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.
Àwọn olórí ìdílé Gileadi, ọmọkùnrin Makiri ọmọ Manase tí ó wá láti ara ìdílé ìran Josẹfu wá, wọ́n sì sọ̀rọ̀ níwájú Mose àti àwọn olórí, àwọn ìdílé Israẹli.
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.
Wọ́n sọ pé, “Nígbà tí Olúwa pàṣẹ fún olúwa mi láti fi ilẹ̀ yìí fún àwọn ọmọ Israẹli gẹ́gẹ́ bí ogún nípa kèké ṣíṣẹ́. Ó pa á láṣẹ fún ọ láti fi ogún Selofehadi arákùnrin wa fún àwọn ọmọbìnrin rẹ̀.
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.
Wàyí, tí wọn bá fẹ́ ọkùnrin láti ẹ̀yà Israẹli mìíràn; nígbà náà a ó gba ogún un wọn kúrò nínú ogún ìran wa, a ó sì fi kún ogún ẹ̀yà tí a fẹ́ wọn sí. Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni a ó sì gbà á kúrò nínú ìpín ilẹ̀ ogún ti wa.
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].”
Nígbà tí ọdún ìdásílẹ̀ àwọn ọmọ Israẹli bá dé, a ó pa ogún wọn pọ̀ mọ́ ẹ̀yà tí wọ́n fẹ́ wọn sí, a ó sì gba ogún ẹ̀yà wọn kúrò lọ́wọ́ baba ńlá wọn.”
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.
Gẹ́gẹ́ bí àṣẹ Olúwa, Mose pàṣẹ fún àwọn ọmọ Israẹli pé, “Ohun ti ẹ̀yà àwọn ìran Josẹfu ń sọ tọ̀nà.
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.’
Èyí ni ohun tí Olúwa pàṣẹ fún àwọn ọmọbìnrin Selofehadi: wọ́n lè fẹ́ ẹni tí ọkàn wọn fẹ́, kìkì pé wọ́n fẹ́ nínú ẹ̀yà ìdílé baba wọn.
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.
Kò sí ogún kan ní Israẹli tí ó gbọdọ̀ kọjá láti ẹ̀yà kan sí ẹ̀yà mìíràn, nítorí gbogbo ọmọ Israẹli ni yóò fi ilẹ̀ ogún ẹ̀yà tí wọ́n jogún láti ọ̀dọ̀ baba ńlá wọn pamọ́.
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.
Gbogbo ọmọbìnrin tí ó bá jogún ilẹ̀ nínú ẹ̀yà Israẹli kọ̀ọ̀kan gbọdọ̀ fẹ́ ènìyàn nínú ẹ̀yà ìdílé baba rẹ̀, kí gbogbo ọmọ Israẹli lè ní ìpín nínú ogún baba wọn.
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.”
Kò sí ogún kankan tí ó gbọdọ̀ kọjá láti ẹ̀yà kan sí ẹ̀yà òmíràn, nítorí olúkúlùkù ẹ̀yà ọmọ Israẹli gbọdọ̀ tọ́jú ilẹ̀ tí ó jogún.”
10 Zelophehad’s daughters obeyed what Yahweh told Moses/me.
Nígbà náà, àwọn ọmọbìnrin Selofehadi ṣe gẹ́gẹ́ bí Olúwa ti pa á láṣẹ fún Mose.
11 The five daughters—Mahlah, Tirzah, Hoglah, Milcah and Noah—married their cousins, their father’s relatives.
Nítorí pé a gbé Mahila, Tirsa, Hogla, Milka, àti Noa, àwọn ọmọbìnrin Selofehadi ní ìyàwó fún àwọn ọmọ arákùnrin baba wọn.
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.
Wọ́n fẹ́ ọkọ nínú ìdílé ìran Manase, ọmọ Josẹfu ogún wọn kù nínú ìdílé àti ẹ̀yà baba wọn.
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.
Wọ̀nyí ni àṣẹ àti ìdájọ́ tí Olúwa ti ipasẹ̀ Mose fún àwọn ọmọ Israẹli ní pẹ̀tẹ́lẹ̀ Moabu lẹ́bàá Jordani létí Jeriko.
