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.
One day the five daughters of Zelophehad came [to Moses/me]. They were Mahlah, Noah, Hoglah, Milcah, and Tirzah.
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,
They came to the entrance of the Sacred Tent and stood in front of Eleazar, Moses/me, the tribal leaders, and many [EUP] other Israeli people.
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.
They said, “Our father died [during the time that we were] in the desert, and he did not have any sons. But he was not among those who supported Korah, who rebelled against Yahweh. He died just because he was a sinner [like everyone else].
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 his clan disappear [with the result that we do not receive any land] only because our father had no sons?/It is not right that the name of his clan disappear [with the result that we do not receive any land] only because our father had no sons.) [RHQ] So give us some land like our relatives will be getting!”
5 A lawe aku la o Mose i ko lakou mea imua o Iehova.
So Moses/I asked Yahweh [what to do about] their request.
6 Olelo mai la o Iehova ia Mose, i mai la,
And Yahweh replied,
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 requesting is right. You must give them some land, just as you are giving to their father’s relatives. Give to each of them some of the land that would have been given to their brothers [if they had any].
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.
“Also tell this to the Israeli people: ‘If a man who has no sons dies, give the things that his sons would have inherited to his daughters.
9 Ina aole hoi he kaikamahine nana, e haawi aku oukou i kona aina hooili no kona mau hoahanau.
If the man has no sons or daughters, give to his brothers the things that his sons and daughters would have inherited.
10 A i ole ona hoahanau, alaila e haawi aku oukou i kona aina hooili no na hoahanau o kona makuakane
If the man had no brothers, give to his father’s brothers the things that his sons or daughters or brothers would have inherited.
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 the man’s father has no brothers, give to his closest relative the things that the others would have inherited.’ That will be a rule for the Israeli people, because I am giving this as a command to you, Moses, [to tell them].”
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.
One day, Yahweh said to Moses/me, “Climb to the top of the Abarim Mountains [east of the Jordan River]. Then look out over the land that I am giving to the Israeli people.
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 die [EUP] just like your [older] 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.
The reason [that you will die and not enter that land] is that you both disobeyed my instructions/commands in the Zin Desert. When the Israeli people rebelled against me there at Meribah, near Kadesh, [I told you to speak to the rock to cause] water to flow out of it. [But because you struck the rock instead of speaking to it], you did not show the people my holy power.”
15 Olelo aku la o Mose ia Iehova, i aku la,
Then Moses/I said this to Yahweh:
16 Na Iehova, na ke Akua o na uhane o kanaka a pau e hoonoho i kekahi kanaka maluna o ke anaina kanaka,
“Yahweh, you are the God who directs the spirits of all people. So please appoint a new leader for the Israeli people.
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.
Appoint someone who will lead your people when they go to fight a battle, so that they will not [just wander around] like sheep that do not have a shepherd.” [SIM]
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;
Yahweh replied, “Get Joshua, the son of Nun, who has my Spirit within him. Lay your hands on him [to appoint 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.
Cause him to stand in front of Eleazar the priest, as all the people are watching, and commission/appoint him to be the new leader of the Israeli people.
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.
Give to him some of the authority that you now have, in order that all the Israeli people will [know that they must] 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 you all need me to guide you, Joshua will stand in front of Eleazar. Then by (casting lots/throwing marked stones on the ground) Eleazar will find out what they should 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.
So Moses/I did what Yahweh commanded. He/I presented Joshua to Eleazar and to all the Israeli people.
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/I laid his/my hands on him and commissioned/appointed him to do the work that Yahweh told Moses/me to tell him to do.
