Oekyuk 36
1 Mwet nukewa su sifen sou ke sou lulap lun Gilead, wen natul Machir ac nutin natul Manasseh wen natul Joseph, elos som nu yorol Moses ac mwet kol saya.
And the princes of the families of Galaad, the son of Machir, the son of Manasses, of the stock Of the children of Joseph, came and spoke to Moses before the princes of Israel, and said:
2 Elos fahk, “LEUM GOD El sap kom in kitalik facl se inge nu sin mwet Israel ke fa. El oayapa sapkin nu sum in sang acn lun Zelophehad, mwet wiasr, nu sin acn natul.
The Lord hath commanded thee, my lord, that thou shouldst divide the land by lot to the children of Israel, and that thou shouldst give to the daughters of Salphaad our brother the possession due to their father:
3 Tusruktu, esam lah elos fin payukyak sin mukul in siena sruf, na acn lalos ac fah ma lac lun sruf sac, ac lupa nufon se ituku lasr inge ac srikeni.
Now if men of another tribe take them to wives, their possession will follow them, and being transferred to another tribe, will be a diminishing of our inheritance.
4 Ke Yac in Folokyang — pacl se ma acn nukewa ma tuh kukakinyukla ac enenu in sifilpa utukeni nu yurin mwet ma la meet ah — na mwe usru lun acn natul Zelophehad ac tuh weang acn lun sruf ma elos payuk nu se nwe tok, na ac fah wanginla liki acn lasr uh.”
And so it shall come to pass, that when the jubilee, that is, the fiftieth year of remission, is come, the distribution made by the lots shall be confounded, and the possession of the one shall pass to the others.
5 Ke ma inge Moses el fahk nu sin mwet Israel ma LEUM GOD El sapkin inge. El fahk, “Ma mwet in sruf lal Manasseh inge fahk uh pwaye.
Moses answered the children of Israel, and said by the command of the Lord: The tribe of the children of Joseph hath spoken rightly.
6 Ouinge LEUM GOD El fahk mu acn natul Zelophehad elos sukosok in payuk sin kutena mwet elos lungse, tusruktu inmasrlon na mwet in sruf lalos sifacna.
And this is the law promulgated by the Lord touching the daughters of Salphaad: Let them marry to whom they will, only so that it be to men of their own tribe.
7 Acn sin mwet Israel nukewa ac fah karinginyuk tuh in oanna ke sruf lal.
Lest the possession of the children of Israel be mingled from tribe to tribe. For all men shall marry wives of their own tribe and kindred:
8 Mutan nukewa ma oasr mwe usru lal ke sie sruf lun Israel, enenu na in payuk sin sie mukul in sruf sacn. In ouiya se inge kais sie mwet Israel fah usrui acn lun papa matu tumal.
And all women shall take husbands of the same tribe: that the inheritance may remain in the families,
9 Na acn uh ac tia som liki sie sruf nu ke sie pacna sruf. Kais sie sruf ac fah sruokyana acn lal uh.”
And that the tribes be not mingled one with another, but remain so
10 Acn natul Zelophehad elos oru oana ma LEUM GOD El sapkin nu sel Moses.
As they were separated by the Lord. And the daughters of Salphaad did as was commanded:
11 Ouinge Mahlah, Tirzah, Hoglah, Milcah, ac Noah, eltal payukyak sin wen nutin tamulel lun papa tumalos.
And Maala, and Thersa, and Hegla, and Melcha, and Noa were married to the sons of their uncle by their father,
12 Elos payuk sin mwet in sruf lun fwilin tulik natul Manasseh wen natul Joseph, ac acn selos uh oanna in sruf lun papa tumalos.
Of the family of Manasses, who was the son of Joseph: and the possession that had been allotted to them, remained in the tribe and family of their father.
13 Pa inge ma sap ac ma oakwuk ma LEUM GOD El sapkin nu sel Moses, su ma nu sin mwet Israel, in acn mwesis lun Moab sisken infacl Jordan tulanang acn Jericho.
These are the commandments and judgments, which the Lord commanded by the hand of Moses to the children of Israel, in the plains of Moab upon the Jordan over against Jericho.
