Numbers 36
1 The heads of the ancestral houses of the family of the people of Gilead, the son of Makir, the son of Manasseh, of the families of the sons of Joseph, came near and spoke before Moses and before Eleazar the priest and before the leaders, the heads of the ancestral houses of the children of Israel.
Gilead, Makir ƒe viŋutsu, ame si nye Manase ƒe viŋutsu, tso Yosef ƒe ƒome la me ƒe amegãwo tso hlɔ̃ la me va ƒo nu le Mose kple kplɔlawo, Israelviwo ƒe ƒometatɔwo ŋkume.
2 And they said, "Jehovah commanded my lord to give the land for inheritance by lot to the children of Israel: and my lord was commanded by Jehovah to give the inheritance of Zelophehad our brother to his daughters.
Wogblɔ be, “Esime Yehowa ɖe gbe na nye aƒetɔ be wòadzidze nu, ama anyigba la na Israelviwo abe woƒe domenyinu ene la, egblɔ na wò be, nàtsɔ mía nɔvi Zelofehad ƒe domenyinu ana via nyɔnuwo.
3 If they are married to any of the sons of the other tribes of the children of Israel, then will their inheritance be taken away from the inheritance of our fathers, and will be added to the inheritance of the tribe whereunto they shall belong: so will it be taken away from the lot of our inheritance.
Ke ne woɖe srɔ̃ tso to bubu aɖe me la, woatsɔ woƒe anyigba la ayi wo srɔ̃ŋutsuwo ƒe towo me. Le mɔ sia nu la, anyigba si woama na mí la dzi aɖe,
4 When the jubilee of the children of Israel shall be, then will their inheritance be added to the inheritance of the tribe whereunto they shall belong: so will their inheritance be taken away from the inheritance of the tribe of our fathers."
eye womatrɔe na mí le Aseyetsoƒe la me o.”
5 Moses commanded the children of Israel according to the word of Jehovah, saying, "The tribe of the sons of Joseph speaks right.
Tete Mose ɖe gbeƒã Yehowa ƒe ɖoɖo siawo le Israelviwo ƒe ŋkume be, “Yosef ƒe viwo ƒe nya la le eteƒe.
6 This is the thing which Jehovah does command concerning the daughters of Zelophehad, saying, Let them be married to whom they think best; only into the family of the tribe of their father shall they be married.
Nu si Yehowa gagblɔ tso Zelofehad ƒe vinyɔnuwo ŋue nye, ‘Mina woaɖe ŋutsu ɖe sia ɖe si dze wo ŋu, ne ŋutsu la nya tso woawo ŋutɔ ƒe to la me ko.
7 So shall no inheritance of the children of Israel remove from tribe to tribe; for the children of Israel shall all keep the inheritance of the tribe of his fathers.
Le mɔ sia nu la, to la ƒe Israelnyigba ƒe akpa aɖeke mage ɖe to bubu me tɔwo ƒe asi me o, elabena ele be to sia to ƒe domenyinu nanɔ anyi tegbetegbe, abe ale si wònɔ esi womae gbã na wo la ene.
8 Every daughter who possesses an inheritance in any tribe of the children of Israel shall be wife to one of the family of the tribe of her father, that the children of Israel may possess every man the inheritance of his fathers.
Israelviwo ƒe toawo ƒe nyɔnuwo naɖe srɔ̃ le woawo ŋutɔ ƒe towo me, ale be woƒe anyigba madzo le to la me o.
9 So shall no inheritance remove from one tribe to another tribe; for the tribes of the children of Israel shall each keep his own inheritance."
Ale domenyinu aɖeke madzo le to aɖeke me ayi to bubu me o.’”
10 The daughters of Zelophehad did as Jehovah commanded Moses:
Zelofehad ƒe vinyɔnuwo wɔ ɖe nu si Yehowa ɖo na Mose la dzi.
11 for Mahlah, Tirzah, and Hoglah, and Milcah, and Noah, the daughters of Zelophehad, were married to their father's brothers' sons.
Zelofehad ƒe vinyɔnu siawo, Mahla, Tirza, Hogla, Milka kple Noa ɖe wo fofo nɔviŋutsuwo ƒe viŋutsuwo.
12 They were married into the families of the sons of Manasseh the son of Joseph; and their inheritance remained in the tribe of the family of their father.
Woɖe srɔ̃ le Manase, Yosef ƒe viŋutsu ƒe dzidzimeviwo dome, ale woƒe domenyinu la tsi wo fofo ƒe ƒome kple hlɔ̃ la me.
13 These are the commandments and the ordinances which Jehovah commanded by Moses to the children of Israel in the plains of Moab by the Jordan at Jericho.
Esiawoe nye se siwo Yehowa de na Israelviwo to Mose dzi, le esime woƒu asaɖa anyi ɖe Moab gbedzi le Yɔdan tɔsisi la to le Yeriko kasa.
