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—

Joseph capa Manasseh koca kah, Manasseh capa Makir kah a ca Gilead capa patoeng Hepher capa Zelophehad canu rhoek te kun uh. A canu rhoek ming he Mahlah, Noah, Hoglah, Milkah neh 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,

Amih te Moses mikhmuh neh khosoih Eleazar mikhmuh ah, tingtunnah dap thohka kah khoboei rhoek neh rhaengpuei boeih kah mikhmuh ah pai uh tih,

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;

“A pa he khosoek ah duek tih amah he BOEIPA aka tuentah kah hlangboel lakli neh Korah kah hlangboel khuiah khaw a om moenih. Amah kah tholhnah dongah duek tih a taengah ca tongpa om pawh.

4 why is the name of our father withdrawn from the midst of his family because he has no son?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”;

Balae tih a cako khui lamloh a pa ming a hma eh? A taengah ca tongpa a om pawt neh a pa kah manuca lakli ah kaimih he khohut m'pae van,” a ti uh.

5 and Moses brings their cause near before YHWH.

Te dongah Moses loh amih kah laitloeknah te BOEIPA mikhmuh la a khuen.

6 And YHWH speaks to Moses, saying,

Te dongah BOEIPA loh Moses te a voek tih,

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 canu rhoek kah a thui te thuem, amih te a napa kah pacaboeina lakli ah rho la khohut te pae rhoela pae. A napa rho te amih taengah mael.

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 ca rhoek te voek lamtah thui pah. Hlang he duek tih a taengah ca tongpa a om pawt atah anih kah rho te a canu taengah mael.

9 and if he has no daughter, then you have given his inheritance to his brothers;

Anih te canu a om pawt atah anih kah rho te a manuca taengah pae.

10 and if he has no brothers, then you have given his inheritance to his father’s brothers;

Anih te manuca a om pawt bal atah anih kah rho te a napa kah a manuca taengah pae.

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.

A napa te a manuca a om pawt atah anih kah rho te a cako khuiah anih neh aka yoei a thii a saa taengah pae lamtah pang saeh. BOEIPA loh Moses a uen bangla Israel ca rhoek ham laitloeknah khosing la om saeh,” a ti nah.

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;

Te phoeiah BOEIPA loh Moses te, “Abarim tlang ah he yoeng lamtah Israel ca rhoek taengah ka paek khohmuen te so lah.

13 and you have seen it, and you have been gathered to your people, also you, as your brother Aaron has been gathered,

Te te na hmuh van phoeiah tah na maya Aaron a khoem uh bangla nang khaw na pilnam taengla na khoem uh ni.

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.

Rhaengpuei kah tohhaemnah dongah Zin khosoek ah ol na koek dongah. Zin khosoek, Kadesh Meribah tui kung, amih mikhmuh kah tui taengah kai he nan ciim ham om ta a ti nah.

15 And Moses speaks to YHWH, saying,

Te dongah Moses loh BOEIPA te a thui pah tih,

16 “YHWH, God of the spirits of all flesh, appoint a man over the congregation,

“Pumsa boeih kah Mueihla Pathen BOEIPA loh rhaengpuei soah hlang pakhat khueh saeh.

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.”

Anih te amih mikhmuh ah vuenva vetih amih mikhmuh ah kunael bitni. Te vaengah amih a khuen vetih amih te a pawk puei bitni. Te dongah amih, BOEIPA kah hlangboel he a dawn pawh boiva bangla om mahpawh,” a ti nah.

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,

BOEIPA loh Moses taengah, “Nun capa Joshua te namah taengla lo. Tekah hlang tah a soah mueihla a om dongah anih te na kut tloeng thil.

19 and have caused him to stand before Eleazar the priest and before all the congregation, and have charged him before their eyes,

Anih te khosoih Eleazar mikhmuh neh rhaengpuei boeih kah mikhmuh ah pai sak lamtah amah te amih mikhmuh ah rhep uen.

20 and have put of your splendor on him, so that all the congregation of the sons of Israel listens.

Na mueithennah te anih taengah na pak daengah ni Israel ca rhoek rhaengpuei boeih loh a ngai uh eh.

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.”

Te vaengah khosoih Eleazar mikhmuh ah pai saeh lamtah BOEIPA mikhmuh ah Urim kah laitloeknah bangla anih te dawt saeh. Amah taengkah Israel ca boeih neh rhaengpuei boeih taengah khaw a ol bangla vuenva uh saeh lamtah anih ol bangla kunael uh saeh,” a ti nah.

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,

BOEIPA loh amah a uen bangla Moses loh a saii. Te dongah Joshua te a khuen tih khosoih Eleazar mikhmuh neh rhaengpuei boeih kah mikhmuh ah anih te a pai sak.

23 and lays his hands on him and charges him, as YHWH has spoken by the hand of Moses.

Te phoeiah tah anih soah a kut a tloeng tih BOEIPA loh Moses kut ah a thui bangla anih te a uen.
