< Liber Numeri 36 >
1 Accesserunt autem et principes familiarum Galaad filii Machir, filii Manasse de stirpe filiorum Ioseph: locutique sunt Moysi coram principibus Israel, atque dixerunt:
The heads of the ancestral houses of the family of the people of Gilead, the son of Makir, the son of Manasseh, of the families of the sons of Joseph, came near and spoke before Moses and before Eleazar the priest and before the leaders, the heads of the ancestral houses of the children of Israel.
2 Tibi domino nostro praecepit Dominus ut Terram sorte divideres filiis Israel, et ut filiabus Salphaad fratris nostri dares possessionem debitam patri:
And they said, "The LORD commanded my lord to give the land for inheritance by lot to the children of Israel: and my lord was commanded by the LORD to give the inheritance of Zelophehad our brother to his daughters.
3 quas si alterius tribus homines uxores acceperint, sequetur possessio sua, et translata ad aliam tribum de nostra hereditate minuetur.
If they are married to any of the sons of the other tribes of the children of Israel, then will their inheritance be taken away from the inheritance of our fathers, and will be added to the inheritance of the tribe whereunto they shall belong: so will it be taken away from the lot of our inheritance.
4 atque ita fiet, ut cum iubilaeus, id est quinquagesimus annus remissionis advenerit, confundatur sortium distributio, et aliorum possessio ad alios transeat.
When the jubilee of the children of Israel shall be, then will their inheritance be added to the inheritance of the tribe whereunto they shall belong: so will their inheritance be taken away from the inheritance of the tribe of our fathers."
5 Respondit Moyses filiis Israel, et Domino praecipiente, ait: Recte tribus filiorum Ioseph locuta est.
Moses commanded the children of Israel according to the word of the LORD, saying, "The tribe of the sons of Joseph speaks right.
6 et haec lex super filiabus Salphaad a Domino promulgata est: Nubant quibus volunt, tantum ut suae tribus hominibus:
This is the thing which the LORD does command concerning the daughters of Zelophehad, saying, Let them be married to whom they think best; only into the family of the tribe of their father shall they be married.
7 ne commisceatur possessio filiorum Israel de tribu in tribum. Omnes enim viri ducent uxores de tribu et cognatione sua:
So shall no inheritance of the children of Israel remove from tribe to tribe; for the children of Israel shall all keep the inheritance of the tribe of his fathers.
8 et cunctae feminae de eadem tribu maritos accipient: ut hereditas permaneat in familiis,
Every daughter who possesses an inheritance in any tribe of the children of Israel shall be wife to one of the family of the tribe of her father, that the children of Israel may possess every man the inheritance of his fathers.
9 nec sibi misceantur tribus, sed ita maneant
So shall no inheritance remove from one tribe to another tribe; for the tribes of the children of Israel shall each keep his own inheritance."
10 ut a Domino separatae sunt. Feceruntque filiae Salphaad ut fuerat imperatum:
The daughters of Zelophehad did as the LORD commanded Moses:
11 et nupserunt Maala, et Thersa, et Hegla, et Melcha, et Noa filiis patrui sui
for Mahlah, Tirzah, and Hoglah, and Milcah, and Noah, the daughters of Zelophehad, were married to their father's brothers' sons.
12 de familia Manasse, qui fuit filius Ioseph: et possessio, quae illis fuerat attributa, mansit in tribu et familia patris earum.
They were married into the families of the sons of Manasseh the son of Joseph; and their inheritance remained in the tribe of the family of their father.
13 Haec sunt mandata atque iudicia, quae mandavit Dominus per manum Moysi ad filios Israel, in campestribus Moab supra Iordanem contra Iericho.
These are the commandments and the ordinances which the LORD commanded by Moses to the children of Israel in the plains of Moab by the Jordan at Jericho.
