Numbers 27
1 Then came the daughters of Zelophehad, the sonne of Hepher, the sonne of Gilead, the sonne of Machir, the sonne of Manasseh, of the familie of Manasseh, the sonne of Ioseph (and the names of his daughters were these, Mahlah, Noah and Hoglah, and Milcah, and Tirzah)
Na rĩrĩ, airĩtu acio a Zelofehadi mũrũ wa Heferi mũrũ wa Gileadi, mũrũ wa Makiru, mũrũ wa Manase maarĩ a mbarĩ cia Manase mũrũ wa Jusufu. Marĩĩtwa ma airĩtu acio maarĩ Mahala, na Noa, na Hogila, na Milika, na Tiriza. Nĩmathiire, magĩkuhĩrĩria
2 And stoode before Moses, and before Eleazar the Priest, and before the Princes, and all the assemblie, at the doore of the Tabernacle of the Congregation, saying,
itoonyero rĩa Hema-ya-Gũtũnganwo, makĩrũgama mbere ya Musa, na Eleazaru ũrĩa mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai, na mbere ya atongoria, o na kĩũngano gĩothe gĩa Isiraeli, makiuga atĩrĩ,
3 Our father dyed in the wildernes, and he was not among the assemblie of them that were assembled against the Lord in the companie of Korah, but died in his sinne, and had no sonnes.
“Ithe witũ aakuĩrĩire werũ-inĩ. Ndaarĩ ũmwe wa arũmĩrĩri a Kora, arĩa manyiitanire mokĩrĩre Jehova, no aakuire nĩ ũndũ wa mehia make mwene na ndaarĩ na aanake.
4 Wherefore should the name of our father be taken away from among his familie, because he hath no sonne? giue vs a possession among the brethren of our father.
Nĩ kĩĩ gĩgũtũma rĩĩtwa rĩa awa rĩniinwo mbarĩ-inĩ yao, nĩ ũndũ atĩ ndaarĩ na mwanake? Tũhei igai hamwe na andũ a nyũmba ya ithe witũ.”
5 Then Moses brought their cause before the Lord.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Musa agĩtwarĩra Jehova ũhoro ũcio wao,
6 And the Lord spake vnto Moses, saying,
nake Jehova akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ,
7 The daughters of Zelophehad speake right: thou shalt giue them a possession to inherite among their fathers brethren, and shalt turne the inheritance of their father vnto them.
“Ũguo airĩtu a Zelofehadi maroiga nĩ kĩhooto. Ti-itherũ nĩ wega ũmaheanĩrie igai rĩao na andũ a nyũmba ya ithe wao, o narĩo igai rĩa ithe wao ũmahe.
8 Also thou shalt speake vnto the children of Israel, saying, If a man die and haue no sonne, then ye shall turne his inheritaunce vnto his daughter.
“Ĩra andũ a Isiraeli atĩrĩ, ‘Mũndũ angĩkua na ndatige mwana wa kahĩĩ, mwarĩ nĩaheo igai rĩake.
9 And if he haue no daughter, ye shall giue his inheritance vnto his brethren.
Angĩgakorwo atarĩ na mũirĩtu-rĩ, heagai ariũ a nyina igai rĩake.
10 And if he haue no brethren, ye shall giue his inheritance vnto his fathers brethren.
Angĩgakorwo atarĩ na ariũ a nyina-rĩ, heagai ariũ a nyina na ithe igai rĩake.
11 And if his father haue no brethren, ye shall giue his inheritance vnto his next kinsman of his familie, and he shall possesse it: and this shall be vnto the children of Israel a law of iudgement, as the Lord hath commanded Moses.
Angĩkorwo ithe ndaarĩ na ariũ a nyina-rĩ, heagai mũndũ wa mbarĩ yao ũrĩa marĩ a igai rĩake, nĩguo rĩtuĩke rĩake. Ũndũ ũcio ũgũtuĩka watho wa kũrũmagĩrĩrwo nĩ andũ a Isiraeli, o ta ũrĩa Jehova aathire Musa.’”
12 Againe the Lord said vnto Moses, Go vp into this mount of Abarim, and behold ye lande which I haue giuen vnto the children of Israel.
Ningĩ Jehova akĩĩra Musa atĩrĩ, “Ũkĩra wambate kĩrĩma-inĩ gĩkĩ, kũu rũgongo rwa Abarimu, wĩrorere bũrũri ũrĩa heete andũ a Isiraeli.
13 And when thou hast seene it, thou shalt be gathered vnto thy people also, as Aaron thy brother was gathered.
Warĩkia kũwona, we nĩũgũkua o ta ũrĩa Harũni mũrũ wa nyũkwa aakuire, na ũcookanĩrĩrio na andũ anyu,
14 For ye were disobedient vnto my worde in the desert of Zin, in the strife of the assemblie, to sanctifie me in the waters before their eyes. That is the water of Meribah in Kadesh in the wildernesse of Zin.
nĩgũkorwo rĩrĩa kĩrĩndĩ kĩanemeire hau maaĩ-inĩ ma Werũ wa Zini, wee na Harũni inyuĩ eerĩ mũtiathĩkĩire watho wakwa, nĩmwagire kũndĩĩithia nĩguo muonanie atĩ ndĩ mũtheru mbere ya maitho mao.” (Maaĩ macio nĩ marĩa ma Meriba Kadeshi, Werũ-inĩ wa Zini.)
15 Then Moses spake vnto the Lord, saying,
Musa akĩĩra Jehova atĩrĩ,
16 Let the Lord God of the spirits of all flesh appoint a man ouer the Congregation,
“Jehova-Ngai wa maroho ma andũ othe, nĩagĩthuure mũndũ atuĩke mũrori wa kĩrĩndĩ gĩkĩ,
17 Who may goe out and in before them, and leade them out and in, that the Congregation of the Lord be not as sheepe, which haue not a shepheard.
atwaranage nakĩo gĩkiumagara na gĩkĩinũka, ũrĩa ũrĩgĩtongoragia gĩgĩthiĩ na gĩgĩcooka, nĩguo kĩrĩndĩ gĩkĩ kĩa Jehova gĩtigatuĩke ta ngʼondu itarĩ na mũrĩithi.”
18 And the Lord said vnto Moses, Take thee Ioshua the sonne of Nun, in whom is the Spirite, and put thine handes vpon him,
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Jehova akĩĩra Musa atĩrĩ, “Oya Joshua mũrũ wa Nuni, mũndũ ũrĩ na roho thĩinĩ wake, na ũmũigĩrĩre guoko gwaku.
19 And set him before Eleazar the Priest, and before all the Congregation, and giue him a charge in their sight.
Mũrũgamie mbere ya Eleazaru ũrĩa mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai, na mbere ya kĩũngano gĩothe ũmũtue mũtongoria wao hau mbere yao.
20 And giue him of thy glory, that all the Congregation of ye children of Israel may obey.
Ũmũhe ũhoti ũmwe waku, nĩgeetha kĩrĩndĩ gĩothe kĩa andũ a Isiraeli kĩmwathĩkagĩre.
21 And he shall stande before Eleazar the Priest, who shall aske counsell for him by the iudgement of Vrim before the Lord: at his worde they shall goe out, and at his worde they shall come in, both he, and all the children of Israel with him and all the Congregation.
Nake arũgamage mbere ya Eleazaru ũcio mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai, ũrĩa ũrĩmũtuĩragĩria ũhoro na ũndũ wa kũũria Urimu mbere ya Jehova. Rĩrĩa aathana, hamwe na kĩrĩndĩ gĩothe kĩa andũ a Isiraeli makoimagara, ningĩ aathana rĩngĩ makainũka.”
22 So Moses did as the Lord had commanded him, and he tooke Ioshua, and set him before Eleazar the Priest, and before all the Congregation.
Musa agĩĩka o ta ũguo Jehova aamwathĩte. Akĩoya Joshua, na akĩmũrũgamia mbere ya Eleazaru ũrĩa mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai o na mbere ya kĩũngano kĩu gĩothe.
23 Then he put his handes vpon him, and gaue him a charge, as the Lord had spoken by the hand of Moses.
Ningĩ akĩmũigĩrĩra moko make na akĩmũtua mũtongoria wao o ta ũrĩa Jehova aathĩte Musa.
