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 princes of the families of Galaad, the son of Machir, the son of Manasses, of the stock Of the children of Joseph, came and spoke to Moses before the princes of Israel, and said:
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.
The Lord hath commanded thee, my lord, that thou shouldst divide the land by lot to the children of Israel, and that thou shouldst give to the daughters of Salphaad our brother the possession due to their father:
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.
Now if men of another tribe take them to wives, their possession will follow them, and being transferred to another tribe, will be a diminishing 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 so it shall come to pass, that when the jubilee, that is, the fiftieth year of remission, is come, the distribution made by the lots shall be confounded, and the possession of the one shall pass to the others.
5 Kana irratti Museen akkuma Waaqayyo dubbate sana akkana jedhee saba Israaʼel ajaje: “Wanni gosti ilmaan Yoosef jedhu sirrii dha.
Moses answered the children of Israel, and said by the command of the Lord: The tribe of the children of Joseph hath spoken rightly.
6 Wanni Waaqayyo waaʼee intallan Zelofehaad ajaje kanaa dha: Isaan gosa abbaa isaanii qofa keessaa haa taʼu malee nama jaallatanitti haa heeruman.
And this is the law promulgated by the Lord touching the daughters of Salphaad: Let them marry to whom they will, only so that it be to men of their own tribe.
7 Sababii tokkoon tokkoon ilmaan Israaʼel dhaala gosa abbaa isaa irraa argatu jabeessee qabatuuf, dhaalli ilmaan Israaʼel gosa tokko irraa gosa kaanitti hin darbin.
Lest the possession of the children of Israel be mingled from tribe to tribe. For all men shall marry wives of their own tribe and kindred:
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 all women shall take husbands of the same tribe: that the inheritance may remain in the families,
9 Sababii tokkoon tokkoon gosa ilmaan Israaʼel dhaala ofii isaa jabeessee qabatuuf, dhaalli tokko iyyuu gosa tokko irraa gosa kaanitti hin darbin.”
And that the tribes be not mingled one with another, but remain so
10 Intallan Zelofehaad akkuma Waaqayyo Musee ajaje sana godhan.
As they were separated by the Lord. And the daughters of Salphaad did as was commanded:
11 Intallan Zelofehaad Mahilaan, Tiirzaan, Hoglaan, Miilkaa fi Nohi ilmaan obboloota abbaa isaaniitti heeruman.
And Maala, and Thersa, and Hegla, and Melcha, and Noa were married to the sons of their uncle by their father,
12 Isaanis maatiiwwan ilmaan Minaasee ilma Yoosef keessatti waan heerumaniif dhaalli isaanii gosa maatii abbaa isaanii harkatti hafe.
Of the family of Manasses, who was the son of Joseph: and the possession that had been allotted to them, remained in the tribe and 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 judgments, which the Lord commanded by the hand of Moses to the children of Israel, in the plains of Moab upon the Jordan over against Jericho.
