< Numbers 36 >

1 Now the family heads of the clan of Gilead son of Machir son of Manasseh, one of the clans of Joseph, approached Moses and the leaders who were the heads of the Israelite families and addressed them,
Joseph imthung dawk hoi Manasseh capa Makhir capa Gilead catoun imthung kahrawikungnaw hmalah lawk a dei awh.
2 saying, “When the LORD commanded my lord to give the land as an inheritance to the Israelites by lot, He also commanded him to give the inheritance of our brother Zelophehad to his daughters.
Ahnimouh ni, BAWIPA ni Isarel catounnaw hah cungpam rayu hoi a coe awh hane ram poe hanlah, ka bawipa Mosi hah kâ a poe teh, hmaunawngha Zelophehad canunaw a coe hane râw hah BAWIPA ni ka bawipa koe kâ a poe toe.
3 But if they marry any of the men from the other tribes of Israel, their inheritance will be withdrawn from the portion of our fathers and added to the tribe into which they marry. So our allotted inheritance would be taken away.
Hatei, ahnimouh ni Isarel catoun thung dawk hoi miphun alouke capa koe vâ sak pawiteh, na mintoenaw e ram a coe awh e hah la pouh vaiteh, a vâ koelae ram miphun koe lah a kâthap han. Hottelah coe tangcoung e ram dawk hoi tâcokhai han.
4 And when the Jubilee for the Israelites comes, their inheritance will be added to the tribe into which they marry and taken away from the tribe of our fathers.”
Hahoi Isarel catounnaw e Jubili a pha toteh, a ram hah a vanaw e miphunnaw ni coe e ram lah thapsin lah ao han. Hottelah mintoenaw e miphun ram thung dawk hoi let na lawp pouh awh han telah ati.
5 So at the word of the LORD, Moses commanded the Israelites: “The tribe of the sons of Joseph speaks correctly.
Hatdawkvah, Mosi ni BAWIPA lawk patetlah Isarel catounnaw hah kâ a poe teh, Joseph capa hoi miphunnaw ni a dei e a thuem.
6 This is what the LORD has commanded concerning the daughters of Zelophehad: They may marry anyone they please, provided they marry within a clan of the tribe of their father.
Zelophehad canunaw kong dawkvah BAWIPA ni kâ a poe e teh hettelah doeh. Ahawi ati e pueng vâ naseh, hatei a napanaw e miphun hah vâ awh naseh telah ati.
7 No inheritance in Israel may be transferred from tribe to tribe, because each of the Israelites is to retain the inheritance of the tribe of his fathers.
Hatdawkvah, Isarel catounnaw e ram teh, miphun alouklouk koe voutsout puen laipalah, Isarel catounnaw ni a na mintoenaw e ram teh pou a ham awh han.
8 Every daughter who possesses an inheritance from any Israelite tribe must marry within a clan of the tribe of her father, so that every Israelite will possess the inheritance of his fathers.
Isarel catounnaw thung dawk râw ka pang hane canunaw pueng teh, Isarel catounnaw ni a na mintoenaw e ram lah kaawm e pou a ham thai nahan, a na pa miphun thung e a yu a la hanlah ao.
9 No inheritance may be transferred from one tribe to another, for each tribe of Israel must retain its inheritance.”
Ram teh miphun alouklouk koe puen thai mahoeh. Bangkongtetpawiteh, Isarel catounnaw ni amamae ram hah pou a pang awh e lah kaawm han telah a dei.
10 So the daughters of Zelophehad did as the LORD had commanded Moses.
Hottelah, BAWIPA ni Mosi kâ a poe e patetlah Zelophehad canunaw ni a sak awh van.
11 Mahlah, Tirzah, Hoglah, Milcah, and Noah, the daughters of Zelophehad, were married to cousins on their father’s side.
Zelophehad canunaw Mahlah, Tirzah hoi Hoglah, Milkah hoi Noah tinaw ni a na pa e hmaunawnghanaw e capanaw hah a vâ awh.
12 They married within the clans of the descendants of Manasseh son of Joseph, and their inheritance remained within the tribe of their father’s clan.
Joseph capa Manasseh e capa hah a vâ awh teh, a ram teh a na pa miphunnaw ni a coe e râw lah pou a kangning.
13 These are the commandments and ordinances that the LORD gave the Israelites through Moses on the plains of Moab by the Jordan across from Jericho.
Hetnaw heh Jeriko tengpam Jordan namran Moab tanghling dawkvah, BAWIPA ni Mosi hno lahoi Isarelnaw koevah, kâ a poe e kâpoelawknaw hoi lawkcengnaenaw doeh.
