bokonzi na yo mpo ete lisanga mobimba ya bana ya Isalaele bakoka kotosa ye.
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.”
Akokende kotelema liboso ya Nganga-Nzambe Eleazari, oyo akotuna mokano na Yawe mpo na ye, na nzela na Urimi. Na mokano wana nde, ye mpe lisanga mobimba ya bana ya Isalaele bakobanda kobima mpe kokota.
22 Moses did as the LORD had commanded him. He took Joshua, had him stand before Eleazar the priest and the whole congregation,
Moyize asalaki ndenge Yawe atindaki ye. Akamataki Jozue mpe atelemisaki ye liboso ya Nganga-Nzambe Eleazari mpe liboso ya lisanga mobimba ya Isalaele.
23 and laid his hands on him and commissioned him, as the LORD had instructed through Moses.
Atiaki ye maboko mpe apesaki ye mosala, ndenge Yawe atindaki na nzela ya Moyize.
