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 came the daughters of Salphaad, the son of Hepher, the son of Galaad, the son of Machir, the son of Manasses, who was the son of Joseph: and their names are Maala, and Noa, and Hegla, and Melcha, and Thersa.
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 Eleazar the priest, and all the princes of the people at the door of the tabernacle of the covenant, and said:
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 desert, and was not in the sedition, that was raised against the Lord under Core, but he died in his own sin: and he had no male children. Why is his name taken away out of his family, because he had no son? Give us a possession among the kinsmen of our father.
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.”
And Moses referred their cause to the judgment of the Lord.
5 Alò, Moïse te mennen ka yo devan SENYÈ a.
And the Lord said to him:
6 SENYÈ a te pale avèk Moïse e te di:
The daughters of Salphaad demand a just thing: Give them a possession among their father’s kindred, and let them succeed him in his inheritance.
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.
And to the children of Israel thou shalt speak these things:
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.
When a man dieth without a son, his inheritance shall pass to his daughter.
9 Si li pa gen fi, alò, ou va bay eritaj li a a frè li yo.
If he have no daughter, his brethren shall succeed him.
10 Si li pa gen frè, alò, ou va bay eritaj li a a frè papa li yo.
And if he have no brethren, you shall give the inheritance to 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.’”
But if he have no uncles by the father, the inheritance shall be given to them that are the next akin. And this shall be to the children of Israel sacred by a perpetual law, as the Lord hath 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.
The Lord also said to Moses: Go up into this mountain Abarim, and view from thence the land which I will give to 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 shalt have seen it, thou also shalt go to thy people, as thy brother Aaron is gone:
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 you offended me in the desert of Sin in the contradiction of the multitude, neither would you sanctify me before them at the waters. These are the waters of contradiction in Cades of the desert of Sin.
15 “Alò, Moïse te pale avèk SENYÈ a. Li te di:
And Moses answered him:
16 Ke SENYÈ a, Bondye a lespri tout chè yo, ta chwazi yon mesye sou kongregasyon an,
May the Lord the God of the spirits of all flesh provide a man, that may be over this multitude:
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.”
And may go out and in before them, and may lead them out, or bring them in: lest the people of the Lord be as sheep without a 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 the Lord said to him: Take Josue the son of Nun, a man in whom is the Spirit, and put 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 he shall stand before Eleazar the priest and all the multitude:
20 Ou va mete otorite pa w sou li, pou tout kongregasyon a fis Israël yo kapab obeyi a li menm.
And thou shalt give him precepts in the sight of all, and part of thy glory, that all the congregation of the children of Israel may hear 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.”
If any thing be to be done, Eleazar the priest shall consult the Lord for him. He and all the children of Israel with him, and the rest of the multitude shall go out and go in at his word.
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.
Moses did as the Lord had commanded. And when he had taken Josue, he set him before Eleazar the priest, and all the assembly of the people,
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 laying his hands on his head, he repeated all things that the Lord had commanded.
