Numbers 36
1 The family leaders of the clan of Gilead of the tribe of Manasseh went to Moses/me and the other family leaders of the Israeli people.
त्यसपछि योसेफका सन्तानहरूका कुलका माकीरका (जो मनश्शेको छोरा थिए) छोरा गिलादको कुलका पुर्खाहरूका अगुवाहरू आए अनि
2 They said to Moses/me, “Yahweh commanded you, our leader, to apportion the land to the Israeli tribes by throwing (lots/stones that have been marked) to decide [which group would get which area]. Yahweh also commanded you to give the land that belonged to our fellow Israeli Zelophehad to his daughters.
मोशा र इस्राएलका मानिसहरूका पुर्खाहरूका परिवारहरूको प्रमुखहरूको सामु भने, “परमप्रभुले हाम्रा मालिक तपाईंलाई इस्राएलका मानिसहरूलाई चिट्ठाद्वारा भूमिको हिस्सा दिने आज्ञा दिनुभयो । हाम्रो भाइ सलोफादको हिस्सा तिनका छोरीहरूलाई दिन परमप्रभुले तपाईंलाई आज्ञा गर्नुभएको थियो ।
3 But if his daughters marry men from the other Israeli tribes, that land will no longer belong to our tribe. People of other tribes will get it. So some of our land will no longer belong to us.
तर यदि तिनका छोरीहरूले इस्राएलका मानिसहरूको अन्य कुलका पुरुषसँग विवाह गरे भने, भूमिको तिनीहरूको हिस्सा हाम्रा पुर्खाहरूको हिस्साबाट हट्ने छ । यो तिनीहरू सहभागी हुने कुलको हिस्सामा थपिने छ ।
4 When the Year of Celebration comes, [when all the land that has been bought by someone is returned to its original owners], the land that belonged to Zelophehad will belong to the tribes of the men that his daughters marry. So some of our land, the land that we received from our fathers, will be taken from us, [and we will never own it again].”
यस अवस्थामा यो हाम्रो अंशको तोकिएको हिस्साबाट हट्ने छ । त्यस अवस्थामा इस्राएलका मानिसहरूको पुनर्स्थापनाको वर्ष आउँदा तिनीहरूको हिस्सा तिनीहरू जोडिने कुलमा नै गाभिने छ । यसरी तिनीहरूको हिस्सा हाम्रो पुर्खाको कुलको हिस्साबाट लगिने छ ।”
5 Yahweh told Moses/me what to reply to them, so Moses/I said this to them: “These men from the tribe of Manasseh are right.
त्यसैले मोशाले परमप्रभुको वचनमा इस्राएलका मानिसहरूलाई आज्ञा दिए, “योसेफका सन्तानहरूका कुलले भनेको कुरा सही हो ।
6 This is what Yahweh is saying to the daughters of Zelophehad: ‘Each of you may marry anyone you want to, but you must marry only someone from your own tribe.’
सलोफादका छोरीको बारेमा परमप्रभुले यो आज्ञा दिनुहुन्छ, 'तिनीहरू आफूलाई उत्तम लाग्ने मानिससँग विवाह गरून्, तर तिनीहरूले आफ्ना पिताको परिवारभित्र मात्र विवाह गर्नुपर्छ ।'
7 In that way, the land that belongs to Israelis will not be passed from one tribe to another tribe. Each Israeli will keep the land in the tribe that belonged to his ancestors.
इस्राएलका मानिसहरूको कुनै पनि अंश एउटा कुलबाट अर्कोमा बद्ली गर्नुहुँदैन । इस्राएलका मानिसहरूको हरेक कुलले आ-आफ्नो पुर्खाको कुलको अंशलाई निरन्तरता दिनुपर्छ ।
8 A woman who inherits her father’s land may get married, but she must marry someone from her own tribe. In that way, every Israeli will keep the land that belonged to his ancestors.
आफ्नो कुलमा अंश पाउने हेरक महिलाले आफ्नै पिताको कुलको परिवारभित्र मात्र विवाह गर्नुपर्छ, ताकि इस्राएलका मानिस हरेकले आ-आफ्नो पुर्खाहरूबाटको अंश पाओस् ।
9 The land must not be passed from one tribe to another tribe. Each Israeli tribe must keep the land that it received from its ancestors.”
कुनै पनि हिस्सा एउटा कुलबाट अर्कोमा बद्ली गर्नुहुँदैन । इस्राएलका मानिसको कुलको हरेकले आ-आफ्नो अंश सुरक्षित राख्नुपर्छ ।”
10 Zelophehad’s daughters obeyed what Yahweh told Moses/me.
त्यसैले सलोफादका छोरीहरूले परमप्रभुले आज्ञा गर्नुभएबमोजिम गरे ।
11 The five daughters—Mahlah, Tirzah, Hoglah, Milcah and Noah—married their cousins, their father’s relatives.
सलोफादका छोरी महला, तिर्सा, होग्ला, मिल्का र नोआहले मनश्शेका सन्तानहरूसँग विवाह गरे ।
12 The men whom they married were from the tribe of Manasseh, so their land continued to belong to their father’s family and tribe.
तिनीहरूले योसेफका छोरा मनश्शेका सन्तानहरूका कुलहरूमा विवाह गरे । यसरी तिनीहरूको हिस्सा तिनीहरूको पिताको कुलभित्र नै रह्यो ।
13 Those were the commands [DOU] that Yahweh gave to Moses/me to tell to the Israelis, while they/we were on the plains of the Moab region, close to the Jordan River, across from Jericho.
परमप्रभुले मोशाद्वारा यरीहोमा यर्दन नजिक मोआबको मैदानमा इस्राएलका मानिसहरूलाई दिनुभएका आज्ञाहरू र नियमहरू यिनै हुन् ।
