Nomery 36
1 Niharine mb’eo o mpiaolon’ anjomban-droaem-pifokoan-tarira’ i Gilade ana’ i Makire, ana’ i Menasè, hasavereña’ o ana’ Iosefeoo vaho nilañoñe añatrefa’ i Mosè naho o talèo naho o talèn’ anjomban-droae’ o ana’ Israeleoo,
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 nanao ty hoe: Linili’ Iehovà i talèkoy ty hanolotse i tane lovaeñey an-tsapake; vaho linili’ Iehovà i talèkoy ty hanolotse i lovan-drahalahi’ay Tselofekhàdey amo anak’ ampela’eo.
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 Aa naho ivalia’ ty anam-pifokoa ila’e amo ana’ Israeleo, le ho rambeseñe ami’ty lovan-droae’ay ty lova’ iareo vaho ho tovoñañe ami’ty lova’ i fifokoañe nivalie’ey; aa le ho liniva amy lova niazo’ay an-tsapakey.
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 Le ie avy i Jobili’ o ana’ Israeleio, ho tovoñañe ami’ ty lova’ i fifokoañe nañeng’ azey i lova’ey; le ho livaeñe ami’ ty lovam-pifokoan-droae’ay i lova’ey.
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 Le hoe ty linili’ i Mosè amo ana’ Israeleo ty amy tsara’ Iehovày, To ty saontsi’ o tariram-pifokoa’ Iosefeo.
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 Aa hoe ty linili’ Iehovà omba o anak’ ampela’ i Tselofekhàdeo: angao hifanambaly amy ze tea’e fe tsy mete tsy amo tariram-pifokoan-droae’eo avao ty anambalia’ iareo.
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 Aa le tsy hafindra am-pifokoañe raike ho ami’ty fifokoañe ila’e o lovao; fa songa hitañe ty lovam-pifokoan-droae’e o ana’ Israeleo.
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 Le hanambaly ami’ty fifokoan-droae’e ze anak’ ampela mitan-dova ami’ty fifokoañe raik’ amo ana’ Israeleo, soa te songa hitan-dovan-droae’e o ana’ Israeleo.
And all women shall take husbands of the same tribe: that the inheritance may remain in the families,
9 Aa le tsy hafindra ho ami’ty fifokoañe ila’e ty lova fa sambe mitan-ty lova’e o fifokoan’ ana’ Israeleo.
And that the tribes be not mingled one with another, but remain so
10 Nanoe’ o anak’ampela’ i Tselofekadeo ty nandilia’ Iehovà i Mosè.
As they were separated by the Lord. And the daughters of Salphaad did as was commanded:
11 Le nifanambaly ami’ty anan-drahalahin-drae’e t’i Maklà, i Tirtsà, naho i Koglà vaho i Noà ana’ i Tselofekade.
And Maala, and Thersa, and Hegla, and Melcha, and Noa were married to the sons of their uncle by their father,
12 Nifanambaly amo tarira’ o nte-Menasè ana’ Iosefeo iereo vaho mireketse am-pifokoan-droae’e ao ty lova’ iareo.
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 Irezay ro lily naho fepetse linili’ Iehovà amo ana’ Israeleo am-pità’ i Mosè a montom-bei’ i Moabe añ’ olo’ Iordaney tandrife Ierikò eo.
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.
