1 Kwasekusondela inhloko zaboyise zensendo zabantwana bakoGileyadi indodana kaMakiri indodana kaManase, abosendo lwabantwana bakoJosefa, zakhuluma phambi kukaMozisi laphambi kweziphathamandla, inhloko zaboyise babantwana bakoIsrayeli,
Atongoria a nyũmba cia mbarĩ ya Gileadi mũrũ wa Makiru, mũrũ wa Manase, arĩa maarĩ a mbarĩ cia njiaro cia Jusufu, nĩmathiire na makĩaria marĩ mbere ya Musa na atongoria arĩa matongoragia nyũmba cia andũ a Isiraeli.
2 zathi: INkosi yalaya inkosi yami ukuthi iphe abantwana bakoIsrayeli ilizwe njengelifa ngenkatho; futhi inkosi yami yalaywa yiNkosi ukuthi inike ilifa likaZelofehadi umfowethu kumadodakazi akhe.
Makiuga atĩrĩ, “Rĩrĩa Jehova aathire mwathi wakwa aheane bũrũri ũtuĩke igai rĩa andũ a Isiraeli na ũndũ wa gũcuukĩra mĩtĩ-rĩ, Jehova nĩagwathire ũheane igai rĩa mũrũ wa ithe witũ Zelofehadi kũrĩ airĩtu ake.
3 Uba esendela kwenye yamadodana ezizwe zabantwana bakoIsrayeli, ilifa lawo lizasuswa elifeni labobaba, lengezelelwe elifeni lalesosizwe azakuba ngawaso; ngalokho lizasuswa kunkatho yelifa lethu.
Na rĩrĩ, mangĩkaahikio nĩ andũ a mĩhĩrĩga ĩyo ĩngĩ ya andũ a Isiraeli, hĩndĩ ĩyo igai rĩao nĩrĩkeherio igai-inĩ rĩa maithe maitũ rĩonganĩrĩrio na igai rĩa mũhĩrĩga ũrĩa makaahikĩra. Nĩ ũndũ ũcio-rĩ, gĩcunjĩ kĩa igai rĩrĩa twagaĩirwo nĩrĩkeherio.
4 Lalapho kuzakuba lijubili labantwana bakoIsrayeli, ilifa lawo lizakwengezelelwa elifeni lalesosizwe azakuba ngawaso; ngalokho ilifa lawo lizasuswa elifeni lesizwe sabobaba.
Rĩrĩa mwaka wa Jubilii wa andũ a Isiraeli ũgaakinya-rĩ, igai rĩao nĩrĩkonganĩrĩrio na igai rĩa mũhĩrĩga ũrĩa makaahikĩra, narĩo igai rĩao rĩeherio kuuma kũrĩ igai rĩa mũhĩrĩga wa maithe maitũ.”
5 UMozisi waselaya abantwana bakoIsrayeli ngokomlomo weNkosi esithi: Isizwe sabantwana bakoJosefa sikhulume kuhle.
Nake Musa, kũringana na watho wa Jehova, agĩatha andũ a Isiraeli, akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Ũguo mũhĩrĩga wa njiaro cia Jusufu ũroiga nĩ ũndũ wa kĩhooto.
6 Le yinto iNkosi eyilayileyo mayelana lamadodakazi kaZelofehadi isithi: Kawendele kulabo abahle emehlweni awo, kodwa kawendele osendweni lwesizwe sikayise.
Ũũ nĩguo Jehova athanĩte nĩ ũndũ wa airĩtu a Zelofehadi: No mahikĩre mũndũ o wothe ũrĩa mangĩĩendera, angĩkorwo mekũhika thĩinĩ wa mũhĩrĩga wa ithe wao.
7 Ngalokho ilifa labantwana bakoIsrayeli kalingabhodi lisuke esizweni liye esizweni, ngoba abantwana bakoIsrayeli bazanamathela, ngulowo lalowo elifeni lesizwe saboyise.
Gũtirĩ igai thĩinĩ wa Isiraeli rĩkoima mũhĩrĩga ũmwe rĩtuĩke rĩa mũhĩrĩga ũngĩ, nĩgũkorwo Mũisiraeli o wothe nĩagatũũria gĩthaka kĩa mũhĩrĩga kĩrĩa maagaire kuuma kũrĩ maithe mao ma tene.
8 Layileyo laleyo indodakazi edla ilifa esizweni sabantwana bakoIsrayeli izakwendela komunye wosendo wesizwe sikayise, ukuze abantwana bakoIsrayeli badle ilifa, omunye lomunye ilifa laboyise.
Mũirĩtu o wothe ũkaagaya gĩthaka mũhĩrĩga-inĩ o wothe wa Isiraeli, no nginya ahikĩre mũndũ wa nyũmba ya mũhĩrĩga wa ithe, nĩgeetha Mũisiraeli o wothe atũũre enyiitĩire igai rĩa maithe.
9 Ngalokho ilifa kaliyikubhoda lisuke esizweni liye kwesinye isizwe, ngoba izizwe zabantwana bakoIsrayeli zizanamathela, ngulowo lalowo elifeni lakhe.
Gũtirĩ igai rĩkoima mũhĩrĩga ũmwe rĩtuĩke rĩa mũhĩrĩga ũngĩ, nĩgũkorwo o mũhĩrĩga wa andũ a Isiraeli ũrĩtũũragia gĩthaka kĩrĩa ũgaĩte.”
10 Njengokulaya kweNkosi kuMozisi enza njalo amadodakazi kaZelofehadi;
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio airĩtu acio a Zelofehadi magĩĩka o ta ũrĩa Jehova aathĩte Musa.
11 ngoba uMahla, uTiriza, loHogila, loMilka, loNowa, amadodakazi kaZelofehadi, endela emadodaneni abafowabo bakayise.
Airĩtu a Zelofehadi, nĩo Mahala, na Tiriza, na Hogila, na Milika, na Noa, maahikirio nĩ ariũ a mũrũ wa nyina na ithe wao.
12 Endela kunsendo zabantwana bakoManase indodana kaJosefa, lelifa lawo lahlala esizweni sosendo lukayise.
Maahikire thĩinĩ wa mbarĩ cia njiaro cia Manase mũrũ wa Jusufu, narĩo igai rĩao rĩgĩikara mbarĩ-inĩ na mũhĩrĩga-inĩ wa ithe wao.
13 Le yimilayo lezahlulelo iNkosi eyazilaya abantwana bakoIsrayeli ngesandla sikaMozisi emagcekeni akoMowabi eJordani eJeriko.
Macio nĩmo mawatho na matuĩro ma kũrũmĩrĩrwo marĩa Jehova aathire Musa eere andũ a Isiraeli marĩ kũu werũ wa Moabi hũgũrũrũ-inĩ cia Rũũĩ rwa Jorodani mũrĩmo ũrĩa ũngĩ wa Jeriko.
