< 4 Mose 36 >
1 Afei, Gilead abusua no ntuanofoɔ, Makir a ɔyɛ Manase babarima ne Yosef nana asefoɔ kɔɔ Mose ne Israel ntuanofoɔ nkyɛn de adesrɛdeɛ kɔtoo wɔn anim.
Inhloko zezindlu zosendo lukaGiliyadi indodana kaMakhiri, indodana kaManase, ababengabensendo zezizukulwane zikaJosefa, beza bakhuluma loMosi kanye labakhokheli, abazinhloko zezimuli zako-Israyeli.
2 Wɔkaa sɛ, “Awurade ka kyerɛɛ wo sɛ bɔ ntonto kronkron na gyina so kyekyɛ asase no ma Israelfoɔ. Awurade ka kyerɛɛ wo sɛ fa yɛn nuabarima Selofehad agyapadeɛ ma ne mmammaa.
Bathi kubo, “Lapho uThixo walaya inkosi yami ukuba iphe ilizwe njengelifa ngenkatho kwabako-Israyeli, yakhupha isiqondiso sokuthi uphe ilifa lomfowethu uZelofehadi kumadodakazi akhe.
3 Na sɛ ɛba sɛ wɔn mu bi kɔware wɔ abusua foforɔ mu a, ɔde asase a wɔde ama no no bɛkɔ awadeɛ. Sɛ ɛba saa a, yɛn abusua no asase kɛseɛ so bɛte.
Khathesi akesithi thina nxa bendele emadodeni ezinye izizwana zako-Israyeli; kuzakutsho ukuthi ilifa lizasuswa kwelabokhokho bethu liyekwengezelela elalesosizwana abazakwendela kuso. Ngakho kutsho ukuthi ingxenye yelifa esaliphiwayo sizayithathelwa.
4 Sɛ Mfirinhyia Aduonum Afahyɛ no duru so a, saa agyapadeɛ no bɛka hɔ ara. Na ɛbɛfiri abusuakuo a anka ɛwɔ no no nsam koraa.”
Kuzakuthi ngomnyaka weJubhili kwabako-Israyeli, ilifa labo lizakwengezelela elalesosizwana abendele kuso, njalo impahla yabo izasuswa elifeni lesizwana sabokhokho bethu.”
5 Enti Mose de saa ɔhyɛ nsɛm a ɛfiri Awurade yi maa Israelfoɔ no: “Yosef abusuakuo mu nnipa no asɛm no yɛ nokorɛ.
Ngakho ngokulaya kukaThixo uMosi wakhipha lesisiqondiso kwabako-Israyeli: “Lokho okutshiwo yisizukulwane sesizwana sikaJosefa kuqondile.
6 Awurade ɔhyɛ nsɛm a ɛfa Selofehad mmammaa no ho no nie: wɔtumi ware ɔbarima biara a wɔpɛ a ɔfiri wɔn agya abusuakuo mu.
Lokhu yikho ukulaya kukaThixo ngamadodakazi kaZelofehadi: Bakhululekile ukwendela loba kukubani obathathayo kodwa akube ngabosendo lwesizwana sikayise.
7 Ɛnsɛ sɛ agyapadeɛ biara firi abusuakuo bi nsam kɔ abusuakuo foforɔ nsam, ɛfiri sɛ, ɛsɛ sɛ abusuakuo biara agyapadeɛ tena hɔ sɛdeɛ ɛteɛ firi kane no.
Kalikho ilifa ko-Israyeli elizasuka esizwaneni lisiya kwesinye isizwana, ngoba wonke owako-Israyeli kumele agcine ilizwe lesizwana eliyilifa labokhokho bakhe.
8 Mmammaa a wɔwɔ Israel mmusuakuo mu nyinaa a agyapadeɛ tumi kɔ wɔn nsam no, ɛsɛ sɛ wɔwareware wɔ wɔn mmusuakuo mu na wɔn agyapadeɛ amfiri wɔn abusuakuo mu.
Yonke indodakazi ezakuba yindlalifa yelizwe esizwaneni sako-Israyeli kumele yendele emuntwini wesizwana sosendo lukayise, ukuze wonke owako-Israyeli abe lelifa laboyise.
9 Ɛnsɛ sɛ agyapadeɛ biara firi abusuakuo bi nsam kɔdi ɔfoforɔ nsam, ɛsɛ sɛ Israel abusuakuo biara bɔ nʼagyapadeɛ ho ban.”
Kalikho ilifa elizasuka esizwaneni lisiya kwesinye isizwana, ngoba loba yisiphi isizwana sako-Israyeli kumele sigcine ilizwe eliyilifa laso.”
10 Selofehad mmammaa no yɛɛ sɛdeɛ Awurade hyɛɛ Mose no.
Ngakho amadodakazi kaZelofehadi enza njengokulaywa kukaMosi nguThixo.
11 Mahla, Tirsa, Hogla, Milka ne Noa nyinaa warewaree wɔn agyanom nuammarima mma.
Amadodakazi kaZelofehadi uMahila, loThiza, loHogila, loMilikha kanye loNowa, bendela emadodaneni abafowabo bakayise.
12 Wɔwarewaree wɔ Yosef babarima Manase mmusua mu enti wɔn agyapadeɛ no kaa wɔn abusuakuo mu.
Bendela kwabezinsendo zezizukulwane zikaManase indodana kaJosefa, njalo ilifa labo lasala kwabosendo lukayise lesizwaneni sakhe.
13 Yei ne mmara ne nhyehyɛeɛ a Awurade nam Mose so de maa Israelfoɔ ɛberɛ a wɔbɔɔ atenaeɛ wɔ Moab tata so so, wɔ Asubɔnten Yordan a ɛne Yeriko di nhwɛanimu no ho.
Le yiyo imilayo lemithetho eyaphiwa abako-Israyeli nguThixo ngoMosi emagcekeni aseMowabi ngasemfuleni waseJodani ngakuleli iphetsheya malungana leJerikho.
