Números 27
1 E as filhas de Zelofeade, filho de Héfer, filho de Gileade, filho de Maquir, filho de Manassés, das famílias de Manassés, filho de José, os nomes das quais eram Maalá, e Noa, e Hogla, e Milca, e Tirza, chegaram;
One day the five daughters of Zelophehad came [to Moses/me]. They were Mahlah, Noah, Hoglah, Milcah, and Tirzah.
2 E apresentaram-se diante de Moisés, e diante do sacerdote Eleazar, e diante dos príncipes, e de toda a congregação, à porta do tabernáculo do testemunho, e disseram:
They came to the entrance of the Sacred Tent and stood in front of Eleazar, Moses/me, the tribal leaders, and many [EUP] other Israeli people.
3 Nosso pai morreu no deserto, o qual não esteve na junta que se reuniu contra o SENHOR na companhia de Coré: mas sim que em seu pecado morreu, e não teve filhos.
They said, “Our father died [during the time that we were] in the desert, and he did not have any sons. But he was not among those who supported Korah, who rebelled against Yahweh. He died just because he was a sinner [like everyone else].
4 Por que será tirado o nome de nosso pai dentre sua família, por não haver tido filho? Dá-nos herança entre os irmãos de nosso pai.
(Why should the name of his clan disappear [with the result that we do not receive any land] only because our father had no sons?/It is not right that the name of his clan disappear [with the result that we do not receive any land] only because our father had no sons.) [RHQ] So give us some land like our relatives will be getting!”
5 E Moisés levou sua causa diante do SENHOR.
So Moses/I asked Yahweh [what to do about] their request.
6 E o SENHOR respondeu a Moisés, dizendo:
And Yahweh replied,
7 Bem dizem as filhas de Zelofeade: hás de dar-lhes possessão de herança entre os irmãos de seu pai; e passarás a herança de seu pai a elas.
“What the daughters of Zelophehad are requesting is right. You must give them some land, just as you are giving to their father’s relatives. Give to each of them some of the land that would have been given to their brothers [if they had any].
8 E aos filhos de Israel falarás, dizendo: Quando alguém morrer sem filhos, passareis sua herança à sua filha:
“Also tell this to the Israeli people: ‘If a man who has no sons dies, give the things that his sons would have inherited to his daughters.
9 E se não tiver filha, dareis sua herança a seus irmãos:
If the man has no sons or daughters, give to his brothers the things that his sons and daughters would have inherited.
10 E se não tiver irmãos, dareis sua herança aos irmãos de seu pai.
If the man had no brothers, give to his father’s brothers the things that his sons or daughters or brothers would have inherited.
11 E se seu pai não tiver irmãos, dareis sua herança a seu parente mais próximo de sua linhagem, o qual a possuirá: e será aos filhos de Israel por estatuto de regulamento, como o SENHOR mandou a Moisés.
If the man’s father has no brothers, give to his closest relative the things that the others would have inherited.’ That will be a rule for the Israeli people, because I am giving this as a command to you, Moses, [to tell them].”
12 E o SENHOR disse a Moisés: Sobe a este monte Abarim, e verás a terra que dei aos filhos de Israel.
One day, Yahweh said to Moses/me, “Climb to the top of the Abarim Mountains [east of the Jordan River]. Then look out over the land that I am giving to the Israeli people.
13 E depois que a houverdes visto, tu também serás recolhido ao teus povo, como foi reunido o teu irmão Arão;
After you have seen it, you will die [EUP] just like your [older] brother Aaron did.
14 pois fostes rebeldes no deserto de Zim, no conflito da congregação, ao meu mandado de me santificar nas águas à vista deles. Essas são as águas do conflito de Cades no deserto de Zim.
The reason [that you will die and not enter that land] is that you both disobeyed my instructions/commands in the Zin Desert. When the Israeli people rebelled against me there at Meribah, near Kadesh, [I told you to speak to the rock to cause] water to flow out of it. [But because you struck the rock instead of speaking to it], you did not show the people my holy power.”
15 Então Moisés respondeu ao SENHOR:
Then Moses/I said this to Yahweh:
16 Que o SENHOR, Deus dos espíritos de toda carne, ponha um homem sobre a congregação,
“Yahweh, you are the God who directs the spirits of all people. So please appoint a new leader for the Israeli people.
17 que saia diante deles, que entre diante deles, que os faça sair e os faça entrar; para que a congregação do SENHOR não seja como ovelhas sem pastor.
Appoint someone who will lead your people when they go to fight a battle, so that they will not [just wander around] like sheep that do not have a shepherd.” [SIM]
18 E o SENHOR disse a Moisés: Toma a Josué filho de Num, homem no qual há espírito, e porás tua mão sobre ele;
Yahweh replied, “Get Joshua, the son of Nun, who has my Spirit within him. Lay your hands on him [to appoint him].
19 E o porás diante de Eleazar o sacerdote, e diante de toda a congregação; e lhe darás ordens em presença deles.
Cause him to stand in front of Eleazar the priest, as all the people are watching, and commission/appoint him to be the new leader of the Israeli people.
20 E porás de tua dignidade sobre ele, para que toda a congregação dos filhos de Israel lhe obedeçam.
Give to him some of the authority that you now have, in order that all the Israeli people will [know that they must] obey him.
21 E ele estará diante de Eleazar o sacerdote, e a ele perguntará pelo juízo do Urim diante do SENHOR: pelo dito dele sairão, e pelo dito dele entrarão, ele, e todos os filhos de Israel com ele, e toda a congregação.
When you all need me to guide you, Joshua will stand in front of Eleazar. Then by (casting lots/throwing marked stones on the ground) Eleazar will find out what they should do.”
22 E Moisés fez como o SENHOR lhe havia mandado; que tomou a Josué, e lhe pôs diante de Eleazar o sacerdote, e de toda a congregação:
So Moses/I did what Yahweh commanded. He/I presented Joshua to Eleazar and to all the Israeli people.
23 E pôs sobre ele suas mãos, e deu-lhe ordens, como o SENHOR havia mandado por meio de Moisés.
Moses/I laid his/my hands on him and commissioned/appointed him to do the work that Yahweh told Moses/me to tell him to do.
