< Numbers 36 >
1 The family heads of the descendants of Gilead, son of Machir, son of Manasseh, one of the tribes of Joseph, came and spoke before Moses and the Israelite leaders, the heads of families.
Atsogoleri a mabanja a fuko la Giliyadi, mwana wa Makiri, mwana wa Manase omwe anali ochokera ku fuko la ana a Yosefe anabwera ndi kuyankhula ndi Mose, atsogoleri ndi akuluakulu a mabanja a Aisraeli.
2 They said, “When the Lord ordered you, my lord, to allocate land ownership to the Israelites by lot, he also ordered you to give our brother Zelophehad's share to his daughters.
Iwo anati, “Pamene Yehova analamula mbuye wanga kuti apereke dziko ngati cholowa kwa Aisraeli mwa maere, anakulamulani inu kupereka cholowa cha mʼbale wathu Zelofehadi kwa ana ake aakazi.
3 However, if they marry men from the other tribes of Israel, their allocation would be taken away our fathers' share and added to the tribe of the men they marry. That part of our allocation would be lost to us.
Tsopano ngati akwatiwa ndi aamuna ochokera ku mafuko ena a mitundu ya Aisraeli, cholowa chawo chidzatengedwa kuchoka pa cholowa cha makolo athu ndipo adzachiwonjezera ku fuko limene akwatiwakolo. Ndipo gawo lina la cholowacho, lopatsidwa kwa ife lidzatengedwa.
4 So when the Jubilee for the Israelites comes around, their allocation would be added to the tribe into which they marry, and taken away from our fathers' tribe.”
Pamene chaka cha chikondwerero cha zaka makumi asanu, cha Aisraeli chafika, cholowa chawo chidzawonjezeredwa ku fuko limene iwo akwatiwako. Ndipo katundu wawo adzachotsedwa pa cholowa cha fuko la makolo athu.”
5 Following what the Lord told him, Moses gave these orders to the Israelites, “What the tribe of the sons of Joseph says is right.
Tsono mwa lamulo la Yehova, Mose anapereka lamulo ili kwa Aisraeli: “Zimene ana a Yosefe akunena ndi zoona.
6 This is what the Lord has ordered in regard to Zelophehad's daughters: They can marry anyone they want as long as they marry within a family that belongs to their father's tribe.
Izi ndi zimene Yehova akulamula kwa ana aakazi a Zelofehadi: Atha kukwatiwa ndi aliyense amene angakondweretsedwe naye koma zingakhale bwino atakwatiwa mʼfuko la abambo awo
7 No land allocation in Israel may be passed from tribe to tribe, because every Israelite is to hold onto the allocation of his father's tribe.
kuti cholowa cha Israeli chisapite ku fuko lina, pakuti Mwisraeli aliyense ayenera kusunga cholowa cha fuko la makolo ake.
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.
Mwana wamkazi aliyense amene adzalandira cholowa cha dziko la fuko lililonse la Israeli ayenera kukwatiwa ndi munthu wa fuko la abambo ake.
9 No land allocation may be passed from one tribe to another, for each Israelite tribe must hold onto its own allocation.”
Cholowa chilichonse mu Israeli sichiyenera kupita ku fuko lina, popeza fuko lililonse la Israeli liyenera kusunga cholowa chimene linalandira.”
10 Zelophehad's daughters followed the Lord's orders through Moses.
Choncho ana aakazi a Zelofehadi anachita monga Yehova analamulira Mose.
11 Mahlah, Tirzah, Hoglah, Milcah, and Noah, Zelophehad's daughters, married cousins on their father's side.
Ana aakazi a Zelofehadi amene ndi Mahila, Tiriza, Hogila, Milika ndi Nowa, anakwatiwa ndi asuweni awo a ku mbali ya abambo awo.
12 They married within the families of the descendants of Manasseh, son of Joseph, and their land allocation stayed within their father's tribe.
Anakwatiwa mʼmafuko a zidzukulu za Manase mwana wa Yosefe, ndipo cholowa chawo chinakhalabe mʼfuko la abambo awo.
13 These are the orders and regulations that the Lord gave the Israelites through Moses on the plains of Moab beside the Jordan opposite Jericho.
Awa ndi malamulo ndi malangizo amene Yehova anapereka kwa Aisraeli kupyolera mwa Mose ku chigwa cha Mowabu mʼmbali mwa Yorodani, ku Yeriko.
