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.

’Ya’yan nan mata na Zelofehad, ɗan Hefer, ɗan Gileyad, ɗan Makir, ɗan Manasse, suna cikin kabilan Manasse ɗan Yusuf, suka tafi ƙofar shiga Tentin Sujada. Sunayensu kuwa su ne Mala, Nowa, Hogla, Milka da kuma Tirza.

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,

Da suka tafi ƙofar shiga Tentin Sujada, sai suka tsaya a gaban Musa, Eleyazar firist, shugabannin da sauran taro, suka ce,

3 “Our father died in the wilderness. He was not amongst 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.

“Mahaifinmu ya mutu a hamada. Ba ya cikin mabiyan Kora waɗanda suka taru suka tayar wa Ubangiji, amma ya mutu ne saboda zunubinsa, bai kuma bar’ya’ya maza ba.

4 Why should the name of our father be taken away from amongst his family, because he had no son? Give to us a possession amongst the brothers of our father.”

Me ya sa sunan mahaifinmu zai ɓace a kabilarsa don kawai ba shi da ɗa? Ka ba mu gādo cikin’yan’uwan mahaifinmu.”

5 Moses brought their cause before the LORD.

Saboda haka Musa ya kawo maganarsu a gaban Ubangiji.

6 The LORD spoke to Moses, saying,

Ubangiji kuwa ya ce wa masa,

7 “The daughters of Zelophehad speak right. You shall surely give them a possession of an inheritance amongst their father’s brothers. You shall cause the inheritance of their father to pass to them.

“Abin da’ya’yan nan mata na Zelofehad suke faɗi gaskiya ne. Dole ka ba su mallaka a matsayin gādo cikin’yan’uwan mahaifinsu, ka kuma mayar musu da gādon mahaifinsu.

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.

“Ka faɗa wa Isra’ilawa cewa, ‘In wani ya mutu ba shi da ɗa, a ba da gādonsa ga’yarsa.

9 If he has no daughter, then you shall give his inheritance to his brothers.

In ba shi da diya, sai a ba wa’yan’uwansa gādonsa.

10 If he has no brothers, then you shall give his inheritance to his father’s brothers.

In ba shi da’yan’uwa, a ba da gādonsa ga’yan’uwan mahaifinsa.

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.’”

In mahaifinsa ba shi da’yan’uwa, a ba da gādonsa ga danginsa na kusa, a kabilarsa don yă mallaka. Wannan ya zama ƙa’ida wa Isra’ilawa, yadda Ubangiji ya umarci Musa.’”

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.

Sa’an nan Ubangiji ya ce wa Musa, “Hau bisa wannan dutse a Abarim. Ka ga ƙasar da na ba wa Isra’ilawa.

13 When you have seen it, you also shall be gathered to your people, as Aaron your brother was gathered;

Bayan ka gani, kai ma za ka bi ƙafafun mutanenka, kamar yadda ɗan’uwanka Haruna ya yi,

14 because in the strife of the congregation, you rebelled against my word in the wilderness of Zin, to honour me as holy at the waters before their eyes.” (These are the waters of Meribah of Kadesh in the wilderness of Zin.)

gama sa’ad da jama’a suka yi tayarwa saboda rashin ruwa a Hamadan Zin, ku biyu, ba ku kiyaye umarnina don ku ɗaukaka ni matsayin mai tsarki, a gabansu ba.” (Waɗannan su ne ruwaye na Meriba da Kadesh, a Hamadan Zin.)

15 Moses spoke to the LORD, saying,

Musa ya ce wa Ubangiji,

16 “Let the LORD, the God of the spirits of all flesh, appoint a man over the congregation,

“Bari Ubangiji, Allah na ruhohin’yan adam, yă naɗa wani a kan wannan jama’a

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.”

yă shiga, yă kuma fita a gabansu, wanda zai bishe su zuwa waje, yă kuma dawo da su ciki, don kada mutanen Ubangiji su zama kamar tumakin da ba su da makiyayi.”

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.

Sai Ubangiji ya ce wa Musa, “Ka ɗauki Yoshuwa ɗan Nun, mutumin da ruhun shugabanci yake a cikinsa, ka ɗibiya masa hannunka.

19 Set him before Eleazar the priest, and before all the congregation; and commission him in their sight.

Ka sa yă tsaya a gaban Eleyazar firist, da gaban dukan jama’a, sa’an nan ka keɓe shi a gabansu.

20 You shall give authority to him, that all the congregation of the children of Israel may obey.

Ka danƙa masa ikonka don dukan jama’a Isra’ilawa su yi masa biyayya.

21 He shall stand before Eleazar the priest, who shall enquire for him by the judgement 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.”

Zai tsaya a gaban Eleyazar firist, wanda zai nemi masa shawara ta wurin Urim a gaban Ubangiji. Da umarninsa, da shi da dukan jama’ar Isra’ilawa za su fita, da umarninsa kuma za su shiga.”

22 Moses did as the LORD commanded him. He took Joshua, and set him before Eleazar the priest and before all the congregation.

Musa ya yi yadda Ubangiji ya umarce shi. Ya ɗauki Yoshuwa, ya sa ya tsaya a gaban Eleyazar firist, da kuma gaban dukan jama’a.

23 He laid his hands on him and commissioned him, as the LORD spoke by Moses.

Sai ya ɗibiya masa hannuwansa, ya keɓe shi, yadda Ubangiji ya umarta ta wurin Musa.
