Resansman 27
1 Alò fis Tselophchad yo, fis a Hépher a, fis a Galaad la, fis a Makir a, fis a Manassé a, nan fanmi a Manassé, fis a Joseph la, te vin rapwoche; epi sila yo se non a fi li yo: Machia, Noe, Hogla, Milca, ak Thirtsa,
Then drew near 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 were the names of his daughters: Mahlah, Noah, and Hoglah, and Milcah, and Tirzah.
2 Yo te kanpe devan Moïse ak Éléazar, prèt la, ak devan chèf a tout kongregasyon yo, nan pòtay a tant asanble a, e te di:
And they stood before Moses, and before Eleazar the priest, and before the princes and the whole assembly, at the entrance of the tent of meeting, saying,
3 “Papa nou te mouri nan dezè a. Malgre sa, li pa t pami konpanyen a sila ki te rasanble yo menm kont SENYÈ a nan konpanyen a Koré yo, men li te mouri nan pwòp peche pa li. E li pa t gen fis.
Our father died in the wilderness, and he was not in the band of them that banded themselves together against Jehovah in the band of Korah; but he died in his own sin, and he had no sons.
4 Poukisa non a papa nou ta dwe retire soti nan fanmi li akoz ke li pa t gen fis? Bannou yon posesyon pami frè a papa nou yo.”
Why should the name of our father be taken away from his family, because he has no son? Give unto us a possession among the brethren of our father.
5 Alò, Moïse te mennen ka yo devan SENYÈ a.
And Moses brought their cause before Jehovah.
6 SENYÈ a te pale avèk Moïse e te di:
And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,
7 “Fi a Tselophchad yo gen rezon nan sa yo di a. Ou va, vrèman, ba yo yon posesyon eritaj pami frè a papa yo, e ou va transfere eritaj a papa yo a ba yo menm.
The daughters of Zelophehad speak 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 unto them.
8 “Anplis, ou va pale avèk fis Israël yo e di: ‘Si yon nonm mouri e li pa t gen fis, ou va transfere eritaj li a bay fi li.
And unto the children of Israel shalt thou speak, saying, If a man die, and have no son, then ye shall cause his inheritance to pass unto his daughter.
9 Si li pa gen fi, alò, ou va bay eritaj li a a frè li yo.
And if he have no daughter, ye shall give his inheritance unto his brethren.
10 Si li pa gen frè, alò, ou va bay eritaj li a a frè papa li yo.
And if he have no brethren, ye shall give his inheritance unto his father's brethren.
11 Si papa li pa gen frè, alò, ou va bay eritaj li a a fanmi ki pi prè nan pwòp fanmi li. Li va posede li. Konsa, sa va yon règleman nèt pou fis Israël yo jis jan ke SENYÈ a te kòmande Moïse la.’”
And if his father have no brethren, ye shall give his inheritance to his kinsman that is nearest to him in his family, and he shall possess it; and it shall be unto the children of Israel a statute of right, as Jehovah commanded Moses.
12 Alò, SENYÈ a te di a Moïse: “Monte nan mòn Abarim nan, pou wè peyi ke Mwen te bay a fis Israël yo.
And Jehovah said to Moses, Get thee up into this mount Abarim, and see the land that I have given unto the children of Israel.
13 Lè ou fin wè li, ou va vin rasanble vè zansèt ou yo, jan sa te rive avèk frè ou a, Aaron.
And when thou hast seen it, thou also shalt be gathered unto thy peoples, as Aaron thy brother was gathered,
14 Paske, nan dezè Tsin nan, pandan asanble a t ap fè kont, ou te fè rebèl kont lòd Mwen pou trete Mwen tankou sen devan zye yo kote dlo a.” (Sila yo se dlo a Meriba yo nan Kadés nan dezè a Tsin nan.)
because ye rebelled against my word in the wilderness of Zin, in the strife of the congregation, as to hallowing me in the matter of the water before their eyes. (That is the water of Meribah at Kadesh in the wilderness of Zin.)
15 “Alò, Moïse te pale avèk SENYÈ a. Li te di:
And Moses spoke to Jehovah, saying,
16 Ke SENYÈ a, Bondye a lespri tout chè yo, ta chwazi yon mesye sou kongregasyon an,
Let Jehovah, the God of the spirits of all flesh, set a man over the assembly,
17 ki va sòti e antre devan yo, ki va mennen yo deyò, e rale yo antre, pou kongregasyon SENYÈ a pa devni tankou yon mouton ki san bèje.”
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 assembly of Jehovah be not as sheep that have no shepherd.
18 Konsa SENYÈ a te di a Moïse: “Pran Josué, fis a Nun nan, yon nonm nan sila Lespri a rete a, e poze men ou sou li.
And Jehovah said to Moses, Take Joshua the son of Nun, a man in whom is the Spirit, and thou shalt lay thy hand upon him;
19 Konsa, fè li kanpe devan Éléazar, prèt la, ak devan tout kongregasyon an, e ba li lòd komisyon an devan zye yo.
and thou shalt set him before Eleazar the priest, and before the whole assembly; and give him commandment before their eyes.
20 Ou va mete otorite pa w sou li, pou tout kongregasyon a fis Israël yo kapab obeyi a li menm.
And thou shalt put of thine honour upon him, that the whole assembly of the children of Israel may obey him.
21 Anplis, li va kanpe devan Éléazar, prèt la, ki va fè ankèt pou li selon jijman a Orim nan devan SENYÈ a. A kòmand pa li, yo va sòti e a kòmand pa li, yo va antre, ni li, ni fis Israël yo avèk li menm, tout kongregasyon an menm.”
And he shall stand before Eleazar the priest, who shall inquire for him, by the judgment of the Urim before Jehovah: at his word shall they go out, and at his word they shall come in, he, and all the children of Israel with him, even the whole assembly.
22 Moïse te fè jis sa ke SENYÈ a te kòmande li. Li te pran Josué e te mete li devan Éléazar, prèt la, avèk tout kongregasyon an.
And Moses did as Jehovah had commanded him; and he took Joshua and set him before Eleazar the priest, and before the whole assembly.
23 Konsa, li te poze men li sou li e te bay li lòd komisyon an, jis jan ke SENYÈ a te pale pa Moïse la.
And he laid his hands upon him, and gave him commandment, as Jehovah had said through Moses.
