Numbers 27
1 Then 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 came near. These are the names of his daughters: Mahlah, Noah, Hoglah, Milcah, and Tirzah.
Vanasikana vaZerofehadhi, mwanakomana waHeferi, mwanakomana waGireadhi, mwanakomana waMakiri, mwanakomana waManase, vakanga vari vemhuri dzaManase mwanakomana waJosefa. Mazita avanasikana akanga ari: Mara, Noa, Hogira, Mirika naTiza.
2 They stood before Moses, before Eleazar the priest, and before the princes and all the congregation, at the door of the Tent of Meeting, saying,
Vakasvika pamukova weTende Rokusangana vakamira pamberi paMozisi, naEreazari muprista, vatungamiri, neungano yose, vakati,
3 “Our father died in the wilderness. He was not among the company of those who gathered themselves together against the LORD in the company of Korah, but he died in his own sin. He had no sons.
“Baba vedu vakafira murenje. Vakanga vasiri pakati pavateveri vaKora, avo vakabatana pamwe chete kuti vamukire Jehovha, asi vakafira chivi chavowo vakasasiya vanakomana.
4 Why should the name of our father be taken away from among his family, because he had no son? Give to us a possession among the brothers of our father.”
Ko, zita rababa vedu ragoshayikwa seiko pamhuri yavo, nokuti vakanga vasina mwanakomana here? Tipeiwo nhaka pakati pehama dzababa vedu.”
5 Moses brought their cause before the LORD.
Saka Mozisi akasvitsa nyaya yavo pamberi paJehovha
6 The LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
Uye Jehovha akati kwaari,
7 “The daughters of Zelophehad speak right. You shall surely give them a possession of an inheritance among their father’s brothers. You shall cause the inheritance of their father to pass to them.
“Zvinorehwa navanasikana vaZerofehadhi ndezvechokwadi. Zvirokwazvo unofanira kuvapa nhaka pakati pehama dzababa vavo ugodzorera nhaka yababa vavo kwavari.
8 You shall speak to the children of Israel, saying, ‘If a man dies, and has no son, then you shall cause his inheritance to pass to his daughter.
“Uti kuvaIsraeri, ‘Kana murume akafa akasasiya mwanakomana, munofanira kudzorera nhaka yake kumwanasikana wake.
9 If he has no daughter, then you shall give his inheritance to his brothers.
Kana asina mwanasikana, mupe nhaka yake kumadzikoma ake kana vanunʼuna vake.
10 If he has no brothers, then you shall give his inheritance to his father’s brothers.
Kana asina madzikoma kana vanunʼuna, mupe nhaka yake kuvanunʼuna kana madzikoma ababa vake.
11 If his father has no brothers, then you shall give his inheritance to his kinsman who is next to him of his family, and he shall possess it. This shall be a statute and ordinance for the children of Israel, as the LORD commanded Moses.’”
Kana baba vake vasina madzikoma kana vanunʼuna, mupe nhaka yake kuhama yepedyo yomumhuri yake, kuti ive yake. Uyu unofanira kuva mutemo kuvaIsraeri, sezvakarayirwa Mozisi naJehovha.’”
12 The LORD said to Moses, “Go up into this mountain of Abarim, and see the land which I have given to the children of Israel.
Ipapo Jehovha akati kuna Mozisi, “Kwira pamusoro pegomo iri romuAbharimi ugoona nyika yandakapa vaIsraeri.
13 When you have seen it, you also shall be gathered to your people, as Aaron your brother was gathered;
Mushure mokunge waona, newewo uchasanganiswa navanhu vokwako, sezvakaita Aroni mukoma wako,
14 because in the strife of the congregation, you rebelled against my word in the wilderness of Zin, to honor me as holy at the waters before their eyes.” (These are the waters of Meribah of Kadesh in the wilderness of Zin.)
nokuti ungano payakandimukira pamvura yomuRenje reZini, mose muri vaviri hamuna kuteerera murayiro wangu kuti mundiremekedze somutsvene pamberi pavo.” (Iyi ndiyo mvura yapaMeribha Kadheshi, muRenje reZini.)
15 Moses spoke to the LORD, saying,
Mozisi akati kuna Jehovha,
16 “Let the LORD, the God of the spirits of all flesh, appoint a man over the congregation,
“Jehovha, Mwari wemweya yamarudzi ose avanhu, ngaagadze murume pamusoro peungano iyi
17 who may go out before them, and who may come in before them, and who may lead them out, and who may bring them in, that the congregation of the LORD may not be as sheep which have no shepherd.”
kuti abude nokupinda pamberi pavo, uyo achavabudisa nokuvapinza, kuti vanhu vaJehovha varege kuva samakwai asina mufudzi.”
18 The LORD said to Moses, “Take Joshua the son of Nun, a man in whom is the Spirit, and lay your hand on him.
Saka Jehovha akati kuna Mozisi, “Tora Joshua mwanakomana waNuni, murume ano mweya maari, ugoisa ruoko rwako pamusoro pake.
19 Set him before Eleazar the priest, and before all the congregation; and commission him in their sight.
Unofanira kumumisa pamberi paEreazari muprista napamberi peungano yose ugomurayira pamberi pavo.
20 You shall give authority to him, that all the congregation of the children of Israel may obey.
Umupe rimwe simba rako kuti ungano yose yavaIsraeri igomuteerera.
21 He shall stand before Eleazar the priest, who shall inquire for him by the judgment of the Urim before the LORD. At his word they shall go out, and at his word they shall come in, both he and all the children of Israel with him, even all the congregation.”
Anofanira kumira pamberi paEreazari muprista, uyo achamubvunzira pamberi paJehovha nokutonga kweUrimi. Pakurayira kwake, vanofanira kubuda iye neungano yose yavaIsraeri uye pakurayira kwake ivo vachapinda.”
22 Moses did as the LORD commanded him. He took Joshua, and set him before Eleazar the priest and before all the congregation.
Mozisi akaita sezvaakarayirwa naJehovha. Akatora Joshua akamumisa pamberi paEreazari muprista napamberi peungano yose.
23 He laid his hands on him and commissioned him, as the LORD spoke by Moses.
Ipapo akaisa maoko ake pamusoro pake akamurayira, sezvakanga zvarayirwa Mozisi naJehovha.
