Minbu 36

1 Joseph chate lah a phungkhat Manasseh chapa, Machir chapa, Gilead chate lah a ama insung cheh akon upa khat cheh ahung kipe lut paitauvin, Mose ahin lamkai dang chule Israel chate sung’a upa cheng komma ahung sei un ahi.

And the heads of the tribe of the sons of Galaad the son of Machir the son of Manasse, of the tribe of the sons of Joseph, drew near, and spoke before Moses, and before Eleazar the priest, and before the heads of the houses of the families of the children of Israel:

2 Amahon hiti hin asei uve, Kapu heng’a Pathen in, hiche gamsung hi Israel chate alo diu chanvou a kihop teng u-leh; ka sopi’u Zelophehad chanu teho jong peh ding in ana sei jin ahi.

and they said, The Lord commanded our lord to render the land of inheritance by lot to the children of Israel; and the Lord appointed our lord to give the inheritance of Salpaad our brother to his daughters.

3 Amavang chanute hin Israel chate sung’a konna phung dang pasal hon kichen pi khah taleu, hiche apa uva konna goulo na’u gamsung pumpi hi kila mang jeng ding, ajinei na’u phungho toh chun agamsung hi ki gom ding, chu teng keiho goulo ding gamsung akon phabep kiladoh ding ahi tai.

And they will become wives in one of the tribes of the children of Israel; so their inheritance shall be taken away from the possession of our fathers, and shall be added to the inheritance of the tribe into which the women shall marry, and shall be taken away from the portion of our inheritance.

4 Chule Israel chate Jubilee chu hung lhung jeng ta jong leh, aji neina teho'u-toh'a chanute ho’u goulo na gam chu kigom ta ding, chu teng amaho goulo kiti phot chu kapu kapa teho’u akonna ki ladoh jeng ding ahi tai.

And if there shall be a release of the children of Israel, then shall their inheritance be added to the inheritance of the tribe into which the women marry, and their inheritance, shall be taken away from the inheritance of our family's tribe.

5 Chuin Mose’n jong Pakai, Pathen kamcheng akon Israel chate jah a thu apetan,

And Moses charged the children of Israel by the commandment of the Lord, saying, Thus says the tribe of the children of Joseph.

6 Zelophehad chanute chung chang a Pakai, Pathen thuseidoh chu hiche hi ahiye, Amaho hin adei deiyu akichenpi jeng theiyu ahi, ahinlah hiche akichen pidiu chu apa’u phung sung’a kon hi cheh ding ahi.

This [is] the thing which the Lord has appointed the daughters of Salpaad, saying, Let them marry where they please, only let them marry [men] of their father's tribe.

7 Ajeh chu Israel chate akonna goulo hohi

So shall not the inheritance of the children of Israel go about from tribe to tribe, for the children of Israel shall steadfastly continue each in the inheritance of his family's tribe.

8 Hijeh achu Israel chanute akonna apa goulo chanvou chang hon apa phung sunga konna mi khat a kichenpi teitei ding, hitia chu Israel chate hon apu, apa te khang uva pat a-goulo chengse’u chu Amaho jeng in achenpi jing diu ahi.

And whatever daughter is heiress to a property of the tribes of the children Israel, [such] women shall be married each to one of her father's tribe, that the sons of Israel may each inherit the property of his father's tribe.

9 Goulo gamsung hi phungkhat akonna phung dang a ki chonlut thei louhel ding, ajeh chu Israel chaten ama ama chenna gamsung cheh chu kituptah a akiven kol cehh ding ahi, tia thu napeh ding ahiye.

And the inheritance shall not go about from one tribe to another, but the children of Israel shall steadfastly continue each in his own inheritance.

10 Zelophehad chanute sen jong Pakai, Pathen thupeh bang bang in abolsoh kei tauvin ahi.

As the Lord commanded Moses, so did they to the daughters of Salpaad.

11 Mahlah, Tirzah, Hoglah, Milcah, Noah, Zelophehad chanute abonchauvin apa sopi pasal hotoh aki cheng tauve.

So Thersa, and Egla, and Melcha, and Nua, and Malaa, the daughters of Salpaad, married their cousins;

12 Amaho chu Joseph chapa Manasseh chate phungsung jeng ngah ajinei taovin, agoulo gam sung’u abonchan apau phung sung ah aum jing tan ahi.

they were married [to men] of the tribe of Manasse of the sons of Joseph; and their inheritance was attached to the tribe of their father's family.

13 Dan thupeh hohi Moab phaicham, Jordan vadung pang Jericho khopia Pakai, Pathen in Israel chate chonna dan dinga Mose henga thupeh ana nei hochu ahi.

These [are] the commandments, and the ordinances, and the judgements, which the Lord commanded by the hand of Moses, at the west of Moab, at Jordan by Jericho.
