Numbers 36
1 And the chief fathers of families of the sons of Gilead, the son of Machir, the son of Manasseh, of the families of the sons of Joseph, came near, and spoke before Moses, and before the princes, the chief fathers of the children of Israel:
Overhovederne for Fædrenehusene i Gileaditernes Slægt Gilead var en Søn af Manasses Søn Makir af Josefs Sønners Slægter traadte frem og talte for Moses og Øversterne, Overhovederne for Israeliternes Fædrenehuse,
2 and they said, Jehovah commanded my lord to give the land for an inheritance by lot to the children of Israel; and my lord was commanded by Jehovah to give the inheritance of Zelophehad our brother to his daughters.
og sagde: »HERREN har paalagt min Herre at udskifte Landet mellem Israeliterne ved Lodkastning, og min Herre har i HERRENS Navn paabudt at give vor Frænde Zelofhads Arvelod til hans Døtre.
3 Now if they be married to any of the sons of the [other] tribes of the children of Israel, then shall their inheritance be taken from the inheritance of our fathers, and shall be added to the inheritance of the tribe to which they shall belong; and it shall be taken from the lot of our inheritance.
Men hvis de nu indgaar Ægteskab med Mænd, der hører til en anden af Israels Stammer, saa unddrages deres Arvelod jo vore Fædres Arvelod, og saaledes øges den Stammes Arvelod, som de kommer til at tilhøre, medens den Arvelod, der er tilfaldet os ved Lodkastning, formindskes;
4 And when the jubilee of the children of Israel shall come, then shall their inheritance be added to the inheritance of the tribe to which they shall belong; and their inheritance shall be taken away from the inheritance of the tribe of our fathers.
og naar Israeliterne faar Jubelaar, lægges deres Arvelod til den Stammes Arvelod, som de kommer til at tilhøre, og saaledes unddrages deres Arvelod vor fædrene Stammes Arvelod.«
5 And Moses commanded the children of Israel according to the word of Jehovah, saying, The tribe of the sons of Joseph hath said well.
Da udstedte Moses efter HERRENS Ord følgende Bud til Israeliterne: »Josefs Sønners Stamme har talt ret!
6 This is the thing which Jehovah hath commanded concerning the daughters of Zelophehad, saying, Let them marry whom they please; only they shall marry one of the tribe of their father,
Saaledes er HERRENS Bud angaaende Zelofhads Døtre: De maa indgaa Ægteskab med hvem de ønsker, men det maa kun være Mænd af deres Faders Stammes Slægt, de indgaar Ægteskab med.
7 that no inheritance of the children of Israel pass from tribe to tribe; for every one of the children of Israel shall keep to the inheritance of the tribe of his fathers.
Thi ingen Arvelod, der tilhører Israel, maa gaa over fra en Stamme til en anden, men Israeliterne skal holde fast hver ved sin fædrene Stammes Arvelod.
8 And every daughter that possesseth an inheritance among the tribes of the children of Israel, shall be married to one of the family of the tribe of her father, that the children of Israel may possess every one the inheritance of his fathers,
Enhver Datter, som faar en Arvelod i en af Israeliternes Stammer, skal indgaa Ægteskab med en Mand af sin fædrene Stammes Slægt, for at Israeliterne kan beholde hver sine Fædres Arvelod som Ejendom;
9 and the inheritance shall not pass from one tribe to another tribe; for each of the tribes of the children of Israel shall keep to his inheritance.
og ingen Arvelod maa gaa over fra den ene Stamme til den anden, men Israeliternes Stammer skal holde fast hver ved sin Arvelod!«
10 Even as Jehovah had commanded Moses, so did the daughters of Zelophehad;
Zelofhads Døtre gjorde da, som HERREN paalagde Moses,
11 and Mahlah, Tirzah, and Hoglah, and Milcah, and Noah, the daughters of Zelophehad, were married unto their uncles' sons.
idet Mala, Tirza, Hogla, Milka og Noa, Zelofhads Døtre, indgik Ægteskab med deres Farbrødres Sønner;
12 To those that were of the families of the sons of Manasseh the son of Joseph were they married; and their inheritance remained in the tribe of the family of their father.
de indgik Ægteskab med Mænd, som hørte til Josefs Søn Manasses Sønners Slægter, saa at deres Arvelod vedblev at tilhøre deres fædrene Slægts Stamme.
13 These are the commandments and the ordinances which Jehovah commanded through Moses to the children of Israel, in the plains of Moab, by the Jordan of Jericho.
Det er de Bud og Lovbud, HERREN gav Israeliterne ved Moses paa Moabs Sletter ved Jordan over for Jeriko.
