民数記 27
1 さて、ヨセフの子マナセの氏族のうちのヘペルの子、ゼロペハデの娘たちが訴えてきた。ヘペルはギレアデの子、ギレアデはマキルの子、マキルはマナセの子である。その娘たちは名をマアラ、ノア、ホグラ、ミルカ、テルザといったが、
And they drew near [the] daughters of Zelophehad [the] son of Hepher [the] son of Gilead [the] son of Makir [the] son of Manasseh of [the] clans of Manasseh [the] son of Joseph and these [were] [the] names of daughters his Mahlah Noah and Hoglah and Milcah and Tirzah.
2 彼らは会見の幕屋の入口でモーセと、祭司エレアザルと、つかさたちと全会衆との前に立って言った、
And they took their stand before Moses and before Eleazar the priest and before the leaders and all the congregation [the] entrance of [the] tent of meeting saying.
3 「わたしたちの父は荒野で死にました。彼は、コラの仲間となって主に逆らった者どもの仲間のうちには加わりませんでした。彼は自分の罪によって死んだのですが、男の子がありませんでした。
Father our he died in the wilderness and he not he was in among the company which gathered on Yahweh in [the] company of Korah for in own sin his he died and sons not they belonged to him.
4 男の子がないからといって、どうしてわたしたちの父の名がその氏族のうちから削られなければならないのでしょうか。わたしたちの父の兄弟と同じように、わたしたちにも所有地を与えてください」。
Why? will it be withdrawn [the] name of father our from among clan his for not [belonged] to him a son give! to us a possession in among [the] brothers of father our.
5 モーセがその事を主の前に述べると、
And he brought near Moses case their before Yahweh.
6 主はモーセに言われた、
And he said Yahweh to Moses saying.
7 「ゼロペハデの娘たちの言うことは正しい。あなたは必ず彼らの父の兄弟たちと同じように、彼らにも嗣業の所有地を与えなければならない。すなわち、その父の嗣業を彼らに渡さなければならない。
Right [the] daughters of Zelophehad [are] speaking certainly you will give to them possession of an inheritance in among [the] brothers of father their and you will make pass over [the] inheritance of father their to them.
8 あなたはイスラエルの人々に言いなさい、『もし人が死んで、男の子がない時は、その嗣業を娘に渡さなければならない。
And to [the] people of Israel you will speak saying a man if he will die and a son not [belongs] to him and you will make pass over inheritance his to daughter his.
9 もしまた娘もない時は、その嗣業を兄弟に与えなければならない。
And if not [belongs] to him a daughter and you will give inheritance his to brothers his.
10 もし兄弟もない時は、その嗣業を父の兄弟に与えなければならない。
And if not [belong] to him brothers and you will give inheritance his to [the] brothers of father his.
11 もしまた父に兄弟がない時は、その氏族のうちで彼に最も近い親族にその嗣業を与えて所有させなければならない』。主がモーセに命じられたようにイスラエルの人々は、これをおきての定めとしなければならない」。
And if not brothers [belong] to father his and you will give inheritance his to relative his near to him from own clan his and he will take possession of it and it will become for [the] people of Israel a statute of judgment just as he has commanded Yahweh Moses.
12 主はモーセに言われた、「このアバリムの山に登って、わたしがイスラエルの人々に与える地を見なさい。
And he said Yahweh to Moses go up to [the] mountain of the Abarim this and see the land which I have given to [the] people of Israel.
13 あなたはそれを見てから、兄弟アロンのようにその民に加えられるであろう。
And you will see it and you will be gathered to people your also you just as he was gathered Aaron brother your.
14 これは会衆がチンの荒野で逆らい争った時、あなたがたはわたしの命にそむき、あの水のかたわらで彼らの目の前にわたしの聖なることを現さなかったからである」。これはチンの荒野にあるカデシのメリバの水である。
Since you rebelled against mouth my in [the] wilderness of Zin in [the] strife of the congregation to treat as holy me at the waters to eyes their they [were] [the] waters of Meribath Kadesh [the] wilderness of Zin.
15 モーセは主に言った、
And he spoke Moses to Yahweh saying.
16 「すべての肉なるものの命の神、主よ、どうぞ、この会衆の上にひとりの人を立て、
Let him appoint Yahweh [the] God of the spirits of all flesh a man over the congregation.
17 彼らの前に出入りし、彼らを導き出し、彼らを導き入れる者とし、主の会衆を牧者のない羊のようにしないでください」。
Who he will go out before them and who he will come before them and who he will lead out them and who he will bring them and not it will be [the] congregation of Yahweh like sheep which not [belongs] to them a shepherd.
18 主はモーセに言われた、「神の霊のやどっているヌンの子ヨシュアを選び、あなたの手をその上におき、
And he said Yahweh to Moses take for yourself Joshua [the] son of Nun a man whom a spirit [is] in him and you will lay hand your on him.
19 彼を祭司エレアザルと全会衆の前に立たせて、彼らの前で職に任じなさい。
And you will make stand him before Eleazar the priest and before all the congregation and you will commission him to eyes their.
20 そして彼にあなたの権威を分け与え、イスラエルの人々の全会衆を彼に従わせなさい。
And you will put some of majesty your on him so that they may hear all [the] congregation of [the] people of Israel.
21 彼は祭司エレアザルの前に立ち、エレアザルは彼のためにウリムをもって、主の前に判断を求めなければならない。ヨシュアとイスラエルの人々の全会衆とはエレアザルの言葉に従っていで、エレアザルの言葉に従ってはいらなければならない」。
And before Eleazar the priest he will stand and he will enquire for him by [the] judgment of the Urim before Yahweh on mouth his they will go out and on mouth his they will come he and all [the] people of Israel with him and all the congregation.
22 そこでモーセは主が命じられたようにし、ヨシュアを選んで、祭司エレアザルと全会衆の前に立たせ、
And he did Moses just as he had commanded Yahweh him and he took Joshua and he made stand him before Eleazar the priest and before all the congregation.
23 彼の上に手をおき、主がモーセによって語られたとおりに彼を任命した。
And he laid hands his on him and he commissioned him just as he had spoken Yahweh by [the] hand of Moses.
