1 Pea ko e kau mātuʻa ko e tamai ʻae ngaahi faʻahinga ʻoe fānau ʻa Kiliati ko e foha ʻo Mekili ko e foha ia ʻo Manase, ʻoe ngaahi faʻahinga ʻoe fānau ʻa Siosefa, naʻa nau ʻunuʻunu mai ʻonau lea ʻi he ʻao ʻo Mōsese, mo e ʻao ʻoe houʻeiki, ko e kau mātuʻa tuʻukimuʻa ʻi he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli:
那時若瑟後裔的家族中,有默納協的子孫,瑪基爾的兒子基肋阿得子孫的家族首領,來到梅瑟和叵子民各家族的首領前說:
2 Pea naʻa nau pehē, “Naʻe fekau ʻe Sihova ki heʻeku ʻeiki ke foaki ʻae fonua ʻi he talotalo, ko e tofiʻa ki he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli: pea naʻe fekau ʻe Sihova ki heʻeku ʻeiki ke foaki ʻae tofiʻa ʻo Silofitati ko homau tokoua ki hono ngaahi ʻofefine.
「上主吩咐我主,以抽籤來分給以色列子民土地為產業,我主又領了木的保,將我們兄弟責羅斐哈得的產業,分給他的女兒們。
3 Pea kapau tenau mali mo e niʻihi ʻi he ngaahi foha ʻoe ngaahi faʻahinga ʻoe fānau ʻa ʻIsileli, ʻe toki tō ai honau tofiʻa mei he tofiʻa ʻo ʻemau ngaahi tamai, pea ʻe tuku ia ki he tofiʻa ʻoe faʻahinga ʻaia kuo nau ʻalu ki ai: pea ʻe mole pehē ia mei he talotalo ʻo homau tofiʻa.
現在,如果她們嫁給了以色列子民另一支派的人,她們的產業就脫離了我們祖先的產業,而加在所嫁給的那一支派的產業上:這樣,我們抽籤分得的產業就減少了。
4 Pea ʻoka hoko ʻae siupeli ʻoe fānau ʻa ʻIsileli, ʻe lau ai honau tofiʻa ki he tofiʻa ʻoe faʻahinga ʻaia kuo nau maʻu ʻakinautolu: pea ʻe mole pehē ʻa honau tofiʻa mei he tofiʻa ʻoe faʻahinga ʻo ʻemau ngaahi tamai.”
甚至一到以色列子民的喜年,她們的產業仍舊加在所嫁的那一支派的產業內,我們祖先支派的產業就減少了她們那一份」。
5 Pea naʻe fekau ʻe Mōsese ki he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli ʻo fakatatau ki he folofola ʻa Sihova, ʻo ne pehē, “Kuo lea totonu ʻae faʻahinga ʻoe ngaahi foha ʻo Siosefa.
梅瑟依上主的指示訓令以色列子民說:「若瑟子孫支派說的有理。
6 Ko e meʻa eni kuo fekau ʻe Sihova koeʻuhi ko e ngaahi ʻofefine ʻo Silofitati, ʻo pehē, Tuku ʻakinautolu kenau fakamaʻu mo kinautolu ʻoku nau manako ki ai; ka tenau fakamaʻu ʻi he fānau ʻoe faʻahinga pe ʻo ʻenau ngaahi tamai.
上主對於責羅斐哈得的女兒們這樣這樣吩咐說:她們可任意嫁給自己所喜愛的人,但只應嫁給屬於自己祖先支派的人。
7 Pea ko ia ʻe ʻikai hiki ai ʻae tofiʻa ʻoe fānau ʻa ʻIsileli mei ha faʻahinga ki ha faʻahinga: ka tenau taki taha pikitai ki he tofiʻa ʻoe faʻahinga ʻo ʻene ngaahi tamai.
以色列子民的產業不可由一支派轉移至另一支派,因為以色列子民每人應固守自己祖先支派的產業。
8 Pea ko e ʻofefine kotoa pē, ʻoku ne maʻu ha tofiʻa ʻi ha faʻahinga ʻoe fānau ʻa ʻIsileli, ʻe hoko ia ko e uaifi ʻo ha tokotaha ʻi he fānau ʻoe faʻahinga ʻo ʻene tamai, koeʻuhi ke maʻu ʻe he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli ʻe he tangata taki taha ʻae tofiʻa ʻo ʻene ngaahi tamai.
以色列子民支派中,凡繼承產業的子女,應嫁給她祖先支派的人為妻,好使每個以色列子民能固守祖先的產業。
9 Kaeʻoua ʻe hiki ʻae tofiʻa mei ha faʻahinga ʻe taha ki ha faʻahinga kehe; kae taki taha pikitai ʻae faʻahinga ʻoe fānau ʻa ʻIsileli ki hono tofiʻa ʻoʻona.”
這樣產業就不會由一支派轉移至另一支派,因為以色列子民各支派應固守自己的產業」。
10 ‌ʻO hangē ko ia naʻe fekau ʻe Sihova kia Mōsese, naʻe fai pehē ʻae ngaahi ʻofefine ʻo Silofitati:
上主怎樣吩咐了梅瑟,責羅斐哈得的女兒們就怎樣做了。
11 He naʻe fakamaʻu ʻa Mala, mo Tilisa, mo Hokila, mo Milika, mo Noa, ko e ngaahi ʻofefine ʻo Silofitati, mo e ngaahi foha ʻoe tokoua ʻo ʻenau tamai.
責羅斐哈得的女兒:瑪赫拉、提爾匝、曷米革拉、米耳加和諾阿,嫁給了自己叔伯的兒子們,
12 Pea naʻa nau fakamaʻu ki he ngaahi fānau ʻoe ngaahi foha ʻo Manase ko e foha ʻo Siosefa, pea naʻe maʻu honau tofiʻa ʻi he faʻahinga ʻoe fānau ʻo ʻenau tamai.
即嫁給了若瑟的兒子默納協子孫家族的人:如此她們的產業仍留在她們祖先家族的支派內。
13 Ko e ngaahi fekau eni mo e ngaahi fono, ʻaia naʻe fekau ʻe Sihova ʻi he nima ʻo Mōsese ki he fanau ʻa ʻIsileli ʻi he ngaahi potu tafangafanga ʻo Moape ʻoku ofi ki Soatani, pea ofi ki Seliko.
這是上主在耶利哥對面,約旦河邊,摩阿布曠野內,藉梅瑟向以色列子民所頒佈的誡命和規則。
