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)
Hefer a ɔyɛ Manase ba, Mika ba, Gilead ba no babarima Selofehad a wofi Manase mmusua a efi Yosef ase no mmabea a wɔn din ne Mahla, Noa, Hogla, Milka ne Tirsa sɔree.
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,
Wɔbaa Mose, ɔsɔfo Eleasar, mpanyimfo ne wɔn a wɔahyia wɔ Ahyiae Ntamadan no ano no nyinaa anim bɛkaa se,
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.
“Yɛn agya wuu wɔ sare so nanso na ɔnka wɔn a wɔne Kora yɛɛ dɔm tiaa Awurade a enti ɛma wowuwuu no ho. Ɔno ankasa bɔne nti na owui a wannyaw mmabarima.
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.
Adɛn nti na esiane sɛ yɛn agya anwo ɔbabarima nti ne din ayera fi nʼabusua mu? Momma yɛn yɛn agya abusua mu agyapade no bi.”
5 Then Moses brought their cause before the Lord.
Enti Mose de wɔn asɛm too Awurade anim.
6 And the Lord spake vnto Moses, saying,
Awurade buaa no se,
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.
“Asɛm a Selofehad mmabea no ka no yɛ nokware. Ma wɔn ne wɔn agya nuanom no asase. Fa agyapade a sɛ wɔn agya no te ase a anka obenya no ma wɔn.
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.
“Ka kyerɛ Israelfo no se sɛ obi wu na onni mmabarima a ɛsɛ sɛ nʼagyapade kɔ ne mmabea hɔ.
9 And if he haue no daughter, ye shall giue his inheritance vnto his brethren.
Na sɛ onni ɔbabea nso a, ɛsɛ sɛ agyapade no kɔ ne nuabarimanom nkyɛn.
10 And if he haue no brethren, ye shall giue his inheritance vnto his fathers brethren.
Na sɛ onni nuabarimanom a, ɛkɔ ne wɔfanom nkyɛn.
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.
Na sɛ onni wɔn mu biara bi a, ɛkɔ ne busuani bi a ɔbɛn no nkyɛn. Ɛsɛ sɛ Israelfo di saa mmara a Awurade hyɛɛ Mose no so.”
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.
Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Mose se, “Kɔ bepɔw a ɛwɔ Abarim mmepɔw no so na hwɛ asase a mede maa Israelfo no.
13 And when thou hast seene it, thou shalt be gathered vnto thy people also, as Aaron thy brother was gathered.
Sɛ wohwɛ wie a, wubewu sɛnea wo nua Aaron wui no,
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.
efisɛ wɔsɔre tiaa me mmara wɔ Sin sare so hɔ, mo baanu no buu mʼahyɛde so na moanhyɛ me anuonyam sɛ ɔkronkronni wɔ wɔn ani so.” Na ɔretwe nʼadwene aba Meriba nsu “Akoe” a ɛwɔ Kades a ɛwɔ Sin sare so no so.
15 Then Moses spake vnto the Lord, saying,
Mose ka kyerɛɛ Awurade se,
16 Let the Lord God of the spirits of all flesh appoint a man ouer the Congregation,
“Awurade, Onyankopɔn a woyɛ nnipa nyinaa honhom ti, yi obi ma onni dɔm yi anim
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.
a ɔde wɔn befi adi na ɔde wɔn aba mu sɛnea ɛbɛyɛ a Awurade nnipa renyɛ sɛ nguan a wonni ɔhwɛfo.”
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,
Enti Awurade buaa Mose se, “Kɔ na kɔfrɛ Nun babarima Yosua a ɔwɔ akanni honhom wɔ ne mu no, na fa wo nsa to no so.
19 And set him before Eleazar the Priest, and before all the Congregation, and giue him a charge in their sight.
Fa no kɔ ɔsɔfo Eleasar ne nnipa no nyinaa anim na fa ne dwumadi hyɛ ne nsa.
20 And giue him of thy glory, that all the Congregation of ye children of Israel may obey.
Fa wo tumi no bi ma no sɛnea ɛbɛyɛ a Israelfo nyinaa betie no.
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.
Sɛ wohia akwankyerɛ a efi Awurade hɔ a, Yosua begyina ɔsɔfo Eleasar anim, na ɔsɔfo Eleasar abɔ ntonto kronkron de abisa Awurade apɛde. Ɔno na ɔbɛhyɛ ama Israelfo no nyinaa afi adi na wahyɛ ama wɔaba mu.”
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.
Mose yɛɛ sɛnea Awurade hyɛɛ no no. Ɔde Yosua kyerɛɛ ɔsɔfo Eleasar ne nnipa no nyinaa.
23 Then he put his handes vpon him, and gaue him a charge, as the Lord had spoken by the hand of Moses.
Na ɔde ne nsa guu no so, de nʼadwuma hyɛɛ ne nsa sɛnea Awurade nam ne so hyɛe no.
