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—
Og nu fremkom Døtrene af Zelafehad, som var en Søn af Hefer, der var en Søn af Gilead, der var en Søn af Makir, Manasse Søn, af Manasse, Josefs Søns, Slægter; og dette var hans Døtres Navne: Mahela og Noa og Hogla og Milka og Thirza.
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,
Og de stode frem for Mose Ansigt og for Eleasars, Præstens, Ansigt og for Fyrsternes og al Menighedens Ansigt, for Forsamlingens Pauluns Dør, og sagde:
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;
Vor Fader er død i Ørken, og han var ikke iblandt det Selskab, som samlede sig imod Herren i Koras Selskab; men han døde i sin Synd, og han havde ikke Sønner.
4 why is the name of our father withdrawn from the midst of his family because he has no son?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”;
Hvi skal da vor Faders Navn udelukkes af hans Slægt, fordi han ingen Søn havde? giv os Ejendom midt iblandt vor Faders Brødre!
5 and Moses brings their cause near before YHWH.
Og Mose fremførte deres Sag for Herrens Ansigt.
6 And YHWH speaks to Moses, saying,
Og Herren sagde saaledes til Mose:
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.
Zelafehads Døtre tale ret, du skal give dem Ejendom til Arv midt iblandt deres Faders Brødre, og du skal lade deres Faders Arv gaa over til dem.
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;
Og til Israels Børn skal du tale og sige: Naar en Mand dør og har ingen Søn, da skulle I lade hans Arv gaa over til hans Datter.
9 and if he has no daughter, then you have given his inheritance to his brothers;
Og dersom han ingen Datter har, da skulle I give hans Brødre hans Arv.
10 and if he has no brothers, then you have given his inheritance to his father’s brothers;
Og dersom han ingen Brødre har, da skulle I give hans Faders Brødre hans Arv.
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.
Men dersom hans Fader ingen Brødre har, da skulle I give hans Arv til hans næste Slægt, til den, som er hans nærmeste paarørende af hans Slægt, og denne skal arve den; og det skal være for Israels Børn en beskikket Ret, som Herren har befalet Mose.
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;
Og Herren sagde til Mose: Gak op paa dette Bjerg Abarim og bese Landet, som jeg har givet Israels Børn.
13 and you have seen it, and you have been gathered to your people, also you, as your brother Aaron has been gathered,
Og naar du har beset det, da skal ogsaa du samles til dit Folk, ligesom Aron din Broder blev samlet,
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.
efterdi I vare genstridige imod min Mund i den Ørk Zin, da Menigheden yppede Kiv, der I skulde have helliget mig for deres Øjne ved Vandet; det er Kivevandet i Kades, udi den Ørk Zin.
15 And Moses speaks to YHWH, saying,
Og Mose talede til Herren og sagde:
16 “YHWH, God of the spirits of all flesh, appoint a man over the congregation,
Vilde dog Herren, som er alt Køds Aanders Gud, beskikke en Mand over Menigheden,
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.”
som kan gaa ud for deres Ansigt, og som kan gaa ind for deres Ansigt, og som kan føre dem ud, og som kan føre dem ind, at Herrens Menighed ikke skal være som Faarene, der ingen Hyrde have.
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,
Og Herren sagde til Mose: Tag dig Josva, Nuns Søn, en Mand, i hvem Aanden er, og læg din Haand paa ham,
19 and have caused him to stand before Eleazar the priest and before all the congregation, and have charged him before their eyes,
og stil ham for Eleasars, Præstens, Ansigt og for den hele Menigheds Ansigt, og giv ham Befaling for deres Øjne;
20 and have put of your splendor on him, so that all the congregation of the sons of Israel listens.
og læg af din Herlighed paa ham, for at hele Israels Børns Menighed maa høre ham.
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.”
Og han skal staa for Eleasars, Præstens, Ansigt, og denne skal efter Urims Vis spørge for ham hos Herren; efter dennes Mund skulle de gaa ud, og efter dennes Mund skulle de gaa ind, han og alle Israels Børn med ham, ja, den hele Menighed.
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,
Og Mose gjorde, som Herren havde befalet ham; og han tog Josva og stillede ham for Eleasars, Præstens, Ansigt og for den hele Menigheds Ansigt,
23 and lays his hands on him and charges him, as YHWH has spoken by the hand of Moses.
og han lagde sine Hænder paa ham og gav ham Befaling, eftersom Herren havde talet ved Mose.
