Ọnụọgụgụ 36
1 Nʼoge ahụ, ndịisi ezi agbụrụ Gilead, nwa Makia, nwa Manase, otu nʼime ụmụ Josef, bịakwutere Mosis na ndị ndu, na ndịisi ezi ụmụ Izrel sị ha:
And the heads of the fathers of the families of the sons of Gilead, son of Machir, son of Manasseh, of the families of the sons of Joseph, come near and speak before Moses and before the princes, heads of the fathers of the sons of Israel,
2 “Mgbe Onyenwe anyị nyere unu onyenwe m iwu inye ụmụ Izrel ala ahụ nʼihe nketa site nʼife nza, onye nyekwara gị iwu iwere ihe nketa nwanne anyị nwoke Zelofehad nyefee nʼaka ụmụ ya ndị inyom.
and say, “YHWH commanded my lord to give the land for inheritance by lot to the sons of Israel, and my lord has been commanded by YHWH to give the inheritance of our brother Zelophehad to his daughters.
3 Ugbu a, ọ bụrụ na ha alụọ ndị ikom Izrel si nʼebo ọzọ, mgbe ahụ, ihe nketa ha ga-abụ nke anapụrụ anyị, tụkwasị nʼihe nketa nke ebo ebe ha lụrụ di. Nʼụzọ dị otu a, ihe nketa anyị ga-abụ nke e wepụrụ ihe site na ya.
Now [if] they have been [given] to one from the sons of the [other] tribes of the sons of Israel for wives, and their inheritance has been withdrawn from the inheritance of our fathers, and has been added to the inheritance of the tribe which is theirs, and it is withdrawn from the lot of our inheritance,
4 Mgbe afọ inwere onwe nye Izrel ruru, a ga-agụnye ihe nketa ha nʼebo ebe ha lụrụ dị. A ga-esi otu a wepụ ala ha site nʼihe nketa nke nna nna anyị ha ketara.”
and if it is the Jubilee of the sons of Israel, then their inheritance has been added to the inheritance of the tribe which is theirs, and their inheritance is withdrawn from the inheritance of the tribe of our fathers.”
5 Mgbe ahụ, Mosis nyere ndị Izrel ntụziaka site nʼiwu Onyenwe anyị sị, “Ihe ndị ikom ebo Josef na-ekwu ziri ezi.
And Moses commands the sons of Israel by the command of YHWH, saying, “The tribe of the sons of Joseph is speaking correctly;
6 Ma nke a bụ iwu Onyenwe anyị na-enye maka ụmụ ndị inyom Zelofehad. Ha nwere ike ịlụ onye ọbụla masịrị ha, ma onye ha ga-alụ ga-abụrịrị onye si nʼagbụrụ ebo nna ha.
this [is] the thing which YHWH has commanded concerning the daughters of Zelophehad, saying, To those good in their eyes let them be for wives; only, let them be for wives to a family of the tribe of their fathers;
7 O nweghị ihe nketa ọbụla nʼIzrel ga-esi nʼaka otu ebo gafee nʼebo ọzọ. Nʼihi na ihe nketa nke ebo ọbụla ga-adịgidere ha dịka otu e siri kee ya nye nna nna ha.
and the inheritance of the sons of Israel does not turn around from tribe to tribe; for each of the sons of Israel cleaves to the inheritance of the tribe of his fathers.
8 Nwa nwanyị Izrel ọbụla ketara ala nʼebo Izrel ọ bụla ga-alụ di site nʼagbụrụ ebo nna ya. Ka ala ha ghara ịgafere ebo ọzọ.
And every daughter possessing an inheritance from the tribes of the sons of Israel is for a wife to one from the family of the tribe of her father, so that the sons of Israel each possess the inheritance of his fathers,
9 Ọ dịghị ihe nketa ọbụla ga-esi nʼotu ebo feere ebo ọzọ. Nʼihi na ebo Izrel ọbụla ga-edebere onwe ha ala ha ketara.”
and the inheritance does not turn around from [one] tribe to another tribe; for each of the tribes of the sons of Israel cleaves to his inheritance.”
10 Ya mere, ụmụ ndị inyom Zelofehad mere dịka Onyenwe anyị nyere Mosis nʼiwu.
As YHWH has commanded Moses, so the daughters of Zelophehad have done,
11 Ụmụ Zelofehad ndị a: Mahla, na Tịaza, na Hogla, na Milka, na Noa, lụrụ ndị ikom si nʼebo nna ha.
and Mahlah, Tirzah, and Hoglah, and Milcah, and Noah, daughters of Zelophehad, are for wives to the sons of their fathers’ brothers;
12 Ha lụrụ di nʼagbụrụ ụmụ Manase, nwa Josef. Nʼụzọ dị otu a, ihe nketa ha dịgidere nʼebo na agbụrụ nna ha.
they have been for wives [to men] from the families of the sons of Manasseh, son of Joseph, and their inheritance is with the tribe of the family of their father.
13 Ndị a bụ iwu na ụkpụrụ Onyenwe anyị sitere nʼaka Mosis nye ndị Izrel nʼoge ha nọ nʼobosara ala Moab, nʼakụkụ osimiri Jọdan, na ncherita ihu Jeriko.
These [are] the commands and the judgments which YHWH has commanded by the hand of Moses concerning the sons of Israel, in the plains of Moab by the Jordan, [near] Jericho.
