Ƙidaya 27
1 ’Ya’yan nan mata na Zelofehad, ɗan Hefer, ɗan Gileyad, ɗan Makir, ɗan Manasse, suna cikin kabilan Manasse ɗan Yusuf, suka tafi ƙofar shiga Tentin Sujada. Sunayensu kuwa su ne Mala, Nowa, Hogla, Milka da kuma Tirza.
The daughters of Zelophehad came to present their case. Their father Zelophehad was the son of Hepher, son of Gilead, son of Machir, son of Manasseh, and was from the tribe of Manasseh, son of Joseph. The names of his daughters were Mahlah, Noah, Hoglah, Milcah, and Tirzah. They came
2 Da suka tafi ƙofar shiga Tentin Sujada, sai suka tsaya a gaban Musa, Eleyazar firist, shugabannin da sauran taro, suka ce,
and stood before Moses, Eleazar the priest, the leaders, and all the Israelites at the entrance to the Tent of Meeting. They said,
3 “Mahaifinmu ya mutu a hamada. Ba ya cikin mabiyan Kora waɗanda suka taru suka tayar wa Ubangiji, amma ya mutu ne saboda zunubinsa, bai kuma bar’ya’ya maza ba.
“Our father died in the desert, but he wasn't one of Korah's followers who joined together to rebel against the Lord. No, he died from his own sins, and he didn't have any sons.
4 Me ya sa sunan mahaifinmu zai ɓace a kabilarsa don kawai ba shi da ɗa? Ka ba mu gādo cikin’yan’uwan mahaifinmu.”
Why should our family name be lost simply because he didn't have a son? Give us land to own alongside our uncles.”
5 Saboda haka Musa ya kawo maganarsu a gaban Ubangiji.
Moses took their case before the Lord.
6 Ubangiji kuwa ya ce wa masa,
The Lord gave him this answer,
7 “Abin da’ya’yan nan mata na Zelofehad suke faɗi gaskiya ne. Dole ka ba su mallaka a matsayin gādo cikin’yan’uwan mahaifinsu, ka kuma mayar musu da gādon mahaifinsu.
“What the daughters of Zelophehad are saying is right. You really must give them land to own alongside their uncles—give to them what would have been allocated to their father.
8 “Ka faɗa wa Isra’ilawa cewa, ‘In wani ya mutu ba shi da ɗa, a ba da gādonsa ga’yarsa.
In addition, tell the Israelites, ‘If a man dies and doesn't have a no son, give his property to his daughter.
9 In ba shi da diya, sai a ba wa’yan’uwansa gādonsa.
If he doesn't have a daughter, give his property to his brothers.
10 In ba shi da’yan’uwa, a ba da gādonsa ga’yan’uwan mahaifinsa.
If he doesn't have brothers, give his property to his father's brothers.
11 In mahaifinsa ba shi da’yan’uwa, a ba da gādonsa ga danginsa na kusa, a kabilarsa don yă mallaka. Wannan ya zama ƙa’ida wa Isra’ilawa, yadda Ubangiji ya umarci Musa.’”
If his father doesn't have brothers, give his property his family's next of kin so that they can own it. This is a legal regulation for the Israelites, given as an order by the Lord to Moses.’”
12 Sa’an nan Ubangiji ya ce wa Musa, “Hau bisa wannan dutse a Abarim. Ka ga ƙasar da na ba wa Isra’ilawa.
The Lord told Moses, “Go up into the Abarim mountains so you can see the land that I have given the Israelites.
13 Bayan ka gani, kai ma za ka bi ƙafafun mutanenka, kamar yadda ɗan’uwanka Haruna ya yi,
After you have seen it, you will also join your forefathers in death, just as your brother Aaron did,
14 gama sa’ad da jama’a suka yi tayarwa saboda rashin ruwa a Hamadan Zin, ku biyu, ba ku kiyaye umarnina don ku ɗaukaka ni matsayin mai tsarki, a gabansu ba.” (Waɗannan su ne ruwaye na Meriba da Kadesh, a Hamadan Zin.)
because when the Israelites complained in the Desert of Zin, you both rebelled against my instructions to show my holiness before them in regard to providing water.” (These were the waters of Meribah in Kadesh, in the Desert of Zin.)
15 Musa ya ce wa Ubangiji,
Then Moses pleaded with the Lord,
16 “Bari Ubangiji, Allah na ruhohin’yan adam, yă naɗa wani a kan wannan jama’a
“May the Lord, the God who gives life to all living beings, choose a man to lead the Israelites
17 yă shiga, yă kuma fita a gabansu, wanda zai bishe su zuwa waje, yă kuma dawo da su ciki, don kada mutanen Ubangiji su zama kamar tumakin da ba su da makiyayi.”
who will tell them what to do and show them where to go, so that the people of the Lord won't be like sheep without a shepherd.”
18 Sai Ubangiji ya ce wa Musa, “Ka ɗauki Yoshuwa ɗan Nun, mutumin da ruhun shugabanci yake a cikinsa, ka ɗibiya masa hannunka.
The Lord told Moses, “Call for Joshua, son of Nun, a man who has the Spirit in him, and place your hands on him.
19 Ka sa yă tsaya a gaban Eleyazar firist, da gaban dukan jama’a, sa’an nan ka keɓe shi a gabansu.
Make him stand in front of Eleazar the priest and all the Israelites, and dedicate him while they watch.
20 Ka danƙa masa ikonka don dukan jama’a Isra’ilawa su yi masa biyayya.
Hand over some of your authority to him so that all the Israelites will obey him.
21 Zai tsaya a gaban Eleyazar firist, wanda zai nemi masa shawara ta wurin Urim a gaban Ubangiji. Da umarninsa, da shi da dukan jama’ar Isra’ilawa za su fita, da umarninsa kuma za su shiga.”
When he needs instructions he is to go before Eleazar the priest who will ask the Lord on his behalf and find out the decision using the Urim. Joshua will give orders to all the Israelites concerning everything they are to do.”
22 Musa ya yi yadda Ubangiji ya umarce shi. Ya ɗauki Yoshuwa, ya sa ya tsaya a gaban Eleyazar firist, da kuma gaban dukan jama’a.
Moses followed the Lord's instructions. He had Joshua come and stand in front of Eleazar the priest and all the Israelites.
23 Sai ya ɗibiya masa hannuwansa, ya keɓe shi, yadda Ubangiji ya umarta ta wurin Musa.
Moses placed his hands on Joshua and dedicated him, just as the Lord had told him to do.
