Numbers 27

1 Then drew near the daughters of Zelophehad, the son of Hepher, the son of Gilead, the son of Makir, the son of Manasseh, of the families of Manasseh the son of Joseph; and these are the names of his daughters: Mahlah, Noah, and Hoglah, and Milcah, and Tirzah.

١ فَتَقَدَّمَتْ بَنَاتُ صَلُفْحَادَ بْنِ حَافَرَ بْنِ جِلْعَادَ بْنِ مَاكِيرَ بْنِ مَنَسَّى، مِنْ عَشَائِرِ مَنَسَّى بْنِ يُوسُفَ. وَهَذِهِ أَسْمَاءُ بَنَاتِهِ: مَحْلَةُ وَنُوعَةُ وَحُجْلَةُ وَمِلْكَةُ وَتِرْصَةُ.

2 They stood before Moses, and before Eleazar the priest, and before the princes and all the congregation, at the door of the Tent of Meeting, saying,

٢ وَوَقَفْنَ أَمَامَ مُوسَى وَأَلِعَازَارَ ٱلْكَاهِنِ وَأَمَامَ ٱلرُّؤَسَاءِ وَكُلِّ ٱلْجَمَاعَةِ لَدَى بَابِ خَيْمَةِ ٱلِٱجْتِمَاعِ قَائِلَاتٍ:

3 "Our father died in the wilderness, and he was not among the company of those who gathered themselves together against Jehovah in the company of Korah: but he died in his own sin; and he had no sons.

٣ «أَبُونَا مَاتَ فِي ٱلْبَرِّيَّةِ، وَلَمْ يَكُنْ فِي ٱلْقَوْمِ ٱلَّذِينَ ٱجْتَمَعُوا عَلَى ٱلرَّبِّ فِي جَمَاعَةِ قُورَحَ، بَلْ بِخَطِيَّتِهِ مَاتَ وَلَمْ يَكُنْ لَهُ بَنُونَ.

4 Why should the name of our father be taken away from among his family, because he had no son? Give to us a possession among the brothers of our father."

٤ لِمَاذَا يُحْذَفُ ٱسْمُ أَبِينَا مِنْ بَيْنِ عَشِيرَتِهِ لِأَنَّهُ لَيْسَ لَهُ ٱبْنٌ؟ أَعْطِنَا مُلْكًا بَيْنَ إِخْوةِ أَبِينَا».

5 Moses brought their cause before Jehovah.

٥ فَقَدَّمَ مُوسَى دَعْوَاهُنَّ أَمَامَ ٱلرَّبِّ.

6 Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,

٦ فَكَلَّمَ ٱلرَّبُّ مُوسَى قَائِلًا:

7 "The daughters of Zelophehad speak right: you shall surely give them a possession of an inheritance among their father's brothers; and you shall cause the inheritance of their father to pass to them.

٧ «بِحَقٍّ تَكَلَّمَتْ بَنَاتُ صَلُفْحَادَ، فَتُعْطِيهِنَّ مُلْكَ نَصِيبٍ بَيْنَ إِخْوَةِ أَبِيهنَّ، وَتَنْقُلُ نَصِيبَ أَبِيهِنَّ إِلَيْهِنَّ.

8 You shall speak to the children of Israel, saying, 'If a man dies, and has no son, then you shall cause his inheritance to pass to his daughter.

٨ وَتُكَلِّمُ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ قَائِلًا: أَيُّمَا رَجُلٍ مَاتَ وَلَيْسَ لَهُ ٱبْنٌ، تَنْقُلُونَ مُلْكَهُ إِلَى ٱبْنَتِهِ.

9 If he has no daughter, then you shall give his inheritance to his brothers.

٩ وَإِنْ لَمْ تَكُنْ لَهُ ٱبْنَةٌ، تُعْطُوا مُلْكَهُ لِإِخْوَتِهِ.

10 If he has no brothers, then you shall give his inheritance to his father's brothers.

١٠ وَإِنْ لَمْ يَكُنْ لَهُ إِخْوَةٌ، تُعْطُوا مُلْكَهُ لِإِخوَةِ أَبِيهِ.

11 If his father has no brothers, then you shall give his inheritance to his kinsman who is next to him of his family, and he shall possess it: and it shall be to the children of Israel a statute and ordinance, as Jehovah commanded Moses.'"

١١ وَإِنْ لَمْ يَكُنْ لِأَبِيهِ إِخْوَةٌ، تُعْطُوا مُلْكَهُ لِنَسِيبِهِ ٱلْأَقْرَبِ إِلَيْهِ مِنْ عَشِيرَتِهِ فَيَرِثُهُ». فَصَارَتْ لِبَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ فَرِيضَةَ قَضَاءٍ، كَمَا أَمَرَ ٱلرَّبُّ مُوسَى.

12 Jehovah said to Moses, "Go up into this mountain of Abarim, and see the land which I have given to the children of Israel.

١٢ وَقَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ لِمُوسَى: «ٱصْعَدْ إِلَى جَبَلِ عَبَارِيمَ هَذَا وَٱنْظُرِ ٱلْأَرْضَ ٱلَّتِي أَعْطَيْتُ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ.

13 When you have seen it, you also shall be gathered to your people, as Aaron your brother was gathered;

١٣ وَمَتَى نَظَرْتَهَا، تُضَمُّ إِلَى قَوْمِكَ أَنْتَ أَيْضًا كَمَا ضُمَّ هَارُونُ أَخُوكَ.

14 because you rebelled against my word in the wilderness of Zin, in the strife of the congregation, to sanctify me at the waters before their eyes." (These are the waters of Meribah of Kadesh in the wilderness of Zin.)

١٤ لِأَنَّكُمَا فِي بَرِّيَّةِ صِينَ، عِنْدَ مُخَاصَمَةِ ٱلْجَمَاعَةِ، عَصَيْتُمَا قَوْلِي أَنْ تُقَدِّسَانِي بِٱلْمَاءِ أَمَامَ أَعْيُنِهِمْ». ذَلِكَ مَاءُ مَرِيبَةِ قَادَشَ فِي بَرِّيَّةِ صِينَ.

15 Moses spoke to Jehovah, saying,

١٥ فَكَلَّمَ مُوسَى ٱلرَّبِّ قَائِلًا:

16 "Let Jehovah, the God of the spirits of all flesh, appoint a man over the congregation,

١٦ «لِيُوَكِّلِ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُ أَرْوَاحِ جَمِيعِ ٱلْبَشَرِ رَجُلًا عَلَى ٱلْجَمَاعَةِ،

17 who may go out before them, and who may come in before them, and who may lead them out, and who may bring them in; that the congregation of Jehovah not be as sheep which have no shepherd."

١٧ يَخْرُجُ أَمَامَهُمْ وَيَدْخُلُ أَمَامَهُمْ وَيُخْرِجُهُمْ وَيُدْخِلُهُمْ، لِكَيْلَا تَكُونَ جَمَاعَةُ ٱلرَّبِّ كَٱلْغَنَمِ ٱلَّتِي لَا رَاعِيَ لَهَا».

18 Jehovah said to Moses, "Take Joshua the son of Nun, a man in whom is the Spirit, and lay your hand on him;

١٨ فَقَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ لِمُوسَى: «خُذْ يَشُوعَ بْنَ نُونَ، رَجُلًا فِيهِ رُوحٌ، وَضَعْ يَدَكَ عَلَيْهِ،

19 and set him before Eleazar the priest, and before all the congregation; and commission him in their sight.

١٩ وَأَوْقِفْهُ قُدَّامَ أَلِعَازَارَ ٱلْكَاهِنِ وَقُدَّامَ كُلِّ ٱلْجَمَاعَةِ، وَأَوْصِهِ أَمَامَ أَعْيُنِهِمْ.

20 You shall put of your honor on him, that all the congregation of the children of Israel may obey.

٢٠ وَٱجْعَلْ مِنْ هَيْبَتِكَ عَلَيْهِ لِكَيْ يَسْمَعَ لَهُ كُلُّ جَمَاعَةِ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ،

21 He shall stand before Eleazar the priest, who shall inquire for him by the judgment of the Urim before Jehovah: at his word shall they go out, and at his word they shall come in, both he, and all the children of Israel with him, even all the congregation."

٢١ فَيَقِفَ أَمَامَ أَلِعَازَارَ ٱلْكَاهِنِ فَيَسْأَلُ لَهُ بِقَضَاءِ ٱلْأُورِيمِ أَمَامَ ٱلرَّبِّ. حَسَبَ قَوْلِهِ يَخْرُجُونَ، وَحَسَبَ قَوْلِهِ يَدْخُلُونَ، هُوَ وَكُلُّ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ مَعَهُ، كُلُّ ٱلْجَمَاعَةِ».

22 Moses did as Jehovah commanded him; and he took Joshua, and set him before Eleazar the priest, and before all the congregation:

٢٢ فَفَعَلَ مُوسَى كَمَا أَمَرَهُ ٱلرَّبُّ. أَخَذَ يَشُوعَ وَأَوْقَفَهُ قُدَّامَ أَلِعَازَارَ ٱلْكَاهِنِ وَقُدَّامَ كُلِّ ٱلْجَمَاعَةِ،

23 and he laid his hands on him, and commissioned him, as Jehovah spoke by Moses.

٢٣ وَوَضَعَ يَدَيْهِ عَلَيْهِ وَأَوْصَاهُ كَمَا تَكَلَّمَ ٱلرَّبُّ عَنْ يَدِ مُوسَى.
