Nomery 27
1 Niheo mb’eo amy zao o anak’ ampela’ i Tselofekhàde ana’ i Kèfere, ana’ i Gilàde, ana’i Makìre, ana’i Menasè ana’ Iosefeo; le zao ty tahina’ o anak’ ampela’eo: i Maklà, i Noae, Koglàe, i Milka, vaho i Tirtsà,
And daughters of Zelophehad son of Hepher, son of Gilead, son of Machir, son of Manasseh, of the families of Manasseh son of Joseph, draw near — and these [are] the names of his daughters, Mahlah, Noah, and Hoglah, and Milcah, and Tirzah —
2 naho nijohañe añatrefa’ i Mosè naho i Elazare mpisoroñe naho o roandriañeo naho i hene valobohòkey an-dalan-kibohom-pamantañañe eo, nanao ty hoe:
and stand before Moses, and before Eleazar the priest, and before the princes, and all the company, at the opening of the tent of meeting, saying:
3 Nivilasy am-patrambey añe ty rae’ay, f’ie tsy ni-mpiamo nifanontoñe niatreatre am’ Iehovào, tsy ni-mpiamy Kòrahke, fa nihomak’ amo hakeo’eo avao vaho tsy nanañ’ ana-dahy.
'Our father died in the wilderness, and he — he was not in the midst of the company who were met together against Jehovah in the company of Korah, but for his own sin he died, and had no sons;
4 Aa vaho hasintak’ aman-drolongo’e hao ty tahinan-drae’ay amy te tsy aman’ anadahy? Ehe anoloro lova amo longon-droae’aio.
why is the name of our father withdrawn from the midst of his family because he hath no son? give to us a possession in the midst of the brethren of our father;'
5 Nente’ i Mosè añatrefa’ Iehovà i saontsy zay.
and Moses bringeth near their cause before Jehovah.
6 Le nitsara amy Mosè t’Iehovà nanao ty hoe:
And Jehovah speaketh unto Moses, saying,
7 Mivolan-tò o anak’ ampela’ i Tselofekàdeo; toe hitolora’o lova amo lovan-drahalahin-drae’eo, vaho hampandovae’o ty lovan-drae’e.
'Rightly are the daughters of Zelophehad speaking; thou dost certainly give to them a possession of an inheritance in the midst of their father's brethren, and hast caused to pass over the inheritance of their father to them.
8 Le saontsio amo ana’ Israeleo ty hoe: Naho vilasy t’indaty tsy nampipok’ ana-dahy, le hampandovae’ areo o anak’ ampela’eo ty lova’e.
'And unto the sons of Israel thou dost speak, saying, When a man dieth, and hath no son, then ye have caused his inheritance to pass over to his daughter;
9 Aa ie tsy aman’ anak’ampela le hatolo’o an-droahalahi’e ty lova’e.
and if he have no daughter, then ye have given his inheritance to his brethren;
10 Aa ie tsy aman-drahalahy, le hatolo’o an-droahalahin-drae’e ty lova’e.
and if he have no brethren, then ye have given his inheritance to his father's brethren;
11 Aa naho tsy aman-drahalahy ty rae’e le hatolo’o amy ze longo marine aze amy fifokoa’ey i lova’ey, vaho ie ty handova aze; ho fañè-jaka amo ana’ Israeleo izay amy nandilia’ Iehovà i Mosèy.
and if his father have no brethren, then ye have given his inheritance to his relation who is near unto him of his family, and he hath possessed it;' and it hath been to the sons of Israel for a statute of judgment, as Jehovah hath commanded Moses.
12 Aa le hoe t’Iehovà amy Mosè: Mañambonea am-bohi’ Abarìme mb’ atoy, le oniño i tane atoloko amo ana’ Israeleoy.
And Jehovah saith unto Moses, 'Go up unto this mount Abarim, and see the land which I have given to the sons of Israel;
13 Aa ihe mahaisak’ aze, le hatontoñe amo longo’oo manahake ty nanontoñañe i Aharone amo rahalahi’eo.
and thou hast seen it, and thou hast been gathered unto thy people, also thou, as Aaron thy brother hath been gathered,
14 Amy te niola’o i lilikoy amy nifandiera’ i valobohòkey am-patrambei’ i Tsiney, ihe tsy nañonjoñe ty engeko añatrefa’ iereo amy ranoy. (Ie i rano natao Meribà e Kadese am-patram-bei’ i Tsiney.)
because ye provoked My mouth in the wilderness of Zin, in the strife of the company — to sanctify Me at the waters before their eyes;' they [are] waters of Meribah, in Kadesh, in the wilderness of Zin.
15 Le nisaontsy am’ Iehovà t’i Mosè nanao ty hoe,
And Moses speaketh unto Jehovah, saying,
16 Ee te hanendre ondaty hifehe i valobohòkey t’Iehovà Andrianañaharen’ arofo’ ze hene nofotse,
'Jehovah — God of the spirits of all flesh — appoint a man over the company,
17 ie ty hiakatse naho hizilik’ añatrefa’ iareo, naho hiaolo iareo te mionjoñe, vaho hampipoly iareo, tsy mone hanao lian’ añondry tsy amam-piarake ty valobohò’ Iehovà.
who goeth out before them, and who cometh in before them, and who taketh them out, and who bringeth them in, and the company of Jehovah is not as sheep which have no shepherd.'
18 Le hoe t’Iehovà amy Mosè: Rambeso t’Iehosoa, ana’ i None, ondaty aman’ arofo, le anampezo fitàñe;
And Jehovah saith unto Moses, 'Take to thee Joshua son of Nun, a man in whom [is] the Spirit, and thou hast laid thine hand upon him,
19 avotraho aolo’ i Elazare naho añatrefa’ i valobohòkey re le orizo am-pahaoniña’ iareo.
and hast caused him to stand before Eleazar the priest, and before all the company, and hast charged him before their eyes,
20 Le andivao ama’e ty lili’o, hivohora’ ty valobohò’ Israele.
and hast put of thine honour upon him, so that all the company of the sons of Israel do hearken.
21 Hijohañe añatrefa’ i Elazare mpisoroñe re, le ie ty hañontane ho aze ami’ ty fizakà’ i Orime añatrefan’ Añahare. Amy saontsi’ey ty hiavota’ iareo vaho amy saontsi’ey ty hiziliha’ iareo; ie naho o ana’ Israele mindre ama’eo, i valobohòkey.
'And before Eleazar the priest he standeth, and he hath asked for him by the judgment of the Lights before Jehovah; at His word they go out, and at His word they come in; he, and all the sons of Israel with him, even all the company.'
22 Aa le nanoe’ i Mosè i nandilia’ Iehovà azey. Rinambe’e t’Iehosoa vaho nampiheove’e añatrefa’ i Elazare mpisoroñe naho i valobohòkey;
And Moses doth as Jehovah hath commanded him, and taketh Joshua, and causeth him to stand before Eleazar the priest, and before all the company,
23 le nanongoa’e fitàñe vaho namantok’ aze, amy natoro’ Iehovà am-pità’ i Mosey.
and layeth his hands upon him, and chargeth him, as Jehovah hath spoken by the hand of Moses.
