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.
Then came near the heads of fathers, belonging to the family of the sons of Gilead son of Machir son of Manasseh, out of the families of the sons of Joseph, —and spake before Moses, and before the princes, heads of fathers belonging to the sons 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—Unto my lord, did Yahweh give command, to bestow the land as an inheritance, by lot, unto the sons of Israel, —my lord, therefore, was commanded by Yahweh, to give the inheritance of Zelophehad our brother unto 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.
When, therefore, unto any one from among the sons of the other tribes of the sons of Israel, they become wives their inheritance shall disappear out of the inheritance of our fathers, and be added to the inheritance of the tribe to which they shall be received, —and so out of the lot of our inheritance, shall it disappear,
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 when the jubilee shall come to the sons of Israel, then shall their inheritance be added unto the inheritance of the tribe to which they shall be received—and, out of the, inheritance of the tribe of our fathers, shall their inheritance disappear.
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.
Then Moses commanded the sons of Israel, at the bidding of Yahweh saying, —A right thing, are, the tribe of the sons of Joseph, speaking,
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 Yahweh hath commanded, as to the daughters of Zelophehad saying: Unto whomsoever it may be good in their eyes, let them become wives, —save only unto the family of the tribe of their father, let them become wives.
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 no inheritance belonging to the sons of Israel go round from tribe to tribe, —for the sons of Israel shall, each one, cleave, unto the inheritance of the tribe of his fathers,
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, every daughter possessing all inheritance from among the tribes of the sons of Israel, unto one of the family of the tribe of her father, shall become wife, —to the intent that the sons of Israel may possess each one the inheritance of his fathers;
9 Gũtirĩ igai rĩkoima mũhĩrĩga ũmwe rĩtuĩke rĩa mũhĩrĩga ũngĩ, nĩgũkorwo o mũhĩrĩga wa andũ a Isiraeli ũrĩtũũragia gĩthaka kĩrĩa ũgaĩte.”
and no inheritance go round from one tribe to another tribe, —for the tribes of the sons of Israel shall cleave, each one unto his own inheritance.
10 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio airĩtu acio a Zelofehadi magĩĩka o ta ũrĩa Jehova aathĩte Musa.
As Yahweh commanded Moses, so, did the daughters of Zelophehad.
11 Airĩtu a Zelofehadi, nĩo Mahala, na Tiriza, na Hogila, na Milika, na Noa, maahikirio nĩ ariũ a mũrũ wa nyina na ithe wao.
Thus then did Mahlah, Tirzah, and Hoglah, and Milchah, and Noah, the daughters of Zelophehad, become wives, unto the sons of their father’s brethren.
12 Maahikire thĩinĩ wa mbarĩ cia njiaro cia Manase mũrũ wa Jusufu, narĩo igai rĩao rĩgĩikara mbarĩ-inĩ na mũhĩrĩga-inĩ wa ithe wao.
Unto men from among the families of the son of Manasseh son of Joseph, became they wives, —and so their inheritance remained with the tribe of the family of their father.
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 regulations which Yahweh gave in charge, by the hand of Moses, unto the sons of Israel, —in the waste plains of Moab, by Jordan near Jericho.
