< Numbers 36 >

1 And the princes of the families of Galaad, the son of Machir, the son of Manasses, of the stock Of the children of Joseph, came and spoke to Moses before the princes of Israel, and said:
Epi chèf lakay zansèt a fis a Galaad yo, fis a Makir yo, fis a Manassé a, a zansèt a Joseph yo, te vin toupre pou te pale devan Moïse ak devan chèf yo, chèf lakay zansèt a fis Israël yo.
2 The Lord hath commanded thee, my lord, that thou shouldst divide the land by lot to the children of Israel, and that thou shouldst give to the daughters of Salphaad our brother the possession due to their father:
Yo te di: “SENYÈ a te kòmande mèt pa mwen an pou bay peyi a pa tiraj osò a fis Israël yo. E mèt mwen an te kòmande pa SENYÈ a pou bay eritaj a Tselophchad la, frè nou an, bay pitit fi li yo.
3 Now if men of another tribe take them to wives, their possession will follow them, and being transferred to another tribe, will be a diminishing of our inheritance.
Men si yo marye avèk youn nan fis nan lòt tribi fis Israël yo, eritaj yo va retire nan eritaj zansèt nou yo, e li va vin ajoute a eritaj a tribi sou sila yo vin manm nan. Konsa, l ap retire nan eritaj ki te tonbe nan dwa nou an.
4 And so it shall come to pass, that when the jubilee, that is, the fiftieth year of remission, is come, the distribution made by the lots shall be confounded, and the possession of the one shall pass to the others.
Lè jibile a rive, alò, eritaj pa yo a va ajoute a eritaj tribi kote yo manm nan. Konsa, eritaj pa yo a va retire nan eritaj tribi a zansèt nou yo.”
5 Moses answered the children of Israel, and said by the command of the Lord: The tribe of the children of Joseph hath spoken rightly.
Alò, Moïse te kòmande fis a Israël yo pa pawòl a SENYÈ a, e te di: “Sa ke tribi a fis Joseph yo di a se sa.
6 And this is the law promulgated by the Lord touching the daughters of Salphaad: Let them marry to whom they will, only so that it be to men of their own tribe.
Se sa ke SENYÈ a te kòmande konsènan fi a Tselophchad yo e te di: ‘Kite yo marye ak nenpòt moun ke yo vle; men fòk yo marye nan pwòp fanmi a tribi zansèt papa pa yo.
7 Lest the possession of the children of Israel be mingled from tribe to tribe. For all men shall marry wives of their own tribe and kindred:
Konsa, nanpwen eritaj nan fis Israël yo ki va transfere de tribi a tribi, paske fis Israël yo va chak kenbe eritaj a tribi zansèt yo.
8 And all women shall take husbands of the same tribe: that the inheritance may remain in the families,
Chak fi ki vin posede yon eritaj nan yon tribi a fis Israël yo va madanm a yon moun ki nan fanmi tribi zansèt papa li a, pou chak fis Israël yo kapab posede eritaj a zansèt pa yo.
9 And that the tribes be not mingled one with another, but remain so
Konsa nanpwen eritaj k ap transfere de yon tribi rive nan yon lòt tribi. Paske, tribi a fis Israël yo va chak kenbe nan pwòp eritaj pa yo.’”
10 As they were separated by the Lord. And the daughters of Salphaad did as was commanded:
Jis jan ke SENYÈ a te kòmande Moïse la, se konsa fi a Tselophchad yo te fè:
11 And Maala, and Thersa, and Hegla, and Melcha, and Noa were married to the sons of their uncle by their father,
Machla, Thirtsa, Hogla, Milca, ak Noa, fi a Tselophchad yo, yo te marye avèk fis a tonton yo.
12 Of the family of Manasses, who was the son of Joseph: and the possession that had been allotted to them, remained in the tribe and family of their father.
Yo te marye sa yo soti nan fanmi a fis a Manassé yo, fis a Joseph la, e eritaj yo te rete avèk tribi a fanmi zansèt papa yo.
13 These are the commandments and judgments, which the Lord commanded by the hand of Moses to the children of Israel, in the plains of Moab upon the Jordan over against Jericho.
Sa yo se kòmandman ak règleman ke SENYÈ a te kòmande a fis Israël yo pa Moïse nan plèn Moab yo akote Jourdain an, anfas Jéricho.
