Numbers 27
1 And daughters of Zelophehad son of Hepher, son of Gilead, son of Machir, son of Manasseh, of the families of Manasseh son of Joseph, draw near—and these [are] the names of his daughters: Mahlah, Noah, and Hoglah, and Milcah, and Tirzah—
Manasseh capa Makir, Makir capa Gilead, Gilead capa Hepher, Hepher capa Zelophehad, anih ih canunawk loe, Joseph capa Manasseh acaeng ah oh o. Anih canunawk ih ahmin loe Mahlah, Noah, Hoglah, Milkah hoi Tirzah.
2 and stand before Moses, and before Eleazar the priest, and before the princes, and all the congregation, at the opening of the Tent of Meeting, saying,
Nihcae loe amkhuenghaih kahni im thok taengah, Mosi hoi qaima Eleazar, zaehoikungnawk hoi rangpui kaminawk hmaa ah, angdoet o pacoengah,
3 “Our father died in the wilderness, and he was not in the midst of the congregation who were gathered together against YHWH in the congregation of Korah, but he died for his own sin, and had no sons;
kaicae ampa loe praezaek ah duek boeh; anih loe Angraeng ih lok aek kami, Korah hnukbang kaminawk thungah athum ai; anih loe a zaehaih pongah duek moe, capa tawn ai.
4 why is the name of our father withdrawn from the midst of his family because he has no son? Give a possession to us in the midst of the brothers of our father”;
To tiah capa tawn ai pongah, anih ih ahmin to canawk thung hoiah tahmat han boeh maw? To pongah kam pa ih nawkamyanawk hoi nawnto qawk na paek o thoem ah, tiah a naa o.
5 and Moses brings their cause near before YHWH.
To pongah Mosi mah nihcae kawng to Angraeng khaeah thuih pae.
6 And YHWH speaks to Moses, saying,
To naah Angraeng mah Mosi khaeah,
7 “The daughters of Zelophehad are speaking correctly; you certainly give to them a possession of an inheritance in the midst of their father’s brothers, and have caused the inheritance of their father to pass over to them.
Zelophehad canunawk mah thuih ih lok loe amsoem; ampa ih nawkamyanawk salakah nihcae han qawk na paek han oh; ampa ih qawknawk to nihcae han paek paeh.
8 And you speak to the sons of Israel, saying, When a man dies and has no son, then you have caused his inheritance to pass over to his daughter;
Israel kaminawk thung ih, Kami maeto loe, capa tawn ai ah dueh nahaeloe, anih ih qawk to a canu han paek ah.
9 and if he has no daughter, then you have given his inheritance to his brothers;
Canu doeh tawn ai nahaeloe, anih ih qawk to angmah ih nawkamyanawk khaeah paek ah.
10 and if he has no brothers, then you have given his inheritance to his father’s brothers;
Nawkamyanawk doeh tawn ai bae nahaeloe, anih ih qawk to ampa ih nawkamyanawk khaeah paek ah.
11 and if his father has no brothers, then you have given his inheritance to his relation who is near to him of his family, and he has possessed it”; and it has been to the sons of Israel for a statute of judgment, as YHWH has commanded Moses.
Ampa loe nawkamya tawn ai nahaeloe, acaeng thung kazoi koek kami to paek ah; anih mah qawk to toep tih; hae loe Angraeng mah Mosi khaeah paek ih lok baktih toengah, Israel kaminawk hanah kangaih zaehoihhaih atawk ah om tih, tiah a naa.
12 And YHWH says to Moses, “Go up to this Mount Abarim, and see the land which I have given to the sons of Israel;
Angraeng mah Mosi khaeah, Abarim mae nuiah daw tahang ah loe, Israel kaminawk khaeah ka paek han ih prae to doeng ah.
13 and you have seen it, and you have been gathered to your people, also you, as your brother Aaron has been gathered,
To prae na hnuk pacoengah loe, nam ya Aaron lak baktih toengah, nang doeh nam panawk khaeah la tih boeh.
14 because you provoked My mouth in the wilderness of Zin, in the strife of the congregation—to sanctify Me at the waters before their eyes”; they [are] the waters of Meribah, in Kadesh, in the wilderness of Zin.
Israel kaminawk Zin praezaek, Kadesh hmuen ih Meribah tuipuek taengah, laisaep o naah ciimcai ka hmin pakoeh ai ah, ka lok nang aek, tiah a naa.
15 And Moses speaks to YHWH, saying,
Mosi mah Angraeng khaeah,
16 “YHWH, God of the spirits of all flesh, appoint a man over the congregation,
Angraeng, kaminawk boih ih Muithla ukkung Sithaw mah, hae kaminawk,
17 who goes out before them, and who comes in before them, and who takes them out, and who brings them in, and the congregation of YHWH is not as sheep which have no shepherd.”
hma ah caeh thaih kami, akun thaih kami, zaehoi thaih kami, akunsak thaih kami to zaehoikung ah suem nasoe; to tiah nahaeloe Angraeng ih kaminawk loe toepkung om ai tuunawk baktiah om o mak ai, tiah a naa.
18 And YHWH says to Moses, “Take Joshua son of Nun to yourself, a man in whom [is] the Spirit, and you have laid your hand on him,
To pongah Angraeng mah Mosi khaeah, muithla katawn, Nun capa Joshua to kawk loe, a nuiah na ban to koeng ah;
19 and have caused him to stand before Eleazar the priest and before all the congregation, and have charged him before their eyes,
qaima Eleazar hoi kaminawk hmaa ah angdoesak ah loe, kaminawk hma ah tok to paek ah.
20 and have put of your splendor on him, so that all the congregation of the sons of Israel listens.
Israel kaminawk mah a lok tahngaih o hanah, hmuen na sak thaihaih thoemto anih han paek ah.
21 And he stands before Eleazar the priest, and he has inquired before YHWH for him by the judgment of the Lights; at his word they go out, and at his word they come in, he and all the sons of Israel with him—even all the congregation.”
Anih to qaima Eleazar hma ah angdoesak ah loe, qaima mah Angraeng hmaa ah Urim to lokdueng pacoengah, anih han lok takroek pae tih. Anih mah thuih ih lok baktih toengah, anih hoi Israel kaminawk to tacawt o ueloe, anih mah thuih ih lok baktih toengah akun o tih, tiah a naa.
22 And Moses does as YHWH has commanded him, and takes Joshua and causes him to stand before Eleazar the priest and before all the congregation,
Angraeng mah thuih ih lok baktih toengah, Mosi mah sak; Joshua to kawk moe, qaima Eleazar hoi rangpui hma ah angdoetsak.
23 and lays his hands on him and charges him, as YHWH has spoken by the hand of Moses.
To pacoengah anih nuiah ban koeng moe, Angraeng mah Mosi khaeah thuih ih lok baktih toengah, tok to a paek.
