< Numbers 36 >

1 And the heads of the fathers of the families of the sons of Gilead, son of Machir, son of Manasseh, of the families of the sons of Joseph, come near and speak before Moses and before the princes, heads of the fathers of the sons of Israel,
Awo abakulembeze b’ennyumba z’empya ez’omu lunyiriri lwa Gireyaadi, mutabani wa Makiri, mutabani wa Manase, nga bava mu kika kya Yusufu, ne bajja ne boogera ne Musa n’abakulembeze n’abazadde b’abaana ba Isirayiri.
2 and say, “YHWH commanded my lord to give the land for inheritance by lot to the sons of Israel, and my lord has been commanded by YHWH to give the inheritance of our brother Zelophehad to his daughters.
Ne bagamba nti, “Mukama Katonda yalagira mukama waffe, abaana ba Isirayiri obagabanyizeemu ettaka ery’obusika bwabwe ng’okuba akalulu, era n’akulagira ebyobusika ebya muganda waffe Zerofekadi abigabire abaana be abawala.
3 Now [if] they have been [given] to one from the sons of the [other] tribes of the sons of Israel for wives, and their inheritance has been withdrawn from the inheritance of our fathers, and has been added to the inheritance of the tribe which is theirs, and it is withdrawn from the lot of our inheritance,
Kale, nno, bwe balifumbirwa abalenzi abazaalibwa mu bika ebirala eby’abaana ba Isirayiri, ebyobusika byabwe bigenda kuggyibwa ku by’obusika obwa bajjajjaffe bigattibwe ku by’obusika obw’ebika abawala abo gye banaabanga bafumbiddwa. Kale olwo ebyobusika bye twagabana birituggyibwako.
4 and if it is the Jubilee of the sons of Israel, then their inheritance has been added to the inheritance of the tribe which is theirs, and their inheritance is withdrawn from the inheritance of the tribe of our fathers.”
Awo Omwaka gwa Jjubiri ogw’abaana ba Isirayiri bwe gunaatuukanga, ebyobusika byabwe bigenda kugattibwanga ku bw’ebika abawala abo gye banaabanga bafumbiddwa, n’eby’obutaka bwabwe nga bitoolebwa ku butaka obwa bajjajjaffe obw’ensikirano.”
5 And Moses commands the sons of Israel by the command of YHWH, saying, “The tribe of the sons of Joseph is speaking correctly;
Awo Musa n’addamu abantu ng’ekiragiro kya Mukama bwe kyali n’alagira abaana ba Isirayiri nti, “Abava mu batabani ab’omu kika kya Yusufu kye bagamba kituufu.
6 this [is] the thing which YHWH has commanded concerning the daughters of Zelophehad, saying, To those good in their eyes let them be for wives; only, let them be for wives to a family of the tribe of their fathers;
Kino kye kiragiro kya Mukama Katonda ku nsonga z’abawala ba Zerofekadi: Mubaleke bafumbirwenga omusajja gwe baneesiimiranga, naye omusajja oyo gwe banaafumbirwanga anaavanga mu kika kya kitaabwe.
7 and the inheritance of the sons of Israel does not turn around from tribe to tribe; for each of the sons of Israel cleaves to the inheritance of the tribe of his fathers.
Mu by’obusika bw’abaana ba Isirayiri, tewaabengawo butaka obw’obusika obunaggibwanga mu kika ekimu ne butwalibwa mu kika ekirala, kubanga buli omu mu baana ba Isirayiri anaakuumanga butiribiri obutaka obw’omu kika kye bw’anaabanga asikidde okuva ku bajjajjaabe.
8 And every daughter possessing an inheritance from the tribes of the sons of Israel is for a wife to one from the family of the tribe of her father, so that the sons of Israel each possess the inheritance of his fathers,
Era buli mwana owoobuwala anaasikiranga obutaka mu kika kyonna eky’abaana ba Isirayiri, anaateekwanga okufumbirwa omusajja ow’omu kika kya kitaawe w’omuwala oyo; bwe kityo buli mwana wa Isirayiri anaabeeranga n’obutaka obw’obusika bwa bakitaawe.
9 and the inheritance does not turn around from [one] tribe to another tribe; for each of the tribes of the sons of Israel cleaves to his inheritance.”
Noolwekyo tewaabengawo butaka obw’obusika obuggyibwa mu kika ekimu ne butwalibwa mu kika ekirala; kubanga buli kika eky’abaana ba Isirayiri kinaakuumanga butiribiri obutaka bw’obusika obw’ekika ekyo.”
10 As YHWH has commanded Moses, so the daughters of Zelophehad have done,
Bwe batyo bawala ba Zerofekadi ne bakola nga Mukama bwe yalagira Musa.
11 and Mahlah, Tirzah, and Hoglah, and Milcah, and Noah, daughters of Zelophehad, are for wives to the sons of their fathers’ brothers;
Bawala ba Zerofekadi bano: Maala, ne Tiruza, ne Kogula, ne Mirika, ne Noowa, baafumbirwa batabani ba baganda ba bakitaabwe.
12 they have been for wives [to men] from the families of the sons of Manasseh, son of Joseph, and their inheritance is with the tribe of the family of their father.
Baafumbirwa mu mpya za batabani ba Manase mutabani wa Yusufu, ebyobusika byabwe ne bisigala mu kika kya kitaabwe.
13 These [are] the commands and the judgments which YHWH has commanded by the hand of Moses concerning the sons of Israel, in the plains of Moab by the Jordan, [near] Jericho.
Ago ge mateeka n’ebiragiro Mukama Katonda bye yalagira Musa n’abituusa eri abaana ba Isirayiri nga bali mu nsenyi za Mowaabu ku mugga Yoludaani okwolekera Yeriko.
