गन्ती 36
1 त्यसपछि योसेफका सन्तानहरूका कुलका माकीरका (जो मनश्शेको छोरा थिए) छोरा गिलादको कुलका पुर्खाहरूका अगुवाहरू आए अनि
Then the leaders of the families of Gilead, the son of Machir, the son of Manasseh, from the stock of the sons of Joseph, approached and spoke to Moses before the leaders of Israel, and they said:
2 मोशा र इस्राएलका मानिसहरूका पुर्खाहरूका परिवारहरूको प्रमुखहरूको सामु भने, “परमप्रभुले हाम्रा मालिक तपाईंलाई इस्राएलका मानिसहरूलाई चिट्ठाद्वारा भूमिको हिस्सा दिने आज्ञा दिनुभयो । हाम्रो भाइ सलोफादको हिस्सा तिनका छोरीहरूलाई दिन परमप्रभुले तपाईंलाई आज्ञा गर्नुभएको थियो ।
“The Lord has instructed you, our ruler, so that you would divide the land by lot to the sons of Israel, and so that you would give to the daughters of Zelophehad, our brother, the possession owed to their father.
3 तर यदि तिनका छोरीहरूले इस्राएलका मानिसहरूको अन्य कुलका पुरुषसँग विवाह गरे भने, भूमिको तिनीहरूको हिस्सा हाम्रा पुर्खाहरूको हिस्साबाट हट्ने छ । यो तिनीहरू सहभागी हुने कुलको हिस्सामा थपिने छ ।
But if men of another tribe receive them as wives, their possession will follow them, and having been transferred to another tribe, there will be a reduction in our inheritance.
4 यस अवस्थामा यो हाम्रो अंशको तोकिएको हिस्साबाट हट्ने छ । त्यस अवस्थामा इस्राएलका मानिसहरूको पुनर्स्थापनाको वर्ष आउँदा तिनीहरूको हिस्सा तिनीहरू जोडिने कुलमा नै गाभिने छ । यसरी तिनीहरूको हिस्सा हाम्रो पुर्खाको कुलको हिस्साबाट लगिने छ ।”
And so it may be that, when the Jubilee of remission, that is, the fiftieth year, has arrived, the distribution by lots shall be confounded, and the possession of the one shall be transferred to others.”
5 त्यसैले मोशाले परमप्रभुको वचनमा इस्राएलका मानिसहरूलाई आज्ञा दिए, “योसेफका सन्तानहरूका कुलले भनेको कुरा सही हो ।
Moses answered the sons of Israel, and, at the instruction of the Lord, he said: “The tribe of the sons of Joseph has spoken correctly.
6 सलोफादका छोरीको बारेमा परमप्रभुले यो आज्ञा दिनुहुन्छ, 'तिनीहरू आफूलाई उत्तम लाग्ने मानिससँग विवाह गरून्, तर तिनीहरूले आफ्ना पिताको परिवारभित्र मात्र विवाह गर्नुपर्छ ।'
And so, this is the law which has been promulgated by the Lord about the daughters of Zelophehad: Let them marry whomever they may wish, but only among the men of their own tribe,
7 इस्राएलका मानिसहरूको कुनै पनि अंश एउटा कुलबाट अर्कोमा बद्ली गर्नुहुँदैन । इस्राएलका मानिसहरूको हरेक कुलले आ-आफ्नो पुर्खाको कुलको अंशलाई निरन्तरता दिनुपर्छ ।
lest the possession of the sons of Israel become commingled, from tribe to tribe. For all men shall take wives from their own tribe and kinship;
8 आफ्नो कुलमा अंश पाउने हेरक महिलाले आफ्नै पिताको कुलको परिवारभित्र मात्र विवाह गर्नुपर्छ, ताकि इस्राएलका मानिस हरेकले आ-आफ्नो पुर्खाहरूबाटको अंश पाओस् ।
and all women shall take husbands from their same tribe, so that the inheritance may remain within the families,
9 कुनै पनि हिस्सा एउटा कुलबाट अर्कोमा बद्ली गर्नुहुँदैन । इस्राएलका मानिसको कुलको हरेकले आ-आफ्नो अंश सुरक्षित राख्नुपर्छ ।”
and so that the tribes may not be mingled together, but may remain such as they were separated by the Lord.”
10 त्यसैले सलोफादका छोरीहरूले परमप्रभुले आज्ञा गर्नुभएबमोजिम गरे ।
And the daughters of Zelophehad acted according to what was ordered.
11 सलोफादका छोरी महला, तिर्सा, होग्ला, मिल्का र नोआहले मनश्शेका सन्तानहरूसँग विवाह गरे ।
And Mahlah, and Tirzah, and Hoglah, and Milcah, and Noa were wed to the sons of their paternal uncle,
12 तिनीहरूले योसेफका छोरा मनश्शेका सन्तानहरूका कुलहरूमा विवाह गरे । यसरी तिनीहरूको हिस्सा तिनीहरूको पिताको कुलभित्र नै रह्यो ।
from the family of Manasseh, who was a son of Joseph. And the possession which had been distributed to them remained in the tribe and family of their father.
13 परमप्रभुले मोशाद्वारा यरीहोमा यर्दन नजिक मोआबको मैदानमा इस्राएलका मानिसहरूलाई दिनुभएका आज्ञाहरू र नियमहरू यिनै हुन् ।
These are the commandments and judgments which the Lord ordered by the hand of Moses to the sons of Israel, in the plains of Moab, above the Jordan, opposite Jericho.
