Mitango 27
1 Bana basi ya Tselofikadi, mwana mobali ya Eferi, mwana mobali ya Galadi, mwana mobali ya Makiri, mwana mobali ya Manase bazalaki bakitani ya libota ya Manase, mwana mobali ya Jozefi. Bakombo na bango ezalaki: Mala, Noa, Ogila, Milika mpe Tiritsa. Bayaki
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 liboso ya Moyize, ya Nganga-Nzambe Eleazari mpe ya bakambi ya lisanga mobimba, na ekotelo ya Ndako ya kapo ya Bokutani mpe balobaki:
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 « Tata na biso akufaki na esobe. Azalaki te na molongo na bato oyo bazalaki kolanda Kore, oyo basanganaki lisanga mpo na kotelemela Yawe, kasi akufaki mpo na masumu na ye moko mpe atikaki bana mibali te.
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 Bongo mpo na nini kombo ya tata na biso elimwa kaka boye na libota na ye, mpo ete azalaki na mwana mobali te? Pesa biso mpe eteni ya mabele kati na bandeko ya tata na biso. »
And Moses brought their case before the Lord.
5 Boye, Moyize amemaki likambo na bango liboso ya Yawe.
And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,
6 Yawe alobaki na Moyize:
The daughters of Salpaad have spoken rightly: you shall surely give them a possession of inheritance in the midst of their father's brethren, and you shall assign their father's inheritance to them.
7 « Makambo oyo bana basi ya Tselofikadi bazali koloba ezali solo. Osengeli kopesa bango eteni ya mabele lokola libula kati na bandeko ya tata na bango mpe pesa bango libula ya tata na bango.
And you shall speak to the children of Israel, saying,
8 Loba na bana ya Isalaele: ‹ Soki moto moko asili kokufa mpe atiki bana mibali te, bokopesa libula na ye epai ya mwana na ye ya mwasi.
If a man die, and have no son, you shall assign his inheritance to his daughter.
9 Soki mpe azali na mwana mwasi te, bokopesa libula na ye epai ya bandeko na ye ya mibali.
And if he have no daughter, you shall give his inheritance to his brother.
10 Soki mpe azali na bandeko mibali te, bokopesa libula na ye epai ya bandeko mibali ya tata na ye.
And if he have no brethren, you shall give his inheritance to his father's brother.
11 Bongo, soki tata na ye azalaki mpe na bandeko mibali te, bokopesa libula na ye epai ya ndeko ya pene ya libota ya tata na ye; ye nde akokitana na yango. Oyo ekozala mpo na Isalaele, mobeko oyo bosengeli kolanda ndenge Yawe alobaki na Moyize. › »
And if there be no brethren of his father, you 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 judgement, as the Lord commanded Moses.
12 Yawe alobaki na Moyize: — Mata likolo ya bangomba ya Abarimi, mpe tala mokili oyo napesaki epai ya bana ya Isalaele.
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 Sima na yo komona yango, yo mpe okokende kosangana na bakoko na yo na mokili ya bakufi ndenge moko na Aron, ndeko na yo ya mobali,
And you shall see it, and you also shall be added to your people, as Aaron your brother was added [to them] in mount Or:
14 pamba te tango lisanga ya bato batombokaki mpo na mayi, na esobe ya Tsini, bino mpe botosaki mitindo na Ngai te mpe bopesaki lokumu te na bosantu na Ngai na miso na bango. Ezalaki nde mayi ya Meriba ya Kadeshi, na esobe ya Tsini.
because you transgressed my commandment in the wilderness of Sin, when the congregation resisted [and refused] to sanctify me; you sanctified me not at the water before them. This is the water of Strife in Cades in the wilderness of Sin.
15 Moyize alobaki na Yawe:
And Moses said to the Lord,
16 — Tika ete Yawe, Nzambe oyo apesaka pema na bato nyonso, apona moto moko mpo ete akamba lingomba oyo;
Let the Lord God of spirits and of all flesh look out for a man over this congregation,
17 moto oyo akobanda kobima mpe kokota liboso na bango, oyo akobanda kobimisa mpe kokotisa bango mpo ete bato na Yawe bazala te lokola bibwele oyo ezanga mobateli.
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 Yawe azongiselaki Moyize: — Kamata Jozue, mwana mobali ya Nuni, moto oyo azali na molimo mpe tia ye maboko na yo.
And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying, Take to yourself Joshua the son of Naue, a man who has the Spirit in him, and you shall lay your hands upon him.
19 Mema ye liboso ya Nganga-Nzambe Eleazari mpe ya lingomba mobimba ya bato, bongo okopesa ye mosala na miso na bango.
And you shall set him before Eleazar the priest, and you shall give him a charge before all the congregation, and you shall give a charge concerning him before them.
20 Pesa ye ndambo ya bokonzi na yo mpo ete lisanga mobimba ya bana ya Isalaele bakoka kotosa ye.
And you shall put of your glory upon him, that the children of Israel may listen to him.
21 Akokende kotelema liboso ya Nganga-Nzambe Eleazari, oyo akotuna mokano na Yawe mpo na ye, na nzela na Urimi. Na mokano wana nde, ye mpe lisanga mobimba ya bana ya Isalaele bakobanda kobima mpe kokota.
And he shall stand before Eleazar the priest, and they shall ask of him before the Lord the judgement 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 Moyize asalaki ndenge Yawe atindaki ye. Akamataki Jozue mpe atelemisaki ye liboso ya Nganga-Nzambe Eleazari mpe liboso ya lisanga mobimba ya Isalaele.
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 Atiaki ye maboko mpe apesaki ye mosala, ndenge Yawe atindaki na nzela ya Moyize.
And he laid his hands on him, and appointed him as the Lord ordered Moses.
