1 ¶ And the princes of the fathers of the families of the sons 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 of the sons of Israel,

فَتَقَدَّمَ رُؤَساءُ عَشِيرَةِ جِلْعادَ بْنِ ماكِيرَ بْنِ مَنَسَّى، إحدَى عَشائِرِ نَسلِ يُوسُفَ، وَتَكَلَّمُوا أمامَ مُوسَى وَرُؤَساءِ قَبائِلِ بَني إسْرائِيلَ،

2 a nd they said, The LORD commanded my lord to give the land for an inheritance by lot to the sons of Israel; and my lord was also commanded by the LORD to give the inheritance of Zelophehad, our brother unto his daughters.

فَقالُوا: «أمَرَكَ اللهُ يا سَيَّدِي بِأنْ تُقَسِّمَ الأرْضَ لِبَني إسْرائِيلَ بِالقُرعَةِ. وَقَدْ أمَرَكَ اللهُ بِأنْ تُعطِي حِصَّةَ أخِينا صَلُفْحادَ لِبَناتِهِ.

3 A nd if they become married to any of the sons of the other tribes of the sons of Israel, then their inheritance shall be taken from the inheritance of our fathers and shall be put to the inheritance of the tribe unto which they are received; so shall it be taken from the lot of our inheritance.

فَإنْ تَزَوَّجنَ مِنْ رِجالٍ مِنْ إحدَى قَبائِلِ إسْرائِيلَ الأُخرَى، فَإنَّ حِصَّتَهُنَّ مِنَ الأرْضِ سَتُؤخَذُ مِنْ حِصَّةِ آبائِنا وَعَشِيرَتِنا وَتُضافُ إلَى حِصَّةِ القَبِيلَةِ الَّتِي تَزَوَّجْنَ مِنْها. وَبِهَذا سَيَحدُثُ نَقصٌ فِي حِصَّتِنا الَّتِي حَصَلْنا عَلَيها بِالقُرعَةِ.

4 A nd when the jubilee of the sons of Israel shall come, then shall their inheritance be put unto the inheritance of the tribe unto which they are received; so shall their inheritance be taken away from the inheritance of the tribe of our fathers.

فَحِينَ تَأتِي سَنَةُ اليُوبِيلِ لِبَني إسْرائِيلَ، سَيَتِمُّ إضافَةُ حِصَّتِهِنَّ إلَى حِصَّةِ القَبِيلَةِ الَّتِي تَزَوَّجنَ مِنْها، وَسَتُؤْخَذُ حِصَّتُهُنَّ مِنْ حِصَّةِ عَشِيرَةِ آبائِنا.»

5 ¶ Then Moses commanded the sons of Israel according to the word of the LORD, saying, The tribe of the sons of Joseph has spoken well.

فَأعطَى مُوسَى هَذا الأمرَ لِبَني إسْرائِيلَ بِحَسَبِ ما قالَهُ اللهُ لَهُ: «ما تَقُولُهُ عَشِيرَةُ نَسلِ يُوسُفَ صَحيحٌ وَحَقٌّ.

6 T his is the thing which the LORD commands concerning the daughters of Zelophehad, saying, Let them marry as they desire; but they shall marry only within the family of the tribe of their father

وَلِذا فَهَذا ما يَأْمُرُ اللهُ بِهِ بِشَأنِ بَناتِ صَلُفْحادَ: يَمكِنُهُنَّ أنْ يَتَزَوَّجنَ مِمَّنْ يُرِدْنَ، لَكِنْ يَنْبَغِي أنْ يَتَزَوَّجنَ مِنْ رِجالٍ مِنْ عَشِيرَةِ أبِيهِنَّ.

7 s o that the inheritance of the sons of Israel shall not be passed from tribe to tribe; for each one of the sons of Israel shall cleave to the inheritance of the tribe of his fathers.

فَلا يُمكِنُ نَقلُ حِصَّةٍ فِي أرْضِ بَنِي إسْرائِيلَ مِنْ عَشِيرَةٍ إلَى أُخْرَى، بَلْ يَنبَغِي عَلَى بَنِي إسْرائِيلَ أنْ يُحافِظُوا عَلَى حِصَّةِ عَشِيرَةِ آبائِهِمْ.

8 A nd any daughter, that possesses an inheritance in any tribe of the sons of Israel, shall marry one of the family of the tribe of her father so that each man of the sons of Israel may possess the inheritance of his fathers.

عَلَى كُلِّ بِنتٍ فِي قَبائِلِ بَني إسْرائِيلَ تَرِثُ حِصَّةً مِنَ الأرْضِ أنْ تَتَزَوَّجَ مِنْ رَجُلٍ مِنْ عَشِيرَةِ أبِيها كَي يَرِثَ كُلُّ واحِدٍ مِنْ بَني إسْرائِيلَ حِصَّةَ الأرْضِ الَّتِي لآبائِهِ.

9 S o that the inheritance shall not change from one tribe to another tribe, each one of the tribes of the sons of Israel shall cleave to his own inheritance.

لا يَجُوزُ نَقلُ حِصَّةٍ مِنَ الأرْضِ مِنْ عَشِيرَةٍ إلَى أُخْرَى، لأنَّهُ عَلَى كُلِّ عَشِيرَةٍ فِي بَني إسْرائِيلَ أنْ تُحافِظَ عَلَى حِصَّتِها مِنَ الأرْضِ.»

10 A s the LORD commanded Moses, so did the daughters of Zelophehad.

فَعَمِلَتْ بَناتُ صَلُفْحادَ حَسَبَ ما أمَرَ اللهُ مُوسَى بِهِ.

11 A nd thus Mahlah, Tirzah, Hoglah, Milcah and Noah, the daughters of Zelophehad, married the sons of their uncles.

فَتَزَوَّجَتْ مَحلَةُ وَتِرْصَةُ وَحَجلَةُ وَمِلْكَةُ وَنُوعَةُ، بَناتُ صَلُفْحادَ، مِنْ أبناءِ عُمُومَتِهِنَّ.

12 T hey were women of the family of the sons of Manasseh, the son of Joseph, and their inheritance remained in the tribe of the family of their father.

فَتَزَوَّجنَ مِنْ رِجالٍ مِنْ عَشائِرِ مَنَسَّى بنِ يُوسُفَ، فَبَقِيَتْ حِصّتُهُنَّ مِنَ الأرْضِ فِي عَشِيرَةِ أبِيهِنَّ.

13 T hese are the commandments and the rights which the LORD commanded by the hand of Moses unto the sons of Israel in the plains of Moab by the Jordan of Jericho.

هَذِهِ هِيَ الوَصايا وَالقَواعِدُ الَّتِي أمَرَ اللهُ بِها بَني إسْرائِيلَ عَنْ طَريقِ مُوسَى فِي سُهُولِ مُوَآبَ قُرْبَ نَهرِ الأُردُنِّ إلَى الشَّرقِ مِنْ أرِيحا.
