The heads of the fathers’ households of the family of the children of Gilead, the son of Machir, the son of Manasseh, of the families of the sons of Joseph, came near and spoke before Moses and before the princes, the heads of the fathers’ households of the children of Israel.
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.
They said, “The LORD commanded my lord to give the land for inheritance by lot to the children of Israel. My lord was commanded by the LORD to give the inheritance of Zelophehad our brother to his daughters.
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.
If they are married to any of the sons of the other tribes of the children of Israel, then their inheritance will be taken away from the inheritance of our fathers, and will be added to the inheritance of the tribe to which they shall belong. So it will be taken away from the lot 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.
When the jubilee of the children of Israel comes, then their inheritance will be added to the inheritance of the tribe to which they shall belong. So their inheritance will be taken away from the inheritance of the tribe of our fathers.”
5 Le hoe ty linili’ i Mosè amo ana’ Israeleo ty amy tsara’ Iehovày, To ty saontsi’ o tariram-pifokoa’ Iosefeo.
Moses commanded the children of Israel according to the LORD’s word, saying, “The tribe of the sons of Joseph speak what is right.
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.
This is the thing which the LORD commands concerning the daughters of Zelophehad, saying, ‘Let them be married to whom they think best, only they shall marry into the family of the tribe of their father.
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.
So shall no inheritance of the children of Israel move from tribe to tribe; for the children of Israel shall all keep the inheritance of the tribe of his fathers.
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.
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 each possess the inheritance of his fathers.
9 Aa le tsy hafindra ho ami’ty fifokoañe ila’e ty lova fa sambe mitan-ty lova’e o fifokoan’ ana’ Israeleo.
So shall no inheritance move from one tribe to another tribe; for the tribes of the children of Israel shall each keep his own inheritance.’”
10 Nanoe’ o anak’ampela’ i Tse­lofekadeo ty nandilia’ Iehovà i Mosè.
The daughters of Zelophehad did as the LORD commanded Moses:
11 Le nifanambaly ami’ty anan-drahalahin-drae’e t’i Maklà, i Tirtsà, naho i Koglà vaho i Noà ana’ i Tselofekade.
for Mahlah, Tirzah, Hoglah, Milcah, and Noah, the daughters of Zelophehad, were married to their father’s brothers’ sons.
12 Nifanambaly amo tarira’ o nte-Menasè ana’ Iosefeo iereo vaho mireketse am-pifokoan-droae’e ao ty lova’ iareo.
They were married into the families of the sons of Manasseh the son of Joseph. Their inheritance remained in the tribe of the 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 the ordinances which the LORD commanded by Moses to the children of Israel in the plains of Moab by the Jordan at Jericho.
