Numbers 27

1 And they drew near [the] daughters of Zelophehad [the] son of Hepher [the] son of Gilead [the] son of Makir [the] son of Manasseh of [the] clans of Manasseh [the] son of Joseph and these [were] [the] names of daughters his Mahlah Noah and Hoglah and Milcah and Tirzah.

Men Zelofhads Døtre, hvis Fader var en Søn af Hefer, en Søn af Gilead, en Søn af Makir, en Søn af Manasse — de hørte altsaa til Josefs Søn Manasses Slægter, og deres Navne var Mala, Noa, Hogla, Milka og Tirza — traadte hen

2 And they took their stand before Moses and before Eleazar the priest and before the leaders and all the congregation [the] entrance of [the] tent of meeting saying.

og stillede sig frem for Moses, Præsten Eleazar, Øversterne og hele Menigheden ved Indgangen til Aabenbaringsteltet og sagde:

3 Father our he died in the wilderness and he not he was in among the company which gathered on Yahweh in [the] company of Korah for in own sin his he died and sons not they belonged to him.

»Vor Fader døde i Ørkenen — han hørte ikke med til Koras Tilhængere, dem, der rottede sig sammen mod HERREN, men døde for sin egen Synds Skyld — og han havde ingen Sønner.

4 Why? will it be withdrawn [the] name of father our from among clan his for not [belonged] to him a son give! to us a possession in among [the] brothers of father our.

Hvorfor skal nu vor Faders Navn udslettes af hans Slægt, fordi han ingen Søn havde? Giv os Ejendom blandt vor Faders Brødre!«

5 And he brought near Moses case their before Yahweh.

Og Moses lagde deres Sag frem for HERRENS Aasyn.

6 And he said Yahweh to Moses saying.

Da talede HERREN saaledes til Moses:

7 Right [the] daughters of Zelophehad [are] speaking certainly you will give to them possession of an inheritance in among [the] brothers of father their and you will make pass over [the] inheritance of father their to them.

»Zelofhads Døtre har Ret i, hvad de siger; giv dem Ejendom til Arvelod mellem deres Faders Brødre og lad deres Faders Arvelod tilfalde dem.

8 And to [the] people of Israel you will speak saying a man if he will die and a son not [belongs] to him and you will make pass over inheritance his to daughter his.

Og til Israeliterne skal du tale og sige saaledes: Naar en Mand dør uden at efterlade sig nogen Søn, da skal I lade hans Arvelod gaa i Arv til hans Datter;

9 And if not [belongs] to him a daughter and you will give inheritance his to brothers his.

har han heller ingen Datter, skal I give hans Arvelod til hans Brødre;

10 And if not [belong] to him brothers and you will give inheritance his to [the] brothers of father his.

har han heller ingen Brødre, skal I give hans Arvelod til hans Farbrødre;

11 And if not brothers [belong] to father his and you will give inheritance his to relative his near to him from own clan his and he will take possession of it and it will become for [the] people of Israel a statute of judgment just as he has commanded Yahweh Moses.

og har hans Fader ingen Brødre, skal I give hans Arvelod til hans nærmeste kødelige Slægtning, som saa skal arve den. Det skal være Israeliterne en retsgyldig Anordning, som HERREN har paalagt Moses.«

12 And he said Yahweh to Moses go up to [the] mountain of the Abarim this and see the land which I have given to [the] people of Israel.

Og HERREN sagde til Moses: »Stig op paa Abarimbjerget her og se ud over Landet, som jeg vil give Israeliterne.

13 And you will see it and you will be gathered to people your also you just as he was gathered Aaron brother your.

Og naar du har set ud over det, skal ogsaa du samles til din Slægt ligesom din Broder Aron;

14 Since you rebelled against mouth my in [the] wilderness of Zin in [the] strife of the congregation to treat as holy me at the waters to eyes their they [were] [the] waters of Meribath Kadesh [the] wilderness of Zin.

I var jo genstridige mod mit Ord i Zins Ørken, dengang Menigheden yppede Kiv, saa at I ikke helligede mig i deres Paasyn ved at skaffe Vand.« Det er Meribat-Kadesj's Vand i Zins Ørken.

15 And he spoke Moses to Yahweh saying.

Og Moses talte saaledes til HERREN:

16 Let him appoint Yahweh [the] God of the spirits of all flesh a man over the congregation.

»Maatte HERREN, Gud over alt Køds Aander, indsætte en Mand over Menigheden,

17 Who he will go out before them and who he will come before them and who he will lead out them and who he will bring them and not it will be [the] congregation of Yahweh like sheep which not [belongs] to them a shepherd.

som kan drage ud og hjem i Spidsen for dem og føre dem ud og hjem, for at ikke HERRENS Menighed skal blive som en Hjord uden Hyrde!«

18 And he said Yahweh to Moses take for yourself Joshua [the] son of Nun a man whom a spirit [is] in him and you will lay hand your on him.

Da sagde HERREN til Moses: »Tag Josua, Nuns Søn, en Mand, i hvem der er Aand, læg din Haand paa ham,

19 And you will make stand him before Eleazar the priest and before all the congregation and you will commission him to eyes their.

fremstil ham for Præsten Eleazar og hele Menigheden og indsæt ham saaledes i deres Paasyn;

20 And you will put some of majesty your on him so that they may hear all [the] congregation of [the] people of Israel.

og overdrag ham noget af din Værdighed, for at hele Israeliternes Menighed kan adlyde ham.

21 And before Eleazar the priest he will stand and he will enquire for him by [the] judgment of the Urim before Yahweh on mouth his they will go out and on mouth his they will come he and all [the] people of Israel with him and all the congregation.

Men han skal træde frem for Præsten Eleazar, for at han kan skaffe ham Urims Kendelse for HERRENS Aasyn; paa hans Bud skal han drage ud, og paa hans Bud skal han vende hjem, han og alle Israeliterne, hele Menigheden.«

22 And he did Moses just as he had commanded Yahweh him and he took Joshua and he made stand him before Eleazar the priest and before all the congregation.

Moses gjorde som HERREN havde paalagt ham; han tog Josua og fremstillede ham for Præsten Eleazar og hele Menigheden;

23 And he laid hands his on him and he commissioned him just as he had spoken Yahweh by [the] hand of Moses.

og han lagde sine Hænder paa ham og indsatte ham, saaledes som HERREN havde paabudt ved Moses.
