Numbers 36
1 And the chief fathers of the families of the children 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 chief fathers of the children of Israel:
Gilead abusua no ntuanofo, Makir a ɔyɛ Manase babarima ne Yosef nena asefo, kɔɔ Mose ne Israel mmusua ntuanofo no nkyɛn de adesrɛde kɔtoo wɔn anim.
2 And they said, The LORD commanded my lord to give the land for an inheritance by lot to the children of Israel: and my lord was commanded by the LORD to give the inheritance of Zelophehad our brother to his daughters.
Wɔkae se, “Awurade hyɛɛ wo se bɔ ntonto na gyina so kyekyɛ asase no ma Israelfo no. Awurade ɔhyɛɛ wo se fa yɛn nuabarima Selofehad agyapade ma ne mmabea.
3 And if they shall be married to any of the sons of the other tribes of the children of Israel, then shall their inheritance be taken from the inheritance of our fathers, and shall be put to the inheritance of the tribe into which they are received: so it shall be taken from the lot of our inheritance.
Na sɛ ɛba sɛ wɔn mu bi kɔware wɔ abusua foforo mu a, ɔde asase a wɔde ama no no bɛkɔ aware. Sɛ ɛba saa a, yɛn abusua no asase a wɔde ama yɛn no so bɛtew.
4 And when the jubilee of the children of Israel shall be, then shall their inheritance be put to the inheritance of the tribe into which they are received: so shall their inheritance be taken away from the inheritance of the tribe of our fathers.
Sɛ Israelfo Mfirihyia Aduonum Afahyɛ no du so a, wɔde wɔn agyapade no bɛka abusua a wɔkɔwaree wɔ mu no de ho, na wobeyi afi yɛn agyanom abusua agyapade mu.”
5 And Moses commanded the children of Israel according to the word of the LORD, saying, The tribe of the sons of Joseph hath said well.
Enti Mose de saa ɔhyɛ nsɛm a efi Awurade yi maa Israelfo no: “Yosef abusuakuw mu nnipa no asɛm no yɛ nokware.
6 This is the thing which the LORD doth command concerning the daughters of Zelophehad, saying, Let them marry to whom they think best; only to the family of the tribe of their father shall they marry.
Nea Awurade rehyɛ ama Selofehad mmabea no ni: Wotumi ware ɔbarima biara a wɔpɛ a ofi wɔn agya abusuakuw mu.
7 So shall not the inheritance of the children of Israel move from tribe to tribe: for every one of the children of Israel shall keep himself to the inheritance of the tribe of his fathers.
Ɛnsɛ sɛ Israel agyapade biara fi abusuakuw bi mu kɔ abusuakuw foforo nsam, efisɛ ɛsɛ sɛ Israel agyanom abusuakuw biara agyapade tena hɔ sɛnea ɛte no.
8 And every daughter, that possesseth an inheritance in any tribe of the children of Israel, shall be wife to one of the family of the tribe of her father, that the children of Israel may enjoy every man the inheritance of his fathers.
Ɛsɛ sɛ mmabea a wɔwɔ Israel mmusuakuw mu nyinaa a agyapade tumi kɔ wɔn nsam no wareware wɔ wɔn agyanom mmusuakuw mu na Israel abusuakuw biara agyanom agyapade amfi wɔn abusuakuw mu.
9 Neither shall the inheritance move from one tribe to another tribe; but every one of the tribes of the children of Israel shall keep himself to his own inheritance.
Ɛnsɛ sɛ agyapade biara fi abusuakuw bi nsam kodi ɔfoforo nsam, ɛsɛ sɛ Israel Abusuakuw biara asase a wanya no tena hɔ.”
10 Even as the LORD commanded Moses, so did the daughters of Zelophehad:
Selofehad mmabea no yɛɛ sɛnea Awurade hyɛɛ Mose no.
11 For Mahlah, Tirzah, and Hoglah, and Milcah, and Noah, the daughters of Zelophehad, were married to their father’s brothers’ sons:
Mahla, Tirsa, Hogla, Milka ne Noa nyinaa wareware wɔn agyanom nuabarimanom mma.
12 And they were married into the families of the sons of Manasseh the son of Joseph, and their inheritance remained in the tribe of the family of their father.
Wɔwarewaree wɔ Yosef babarima Manase mmusua mu enti wɔn agyapade no kaa wɔn abusuakuw no mu.
13 These are the commandments and the judgments, which the LORD commanded by the hand of Moses to the children of Israel in the plains of Moab by Jordan near Jericho.
Eyinom ne mmara ne nhyehyɛe a Awurade nam Mose so de maa Israelfo wɔ Moab tataw so no, wɔ Asubɔnten Yordan a na wɔafi Yeriko atwa no.
