< 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.
Bakonzi ya mabota ya etuka ya bakitani ya Galadi, mwana mobali ya Makiri, mwana mobali ya Manase mpe mokitani ya Jozefi, bayaki liboso ya Moyize mpe liboso ya bakambi ya mabota ya Isalaele mpo na kosolola na bango.
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.
Balobaki: « Tango Yawe apesaki mitindo epai ya nkolo na ngai ete apesa mokili lokola libula epai ya bana ya Isalaele na kobeta zeke, apesaki yo mpe mitindo ya kopesa libula ya Tselofikadi, ndeko na biso ya mobali, epai ya bana na ye ya basi.
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.
Boye, soki esalemi ete bana basi yango babali mibali oyo bawuti na mabota mosusu ya Isalaele, libula na bango ekolongwa na libula ya batata na biso, mpe bakobakisa yango na libula ya libota ya mibali oyo bakobala bango. Bongo, libula oyo epesamelaki biso ekokoma moke.
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.”
Tango mobu ya kosepela kokangolama ekokoma mpo na bana ya Isalaele, libula ya bana basi yango ekobakisama na libula ya mabota ya mibali oyo babalaki bango, mpe bakozwa mabele na bango wuta na libula ya libota ya bakoko na biso. »
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.
Boye, na etinda ya Yawe, Moyize epesaki mitindo oyo epai ya bana ya Isalaele: « Makambo oyo libota ya bakitani ya Jozefi balobi ezali na nzela.
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.
Tala liloba oyo Yawe alobaki mpo na bana basi ya Tselofikadi: ‹ Bakoki solo kobalana na mibali nyonso oyo bango balingi, kasi ezala kaka kati na mibali ya libota ya tata na bango.
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.
Pamba te libula moko te kati na Isalaele ekoki kolongwa na libota moko mpo na kokende na libota mosusu; moto nyonso ya Isalaele asengeli kobatela mabele ya libota oyo azwaki lokola libula wuta na bakoko na ye.
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 mwasi nyonso kati na bikolo ya Isalaele oyo akozwa mabele lokola libula asengeli kobalana kaka na mobali ya libota ya tata na ye mpo ete moto nyonso ya Isalaele azwa libula ya tata na ye.
9 No land allocation may be passed from one tribe to another, for each Israelite tribe must hold onto its own allocation.”
Libula moko te ekoki kolongwa na libota moko mpo na kokende na libota mosusu, pamba te libota moko na moko ya Isalaele esengeli kobatela mabele oyo esili kozwa lokola libula. › »
10 Zelophehad's daughters followed the Lord's orders through Moses.
Boye, bana basi ya Tselofikadi basalaki ndenge kaka Yawe atindaki na nzela ya Moyize.
11 Mahlah, Tirzah, Hoglah, Milcah, and Noah, Zelophehad's daughters, married cousins on their father's side.
Bana basi ya Tselofikadi: Mala, Tiritsa, Ogila, Milika mpe Noa; babalanaki na bandeko na bango, na ngambo ya libota ya tata na bango.
12 They married within the families of the descendants of Manasseh, son of Joseph, and their land allocation stayed within their father's tribe.
Babalanaki kati na etuka ya bakitani ya Manase, mwana mobali ya Jozefi, mpe libula na bango etikalaki na libota mpe etuka ya tata na bango.
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.
Oyo ezali nde mibeko mpe malako oyo Yawe apesaki na nzela ya Moyize epai ya bana ya Isalaele na bitando ya Moabi, oyo etalana na Jeriko, pene ya Yordani.
