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.
Niheo mb’eo amy zao o anak’ ampela’ i Tselofekhàde ana’ i Kèfere, ana’ i Gilàde, ana’i Makìre, ana’i Menasè ana’ Iosefeo; le zao ty tahina’ o anak’ ampela’eo: i Maklà, i Noae, Koglàe, i Milka, vaho i Tirtsà,
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:
naho nijohañe añatrefa’ i Mosè naho i Elazare mpisoroñe naho o roandriañeo naho i hene valobohòkey an-dalan-kibohom-pamantañañe eo, nanao ty hoe:
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.
Nivilasy am-patrambey añe ty rae’ay, f’ie tsy ni-mpiamo nifanontoñe niatreatre am’ Iehovào, tsy ni-mpiamy Kòrahke, fa nihomak’ amo hakeo’eo avao vaho tsy nanañ’ ana-dahy.
4 Wherefore should the name of our father be withdrawn out of the midst of his family, because he had no son?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.
Aa vaho hasintak’ aman-drolongo’e hao ty tahinan-drae’ay amy te tsy aman’ anadahy? Ehe anoloro lova amo longon-droae’aio.
5 And Moses brought near their cause before Yahweh.
Nente’ i Mosè añatrefa’ Iehovà i saontsy zay.
6 Then spake Yahweh unto Moses, saying:
Le nitsara amy Mosè t’Iehovà nanao ty hoe:
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.
Mivolan-tò o anak’ ampela’ i Tselofekàdeo; toe hitolora’o lova amo lovan-drahalahin-drae’eo, vaho hampandovae’o ty lovan-drae’e.
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.
Le saontsio amo ana’ Israeleo ty hoe: Naho vilasy t’indaty tsy nampipok’ ana-dahy, le hampandovae’ areo o anak’ ampela’eo ty lova’e.
9 And, if he hath no daughter, then shall ye give his inheritance unto his, brethren.
Aa ie tsy aman’ anak’ampela le hatolo’o an-droahalahi’e ty lova’e.
10 And if he hath no brethren, then shall ye give his inheritance unto the brethren of his father.
Aa ie tsy aman-drahalahy, le hatolo’o an-droahalahin-drae’e ty lova’e.
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.
Aa naho tsy aman-drahalahy ty rae’e le hatolo’o amy ze longo marine aze amy fifokoa’ey i lova’ey, vaho ie ty handova aze; ho fañè-jaka amo ana’ Israeleo izay amy nandilia’ Iehovà i Mosèy.
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;
Aa le hoe t’Iehovà amy Mosè: Mañambonea am-bohi’ Abarìme mb’ atoy, le oniño i tane atoloko amo ana’ Israeleoy.
13 And, when thou hast seen it, then shalt thou also be withdrawn unto thy kinsfolk, —as Aaron thy brother was withdrawn;
Aa ihe mahaisak’ aze, le hatontoñe amo longo’oo manahake ty nanontoñañe i Aharone amo rahalahi’eo.
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.
Amy te niola’o i lilikoy amy nifandiera’ i valobohòkey am-patrambei’ i Tsiney, ihe tsy nañonjoñe ty engeko añatrefa’ iereo amy ranoy. (Ie i rano natao Meribà e Kadese am-patram-bei’ i Tsiney.)
15 Then spake Moses unto Yahweh saying:
Le nisaontsy am’ Iehovà t’i Mosè nanao ty hoe,
16 Let Yahweh, God of the spirits of all flesh, appoint a man over the assembly;
Ee te hanendre ondaty hifehe i valobohòkey t’Iehovà Andrianañaharen’ arofo’ ze hene nofotse,
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.
ie ty hiakatse naho hizilik’ añatrefa’ iareo, naho hiaolo iareo te mionjoñe, vaho hampipoly iareo, tsy mone hanao lian’ añondry tsy amam-piarake ty valobohò’ Iehovà.
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;
Le hoe t’Iehovà amy Mosè: Rambeso t’Iehosoa, ana’ i None, ondaty aman’ arofo, le anampezo fitàñe;
19 and shalt cause him to stand before Eleazar the priest, and before all the assembly, —and shalt charge him before their eyes;
avotraho aolo’ i Elazare naho añatrefa’ i valobohòkey re le orizo am-pahaoniña’ iareo.
20 and shalt put some of thine honour upon him, —that all the assembly of the sons of Israel may hearken.
Le andivao ama’e ty lili’o, hivohora’ ty valobohò’ Israele.
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.
Hijohañe añatrefa’ i Elazare mpisoroñe re, le ie ty hañontane ho aze ami’ ty fizakà’ i Orime añatrefan’ Añahare. Amy saontsi’ey ty hiavota’ iareo vaho amy saontsi’ey ty hiziliha’ iareo; ie naho o ana’ Israele mindre ama’eo, i valobohòkey.
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;
Aa le nanoe’ i Mosè i nandilia’ Iehovà azey. Rinambe’e t’Iehosoa vaho nampiheove’e añatrefa’ i Elazare mpisoroñe naho i valobohòkey;
23 and leaned his hands upon him and charged him, —As Yahweh spake by the hand of Moses.
le nanongoa’e fitàñe vaho namantok’ aze, amy natoro’ Iehovà am-pità’ i Mosey.
