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.
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 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,
and stood before Moses, Eleazar the priest, the leaders, and all the Israelites at the entrance to the Tent of Meeting. They 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 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 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 our family name be lost simply because he didn't have a son? Give us land to own alongside our uncles.”
5 A lawe aku la o Mose i ko lakou mea imua o Iehova.
Moses took their case before the Lord.
6 Olelo mai la o Iehova ia Mose, i mai la,
The Lord gave him this answer,
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.
“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 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.
In addition, tell the Israelites, ‘If a man dies and doesn't have a no son, give his property to his daughter.
9 Ina aole hoi he kaikamahine nana, e haawi aku oukou i kona aina hooili no kona mau hoahanau.
If he doesn't have a daughter, give his property 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 doesn't have brothers, give his property 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.
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 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.
The Lord told Moses, “Go up into the Abarim mountains so you can 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 will also join your forefathers in death, just as your brother Aaron did,
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.
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 Olelo aku la o Mose ia Iehova, i aku la,
Then Moses pleaded with 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 who gives life to all living beings, choose a man to lead the Israelites
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 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 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;
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 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.
Make him stand in front of Eleazar the priest and all the Israelites, and dedicate him while they watch.
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.
Hand over some of your authority to him so that all the Israelites 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.
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 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 followed the Lord's instructions. He had Joshua come and stand in front of Eleazar the priest and all the Israelites.
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.
Moses placed his hands on Joshua and dedicated him, just as the Lord had told him to do.
