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.
Ary avy ny zanakavavin’ i Zelofada, zanakalahin’ i Hefera, zanak’ i Gileada, zanak’ i Makira, zanak’ i Manase, avy tamin’ ny fokon’ i Manase, zanak i Josefa (ary izao no anarany: Mahala sy Noa sy Hogla sy Milka ary Tirza),
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,
dia nitsangana teo anatrehan’ i Mosesy sy Eleazara mpisorona ary ny lohan’ ny fiangonana sy ny fiangonana rehetra, teo anoloan’ ny varavaran’ ny trano-lay fihaonana izy ka nanao hoe:
3 "Our father died in the wilderness, and he was not among the company of those who gathered themselves together against YHWH in the company of Korah: but he died in his own sin; and he had no sons.
Ny rainay dia maty tany an-efitra, kanefa tsy mba isan’ ny antokon’ i Kora izay niangona hiodina tamin’ i Jehovah tsy akory; fa matin’ ny fahotany ihany izy, nefa tsy nanan-janakalahy.
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."
Nahoana ny rainay no ho fati-maso eo amin’ ny fokony, na dia tsy nanan-janakalahy aza izy? mba omeo zara-tany eo amin’ ny rahalahin’ ny rainay izahay.
5 Moses brought their cause before YHWH.
Ary nalahatr’ i Mosesy teo anatrehan’ i Jehovah ny tenin’ ireo.
6 YHWH spoke to Moses, saying,
Ary Jehovah niteny tamin’ i Mosesy ka nanao hoe:
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.
Marina ny tenin’ ny zanakavavin’ i Zelofada: omeo zara-tany eo amin’ ny rahalahin-drainy tokoa izy; dia ampandovay ny zara-tanin-drainy izy.
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.
Ary lazao amin’ ny Zanak’ Isiraely hoe: Raha misy lehilahy maty ka tsy manan-janakalahy, dia ny zananivavy no hampandovainareo ny zara-taniny.
9 If he has no daughter, then you shall give his inheritance to his brothers.
Ary raha tsy manan-janakavavy izy, dia ny rahalahiny no homenareo ny zara-taniny.
10 If he has no brothers, then you shall give his inheritance to his father's brothers.
Ary raha tsy manan-drahalahy izy, dia ny rahalahin-drainy no homenareo ny zara-taniny.
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 YHWH commanded Moses.'"
Ary raha tsy manan-drahalahy ny rainy, dia ny havany akaiky azy amin’ ny fokony no homenareo ny zara-taniny, ka izy no handova azy: ho lalàna hitondrana ny Zanak’ Isiraely izany araka izay nandidian’ i Jehovah an’ i Mosesy.
12 YHWH said to Moses, "Go up into this mountain of Abarim, and see the land which I have given to the children of Israel.
Ary hoy Jehovah tamin’ i Mosesy: Miakara amin’ ity tendrombohitra Abarima ity, ka tazano ny tany izay omeko ny Zanak’ Isiraely.
13 When you have seen it, you also shall be gathered to your people, as Aaron your brother was gathered;
Ary rehefa hitanao izany, dia hangonina any amin’ ny razanao koa ianao, tahaka izay nanangonana an’ i Arona rahalahinao;
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.)
fa nandà ny teniko ianareo tany an-efitra Zina, tamin’ ilay nilan’ ny fiangonana ady, ka tsy nanamasina Ahy teo amin’ ny rano teo imasony. (Izany no ranon’ i Meriba any Kadesy any an-efitra Zina.)
15 Moses spoke to YHWH, saying,
Ary Mosesy niteny tamin’ i Jehovah hoe:
16 "Let YHWH, the God of the spirits of all flesh, appoint a man over the congregation,
Aoka Jehovah, Andriamanitry ny fanahin’ ny nofo rehetra, hanendry lehilahy izay hitandrina ny fiangonana
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 YHWH not be as sheep which have no shepherd."
ka hivoaka sy hiditra eo alohany ary hitarika azy hivoaka sy hiditra, mba tsy ho tahaka ny ondry tsy misy mpiandry ny fiangonan’ i Jehovah.
18 YHWH said to Moses, "Take Joshua the son of Nun, a man in whom is the Spirit, and lay your hand on him;
Ary hoy Jehovah tamin’ i Mosesy: Alao ho anao Josoa, zanak’ i Nona, lehilahy izay manam-panahy, ka ametraho ny tananao izy;
19 and set him before Eleazar the priest, and before all the congregation; and commission him in their sight.
ary asaovy mijoro eo anatrehan’ i Eleazara mpisorona sy ny fiangonana rehetra izy, ka mandidia azy eo imasony ianao.
20 You shall put of your honor on him, that all the congregation of the children of Israel may obey.
Dia anomezo azy ny voninahitrao, mba hihainoan’ ny fiangonana, dia ny Zanak’ Isiraely rehetra azy.
21 He shall stand before Eleazar the priest, who shall inquire for him by the judgment of the Urim before YHWH: 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."
Ary Josoa hijanona eo anatrehan’ i Eleazara mpisorona, izay hanadina amin’ ny fitsaran’ i Orima eo anatrehan’ i Jehovah ho azy; araka ny teniny no hivoahany, ary araka ny teniny no hidirany, dia izy sy ny Zanak’ Isiraely rehetra, dia ny fiangonana rehetra.
22 Moses did as YHWH commanded him; and he took Joshua, and set him before Eleazar the priest, and before all the congregation:
Ary nataon’ i Mosesy araka izay efa nandidian’ i Jehovah azy; dia naka an’ i Josoa izy ka nampijoro azy teo anatrehan’ i Eleazara mpisorona sy ny fiangonana rehetra
23 and he laid his hands on him, and commissioned him, as YHWH spoke by Moses.
ka nametraka ny tànany taminy ary nandidy azy, araka ny tenin’ i Jehovah izay nampitondrainy an’ i Mosesy.
