< Numbers 36 >
1 Then the leaders of the ancestors' families of the clan of Gilead son of Machir (who was Manasseh's son), who were from the clans of the descendants of Joseph, came and spoke before Moses and before the leaders who were the heads of the ancestor's families of the people of Israel.
Jatend anywola mar joka Gilead wuod Makir, ma wuod Manase, mane oa e dhout nyikwa Josef, nobiro mi owuoyo e nyim Musa kod jotelo, ma gin jotend anywola mag jo-Israel.
2 They said, “Yahweh commanded you, our master, to give a share of land by lot to the people of Israel. You were commanded by Yahweh to give the share of Zelophehad our brother to his daughters.
Negiwacho niya, “Kane Jehova Nyasaye omiyo ruodha chik mondo opog piny ne jo-Israel kigoyo ombulu, nomiyi chik mondo pok mag owadwa Zelofehad mi nyige.
3 But if his daughters marry men in another tribe of the people of Israel, then their share of land will be removed from our ancestor's share. It will be added to the share of the tribes that they join. In that case, it will be removed from the assigned share of our inheritance.
Koro parane ni onywomgi gi chwo moa e dhout jo-Israel mamoko; to pokgi nogol kuom pok mar kwerewa, mi med libamba mane onywomogi. Omiyo bath pok marwa nomawa.
4 In that case, when the year of Jubilee of the people of Israel comes, then their share will be joined to the share of the tribe that they have joined. In this way, their share will be taken away from the share of our ancestors' tribe.”
Ka Higa mar Piero Abich mar jo-Israel ochopo (tiende ni Jubli), to nokaw girkeni mag-gi kigolo kuom gikeni mar dhoodgi kimedo e dhood joma onywomogi.”
5 So Moses gave a command to the people of Israel, at Yahweh's word. He said, “What the tribe of Joseph's descendants says is right.
Eka Musa nomiyo jo-Israel wach machalo kama kaluwore gi chik mane Jehova Nyasaye omiye: “Gima dhood nyikwa Josef wacho nikare.
6 This is what Yahweh commands concerning Zelophehad's daughters. He says, 'Let them be married to whom they think best, but they must marry only within the family of their father's tribe.'
Ma e chik ma Jehova Nyasaye chiwo kuom nyi Zelofehad: Inyalo nywomgi gi ngʼato angʼata ma gihero moa e dhoodgi.
7 No share of the people of Israel must change from one tribe to another. Each one of the people of Israel must continue with the share of his ancestor's tribe.
Onge pok mar Israel maa e dhoodni to dhi e dhoot machielo, nimar ja-Israel moro ka moro norit lowo mane oyudo koa kuom kwerene.
8 Every woman of the people of Israel who owns a share in her tribe must marry someone from the clans belonging to her father's tribe. This is so that everyone of the people of Israel may own an inheritance from his ancestors.
Nyako moro amora ma oyudo pok mar lowo kaka girkeni e dhood Israel moro amora nyaka nyuom gi ngʼato moa e dhood wuon mare, mondo omi ja-Israel moro amora oyud pok mar wuon mare.
9 No share may change hands from one tribe to another. Everyone of the tribes of the people of Israel must keep his own inheritance.”
Onge pok mano kadhi koa e dhoodni kadhi e dhoot machielo, nimar ja-Israel moro amora nyaka rit lop kwerene.”
10 So Zelophehad's daughters did as Yahweh had commanded Moses.
Omiyo nyi Zelofehad notimo mana kaka Jehova Nyasaye nosemiyo Musa chik.
11 Mahlah, Tirzah, Hoglah, Milkah, and Noah, the daughters of Zelophehad, married descendants of Manasseh.
Nyi Zelofehad miluongo ni Mala, Tirza, Hogla, Milka kod Nowa nonywom gi ominegi ma yawuot owadgi wuon-gi.
12 They married into the clans of the descendants of Manasseh son of Joseph. In this way, their inheritances remained in the tribe to which their father's clan belonged.
Nonywomgi ei anywola mar nyikwa Manase wuod Josef, kendo pok margi nosiko e anywola gi wuon-gi kendo e dhood gi wuon-gi.
13 These are the commands and the decrees that Yahweh gave by Moses to the people of Israel in the plains of Moab by the Jordan at Jericho.
Magi e chike kod buche mane Jehova Nyasaye ochiwo kokalo kuom Musa mondo omi jo-Israel e pewe mag Moab e bath Aora Jordan kama omanyore gi Jeriko.
