Lakkoobsa 27

1 Balbala Minaasee ilma Yoosef keessaas intallan Zelofehaad ilma Heefer, ilma Giliʼaad, ilma Maakiirii fi ilma Minaaseetu dhiʼaate. Maqaan intallan sanaas Mahilaa, Nohii, Hoglaa, Miilkaa fi Tiirzaa dha.

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 Isaanis balbala dunkaana wal gaʼii dura, fuula Musee fi Eleʼaazaar lubichaa dura, fuula hooggantootaatii fi waldaa hundaa dura dhaabatanii akkana jedhan;

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 “Abbaan keenya Gammoojjii keessatti duʼe. Inni hooggantoota Qooraahi kanneen Waaqayyotti fincilan sana keessa hin turre. Garuu inni cubbudhuma ofii isaatiin duʼe. Ilmaanis hin qabu ture.

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 Maaliif maqaan abbaa keenyaa sababii inni ilma hin qabneef balbala isaa keessaa bada? Firoota abbaa keenyaa gidduutti dhaala nuu kenni.”

Why should the name of our father be done away from among his family, because he has no son? Give to us therefore a possession among the brothers of our father.

5 Museen dubbii isaanii sana fuula Waaqayyoo duratti dhiʼeesse;

And Moses brought their cause before the LORD.

6 Waaqayyos akkana jedheen;

And the LORD spoke to Moses, saying,

7 “Wanni intallan Zelofehaad jedhan kun sirrii dha. Atis firoota abbaa isaanii gidduutti dhaala kenniif; dhaala abbaa isaaniis isaaniif dabarsi.

The daughters of Zelophehad speak right: you shall surely give them a possession of an inheritance among their father’s brothers; and you shall cause the inheritance of their father to pass to them.

8 “Israaʼelootaan akkana jedhi; ‘Yoo namni utuu ilma hin dhalchin duʼe, dhaala isaa intala isaatiif dabarsaa.

And you shall speak to the children of Israel, saying, If a man die, and have no son, then you shall cause his inheritance to pass to his daughter.

9 Yoo inni intalas qabaachuu baate dhaala isaa obboloota isaatiif kennaa.

And if he have no daughter, then you shall give his inheritance to his brothers.

10 Yoo inni obboloota qabaachuu baate dhaala isaa obboloota abbaa isaatiif kennaa.

And if he have no brothers, then you shall give his inheritance to his father’s brothers.

11 Yoo abbaan isaa obboloota qabaachuu baate immoo dhaala isaa balbala isaa keessaa fira aanteef kennaa; firri sun haa dhaalu. Kunis akkuma Waaqayyo Musee ajaje sanatti saba Israaʼeliif sirna seera qabeessa haa taʼu.’”

And if his father have no brothers, then you shall give his inheritance to his kinsman that is next to him of his family, and he shall possess it: and it shall be to the children of Israel a statute of judgment, as the LORD commanded Moses.

12 Waaqayyo Museedhaan akkana jedhe; “Tulluu Abaariim kanatti ol baʼiitii biyya ani saba Israaʼeliif kenne ilaali.

And the LORD said to Moses, Get you up into this mount Abarim, and see the land which I have given to the children of Israel.

13 Erga biyya sana argitee booddee atis akkuma obboleessa kee Aroon gara saba keetiitti walitti qabamta;

And when you have seen it, you also shall be gathered to your people, as Aaron your brother was gathered.

14 yeroo waldaan Gammoojjii Siin keessatti natti finciletti isin lachanuus ajaja kootti finciltanii turtaniitii. Isin bishaanota sana biratti fuula isaanii duratti qulqullina koo hin mulʼifne.” Bishaanonni kunneenis bishaanota Mariibaa Qaadesh kan Gammoojjii Siin keessa jiranii dha.

For you 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 Museenis Waaqayyoon akkana jedhe;

And Moses spoke to the LORD, saying,

16 “Waaqayyo Waaqni hafuurota nama hundaa waldaa kana irratti nama tokko haa muudu;

Let the LORD, the God of the spirits of all flesh, set a man over the congregation,

17 namichi kunis akka sabni Waaqayyoo akkuma hoolota tiksee hin qabnee hin taaneef kan isaan dura gad baʼuu fi ol galu, kan gad isaan baasuu fi ol isaan galchuu dha.”

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 Waaqayyo Museedhaan akkana jedhe; “Iyyaasuu ilma Nuuni, namicha hafuurri keessa jiru sana fuudhii harka kee isa irra kaaʼi.

And the LORD said to Moses, Take you Joshua the son of Nun, a man in whom is the spirit, and lay your hand on him;

19 Akka inni fuula Eleʼaazaar lubichaatii fi fuula waldaa Israaʼel hundaa dura dhaabatu godhi; fuuluma isaanii durattis isa muudi.

And set him before Eleazar the priest, and before all the congregation; and give him a charge in their sight.

20 Akka sabni Israaʼel hundi isaaf ajajamuuf aangoo kee irraa kenniif.

And you shall put some of your honor on him, that all the congregation of the children of Israel may be obedient.

21 Innis fuula Eleʼaazaar lubichaa kan fuula Waaqayyoo duratti Uriimiidhaan gaafatee murtii isaaf kennuu dura dhaabachuu qaba. Innii fi waldaan Israaʼelootaa hundi ajaja isaatiin baʼu; ajajuma isaatiinis galu.”

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 Museen akkuma Waaqayyo isa ajaje sana godhe. Innis Iyyaasuu geessee akka inni fuula Eleʼaazaar lubichaatii fi fuula waldaa Israaʼel hundaa dura dhaabatu godhe.

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 Ergasiis akkuma Waaqayyo karaa Museetiin ajaje sana harka ofii isaa isa irra kaaʼee isa muude.

And he laid his hands on him, and gave him a charge, as the LORD commanded by the hand of Moses.
