Numbers 27
1 Then came near the daughters of Zelophehad, son of Hepher, son of Gilead son of Machir son of Manasseh pertaining to the families of Manasseh, son of Joseph, —these being the names of his daughters, Mahlah Noah and Hoglah and Milcah, and Tirzah.
Lè sa a, te gen nan branch fanmi Manase a senk fi, Mala, Noa, Ogla, Milka ak Tiza. Yo tout te pitit fi Zelochad. Zelochad sa a te pitit gason Efè. Efè te pitit gason Galarad, ki te pitit gason Maki, ki li menm te pitit gason Manase, ki te pitit gason Jozèf.
2 So they stood before Moses and before Eleazar the priest, and before the princes, and all the assembly, —at the entrance of the tent of meeting, saying:
Medam yo vini, yo kanpe devan Moyiz ak Eleaza, prèt la, devan chèf fanmi yo ak devan tout pèp la, devan pòt Tant Randevou a, epi yo di:
3 Our father, died in the desert, although, he, was not among the assembly that conspired against Yahweh, in the assembly of Korah, —but, in his own sin, died he; and sons, had he none.
-Papa nou mouri nan dezè a san li pa kite okenn pitit gason. Li pa t' fè pati bann moun Kore yo ki te revòlte kont Seyè a. Se poutèt pwòp peche pa l' yo kifè li mouri san li pa t' gen tan gen pitit gason.
4 Wherefore should the name of our father be withdrawn out of the midst of his family, because he had no son? Give ye unto us a possession, in the midst of the brethren of our father.
Se pa paske papa nou pa t' gen pitit gason kifè pou non li disparèt nan fanmi an. Ban nou yon pòsyon tè tou nan mitan fanmi papa nou.
5 And Moses brought near their cause before Yahweh.
Moyiz al pale koze a avèk Seyè a.
6 Then spake Yahweh unto Moses, saying:
Seyè a di l' konsa;
7 A right thing, are the daughters of Zelophehad speaking: Thou shalt, surely give, them a possession for an inheritance, in the midst of the brethren of their father, —and shalt cause the inheritance of their father to pass over unto them.
-Pitit fi Zelochad yo gen rezon. W'a ba yo yon pòsyon tè ki va rete pou yo nan mitan fanmi papa yo. W'a ba yo pòsyon tè ki te pou papa yo a.
8 And unto the sons of Israel, shalt thou speak, saying, —When, any man, shall die, having no son, then shall ye cause his inheritance to pass over to his daughter.
Apre sa, w'a pale ak moun pèp Izrayèl yo, w'a di yo konsa: Si yon moun mouri san li pa kite pitit gason, n'a renmèt pòsyon tè pa l' la bay pitit fi li yo.
9 And, if he hath no daughter, then shall ye give his inheritance unto his, brethren.
Si li pa gen pitit fi, n'a renmèt pòsyon tè pa l' la bay frè l' yo.
10 And if he hath no brethren, then shall ye give his inheritance unto the brethren of his father.
Si li pa gen frè, n'a renmèt tè a bay frè papa l' yo.
11 And, if his father hath no brethren, then shall ye give his inheritance unto his blood-relation that is near unto him of his family, and he shall possess it, —So shall it serve the sons of Israel as a regulative statute, As Yahweh commanded Moses.
Si papa l' pa t' gen frè, n'a renmèt li bay fanmi pi pre l' la. Epi tè a va rete pou li. Se pou moun pèp Izrayèl yo swiv regleman sa a tankou yon lwa, jan mwen menm Seyè a, mwen te bay Moyiz lòd la.
12 And Yahweh said unto Moses, Go up into this mount of Abarim, —and see, the land which I have given unto the sons of Israel;
Seyè a di Moyiz konsa: -Moute sou mòn Abarim. Voye je ou gade peyi mwen pral bay moun pèp Izrayèl yo.
13 And, when thou hast seen it, then shalt thou also be withdrawn unto thy kinsfolk, —as Aaron thy brother was withdrawn;
Lè w'a fin wè li, ou pral mouri, tankou Arawon, frè ou la.
14 because ye resisted my bidding—in the desert of Zin when the assembly contended, —that ye should hallow me regarding the waters, before their eyes, —the same, were the waters of Meribah, of Kadesh in the desert of Zin.
paske nou tou de nou pa t' fè sa m' te di nou fè a nan dezè Zin lan. Lè pèp la t'ap chache m' kont bò sous dlo Meriba yo, nou te refize kite m' fè yo wè pouvwa mwen nan zafè dlo a. (Meriba se sous dlo bò Kadès nan dezè Zin lan.)
15 Then spake Moses unto Yahweh saying:
Lè sa a, Moyiz pale ak Seyè a, li di l' konsa:
16 Let Yahweh, God of the spirits of all flesh, appoint a man over the assembly;
-O Seyè, Bondye ki bay tout moun lavi, tanpri, chwazi yon nonm ki ka mennen pèp la,
17 who may go out before them and who may come in before them, and who may take them out and who may bring them in, —that the assembly of Yahweh become not as sheep that have no shepherd.
yon nonm ki ka mache alatèt yo nan tout antre soti yo, pou pèp ou a, pèp Seyè a, pa rete tankou yon bann mouton san gadò pou okipe yo.
18 And Yahweh said unto Moses: Take thee Joshua son of Nun, a man in whom is spirit, —then shalt thou lean thy hand upon him;
Seyè a reponn Moyiz: -Pran Jozye, pitit gason Noun lan. Se yon nonm ki gen lespri Bondye k'ap travay nan kè l'. W'a mete men ou sou tèt li,
19 and shalt cause him to stand before Eleazar the priest, and before all the assembly, —and shalt charge him before their eyes;
epi w'a fè l' kanpe devan Eleaza, prèt la, ak devan tout pèp la. Epi la, devan yo tout, w'a ba li tout lòd ou gen pou ba li.
20 and shalt put some of thine honour upon him, —that all the assembly of the sons of Israel may hearken.
W'a separe avè l' pouvwa otorite ou genyen an, pou tout moun nan pèp Izrayèl la ka obeyi l'.
21 And, before Eleazar the priest, shall he stand, and shall ask by him for the decision of the Lights, before Yahweh, —at the bidding thereof, shall they go out, and at the bidding thereof, shall they come in—he, and all the sons of Israel with him, even all the assembly.
L'a toujou kanpe devan Eleaza, prèt la, ki va sèvi ak Ourim yo pou chache konnen sa mwen vle yo fè. Se konsa, Eleaza va dirije Jozye ak tout pèp la nan tout antre soti yo.
22 And Moses did as Yahweh commanded him, —and took Joshua, and caused him to stand before Eleazar the priest, and before all the assembly;
Moyiz fè jan Seyè a te ba li lòd fè a. Li pran Jozye, li fè l' kanpe devan Eleaza, prèt la, ak tout pèp la.
23 and leaned his hands upon him and charged him, —As Yahweh spake by the hand of Moses.
Li mete men l' sou tèt li, epi li ba li lòd li yo, jan Seyè a te di l' la.
