< Na Helu 27 >
1 A LAILA hide mai na kaikamahine a Zelopehada, ke keiki a Hepera, ke keiki a Gileada, ke keiki a Makira, ko keiki a Manase, no na ohana a Manase ke keiki a Iosepa: eia hoi na inoa o kana mau kaikamahine; o Mahela, o Noa, o Hogela, o Mileka a me Tireza.
Now the daughters of Zelophehad son of Hepher, the son of Gilead, the son of Machir, the son of Manasseh, belonged to the clans of Manasseh son of Joseph. These were the names of his daughters: Mahlah, Noah, Hoglah, Milcah, and Tirzah. They approached
2 Ku no lakou imua o Mose, imua hoi o Eleazara ke kahuna, a imua o na luna, a imua hoi o ke anaina kanaka a pau, ma ka puka o ka halelewa anaina, i mai la,
the entrance to the Tent of Meeting, stood before Moses, Eleazar the priest, the leaders, and the whole congregation, and said,
3 Ua make ko makou makuakane ma ka waonahele, aole no ia me ka poe i hoakoakoa pu e ku e ia Iehova me e Kora ma; aka, make no in iloko o kona hewa iho no, aole hoi ana keikikane.
“Our father died in the wilderness, but he was not among the followers of Korah who gathered together against the LORD. Instead, he died because of his own sin, and he had no sons.
4 No ke aha la e laweia'ku ai ka inoa o ko makou makuakane maiwaena aku o kona ohana, no kona nele i ke keikikane? E haawi mai no makou i wahi e noho ai iwaena o na hoahanau o ko makou makuakane.
Why should the name of our father disappear from his clan because he had no sons? Give us property among our father’s brothers.”
5 A lawe aku la o Mose i ko lakou mea imua o Iehova.
So Moses brought their case before the LORD,
6 Olelo mai la o Iehova ia Mose, i mai la,
and the LORD answered him,
7 Ke olelo pono mai nei no na kaikamahine a Zelopehada: e haawi io aku no oe i aina hooili iwaena o na hoahanau o ko lakou makuakane: a e hoolilo oe i ka aina hooili o ko lakou makuakane no lakou.
“The daughters of Zelophehad speak correctly. You certainly must give them property as an inheritance among their father’s brothers, and transfer their father’s inheritance to them.
8 A e olelo aku oe i na mamo a Iseraela, e i aku, Ina make kekahi kanaka, aole ana keikikane, alaila e hoolilo oe i kona aina i hooili no kana kaikamahine.
Furthermore, you shall say to the Israelites, ‘If a man dies and leaves no son, you are to transfer his inheritance to his daughter.
9 Ina aole hoi he kaikamahine nana, e haawi aku oukou i kona aina hooili no kona mau hoahanau.
If he has no daughter, give his inheritance to his brothers.
10 A i ole ona hoahanau, alaila e haawi aku oukou i kona aina hooili no na hoahanau o kona makuakane
If he has no brothers, give his inheritance to his father’s brothers.
11 A i ole na hoahanau o kona makuakane, alaila e haawi aku oukou i kona aina hooili no kona hoahanau e kokoke mai ana ma kona ohana, a e lilo ia nona: a e lilo ia i kanawai hoopono no na mamo a Iseraela, e like me ka ke Akua i kauoha wai ai ia Mose.
And if his father has no brothers, give his inheritance to the next of kin from his clan, that he may take possession of it. This is to be a statutory ordinance for the Israelites, as the LORD has commanded Moses.’”
12 Olelo mai la o Iehova ia Mose, E pii aku oe i keia kuahiwi o Abarima, e nana i ka aina a'u i haawi aku ai no na mamo a Iseraela.
Then the LORD said to Moses, “Go up this mountain of the Abarim range and see the land that I have given the Israelites.
13 A pau kou nana ana, o oe hoi kekahi e hui pu ia'ku me kou poe kanaka, e like mo kou kaikuaana o Aarona i hui pu ia'ku ai.
After you have seen it, you too will be gathered to your people, as your brother Aaron was;
14 No ka mea, ua ku e mai olua i ka'u olelo ma ka waonahele o Zina, kahi i hakaka'ai ke anaina kanaka; aole olua i hoano mai ia'u ma ka wai imua o ko lakou mau maka: oia ka wai o Meriba ma Kadesa ma ka waonahele o Zina.
for when the congregation contended in the Wilderness of Zin, both of you rebelled against My command to show My holiness in their sight regarding the waters.” Those were the waters of Meribah in Kadesh, in the Wilderness of Zin.
15 Olelo aku la o Mose ia Iehova, i aku la,
So Moses appealed to the LORD,
16 Na Iehova, na ke Akua o na uhane o kanaka a pau e hoonoho i kekahi kanaka maluna o ke anaina kanaka,
“May the LORD, the God of the spirits of all flesh, appoint a man over the congregation
17 Nana e hale aku imua o lakou, nana hoi e hele hou mai imua o lakou; nana lakou e kai aku, nana hoi lakou e kai mai; i like ole ai ke anaina kanaka o Iehova me na hipa kahu ole.
who will go out and come in before them, and who will lead them out and bring them in, so that the congregation of the LORD will not be like sheep without a shepherd.”
18 I mai la o Iehova ia Mose, E lawe oe ia Iosua ke keiki a Nuna, he kanaka iloko ona ka Uhane, a e kau oe i kou lima maluna ona;
And the LORD replied to Moses, “Take Joshua son of Nun, a man with the Spirit in him, and lay your hands on him.
19 A e hoonoho ia ia imua o Eleazara ke kahuna, imua hoi o ke anaina kanaka a pau; a e kauoha oe ia ia imua o lakou.
Have him stand before Eleazar the priest and the whole congregation, and commission him in their sight.
20 E kau aku oe i kekahi o kou hanohano maluna iho ona, i hoolohe mai ai ke anaina kanaka a pau o na mamo a Iseraela.
Confer on him some of your authority, so that the whole congregation of Israel will obey him.
21 A e ku mai ia imua o Eleazara ke kahuna, nana e ninau mai nona ma ka olelo a ka Urima imua o Iehova: ma kana olelo e hele aku ai lakou, a ma kana olelo hoi lakou e hoi mai ai, oia a me na mamo a pau a Iseraela me ia, o ke anaina kanaka a pau.
He shall stand before Eleazar the priest, who will seek counsel for him before the LORD by the judgment of the Urim. At his command, he and all the Israelites with him—the entire congregation—will go out and come in.”
22 Hana iho la o Mose, e like me ka Iehova i kauoha mai ai ia ia: lawe aku la oia ia Iosua, hoonoho iho la ia ia imua o Eleazara ke kahuna, imua hoi o ke anaina kanaka a pau.
Moses did as the LORD had commanded him. He took Joshua, had him stand before Eleazar the priest and the whole congregation,
23 Kau aku la ia i kona mau lima maluna iho ona, a kauoha aku la ia ia, e like me ka Iehova i kauoha mai ai ma ka lima o Mose.
and laid his hands on him and commissioned him, as the LORD had instructed through Moses.
