< Numbers 27 >
1 Then drew near the daughters of Zelophehad, the son of Hepher, the son of Gilead, the son of Machir, 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.
योसेफका छोरा मनश्शेका कुलका, मनश्शेका छोरा माकीर, माकीरका छोरा गिलेद, गिलेदका छोरा हेपेर, हेपेरका छोरा सलोफादका छोरीहरू मोशाकहाँ आए । तिनका छोरीहरूका नाउँ यिनै थिएः महला, नोआह, होग्ला, मिल्का र तिर्सा ।
2 And 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,
तिनीहरू भेट हुने पालको प्रवेश-द्वारमा मोशा, पुजारी एलाजार, अगुवाहरू र सारा समुदायको सामु खडा भए ।
3 Our father died in the wilderness, and he was not among the company of them that gathered themselves together against the LORD in the company of Korah: but he died in his own sin; and he had no sons.
तिनीहरूले भने, “हाम्रा बुबा मरुभूमिमा मरे । तिनी परमप्रभुको विरुद्धमा विद्रोह गर्ने कोरहको दलमा थिएनन् । तिनी आफ्नै पापको कारण मरे र तिनका कुनै छोराहरू छैनन् ।
4 Why should the name of our father be taken away from among his family, because he had no son? Give unto us a possession among the brethren of our father.
तिनका छोराहरू नभएकै कारण हाम्रा बुबाको नाउँ तिनका कुलका सदस्यहरूको बिचबाट किन निर्मूल गर्ने? हामीहरूलाई हाम्रा बुबाका नातेदारहरूमाझ जग्गा दिनुहोस् ।”
5 And Moses brought their cause before the LORD.
त्यसैले मोशाले तिनीहरूको विषयलाई परमप्रभुकहाँ ल्याए ।
6 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
परमप्रभुले मोशालाई भन्नुभयो,
7 The daughters of Zelophehad speak right: thou shalt surely give them a possession of an inheritance among their father’s brethren; and thou shalt cause the inheritance of their father to pass unto them.
“सलोफादका छोरीहरूले ठिकै भनिरहेका छन् । तैँले तिनीहरूलाई तिनीहरूका बुबाका नातेदारहरूमाझ उत्तराधिकारको रूपमा अंश दिनुपर्छ र तिनीहरूका बुबाको उत्तराधिकार तिनीहरूकै स्वामित्वमा रहोस् भनी तैँले निश्चय गर्नुपर्छ ।
8 And thou shalt speak unto the children of Israel, saying, If a man die, and have no son, then ye shall cause his inheritance to pass unto his daughter.
तैँले इस्राएलका मानिसहरूलाई भन्, 'यदि कुनै मानिस मर्छ र त्यसको छोरा छैन भने, तिमीहरूले त्यसको सम्पत्ति त्यसकी छोरीलाई दिनुपर्छ ।
9 And if he have no daughter, then ye shall give his inheritance unto his brethren.
यदि त्यसकी छोरी छैन भने, तिमीहरूले त्यसको अंश त्यसको आफ्नो भाइलाई दिनुपर्छ ।
10 And if he have no brethren, then ye shall give his inheritance unto his father’s brethren.
यदि त्यसको भाइ छैन भने, तिमीहरूले त्यसको अंश त्यसका बुबाका भाइहरूलाई दिनुपर्छ ।
11 And if his father have no brethren, then ye shall give his inheritance unto his kinsman that is next to him of his family, and he shall possess it: and it shall be unto the children of Israel a statute of judgment, as the LORD commanded Moses.
यदि त्यसका बुबाका भाइहरू छैनन् भने, तिमीहरूले त्यसको अंश त्यसको कुलको सबैभन्दा नजिकको नातेदारलाई दिनुपर्छ । त्यसले त्यो आफ्नो निम्ति ग्रहण गर्नुपर्छ । यो परमप्रभुले मलाई आज्ञा गर्नुभएअनुसार इस्राएलका मानिसहरूका निम्ति आदेशद्वारा स्थापित गरिएको नियम हुने छ' ।”
12 And the LORD said unto Moses, Get thee up into this mountain of Abarim, and behold the land which I have given unto the children of Israel.
परमप्रभुले मोशालाई भन्नुभयो, “अबारीम पर्वतमाथि जा र मैले इस्राएलका मानिसहरूलाई दिएको भूमिलाई हेर् ।
13 And when thou hast seen it, thou also shalt be gathered unto thy people, as Aaron thy brother was gathered:
तैँले यसलाई हेरेपछि तँ पनि तेरा दाजु हारूनजस्तै तेरा मानिसहरूकहाँ जानुपर्छ ।
14 because ye 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.)
तिमीहरू दुवै जनाले सीनको मरुभूमिमा मेरो आज्ञा विरुद्ध विद्रोह गरेको हुनाले यस्तो हुने छ । त्यहाँ चट्टानबाट पानी बगेर निस्कँदा तिमीहरूका रिसमा तिमीहरूले सारा समुदायको नजरमा पवित्र जनको रूपमा मलाई आदर गर्न चुक्यौ ।” यो घटना सीनको मरूभूमिको कादेशको मेरीबाको पानीमा भएको थियो ।
15 And Moses spake unto the LORD, saying,
त्यसपछि मोशाले परमप्रभुलाई भने,
16 Let the LORD, the God of the spirits of all flesh, appoint a man over the congregation,
“हे सबै मानव-जातिका आत्माका परमप्रभु परमेश्वर, समुदायमाथि एक जना मानिस नियुक्त गर्नुहोस्,
17 which may go out before them, and which may come in before them, and which may lead them out, and which may bring them in; that the congregation of the LORD be not as sheep which have no shepherd.
एउटा यस्तो मानिस जो तिनीहरूको अघिअघि बाहिर जाओस् र भित्र आओस् अनि तिनीहरूलाई बाहिर जाँदा र भित्र आउँदा नेतृत्व गरोस्, ताकि तपाईंका समुदाय गोठालोविनाका भेडाहरूजस्ता नहोऊन् ।”
18 And the LORD said unto Moses, Take thee Joshua the son of Nun, a man in whom is the spirit, and lay thine hand upon him;
परमप्रभुले मोशालाई भन्नुभयो, “नूनका छोरा यहोशूलाई ले, एउटा मानिस जसमा मेरो आत्मा छ र त्यसमाथि तेरो हात राख् ।
19 and set him before Eleazar the priest, and before all the congregation; and give him a charge in their sight.
त्यसलाई पुजारी एलाजार र सबै समुदाय सामु राख् र तिनीहरूको सामुन्ने नै तिनीहरूलाई नेतृत्व गर्न त्यसलाई आज्ञा दे ।
20 And thou shalt put of thine honour upon him, that all the congregation of the children of Israel may obey.
तैँले तेरो केही अधिकार त्यसलाई दिनुपर्छ, ताकि इस्राएलका मानिसहरूका सबै समुदायले तिनको आज्ञा पालन गरून् ।
21 And he shall stand before Eleazar the priest, who shall inquire for him by the judgment of the Urim before the LORD: 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.
त्यो ऊरीमको निर्णयद्वारा आफ्नो निम्ति मेरो इच्छा खोज्न पुजारी एलाजारको सामु जाने छ । त्यो र इस्राएलका सबै मानिस अर्थात् सारा समुदाय त्यसको आज्ञामा नै बाहिर जाने छन् र भित्र आउने छन् ।”
22 And Moses did as the LORD commanded him: and he took Joshua, and set him before Eleazar the priest, and before all the congregation:
त्यसैले मोशाले परमप्रभुले तिनलाई आज्ञा गर्नुभएबमोजिम गरे । तिनले यहोशूलाई लिए र पुजारी एलाजार र सारा समुदायको सामु राखे ।
23 and he laid his hands upon him, and gave him a charge, as the LORD spake by the hand of Moses.
तिनले उनीमाथि आफ्ना हात राखे र परमप्रभुले तिनलाई आज्ञा गर्नुभएझैँ नेतृत्व गर्न उनलाई आज्ञा दिए ।
