Numbers 36
1 And there came near the chiefs of the divisions of the family of the children of Gil'ad, the son of Machir, the son of Menasseh, of the families of the sons of Joseph; and they spoke before Moses, and before the princes, the chiefs of the divisions of the children of Israel;
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 And they said, the Lord hath commanded my Lord to give the land for an inheritance by lot to the children of Israel; and my Lord hath been commanded by the Lord to give the inheritance of Zelophehad our brother unto 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 And if they become the wives of any of the sons of the [other] tribes of the children of Israel: then will their inheritance be taken from the inheritance of our fathers, and be added to the inheritance of the tribe whereamong they may be married; and from the lot of our inheritance will it be taken away.
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 And whenever the jubilee shall be to the children of Israel: then will their inheritance be added unto the inheritance of the tribe whereamong they may be married; and from the inheritance of the tribe of our fathers will their inheritance be taken away.
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 And Moses commanded the children of Israel by the order of the Lord, saying, the tribe of the sons of Joseph have spoken well.
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 the thing which the Lord hath commanded concerning the daughters of Zelophehad, saying, To those who are pleasing in their eyes may they become wives; however only to the family of the tribe of their father shall they become wives.
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 And the inheritance of the children of Israel shall not pass from tribe to tribe; but the children of Israel shall adhere every one to the inheritance of the tribe of his fathers.
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 And every daughter that inheriteth any possession out of any tribe of the children of Israel, shall become the wife unto one of the family of the tribe of her father; in order that the children of Israel may inherit every one 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 And no inheritance shall pass from one tribe to another tribe; but the tribes of the children of Israel shall adhere, every one, to his own inheritance.
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 Even as the Lord had commanded Moses, so did the daughters of Zelophehad;
Boye, bana basi ya Tselofikadi basalaki ndenge kaka Yawe atindaki na nzela ya Moyize.
11 And Machlah, Tirzah, and Choglah, and Milcah, and No'ah, the daughters of Zelophehad became the wives of the sons of their uncles.
Bana basi ya Tselofikadi: Mala, Tiritsa, Ogila, Milika mpe Noa; babalanaki na bandeko na bango, na ngambo ya libota ya tata na bango.
12 [To persons] of the families of the sons of Menasseh the son of Joseph did they become wives, and their inheritance remained in the tribe of the family of their father.
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 commandments and the ordinances, which the Lord commanded by the hand of Moses unto the children of Israel, in the plain of Moab by 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.
