Numbers 36
1 The heads of the fathers’ households of the family of the children of Gilead, the son of Machir, the son of Manasseh, of the families of the sons of Joseph, came near and spoke before Moses and before the princes, the heads of the fathers’ households of the children of Israel.
Atongoria a nyũmba cia mbarĩ ya Gileadi mũrũ wa Makiru, mũrũ wa Manase, arĩa maarĩ a mbarĩ cia njiaro cia Jusufu, nĩmathiire na makĩaria marĩ mbere ya Musa na atongoria arĩa matongoragia nyũmba cia andũ a Isiraeli.
2 They said, “The LORD commanded my lord to give the land for inheritance by lot to the children of Israel. My lord was commanded by the LORD to give the inheritance of Zelophehad our brother to his daughters.
Makiuga atĩrĩ, “Rĩrĩa Jehova aathire mwathi wakwa aheane bũrũri ũtuĩke igai rĩa andũ a Isiraeli na ũndũ wa gũcuukĩra mĩtĩ-rĩ, Jehova nĩagwathire ũheane igai rĩa mũrũ wa ithe witũ Zelofehadi kũrĩ airĩtu ake.
3 If they are married to any of the sons of the other tribes of the children of Israel, then their inheritance will be taken away from the inheritance of our fathers, and will be added to the inheritance of the tribe to which they shall belong. So it will be taken away from the lot of our inheritance.
Na rĩrĩ, mangĩkaahikio nĩ andũ a mĩhĩrĩga ĩyo ĩngĩ ya andũ a Isiraeli, hĩndĩ ĩyo igai rĩao nĩrĩkeherio igai-inĩ rĩa maithe maitũ rĩonganĩrĩrio na igai rĩa mũhĩrĩga ũrĩa makaahikĩra. Nĩ ũndũ ũcio-rĩ, gĩcunjĩ kĩa igai rĩrĩa twagaĩirwo nĩrĩkeherio.
4 When the jubilee of the children of Israel comes, then their inheritance will be added to the inheritance of the tribe to which they shall belong. So their inheritance will be taken away from the inheritance of the tribe of our fathers.”
Rĩrĩa mwaka wa Jubilii wa andũ a Isiraeli ũgaakinya-rĩ, igai rĩao nĩrĩkonganĩrĩrio na igai rĩa mũhĩrĩga ũrĩa makaahikĩra, narĩo igai rĩao rĩeherio kuuma kũrĩ igai rĩa mũhĩrĩga wa maithe maitũ.”
5 Moses commanded the children of Israel according to the LORD’s word, saying, “The tribe of the sons of Joseph speak what is right.
Nake Musa, kũringana na watho wa Jehova, agĩatha andũ a Isiraeli, akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Ũguo mũhĩrĩga wa njiaro cia Jusufu ũroiga nĩ ũndũ wa kĩhooto.
6 This is the thing which the LORD commands concerning the daughters of Zelophehad, saying, ‘Let them be married to whom they think best, only they shall marry into the family of the tribe of their father.
Ũũ nĩguo Jehova athanĩte nĩ ũndũ wa airĩtu a Zelofehadi: No mahikĩre mũndũ o wothe ũrĩa mangĩĩendera, angĩkorwo mekũhika thĩinĩ wa mũhĩrĩga wa ithe wao.
7 So shall no inheritance of the children of Israel move from tribe to tribe; for the children of Israel shall all keep the inheritance of the tribe of his fathers.
Gũtirĩ igai thĩinĩ wa Isiraeli rĩkoima mũhĩrĩga ũmwe rĩtuĩke rĩa mũhĩrĩga ũngĩ, nĩgũkorwo Mũisiraeli o wothe nĩagatũũria gĩthaka kĩa mũhĩrĩga kĩrĩa maagaire kuuma kũrĩ maithe mao ma tene.
8 Every daughter who possesses an inheritance in any tribe of the children of Israel shall be wife to one of the family of the tribe of her father, that the children of Israel may each possess the inheritance of his fathers.
Mũirĩtu o wothe ũkaagaya gĩthaka mũhĩrĩga-inĩ o wothe wa Isiraeli, no nginya ahikĩre mũndũ wa nyũmba ya mũhĩrĩga wa ithe, nĩgeetha Mũisiraeli o wothe atũũre enyiitĩire igai rĩa maithe.
9 So shall no inheritance move from one tribe to another tribe; for the tribes of the children of Israel shall each keep his own inheritance.’”
Gũtirĩ igai rĩkoima mũhĩrĩga ũmwe rĩtuĩke rĩa mũhĩrĩga ũngĩ, nĩgũkorwo o mũhĩrĩga wa andũ a Isiraeli ũrĩtũũragia gĩthaka kĩrĩa ũgaĩte.”
10 The daughters of Zelophehad did as the LORD commanded Moses:
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio airĩtu acio a Zelofehadi magĩĩka o ta ũrĩa Jehova aathĩte Musa.
11 for Mahlah, Tirzah, Hoglah, Milcah, and Noah, the daughters of Zelophehad, were married to their father’s brothers’ sons.
Airĩtu a Zelofehadi, nĩo Mahala, na Tiriza, na Hogila, na Milika, na Noa, maahikirio nĩ ariũ a mũrũ wa nyina na ithe wao.
12 They were married into the families of the sons of Manasseh the son of Joseph. Their inheritance remained in the tribe of the family of their father.
Maahikire thĩinĩ wa mbarĩ cia njiaro cia Manase mũrũ wa Jusufu, narĩo igai rĩao rĩgĩikara mbarĩ-inĩ na mũhĩrĩga-inĩ wa ithe wao.
13 These are the commandments and the ordinances which the LORD commanded by Moses to the children of Israel in the plains of Moab by the Jordan at Jericho.
Macio nĩmo mawatho na matuĩro ma kũrũmĩrĩrwo marĩa Jehova aathire Musa eere andũ a Isiraeli marĩ kũu werũ wa Moabi hũgũrũrũ-inĩ cia Rũũĩ rwa Jorodani mũrĩmo ũrĩa ũngĩ wa Jeriko.
