< गन्ती 27 >
1 योसेफका छोरा मनश्शेका कुलका, मनश्शेका छोरा माकीर, माकीरका छोरा गिलेद, गिलेदका छोरा हेपेर, हेपेरका छोरा सलोफादका छोरीहरू मोशाकहाँ आए । तिनका छोरीहरूका नाउँ यिनै थिएः महला, नोआह, होग्ला, मिल्का र तिर्सा ।
And there came nigh the daughters of Zelophehad, the son of Chepher, the son of Gil'ad, the son of Machir, the son of Manasseh, of the families of Menasseh the son of Joseph: and these are the names of his daughters, Machlah, No'ah, and Choglah, and Milcah, and Tirzah.
2 तिनीहरू भेट हुने पालको प्रवेश-द्वारमा मोशा, पुजारी एलाजार, अगुवाहरू र सारा समुदायको सामु खडा भए ।
And they stood before Moses, and before Elazar the priest, and before the princes, and all the congregation, by the door of the tabernacle of the congregation, saying,
3 तिनीहरूले भने, “हाम्रा बुबा मरुभूमिमा मरे । तिनी परमप्रभुको विरुद्धमा विद्रोह गर्ने कोरहको दलमा थिएनन् । तिनी आफ्नै पापको कारण मरे र तिनका कुनै छोराहरू छैनन् ।
Our father died in the wilderness; but he was not among the company of those that gathered themselves together against the Lord in the company of Korach; but in his own sin he died, and sons he had not.
4 तिनका छोराहरू नभएकै कारण हाम्रा बुबाको नाउँ तिनका कुलका सदस्यहरूको बिचबाट किन निर्मूल गर्ने? हामीहरूलाई हाम्रा बुबाका नातेदारहरूमाझ जग्गा दिनुहोस् ।”
Why should the name of our father be done away from the midst of his family, because he hath no son? Give unto us a possession among the brothers of our father.
5 त्यसैले मोशाले तिनीहरूको विषयलाई परमप्रभुकहाँ ल्याए ।
And Moses brought their cause before the Lord.
6 परमप्रभुले मोशालाई भन्नुभयो,
And the Lord spoke unto Moses, saying,
7 “सलोफादका छोरीहरूले ठिकै भनिरहेका छन् । तैँले तिनीहरूलाई तिनीहरूका बुबाका नातेदारहरूमाझ उत्तराधिकारको रूपमा अंश दिनुपर्छ र तिनीहरूका बुबाको उत्तराधिकार तिनीहरूकै स्वामित्वमा रहोस् भनी तैँले निश्चय गर्नुपर्छ ।
The daughters of Zelophehad speak rightly: thou shalt indeed give them a possession as an inheritance among the brothers of their father; and thou shalt cause the inheritance of their father to pass unto them.
8 तैँले इस्राएलका मानिसहरूलाई भन्, 'यदि कुनै मानिस मर्छ र त्यसको छोरा छैन भने, तिमीहरूले त्यसको सम्पत्ति त्यसकी छोरीलाई दिनुपर्छ ।
And unto the children of Israel shalt thou speak, saying, If a man die, and have no son, then shall ye cause his inheritance to pass unto his daughter.
9 यदि त्यसकी छोरी छैन भने, तिमीहरूले त्यसको अंश त्यसको आफ्नो भाइलाई दिनुपर्छ ।
And if he have no daughter, then shall ye give his inheritance unto his brothers.
10 यदि त्यसको भाइ छैन भने, तिमीहरूले त्यसको अंश त्यसका बुबाका भाइहरूलाई दिनुपर्छ ।
And if he have no brothers, then shall ye give his inheritance unto his father's brothers.
11 यदि त्यसका बुबाका भाइहरू छैनन् भने, तिमीहरूले त्यसको अंश त्यसको कुलको सबैभन्दा नजिकको नातेदारलाई दिनुपर्छ । त्यसले त्यो आफ्नो निम्ति ग्रहण गर्नुपर्छ । यो परमप्रभुले मलाई आज्ञा गर्नुभएअनुसार इस्राएलका मानिसहरूका निम्ति आदेशद्वारा स्थापित गरिएको नियम हुने छ' ।”
And if his father have no brothers, then shall ye give his inheritance unto his kinsman that is next to him of his family, and he shall inherit it; and it shall be unto the children of Israel a statute of justice, as the Lord hath commanded Moses.
12 परमप्रभुले मोशालाई भन्नुभयो, “अबारीम पर्वतमाथि जा र मैले इस्राएलका मानिसहरूलाई दिएको भूमिलाई हेर् ।
And the Lord said unto Moses, Go thou up unto this mount of 'Abarim, and see the land which I have given unto the children of Israel.
13 तैँले यसलाई हेरेपछि तँ पनि तेरा दाजु हारूनजस्तै तेरा मानिसहरूकहाँ जानुपर्छ ।
And when thou hast seen it, then shalt thou also be gathered unto thy people, as Aaron thy brother hath been gathered.
14 तिमीहरू दुवै जनाले सीनको मरुभूमिमा मेरो आज्ञा विरुद्ध विद्रोह गरेको हुनाले यस्तो हुने छ । त्यहाँ चट्टानबाट पानी बगेर निस्कँदा तिमीहरूका रिसमा तिमीहरूले सारा समुदायको नजरमा पवित्र जनको रूपमा मलाई आदर गर्न चुक्यौ ।” यो घटना सीनको मरूभूमिको कादेशको मेरीबाको पानीमा भएको थियो ।
Because ye rebelled against my order in the desert of Zin, at the quarreling of the congregation, to sanctify me through the waters before their eyes: these are the waters of Meribah in Kadesh, in the wilderness of Zin.
15 त्यसपछि मोशाले परमप्रभुलाई भने,
And Moses spoke unto the Lord, saying,
16 “हे सबै मानव-जातिका आत्माका परमप्रभु परमेश्वर, समुदायमाथि एक जना मानिस नियुक्त गर्नुहोस्,
Let the Lord, the God of the spirits of all flesh, appoint a man over the congregation,
17 एउटा यस्तो मानिस जो तिनीहरूको अघिअघि बाहिर जाओस् र भित्र आओस् अनि तिनीहरूलाई बाहिर जाँदा र भित्र आउँदा नेतृत्व गरोस्, ताकि तपाईंका समुदाय गोठालोविनाका भेडाहरूजस्ता नहोऊन् ।”
Who may go out before them, and who may come in before them, and who may lead them out, and who may bring them in; that the congregation of the Lord be not as a flock which have no shepherd.
18 परमप्रभुले मोशालाई भन्नुभयो, “नूनका छोरा यहोशूलाई ले, एउटा मानिस जसमा मेरो आत्मा छ र त्यसमाथि तेरो हात राख् ।
And the Lord said unto Moses, Take to thyself Joshua the son of Nun, a man in whom there is a spirit, and thou shalt lay thy hand upon him;
19 त्यसलाई पुजारी एलाजार र सबै समुदाय सामु राख् र तिनीहरूको सामुन्ने नै तिनीहरूलाई नेतृत्व गर्न त्यसलाई आज्ञा दे ।
And thou shalt cause him to stand before Elazar the priest, and before all the congregation; and thou shalt give him a charge before their eyes.
20 तैँले तेरो केही अधिकार त्यसलाई दिनुपर्छ, ताकि इस्राएलका मानिसहरूका सबै समुदायले तिनको आज्ञा पालन गरून् ।
And thou shalt put some of thy greatness upon him; in order that all the congregation of the children of Israel may be obedient.
21 त्यो ऊरीमको निर्णयद्वारा आफ्नो निम्ति मेरो इच्छा खोज्न पुजारी एलाजारको सामु जाने छ । त्यो र इस्राएलका सबै मानिस अर्थात् सारा समुदाय त्यसको आज्ञामा नै बाहिर जाने छन् र भित्र आउने छन् ।”
And before Elazar the priest shall he stand, and he shall ask of him after the judgment of the Urim before the Lord: at his direction shall they go out, and at his direction shall they come in, he, and all the children of Israel with him, and all the congregation.
22 त्यसैले मोशाले परमप्रभुले तिनलाई आज्ञा गर्नुभएबमोजिम गरे । तिनले यहोशूलाई लिए र पुजारी एलाजार र सारा समुदायको सामु राखे ।
And Moses did, as the Lord had commanded him; and he took Joshua, and caused him to stand before Elazar the priest, and before all the congregation;
23 तिनले उनीमाथि आफ्ना हात राखे र परमप्रभुले तिनलाई आज्ञा गर्नुभएझैँ नेतृत्व गर्न उनलाई आज्ञा दिए ।
And he laid his hands upon him, and gave him a charge: as the Lord had commanded by the hand of Moses.
