Lakkoobsa 36

1 Abbootiin maatii ilmaan Giliʼaad ilma Maakiir, ilma Minaasee kanneen maatiiwwan ilmaan Yoosef keessaa dhufan sun fuula Museetii fi fuula hooggantoota abbootii maatiiwwan saba Israaʼel duratti dhiʼaatanii dubbatan;

And the heads of the fathers of the family of the sons of Gilead, the son of Machir, the son of Manasseh, of the families of the sons of Joseph, came near, and spoke before Moses, and before the rulers, the heads of the fathers of the sons of Israel.

2 akkanas jedhan; “Akka ati biyyattii dhaala gootee ixaadhaan saba Israaʼeliif kennituuf Waaqayyo Gooftaa koo ajajeera; akkasumas akka ati dhaala obboleessi keenya Zelofehaad intallan isaatiif kennitu inni si ajajeera.

And they said, Jehovah commanded my lord to give the land for inheritance by lot to the sons of Israel. And my lord was commanded by Jehovah to give the inheritance of Zelophehad our brother to his daughters.

3 Garuu yoo isaan ilmaan gosoota saba Israaʼel kaanitti heeruman dhaalli isaanii dhaala abbootii keenyaa keessaa fuudhamee dhaala gosa isaan itti heerumaniitti dabalama. Yoos dhaala ixaadhaan nuu qoodame irraa gariin isaa ni fuudhama.

And if they be married to any of the sons of the other tribes of the sons of Israel, then their inheritance will be taken away from the inheritance of our fathers, and will be added to the inheritance of the tribe to which they shall belong. So it will be taken away from the lot of our inheritance.

4 Yommuu Waggaan Iyyoobeeliyyuu kan saba Israaʼel dhufutti dhaalli isaanii sun dhaala gosa isaan itti heerumaniitti dabalama; dhaalli isaaniis dhaala gosa abbootii keenyaa irraa fudhatama.”

And when the jubilee of the sons of Israel shall be, then their inheritance will be added to the inheritance of the tribe to which they shall belong. So their inheritance will be taken away from the inheritance of the tribe of our fathers.

5 Kana irratti Museen akkuma Waaqayyo dubbate sana akkana jedhee saba Israaʼel ajaje: “Wanni gosti ilmaan Yoosef jedhu sirrii dha.

And Moses commanded the sons of Israel according to the word of Jehovah, saying, The tribe of the sons of Joseph speak right.

6 Wanni Waaqayyo waaʼee intallan Zelofehaad ajaje kanaa dha: Isaan gosa abbaa isaanii qofa keessaa haa taʼu malee nama jaallatanitti haa heeruman.

This is the thing which Jehovah commands concerning the daughters of Zelophehad, saying, Let them be married to whom they think best, only into the family of the tribe of their father shall they be married.

7 Sababii tokkoon tokkoon ilmaan Israaʼel dhaala gosa abbaa isaa irraa argatu jabeessee qabatuuf, dhaalli ilmaan Israaʼel gosa tokko irraa gosa kaanitti hin darbin.

So no inheritance of the sons of Israel shall remove from tribe to tribe, for the sons of Israel shall cling each one to the inheritance of the tribe of his fathers.

8 Akka tokkoon tokkoon ilmaan Israaʼel dhaala abbootii isaa argatuuf, gosa ilmaan Israaʼel keessaa intalli dhaala argattu kam iyyuu gosa abbaa ishee keessaa nama tokkotti heerumuu qabdi.

And every daughter, who possesses an inheritance in any tribe of the sons of Israel, shall be wife to one of the family of the tribe of her father, that the sons of Israel may possess every man the inheritance of his fathers.

9 Sababii tokkoon tokkoon gosa ilmaan Israaʼel dhaala ofii isaa jabeessee qabatuuf, dhaalli tokko iyyuu gosa tokko irraa gosa kaanitti hin darbin.”

So no inheritance shall move from one tribe to another tribe, for the tribes of the sons of Israel shall cling each one to his own inheritance.

10 Intallan Zelofehaad akkuma Waaqayyo Musee ajaje sana godhan.

Even as Jehovah commanded Moses, so did the daughters of Zelophehad,

11 Intallan Zelofehaad Mahilaan, Tiirzaan, Hoglaan, Miilkaa fi Nohi ilmaan obboloota abbaa isaaniitti heeruman.

for Mahlah, Tirzah, and Hoglah, and Milcah, and Noah, the daughters of Zelophedad, were married to their father's brothers' sons.

12 Isaanis maatiiwwan ilmaan Minaasee ilma Yoosef keessatti waan heerumaniif dhaalli isaanii gosa maatii abbaa isaanii harkatti hafe.

They were married into the families of the sons of Manasseh the son of Joseph, and their inheritance remained in the tribe of the family of their father.

13 Ajajawwanii fi murtiiwwan Waaqayyo dirreewwan Moʼaab irratti, Yordaanos biratti, Yerikoo gamatti karaa Museetiin ilmaan Israaʼeliif kenne kanneenii dha.

These are the commandments and the ordinances which Jehovah commanded by Moses to the sons of Israel in the plains of Moab by the Jordan at Jericho.
