1 Kemudian mendekatlah anak-anak perempuan Zelafehad bin Hefer bin Gilead bin Makhir bin Manasye dari kaum Manasye bin Yusuf--nama anak-anaknya itu adalah: Mahla, Noa, Hogla, Milka dan Tirza--
And the daughters of Salpaad the son of Opher, the son of Galaad, the son of Machir, of the tribe of Manasse, of the sons of Joseph, came near; and these were their names, Maala, and Nua, and Egla, and Melcha, and Thersa;
2 dan berdiri di depan Musa dan imam Eleazar, dan di depan para pemimpin dan segenap umat itu dekat pintu Kemah Pertemuan, serta berkata:
and they stood before Moses, and before Eleazar the priest, and before the princes, and before all the congregation at the door of the tabernacle of witness, saying,
3 "Ayah kami telah mati di padang gurun, walaupun ia tidak termasuk ke dalam kumpulan yang bersepakat melawan TUHAN, ke dalam kumpulan Korah, tetapi ia telah mati karena dosanya sendiri, dan ia tidak mempunyai anak laki-laki.
Our father died in the wilderness, and he was not in the midst of the congregation that rebelled against the Lord in the gathering of Core; for he died for his own sin, and he had no sons. Let not the name of our father be blotted out of the midst of his people, because he has no son: give us an inheritance in the midst of our father's brethren.
4 Mengapa nama ayah kami harus hapus dari tengah-tengah kaumnya, oleh karena ia tidak mempunyai anak laki-laki? Berilah kami tanah milik di antara saudara-saudara ayah kami."
And Moses brought their case before the Lord.
5 Lalu Musa menyampaikan perkara mereka itu ke hadapan TUHAN.
And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,
6 Maka berfirmanlah TUHAN kepada Musa:
The daughters of Salpaad have spoken rightly: thou shalt surely give them a possession of inheritance in the midst of their father's brethren, and thou shalt assign their father's inheritance to them.
7 "Perkataan anak-anak perempuan Zelafehad itu benar; memang engkau harus memberikan tanah milik pusaka kepadanya di tengah-tengah saudara-saudara ayahnya; engkau harus memindahkan kepadanya hak atas milik pusaka ayahnya.
And thou shalt speak to the children of Israel, saying,
8 Dan kepada orang Israel engkau harus berkata: Apabila seseorang mati dengan tidak mempunyai anak laki-laki, maka haruslah kamu memindahkan hak atas milik pusakanya kepada anaknya yang perempuan.
If a man die, and have no son, ye shall assign his inheritance to his daughter.
9 Apabila ia tidak mempunyai anak perempuan, maka haruslah kamu memberikan milik pusakanya itu kepada saudara-saudaranya yang laki-laki.
And if he have no daughter, ye shall give his inheritance to his brother.
10 Dan apabila ia tidak mempunyai saudara-saudara lelaki, maka haruslah kamu memberikan milik pusakanya itu kepada saudara-saudara lelaki ayahnya.
And if he have no brethren, ye shall give his inheritance to his father's brother.
11 Dan apabila ayahnya tidak mempunyai saudara-saudara lelaki, maka haruslah kamu memberikan milik pusakanya itu kepada kerabatnya yang terdekat dari antara kaumnya, supaya dimilikinya." Itulah yang harus menjadi ketetapan hukum bagi orang Israel, seperti yang diperintahkan TUHAN kepada Musa.
And if there be no brethren of his father, ye shall give the inheritance to his nearest relation of his tribe, to inherit his possessions; and this shall be to the children of Israel an ordinance of judgment, as the Lord commanded Moses.
12 TUHAN berfirman kepada Musa: "Naiklah ke gunung Abarim ini, dan pandanglah negeri yang Kuberikan kepada orang Israel.
And the Lord said to Moses, Go up to the mountain that is in the country beyond Jordan, this mount Nabau, and behold the land Chanaan, which I give to the sons of Israel for a possession.
13 Sesudah engkau memandangnya, maka engkaupun juga akan dikumpulkan kepada kaum leluhurmu, sama seperti Harun, abangmu, dahulu.
And thou shalt see it, and thou also shalt be added to thy people, as Aaron thy brother was added [to them] in mount Or:
14 Karena pada waktu pembantahan umat itu di padang gurun Zin, kamu berdua telah memberontak terhadap titah-Ku untuk menyatakan kekudusan-Ku di depan mata mereka dengan air itu." Itulah mata air Meriba dekat Kadesh di padang gurun Zin.
because ye transgressed my commandment in the wilderness of Sin, when the congregation resisted [and refused] to sanctify me; ye sanctified me not at the water before them. This is the water of Strife in Cades in the wilderness of Sin.
15 Lalu berkatalah Musa kepada TUHAN:
And Moses said to the Lord,
16 "Biarlah TUHAN, Allah dari roh segala makhluk, mengangkat atas umat ini seorang
Let the Lord God of spirits and of all flesh look out for a man over this congregation,
17 yang mengepalai mereka waktu keluar dan masuk, dan membawa mereka keluar dan masuk, supaya umat TUHAN jangan hendaknya seperti domba-domba yang tidak mempunyai gembala."
who shall go out before them, and who shall come in before them, and who shall lead them out, and who shall bring them in; so the congregation of the Lord shall not be as sheep without a shepherd.
18 Lalu TUHAN berfirman kepada Musa: "Ambillah Yosua bin Nun, seorang yang penuh roh, letakkanlah tanganmu atasnya,
And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying, Take to thyself Joshua the son of Naue, a man who has the Spirit in him, and thou shalt lay thy hands upon him.
19 suruhlah ia berdiri di depan imam Eleazar dan di depan segenap umat, lalu berikanlah kepadanya perintahmu di depan mata mereka itu
And thou shalt set him before Eleazar the priest, and thou shalt give him a charge before all the congregation, and thou shalt give a charge concerning him before them.
20 dan berilah dia sebagian dari kewibawaanmu, supaya segenap umat Israel mendengarkan dia.
And thou shalt put of thy glory upon him, that the children of Israel may hearken to him.
21 Ia harus berdiri di depan imam Eleazar, supaya Eleazar menanyakan keputusan Urim bagi dia di hadapan TUHAN; atas titahnya mereka akan keluar dan atas titahnya mereka akan masuk, ia beserta semua orang Israel, segenap umat itu."
And he shall stand before Eleazar the priest, and they shall ask of him before the Lord the judgment of the Urim: they shall go forth at his word, and at his word they shall come in, he and the children of Israel with one accord, and all the congregation.
22 Maka Musa melakukan seperti yang diperintahkan TUHAN kepadanya. Ia memanggil Yosua dan menyuruh dia berdiri di depan imam Eleazar dan di depan segenap umat itu,
And Moses did as the Lord commanded him; and he took Joshua, and set him before Eleazar the priest, and before all the congregation.
23 lalu ia meletakkan tangannya atas Yosua dan memberikan kepadanya perintahnya, seperti yang difirmankan TUHAN dengan perantaraan Musa.
And he laid his hands on him, and appointed him as the Lord ordered Moses.
