THEN came the daughters of Zelophehad, the son of Hepher, the son of Gilead, the son of Machir, the son of Manasseh, of the families of Manasseh the son of Joseph: and these are the names of his daughters; Mahlah, Noah, and Hoglah, and Milcah, and Tirzah.

2 Chuin amaho chu Mose masang, Eleazer thempu masang, chuleh Japi lamkai ho masanga houbuh leitol ah ading un ahi.

And they stood before Moses, and before Eleazar the priest, and before the princes and all the congregation, by the door of the tabernacle of the congregation, saying,

3 Kapu teuchu gamthip lah a ahinkhou ana beitan, Korah mite lah a khat pen chu ana hi pon amachu mi holah a Pathen lungdei lou bol ho khat chu ahin amavang ama chonset jal'a ahinkho beija ahitai chule chapa neilou ahiye.

Our father died in the wilderness, and he was not in the company of them that gathered themselves together against the Lord in the company of Korah; but died in his own sin, and had no sons.

4 Epijeh a kapateu min chu aphung sung uva kon mang jeng ding ham chapa aneilou jeh mei a? Chanvou neilegou ka insung mite dang ho a tabong neipiu vin ati.

Why should the name of our father be done away from among his family, because he hath no son? Give unto us therefore a possession among the brethren of our father.

5 Hichun Mose’n amaho thule la boina chu Pathen masanga apolut tan ahi.

And Moses brought their cause before the Lord.

6 Chuin PakaiyinMose hitin ahin donbut in ahi.

And the Lord spake unto Moses, saying,

7 Zelophehad chanute kiphin ahi ding mong tah ahiye. Mose nangman amaho neile gou apaho sopite ho lah a ding’a hin napeh tei angaiye chule apate ho chan vou ding u chu na peh teidiu ahi, ati.

The daughters of Zelophehad speak right: thou shalt surely give them a possession of an inheritance among their father’s brethren; and thou shalt cause the inheritance of their father to pass unto them.

8 Israel mite chu sei pih tan, pasal khat chu ahinkho abeiya chule chapa neilouva aum tah a ahile anei le agou jouse chu achanute chang ding ahi.

And thou shalt speak unto the children of Israel, saying, If a man die, and have no son, then ye shall cause his inheritance to pass unto his daughter.

9 Amapa chun chanu anei tah hih le anei le agou hou chu asopite na peh ding ahi tai.

And if he have no daughter, then ye shall give his inheritance unto his brethren.

10 Israel mikhat chu athi tah a sopi aneitah lou leh achan vou aneile agou chu apa sopite ho napeh ding ahiye.

And if he have no brethren, then ye shall give his inheritance unto his father’s brethren.

11 Israel mipa chu apateho asopiteho aum tah louleh aphung sunga akinai pipen chu napeh ding ahi.

And if his father have no brethren, then ye shall give his inheritance unto his kinsman that is next to him of his family, and he shall possess it: and it shall be unto the children of Israel a statute of judgment, as the Lord commanded Moses.

12 Nikhat Pathen in Mose komah asei in, “Nisolam vadung kom a molchung khat pen ah kel tou inlang chule keiman Israel te kapeh nading gamsung khu gah vetem in ati.

And the Lord said unto Moses, Get thee up into this mount Abarim, and see the land which I have given unto the children of Israel.

13 Nangma in natahsa tah a namu teng nangma jong nasoopipa Aaron bonga nathi ding ahitai,

And when thou hast seen it, thou also shalt be gathered unto thy people, as Aaron thy brother was gathered.

14 Ajeh chu mipite ho gamthip lah Zin’a akiphin laitah un keiman kathendol amaho kom a twichungah phongjel lhonin kati chu nangnin keima doumah joh in nachon lhon tan ahi. (Hichehi Kadesh kiti Zin gammang a Meribah twi chu ahi).

For ye rebelled against my commandment in the desert of Zin, in the strife of the congregation, to sanctify me at the water before their eyes: that is the water of Meribah in Kadesh in the wilderness of Zin.

15 Chuin Mose’n Pakai henga hiti hin aseijin ahi.

And Moses spake unto the Lord, saying,

16 Pakaiyin vannoiya lhangho jouse mi jouse pasal jouse chunga vaihom ding lheng doh tahen, ati.

Let the Lord, the God of the spirits of all flesh, set a man over the congregation,

17 Amaho lah a konna hungpot doh ding amaho lah a gamsung lutthei hiding koitabang amaho lah a konna hin puidoh theiya hin nung lhunsah kit thei hiding Pathen mipi te, hijeh achu kelngoi aching umlou bang nga a umlou nadiu ahi.

Which may go out before them, and which may go in before them, and which may lead them out, and which may bring them in; that the congregation of the Lord be not as sheep which have no shepherd.

18 Chu in PakaiyinMose aki houlimpi tan Joshua kiti Nun chapa lhagao neisa pahi nangman heng a kou inlang achungah nakhut ngam in atie.

And the Lord said unto Moses, Take thee Joshua the son of Nun, a man in whom is the spirit, and lay thine hand upon him;

19 Eleazer thempu pa leh mipi jouse masangah dinsah inlang chuleh mipi jouse het in amachu mipite puihoi din thupeh nei in.

And set him before Eleazar the priest, and before all the congregation; and give him a charge in their sight.

20 Chule Joshua chu nangman thanei nachu napeh ding hiche jeh achu Israel mipi te lah a thuneina anei thei nading ahi.

And thou shalt put some of thine honour upon him, that all the congregation of the children of Israel may be obedient.

21 Eleazer thempu pa masang a ding ding chule Pathen lam gel doh jing a aum na laiya Urim thutanna umna ahin, amapa thupeh dungjuiya potdoh diu chule amapa thuneina a hung sung lha diu Joshua le Israel mipi jouse umkhom diu ahi.

And he shall stand before Eleazar the priest, who shall ask counsel for him after the judgment of Urim before the Lord: at his word shall they go out, and at his word they shall come in, both he, and all the children of Israel with him, even all the congregation.

22 Hichun Mose’n jong Pathen thupeh dungjui in abollin hichun Mose’n Joshua chu Eleazer thempu pa masang leh Israel mipite masangah adinsah tan ahi.

And Moses did as the Lord commanded him: and he took Joshua, and set him before Eleazar the priest, and before all the congregation:

23 Chule Mose’n akhut chu Joshua chunga angam in phatthei abohtan Pathen nin aphatsah a thu apeh bangtah in aboltan ahi.

And he laid his hands upon him, and gave him a charge, as the Lord commanded by the hand of Moses.
