Numbers 27
1 Then 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 came near. These are the names of his daughters: Mahlah, Noah, Hoglah, Milcah, and Tirzah.
Lè sa a, te gen nan branch fanmi Manase a senk fi, Mala, Noa, Ogla, Milka ak Tiza. Yo tout te pitit fi Zelochad. Zelochad sa a te pitit gason Efè. Efè te pitit gason Galarad, ki te pitit gason Maki, ki li menm te pitit gason Manase, ki te pitit gason Jozèf.
2 They stood before Moses, before Eleazar the priest, and before the princes and all the congregation, at the door of the Tent of Meeting, saying,
Medam yo vini, yo kanpe devan Moyiz ak Eleaza, prèt la, devan chèf fanmi yo ak devan tout pèp la, devan pòt Tant Randevou a, epi yo di:
3 “Our father died in the wilderness. He was not amongst the company of those who gathered themselves together against the LORD in the company of Korah, but he died in his own sin. He had no sons.
-Papa nou mouri nan dezè a san li pa kite okenn pitit gason. Li pa t' fè pati bann moun Kore yo ki te revòlte kont Seyè a. Se poutèt pwòp peche pa l' yo kifè li mouri san li pa t' gen tan gen pitit gason.
4 Why should the name of our father be taken away from amongst his family, because he had no son? Give to us a possession amongst the brothers of our father.”
Se pa paske papa nou pa t' gen pitit gason kifè pou non li disparèt nan fanmi an. Ban nou yon pòsyon tè tou nan mitan fanmi papa nou.
5 Moses brought their cause before the LORD.
Moyiz al pale koze a avèk Seyè a.
6 The LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
Seyè a di l' konsa;
7 “The daughters of Zelophehad speak right. You shall surely give them a possession of an inheritance amongst their father’s brothers. You shall cause the inheritance of their father to pass to them.
-Pitit fi Zelochad yo gen rezon. W'a ba yo yon pòsyon tè ki va rete pou yo nan mitan fanmi papa yo. W'a ba yo pòsyon tè ki te pou papa yo a.
8 You shall speak to the children of Israel, saying, ‘If a man dies, and has no son, then you shall cause his inheritance to pass to his daughter.
Apre sa, w'a pale ak moun pèp Izrayèl yo, w'a di yo konsa: Si yon moun mouri san li pa kite pitit gason, n'a renmèt pòsyon tè pa l' la bay pitit fi li yo.
9 If he has no daughter, then you shall give his inheritance to his brothers.
Si li pa gen pitit fi, n'a renmèt pòsyon tè pa l' la bay frè l' yo.
10 If he has no brothers, then you shall give his inheritance to his father’s brothers.
Si li pa gen frè, n'a renmèt tè a bay frè papa l' yo.
11 If his father has no brothers, then you shall give his inheritance to his kinsman who is next to him of his family, and he shall possess it. This shall be a statute and ordinance for the children of Israel, as the LORD commanded Moses.’”
Si papa l' pa t' gen frè, n'a renmèt li bay fanmi pi pre l' la. Epi tè a va rete pou li. Se pou moun pèp Izrayèl yo swiv regleman sa a tankou yon lwa, jan mwen menm Seyè a, mwen te bay Moyiz lòd la.
12 The LORD said to Moses, “Go up into this mountain of Abarim, and see the land which I have given to the children of Israel.
Seyè a di Moyiz konsa: -Moute sou mòn Abarim. Voye je ou gade peyi mwen pral bay moun pèp Izrayèl yo.
13 When you have seen it, you also shall be gathered to your people, as Aaron your brother was gathered;
Lè w'a fin wè li, ou pral mouri, tankou Arawon, frè ou la.
14 because in the strife of the congregation, you rebelled against my word in the wilderness of Zin, to honour me as holy at the waters before their eyes.” (These are the waters of Meribah of Kadesh in the wilderness of Zin.)
paske nou tou de nou pa t' fè sa m' te di nou fè a nan dezè Zin lan. Lè pèp la t'ap chache m' kont bò sous dlo Meriba yo, nou te refize kite m' fè yo wè pouvwa mwen nan zafè dlo a. (Meriba se sous dlo bò Kadès nan dezè Zin lan.)
15 Moses spoke to the LORD, saying,
Lè sa a, Moyiz pale ak Seyè a, li di l' konsa:
16 “Let the LORD, the God of the spirits of all flesh, appoint a man over the congregation,
-O Seyè, Bondye ki bay tout moun lavi, tanpri, chwazi yon nonm ki ka mennen pèp la,
17 who may go out before them, and who may come in before them, and who may lead them out, and who may bring them in, that the congregation of the LORD may not be as sheep which have no shepherd.”
yon nonm ki ka mache alatèt yo nan tout antre soti yo, pou pèp ou a, pèp Seyè a, pa rete tankou yon bann mouton san gadò pou okipe yo.
18 The LORD said to Moses, “Take Joshua the son of Nun, a man in whom is the Spirit, and lay your hand on him.
Seyè a reponn Moyiz: -Pran Jozye, pitit gason Noun lan. Se yon nonm ki gen lespri Bondye k'ap travay nan kè l'. W'a mete men ou sou tèt li,
19 Set him before Eleazar the priest, and before all the congregation; and commission him in their sight.
epi w'a fè l' kanpe devan Eleaza, prèt la, ak devan tout pèp la. Epi la, devan yo tout, w'a ba li tout lòd ou gen pou ba li.
20 You shall give authority to him, that all the congregation of the children of Israel may obey.
W'a separe avè l' pouvwa otorite ou genyen an, pou tout moun nan pèp Izrayèl la ka obeyi l'.
21 He shall stand before Eleazar the priest, who shall enquire for him by the judgement of the Urim before the LORD. At his word they shall go out, and at his word they shall come in, both he and all the children of Israel with him, even all the congregation.”
L'a toujou kanpe devan Eleaza, prèt la, ki va sèvi ak Ourim yo pou chache konnen sa mwen vle yo fè. Se konsa, Eleaza va dirije Jozye ak tout pèp la nan tout antre soti yo.
22 Moses did as the LORD commanded him. He took Joshua, and set him before Eleazar the priest and before all the congregation.
Moyiz fè jan Seyè a te ba li lòd fè a. Li pran Jozye, li fè l' kanpe devan Eleaza, prèt la, ak tout pèp la.
23 He laid his hands on him and commissioned him, as the LORD spoke by Moses.
Li mete men l' sou tèt li, epi li ba li lòd li yo, jan Seyè a te di l' la.
