Numbers 27
1 Then came the daughters of Zelophehad, the son of Hepher, the son of Gilead, the son of Machir, the son of Manasseh, of the families of Manasseh the son of Joseph: and these [are] the names of his daughters; Mahlah, Noah, and Hoglah, and Milcah, and Tirzah.
Og nu fremkom Døtrene af Zelafehad, som var en Søn af Hefer, der var en Søn af Gilead, der var en Søn af Makir, Manasse Søn, af Manasse, Josefs Søns, Slægter; og dette var hans Døtres Navne: Mahela og Noa og Hogla og Milka og Thirza.
2 And they stood before Moses, and before Eleazar the priest, and before the princes, and all the congregation, [by] the door of the tabernacle of the congregation, saying,
Og de stode frem for Mose Ansigt og for Eleasars, Præstens, Ansigt og for Fyrsternes og al Menighedens Ansigt, for Forsamlingens Pauluns Dør, og sagde:
3 Our father died in the wilderness, and he was not in the company of them that assembled themselves against the LORD in the company of Korah; but died in his own sin, and had no sons.
Vor Fader er død i Ørken, og han var ikke iblandt det Selskab, som samlede sig imod Herren i Koras Selskab; men han døde i sin Synd, og han havde ikke Sønner.
4 Why should the name of our father be done away from among his family, because he hath no son? Give to us [therefore] a possession among the brethren of our father.
Hvi skal da vor Faders Navn udelukkes af hans Slægt, fordi han ingen Søn havde? giv os Ejendom midt iblandt vor Faders Brødre!
5 And Moses brought their cause before the LORD.
Og Mose fremførte deres Sag for Herrens Ansigt.
6 And the LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
Og Herren sagde saaledes til Mose:
7 The daughters of Zelophehad speak [what is] right: thou shalt surely give them a possession of an inheritance among their father's brethren; and thou shalt cause the inheritance of their father to pass to them.
Zelafehads Døtre tale ret, du skal give dem Ejendom til Arv midt iblandt deres Faders Brødre, og du skal lade deres Faders Arv gaa over til dem.
8 And thou shalt speak to the children of Israel, saying, If a man shall die, and have no son, then ye shall cause his inheritance to pass to his daughter.
Og til Israels Børn skal du tale og sige: Naar en Mand dør og har ingen Søn, da skulle I lade hans Arv gaa over til hans Datter.
9 And if he shall have no daughter, then ye shall give his inheritance to his brethren.
Og dersom han ingen Datter har, da skulle I give hans Brødre hans Arv.
10 And if he shall have no brethren, then ye shall give his inheritance to his father's brethren.
Og dersom han ingen Brødre har, da skulle I give hans Faders Brødre hans Arv.
11 And if his father shall have no brethren, then ye shall give inheritance to his kinsman that is next to him of his family, and he shall possess it: and it shall be to the children of Israel a statute of judgment, as the LORD commanded Moses.
Men dersom hans Fader ingen Brødre har, da skulle I give hans Arv til hans næste Slægt, til den, som er hans nærmeste paarørende af hans Slægt, og denne skal arve den; og det skal være for Israels Børn en beskikket Ret, som Herren har befalet Mose.
12 And the LORD said to Moses, Ascend this mount Abarim, and see the land which I have given to the children of Israel.
Og Herren sagde til Mose: Gak op paa dette Bjerg Abarim og bese Landet, som jeg har givet Israels Børn.
13 And when thou hast seen it, thou also shalt be gathered to thy people, as Aaron thy brother was gathered.
Og naar du har beset det, da skal ogsaa du samles til dit Folk, ligesom Aron din Broder blev samlet,
14 For ye rebelled against my commandment in the desert of Zin, in the strife of the congregation, to sanctify me at the water before their eyes: that [is] the water of Meribah in Kadesh in the wilderness of Zin.
efterdi I vare genstridige imod min Mund i den Ørk Zin, da Menigheden yppede Kiv, der I skulde have helliget mig for deres Øjne ved Vandet; det er Kivevandet i Kades, udi den Ørk Zin.
15 And Moses spoke to the LORD, saying,
Og Mose talede til Herren og sagde:
16 Let the LORD, the God of the spirits of all flesh, set a man over the congregation.
Vilde dog Herren, som er alt Køds Aanders Gud, beskikke en Mand over Menigheden,
17 Who may go out before them, and who may go in before them, and who may lead them out, and who may bring them in; that the congregation of the LORD be not as sheep which have no shepherd.
som kan gaa ud for deres Ansigt, og som kan gaa ind for deres Ansigt, og som kan føre dem ud, og som kan føre dem ind, at Herrens Menighed ikke skal være som Faarene, der ingen Hyrde have.
18 And the LORD said to Moses, Take to thee Joshua the son of Nun, a man in whom [is] the spirit, and lay thy hand upon him;
Og Herren sagde til Mose: Tag dig Josva, Nuns Søn, en Mand, i hvem Aanden er, og læg din Haand paa ham,
19 And set him before Eleazar the priest, and before all the congregation: and give him a charge in their sight.
og stil ham for Eleasars, Præstens, Ansigt og for den hele Menigheds Ansigt, og giv ham Befaling for deres Øjne;
20 And thou shalt put [some] of thy honor upon him, that all the congregation of the children of Israel may be obedient.
og læg af din Herlighed paa ham, for at hele Israels Børns Menighed maa høre ham.
21 And he shall stand before Eleazar the priest, who shall ask [counsel] for him after the judgment of Urim before the LORD: at his word shall they go out, and at his word they shall come in, [both] he, and all the children of Israel with him, even all the congregation.
Og han skal staa for Eleasars, Præstens, Ansigt, og denne skal efter Urims Vis spørge for ham hos Herren; efter dennes Mund skulle de gaa ud, og efter dennes Mund skulle de gaa ind, han og alle Israels Børn med ham, ja, den hele Menighed.
22 And Moses did as the LORD commanded him: and he took Joshua, and set him before Eleazar the priest, and before all the congregation:
Og Mose gjorde, som Herren havde befalet ham; og han tog Josva og stillede ham for Eleasars, Præstens, Ansigt og for den hele Menigheds Ansigt,
23 And he laid his hands upon him, and gave him a charge, as the LORD commanded by the hand of Moses.
og han lagde sine Hænder paa ham og gav ham Befaling, eftersom Herren havde talet ved Mose.
