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 to Moses came the daughters of Zelophehad son of Hepher son of Gilead son of Machir son of Manasseh, of the clans of Manasseh son of Joseph. These were the names of his daughters: Mahlah, Noah, Hoglah, Milkah, 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:
They stood before Moses, Eleazar the priest, the leaders, and before all the community at the entrance to the tent of meeting. They 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 wilderness. He was not among those who conspired against Yahweh in the company of Korah. He died for 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 our father's name be taken away from among his clan members because he had no son? Give us land among our father's relatives.”
5 Alò, Moïse te mennen ka yo devan SENYÈ a.
So Moses brought their case before Yahweh.
6 SENYÈ a te pale avèk Moïse e te di:
Yahweh spoke to Moses and said,
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.
“Zelophehad's daughters are speaking correctly. You must certainly give them land as an inheritance among their father's relatives, and you must ensure that their father's inheritance passes on to 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.
You must speak to the people of Israel and say, 'If a man dies and has no son, then you must cause his inheritance to pass to his daughter.
9 Si li pa gen fi, alò, ou va bay eritaj li a a frè li yo.
If he has no daughter, then you must give his inheritance to his brothers.
10 Si li pa gen frè, alò, ou va bay eritaj li a a frè papa li yo.
If he has no brothers, then you must give his inheritance to his father's brothers.
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.’”
If his father has no brothers, then you must give his inheritance to his nearest relative in his clan, and he must take it for his own. This will be a law established by decree for the people of Israel, as Yahweh has commanded me.'”
12 Alò, SENYÈ a te di a Moïse: “Monte nan mòn Abarim nan, pou wè peyi ke Mwen te bay a fis Israël yo.
Yahweh said to Moses, “Go up the mountains of Abarim and look at the land that I have given to the people 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.
After you have seen it, you, too, must be gathered to your people, like Aaron your brother.
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.)
This will happen because you two rebelled against my command in the wilderness of Zin. There, when the water flowed from the rock, in your anger you failed to honor me as holy before the eyes of the whole community.” These are the waters of Meribah of Kadesh in the wilderness of Zin.
15 “Alò, Moïse te pale avèk SENYÈ a. Li te di:
Then Moses spoke to Yahweh and said,
16 Ke SENYÈ a, Bondye a lespri tout chè yo, ta chwazi yon mesye sou kongregasyon an,
“May you, Yahweh, the God of the spirits of all humanity, appoint a man over the community,
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.”
a man who may go out and come in before them and lead them out and bring them in, so that your community is not like 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.
Yahweh said to Moses, “Take Joshua son of Nun, a man in whom my Spirit lives, and lay your hand on him.
19 Konsa, fè li kanpe devan Éléazar, prèt la, ak devan tout kongregasyon an, e ba li lòd komisyon an devan zye yo.
Place him before Eleazar the priest and before all the community, and command him before their eyes to lead them.
20 Ou va mete otorite pa w sou li, pou tout kongregasyon a fis Israël yo kapab obeyi a li menm.
You must put some of your authority on him, so that all the community of the people 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.”
He will go before Eleazar the priest to seek my will for him by the decisions of the Urim. It will be at his command that the people will go out and come in, both he and all the people of Israel with him, the whole community.”
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.
So Moses did as Yahweh had commanded him. He took Joshua and placed him before Eleazar the priest and all the community.
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.
He laid his hands on him and commanded him to lead, as Yahweh had commanded him to do.
