Ndari 36
1 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.
And the heads of the tribe of the sons of Galaad the son of Machir the son of Manasse, of the tribe of the sons of Joseph, drew near, and spoke before Moses, and before Eleazar the priest, and before the heads of the houses of the families of the children of Israel:
2 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.
and they said, The Lord commanded our lord to render the land of inheritance by lot to the children of Israel; and the Lord appointed our lord to give the inheritance of Salpaad our brother to his daughters.
3 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.
And they will become wives in one of the tribes of the children of Israel; so their inheritance shall be taken away from the possession of our fathers, and shall be added to the inheritance of the tribe into which the women shall marry, and shall be taken away from the portion of our inheritance.
4 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.”
And if there shall be a release of the children of Israel, then shall their inheritance be added to the inheritance of the tribe into which the women marry, and their inheritance, shall be taken away from the inheritance of our family's tribe.
5 Nake Musa, kũringana na watho wa Jehova, agĩatha andũ a Isiraeli, akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Ũguo mũhĩrĩga wa njiaro cia Jusufu ũroiga nĩ ũndũ wa kĩhooto.
And Moses charged the children of Israel by the commandment of the Lord, saying, Thus says the tribe of the children of Joseph.
6 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.
This [is] the thing which the Lord has appointed the daughters of Salpaad, saying, Let them marry where they please, only let them marry [men] of their father's tribe.
7 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.
So shall not the inheritance of the children of Israel go about from tribe to tribe, for the children of Israel shall steadfastly continue each in the inheritance of his family's tribe.
8 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.
And whatever daughter is heiress to a property of the tribes of the children Israel, [such] women shall be married each to one of her father's tribe, that the sons of Israel may each inherit the property of his father's tribe.
9 Gũtirĩ igai rĩkoima mũhĩrĩga ũmwe rĩtuĩke rĩa mũhĩrĩga ũngĩ, nĩgũkorwo o mũhĩrĩga wa andũ a Isiraeli ũrĩtũũragia gĩthaka kĩrĩa ũgaĩte.”
And the inheritance shall not go about from one tribe to another, but the children of Israel shall steadfastly continue each in his own inheritance.
10 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio airĩtu acio a Zelofehadi magĩĩka o ta ũrĩa Jehova aathĩte Musa.
As the Lord commanded Moses, so did they to the daughters of Salpaad.
11 Airĩtu a Zelofehadi, nĩo Mahala, na Tiriza, na Hogila, na Milika, na Noa, maahikirio nĩ ariũ a mũrũ wa nyina na ithe wao.
So Thersa, and Egla, and Melcha, and Nua, and Malaa, the daughters of Salpaad, married their cousins;
12 Maahikire thĩinĩ wa mbarĩ cia njiaro cia Manase mũrũ wa Jusufu, narĩo igai rĩao rĩgĩikara mbarĩ-inĩ na mũhĩrĩga-inĩ wa ithe wao.
they were married [to men] of the tribe of Manasse of the sons of Joseph; and their inheritance was attached to the tribe of their father's family.
13 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.
These [are] the commandments, and the ordinances, and the judgments, which the Lord commanded by the hand of Moses, at the west of Moab, at Jordan by Jericho.
