Tauanga 27
1 Na ka haere mai nga tamahine a Teropehara tama a Hewhere, he tama hoki ia na Kirera, tama a Makiri, tama a Manahi; no nga hapu o Manahi, tama a Hohepa: a ko nga ingoa enei o ana tamahine; ko Mahara, ko Noa, ko Hokora, ko Mirika, ko Tirita.
Then came the daughters of Zelophehad, the son of Hepher, the son of Gilead, the son of Machir, the son of Manasseh, of the families of Manasseh the son of Joseph: and these [are] the names of his daughters; Mahlah, Noah, and Hoglah, and Milcah, and Tirzah.
2 A ka tu ratou ki te aroaro o Mohi, ki te aroaro hoki o Ereatara tohunga, ki te aroaro ano o nga rangatira, o te whakaminenga katoa hoki, ki te whatitoka o te tapenakara o te whakaminenga, a ka mea,
And they stood before Moses, and before Eleazar the priest, and before the princes and all the congregation, [by] the door of the tabernacle of the congregation, saying,
3 I mate to matou papa ki te koraha, kahore hoki ia i roto i te hui o te hunga i huihui ki te whawhai ki a Ihowa i roto i te hui a Koraha: engari i mate ia i runga i tona hara ake, kahore ano hoki ana tama.
Our father died in the wilderness, and he was not in the company of them that gathered themselves together against the LORD in the company of Korah; but died in his own sin, and had no sons.
4 He aha i whakakorea ai te ingoa o to matou papa i roto i tona hapu, i a ia kahore nei i whai tama? Homai he wahi ki a matou i roto i nga teina o to matu papa.
Why should the name of our father be done away from among his family, because he hath no son? Give unto us [therefore] a possession among the brethren of our father.
5 Na ka kawea ta ratou korero e Mohi ki te aroaro o Ihowa.
And Moses brought their cause before the LORD.
6 A ka korero a Ihowa ki a Mohi, ka mea,
And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
7 He tika nga korero a nga tamahine a Teropehara: me hoatu tetahi wahi ki a ratou hei kainga tupu i roto i nga teina o to ratou papa: me whakariro ki a ratou te kainga tupu o to ratou papa.
The daughters of Zelophehad speak right: thou shalt surely give them a possession of an inheritance among their father’s brethren; and thou shalt cause the inheritance of their father to pass unto them.
8 Me korero ano hoki e koe ki nga tama a Iharaira, me ki atu, Ki te mate te tangata, a kahore ana tama, na me whakariro tona kainga tupu ki tana tamahine.
And thou shalt speak unto the children of Israel, saying, If a man die, and have no son, then ye shall cause his inheritance to pass unto his daughter.
9 A ki te kahore ana tamahine, na, me hoatu tona kainga tupu ki ona tuakana, teina ranei.
And if he have no daughter, then ye shall give his inheritance unto his brethren.
10 A ki te kahore ona tuakana, teina ranei, na, me hoatu tona kainga tupu ki te tuakana, teina ranei o tona papa.
And if he have no brethren, then ye shall give his inheritance unto his father’s brethren.
11 A ki te kahore he tuakana, teina ranei o tona papa, na, me hoatu tona kainga tupu ki tona whanaunga o tona hapu e tata ana ki a ia, a ka riro a reira i a ia: me waiho hoki tena hei tikanga whakaritenga ma nga tama a Iharaira; ko ta Ihowa hoki i whakahau ai ki a Mohi.
And if his father have no brethren, then ye shall give his inheritance unto his kinsman that is next to him of his family, and he shall possess it: and it shall be unto the children of Israel a statute of judgment, as the LORD commanded Moses.
12 I mea ano a Ihowa ki a Mohi, E piki koe ki tenei maunga, ki Aparimi, ka titiro atu ki te whenua ka hoatu nei e ahau ki nga tama a Iharaira.
And the LORD said unto Moses, Get thee up into this mount Abarim, and see the land which I have given unto the children of Israel.
13 A ka kitea e koe, na ka kohia atu hoki koe ki tou iwi, ka peratia me tou tuakana, me Arona i kohia atu nei:
And when thou hast seen it, thou also shalt be gathered unto thy people, as Aaron thy brother was gathered.
14 Mo korua i whakatoi ki taku kupu i te koraha o Hini, i te ngangautanga a te whakaminenga, a kihai i whakatapu i ahau i to ratou aroaro, i te wai. Ko te wai o Meripa tena i Karehe, i te koraha o Hini.
For ye rebelled against my commandment in the desert of Zin, in the strife of the congregation, to sanctify me at the water before their eyes: that [is] the water of Meribah in Kadesh in the wilderness of Zin.
15 A i korero a Mohi ki a Ihowa, i mea,
And Moses spake unto the LORD, saying,
16 Kia whakaritea e Ihowa, e te Atua o nga wairua o nga kikokiko katoa, tetahi tangata mo te whakaminenga,
Let the LORD, the God of the spirits of all flesh, set a man over the congregation,
17 Hei haere atu i to ratou aroaro, hei haere mai hoki i to ratou aroaro, hei arahi atu hoki i a ratou, hei arahi mai ano i a ratou; kei rite hoki te whakaminenga a Ihowa ki nga hipi kahore nei o ratou hepara.
Which may go out before them, and which may go in before them, and which may lead them out, and which may bring them in; that the congregation of the LORD be not as sheep which have no shepherd.
18 Na ka mea a Ihowa ki a Mohi, Tangohia mai ki a koe a Hohua tama a Nunu, he tangata kei a ia nei te wairua, ka popoki ai ou ringa ki runga ki a ia:
And the LORD said unto Moses, Take thee Joshua the son of Nun, a man in whom [is] the spirit, and lay thine hand upon him;
19 Ka whakatu ai hoki i a ia ki te aroaro o Ereatara tohunga, ki te aroaro ano hoki o te whakaminenga katoa, ka whakahau ai i a ia i ta ratou tirohanga.
And set him before Eleazar the priest, and before all the congregation; and give him a charge in their sight.
20 Me hoatu ano e koe tetahi wahi o tou kororia ki runga ki a ia, kia rongo ai te whakaminenga katoa o nga tama a Iharaira.
And thou shalt put [some] of thine honour upon him, that all the congregation of the children of Israel may be obedient.
21 A ka tu ia ki te aroaro o Ereatara tohunga, ko tera ano hei kaitono whakaaro mana, i ta te Urimi e whakarite ai i te aroaro o Ihowa: ma tana kupu e haere atu ai, ma tana kupu e haere mai ai ratou, i ia, me nga tama katoa a Iharaira, ara te whaka minenga katoa.
And he shall stand before Eleazar the priest, who shall ask [counsel] for him after the judgment of Urim before the LORD: at his word shall they go out, and at his word they shall come in, [both] he, and all the children of Israel with him, even all the congregation.
22 Na pena ana a Mohi me ta Ihowa i whakahau ai ki a ia: a tangohia mai ana e ia a Hohua, whakaturia ana ki te aroaro o Ereatara tohunga, ki te aroaro ano o te whakaminenga katoa:
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 A pokia iho e ia ona ringa ki runga ki a ia, me te whakahau ano ki a ia i ta Ihowa i korerotia e Mohi.
And he laid his hands upon him, and gave him a charge, as the LORD commanded by the hand of Moses.
