Numbers 27
1 Then came near the daughters of Zelophehad, son of Hepher, son of Gilead son of Machir son of Manasseh pertaining to the families of Manasseh, son of Joseph, —these being the names of his daughters, Mahlah Noah and Hoglah and Milcah, and Tirzah.
茲にヨセフの子マナセの族の中なるヘペルの子ゼロペハデの女子等きたれりヘペルはギレアデの子ギレアデはマキルの子マキルはマナセの子なりその女子等の名はマアラ、ノア、ホグラ、ミルカ、テルザといふ
2 So they stood before Moses and before Eleazar the priest, and before the princes, and all the assembly, —at the entrance of the tent of meeting, saying:
彼ら集會の幕屋の門にてモーセと祭司エレアザルと牧伯等と全會衆の前に立ち言けるは
3 Our father, died in the desert, although, he, was not among the assembly that conspired against Yahweh, in the assembly of Korah, —but, in his own sin, died he; and sons, had he none.
我等の父は曠野に死り彼はかのコラに與して集りてヱホバに逆ひし者等の中に加はらず自己の罪に死り然るに男子なし
4 Wherefore should the name of our father be withdrawn out of the midst of his family, because he had no son? Give ye unto us a possession, in the midst of the brethren of our father.
我らの父の名なんぞその男子あらざるがためにその族の中より削らるることある可んや我らの父の兄弟の中において我らにも產業を與へよと
5 And Moses brought near their cause before Yahweh.
モーセすなはちその事をヱホバの前に陳けるに
6 Then spake Yahweh unto Moses, saying:
ヱホバ、モーセに告て言たまはく
7 A right thing, are the daughters of Zelophehad speaking: Thou shalt, surely give, them a possession for an inheritance, in the midst of the brethren of their father, —and shalt cause the inheritance of their father to pass over unto them.
ゼロペハデの女子等の言ところは道理なり汝かならず彼らの父の兄弟の中において彼らに產業を與へて獲さすべし即ちその父の產業をこれに歸せしむべし
8 And unto the sons of Israel, shalt thou speak, saying, —When, any man, shall die, having no son, then shall ye cause his inheritance to pass over to his daughter.
汝イスラエルの子孫に告て言べし人もし男子なくして死ばその產業をこれが女子に歸せしむべし
9 And, if he hath no daughter, then shall ye give his inheritance unto his, brethren.
もしまた女子もあらざる時はその產業をその兄弟に與ふべし
10 And if he hath no brethren, then shall ye give his inheritance unto the brethren of his father.
もし兄弟あらざる時はその產業をその父の兄弟に與ふべし
11 And, if his father hath no brethren, then shall ye give his inheritance unto his blood-relation that is near unto him of his family, and he shall possess it, —So shall it serve the sons of Israel as a regulative statute, As Yahweh commanded Moses.
もしまたその父に兄弟あらざる時はその親戚の最も近き者にその產業を與へて獲さすべしヱホバのモーセに命ぜしごとくイスラエルの子孫は永く之をもて律法の例とすべし
12 And Yahweh said unto Moses, Go up into this mount of Abarim, —and see, the land which I have given unto the sons of Israel;
茲にヱホバ、モーセに言たまはく汝このアバリム山にのぼり我イスラエルの子孫に與へし地を觀よ
13 And, when thou hast seen it, then shalt thou also be withdrawn unto thy kinsfolk, —as Aaron thy brother was withdrawn;
汝これを觀なばアロンの旣に加はりしごとく汝もその民に加はるべし
14 because ye resisted my bidding—in the desert of Zin when the assembly contended, —that ye should hallow me regarding the waters, before their eyes, —the same, were the waters of Meribah, of Kadesh in the desert of Zin.
是チンの曠野において會衆の爭論をなせる砌に汝らわが命に悸りかの水の側にて我の聖き事をかれらの目のまへに顯すことを爲ざりしが故なり是すなはちチンの曠野のカデシにあるメリバの水なり
15 Then spake Moses unto Yahweh saying:
モーセ、ヱホバに申して言けるは
16 Let Yahweh, God of the spirits of all flesh, appoint a man over the assembly;
ヱホバ一切の血肉ある者の生命の神よ願くはこの會衆の上に一人を立て
17 who may go out before them and who may come in before them, and who may take them out and who may bring them in, —that the assembly of Yahweh become not as sheep that have no shepherd.
之をして彼等の前に出かれらの前に入り彼らを導き出し彼らを導き入る者とならしめヱホバの會衆をして牧者なき羊のごとくならざらしめたまへ
18 And Yahweh said unto Moses: Take thee Joshua son of Nun, a man in whom is spirit, —then shalt thou lean thy hand upon him;
ヱホバ、モーセに言たまはくヌンの子ヨシユアといふ霊のやどれる人を取り汝の手をその上に按き
19 and shalt cause him to stand before Eleazar the priest, and before all the assembly, —and shalt charge him before their eyes;
これを祭司エレアザルと全會衆の前に立せて彼らの前にて之に命ずる事をなすべし
20 and shalt put some of thine honour upon him, —that all the assembly of the sons of Israel may hearken.
汝これに自己の尊榮を分ち與ヘイスラエルの子孫の全會衆をしてこれに順がはしむべし
21 And, before Eleazar the priest, shall he stand, and shall ask by him for the decision of the Lights, before Yahweh, —at the bidding thereof, shall they go out, and at the bidding thereof, shall they come in—he, and all the sons of Israel with him, even all the assembly.
彼は祭司エレアザルの前に立べしエレアザルはウリムをもて彼のためにヱホバの前に問ことを爲べしヨシユアとイスラエルの子孫すなはちその全會衆はエレアザルの言にしたがひて出でエレアザルの言にしたがひて入べし
22 And Moses did as Yahweh commanded him, —and took Joshua, and caused him to stand before Eleazar the priest, and before all the assembly;
是においてモーセはヱホバの己に命じたまへるごとく爲しヨシユアを取て之を祭司エレアザルと全會衆の前に立せ
23 and leaned his hands upon him and charged him, —As Yahweh spake by the hand of Moses.
その手をこれが上に按き之に命ずることを爲しヱホバのモーセをもて命じたまへる如くなせり
