1وتقدم رؤوس الآباء من عشيرة بني جلعاد بن ماكير بن منسّى من عشائر بني يوسف وتكلموا قدام موسى وقدام الرؤساء رؤوس الآباء من بني اسرائيل
1The heads of the fathers’ households of the family of the children 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 princes, the heads of the fathers’ households of the children of Israel:
2وقالوا. قد أمر الرب سيدي ان يعطي الارض بقسمة بالقرعة لبني اسرائيل. وقد أمر سيدي من الرب ان يعطي نصيب صلفحاد اخينا لبناته.
2and they said, “Yahweh commanded my lord to give the land for inheritance by lot to the children of Israel: and my lord was commanded by Yahweh to give the inheritance of Zelophehad our brother to his daughters.
3فان صرن نساء لاحد من بني اسباط بني اسرائيل يؤخذ نصيبهنّ من نصيب آبائنا ويضاف الى نصيب السبط الذي صرن له. فمن قرعة نصيبنا يؤخذ.
3If they are married to any of the sons of the other tribes of the children of Israel, then will their inheritance be taken away from the inheritance of our fathers, and will be added to the inheritance of the tribe whereunto they shall belong: so will it be taken away from the lot of our inheritance.
4ومتى كان اليوبيل لبني اسرائيل يضاف نصيبهنّ الى نصيب السبط الذي صرن له ومن نصيب سبط آبائنا يؤخذ نصيبهنّ
4When the jubilee of the children of Israel shall be, then will their inheritance be added to the inheritance of the tribe whereunto they shall belong: so will their inheritance be taken away from the inheritance of the tribe of our fathers.”
5فامر موسى بني اسرائيل حسب قول الرب قائلا. بحق تكلم سبط بني يوسف.
5Moses commanded the children of Israel according to the word of Yahweh, saying, “The tribe of the sons of Joseph speaks right.
6هذا ما امر به الرب عن بنات صلفحاد قائلا. من حسن في اعينهنّ يكنّ له نساء ولكن لعشيرة سبط آبائهنّ يكنّ نساء.
6This is the thing which Yahweh does command 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.
7فلا يتحول نصيب لبني اسرائيل من سبط الى سبط بل يلازم بنو اسرائيل كل واحد نصيب سبط آبائه.
7So shall no inheritance of the children of Israel remove from tribe to tribe; for the children of Israel shall all keep the inheritance of the tribe of his fathers.
8وكل بنت ورثت نصيبا من اسباط بني اسرائيل تكون امرأة لواحد من عشيرة سبط ابيها لكي يرث بنو اسرائيل كل واحد نصيب آبائه.
8Every daughter who possesses an inheritance in any tribe of the children of Israel shall be wife to one of the family of the tribe of her father, that the children of Israel may possess every man the inheritance of his fathers.
9فلا يتحول نصيب من سبط الى سبط آخر بل يلازم اسباط بني اسرائيل كل واحد نصيبه
9So shall no inheritance remove from one tribe to another tribe; for the tribes of the children of Israel shall each keep his own inheritance.”
10كما أمر الرب موسى كذلك فعلت بنات صلفحاد.
10The daughters of Zelophehad did as Yahweh commanded Moses:
11فصارت محلة وترصة وحجلة وملكة ونوعة بنات صلفحاد نساء لبني اعمامهنّ.
11for Mahlah, Tirzah, and Hoglah, and Milcah, and Noah, the daughters of Zelophehad, were married to their father’s brothers’ sons.
12صرن نساء من عشائر بني منسّى بن يوسف فبقي نصيبهنّ في سبط عشيرة ابيهنّ
12They 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.
13هذه هي الوصايا والاحكام التي اوصى بها الرب الى بني اسرائيل عن يد موسى في عربات موآب على اردن اريحا
13These are the commandments and the ordinances which Yahweh commanded by Moses to the children of Israel in the plains of Moab by the Jordan at Jericho.
