Numbers 36
1 Then came near the heads of fathers, belonging to the family of the sons of Gilead son of Machir son of Manasseh, out of the families of the sons of Joseph, —and spake before Moses, and before the princes, heads of fathers belonging to the sons 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—Unto my lord, did Yahweh give command, to bestow the land as an inheritance, by lot, unto the sons of Israel, —my lord, therefore, was commanded by Yahweh, to give the inheritance of Zelophehad our brother unto 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 When, therefore, unto any one from among the sons of the other tribes of the sons of Israel, they become wives their inheritance shall disappear out of the inheritance of our fathers, and be added to the inheritance of the tribe to which they shall be received, —and so out of the lot of our inheritance, shall it disappear,
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 And when the jubilee shall come to the sons of Israel, then shall their inheritance be added unto the inheritance of the tribe to which they shall be received—and, out of the, inheritance of the tribe of our fathers, shall their inheritance disappear.
eye womatrɔe na mí le Aseyetsoƒe la me o.”
5 Then Moses commanded the sons of Israel, at the bidding of Yahweh saying, —A right thing, are, the tribe of the sons of Joseph, speaking,
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 Yahweh hath commanded, as to the daughters of Zelophehad saying: Unto whomsoever it may be good in their eyes, let them become wives, —save only unto the family of the tribe of their father, let them become wives.
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 belonging to the sons of Israel go round from tribe to tribe, —for the sons of Israel shall, each one, cleave, unto 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 And, every daughter possessing all inheritance from among the tribes of the sons of Israel, unto one of the family of the tribe of her father, shall become wife, —to the intent that the sons of Israel may possess each one 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 and no inheritance go round from one tribe to another tribe, —for the tribes of the sons of Israel shall cleave, each one unto his own inheritance.
Ale domenyinu aɖeke madzo le to aɖeke me ayi to bubu me o.’”
10 As Yahweh commanded Moses, so, did the daughters of Zelophehad.
Zelofehad ƒe vinyɔnuwo wɔ ɖe nu si Yehowa ɖo na Mose la dzi.
11 Thus then did Mahlah, Tirzah, and Hoglah, and Milchah, and Noah, the daughters of Zelophehad, become wives, unto the sons of their father’s brethren.
Zelofehad ƒe vinyɔnu siawo, Mahla, Tirza, Hogla, Milka kple Noa ɖe wo fofo nɔviŋutsuwo ƒe viŋutsuwo.
12 Unto men from among the families of the son of Manasseh son of Joseph, became they wives, —and so their inheritance remained with 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 regulations which Yahweh gave in charge, by the hand of Moses, unto the sons of Israel, —in the waste plains of Moab, by Jordan near 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.
