1Pea naʻe toki haʻu ʻae ngaahi ʻofefine ʻo Silofitati, ko e foha ʻo Hefeli ko e foha ia ʻo Kiliati, ko e foha ia ʻo Mekili ko e foha ia ʻo Manase, ʻi he ngaahi faʻahinga ʻo Manase ko e foha ʻo Siosefa: pea ko e ngaahi hingoa eni ʻo hono ngaahi ʻofefine; ko Mala, mo Noa, mo Hokila, mo Milika, mo Tilisa.
1Then came the daughters of Salphaad, the son of Hepher, the son of Galaad, the son of Machir, the son of Manasses, who was the son of Joseph: and their names are Maala, and Noa, and Hegla, and Melcha, and Thersa.
2Pea naʻa nau tuʻu ʻi he ʻao ʻo Mōsese, mo e ʻao ʻo ʻEliesa ko e taulaʻeiki, pea mo e ʻao ʻoe houʻeiki mo e kakai kotoa pē ʻi he matapā ʻoe fale fehikitaki ʻoe kakai, ʻonau pehē,
2And they stood before Moses and Eleazar the priest, and all the princes of the people at the door of the tabernacle of the covenant, and said:
3“Naʻe mate ʻemau tamai ʻi he toafa, pea naʻe ʻikai kau ia ki he kakai naʻe fakataha ʻakinautolu ke angatuʻu kia Sihova ʻi he kakai ʻo Kola; ka naʻe mate ia ʻi heʻene angahala ʻaʻana, pea naʻe ʻikai hano ngaahi foha.
3Our father died in the desert, and was not in the sedition, that was raised against the Lord under Core, but he died in his own sin: and he had no male children. Why is his name taken away out of his family, because he had no son? Give us a possession among the kinsmen of our father.
4Pea ko e hā ʻe mole ai ʻae hingoa ʻo ʻemau tamai mei hono faʻahinga, koeʻuhi ʻoku ʻikai hano foha? Foaki mai kiate kimautolu ha tofiʻa ʻi he kāinga ʻo ʻemau tamai.
4And Moses referred their cause to the judgment of the Lord.
5Pea naʻe ʻomi ʻe Mōsese ʻenau meʻa ki he ʻao ʻo Sihova.
5And the Lord said to him:
6¶ Pea naʻe folofola ʻa Sihova kia Mōsese, ʻo pehē,
6The daughters of Salphaad demand a just thing: Give them a possession among their father’s kindred, and let them succeed him in his inheritance.
7ʻOku lea totonu ʻae ngaahi ʻofefine ʻo Silofitati: ko e moʻoni te ke foaki kenau maʻu ha tofiʻa ʻi he kāinga ʻo ʻenau tamai; pea ke tuku ke hoko ʻae tofiʻa ʻo ʻenau tamai kiate kinautolu.
7And to the children of Israel thou shalt speak these things:
8Pea te ke lea ki he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli, ʻo pehē, Kapau ʻe mate ha tangata, ka ʻoku ʻikai hano foha, te mou tuku ke hoko hono ʻofefine ki hono tofiʻa.
8When a man dieth without a son, his inheritance shall pass to his daughter.
9Pea kapau ʻoku ʻikai hano ʻofefine, te mou tuku hono tofiʻa ki hono kāinga.
9If he have no daughter, his brethren shall succeed him.
10Pea kapau ʻoku ʻikai hano kāinga, te mou tuku hono tofiʻa ki he kāinga ʻo ʻene tamai.
10And if he have no brethren, you shall give the inheritance to his father’s brethren.
11Pea kapau ʻoku ʻikai ha kāinga ʻo ʻene tamai, te mou toki tuku hono tofiʻa ki hono kāinga ʻoku na vāofi ʻi hono faʻahinga, pea te ne maʻu ia: pea ʻe tuku ia ki he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli ko e fono ʻoe fakamaau, ʻo hangē ko e fekau ʻa Sihova kia Mōsese.”
11But if he have no uncles by the father, the inheritance shall be given to them that are the next akin. And this shall be to the children of Israel sacred by a perpetual law, as the Lord hath commanded Moses.
12¶ Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Sihova kia Mōsese, “Ke ke ʻalu hake ki he moʻunga ni ko ʻApalimi, ʻo mamata ki he fonua ʻaia kuo u foaki ki he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli.
12The Lord also said to Moses: Go up into this mountain Abarim, and view from thence the land which I will give to the children of Israel.
13Pea ʻoka ke ka mamata ki ai, ʻe tānaki foki ko e ki ho kakai, ʻo hangē ko e tānaki ʻa ho taʻokete ko ʻElone.
13And when thou shalt have seen it, thou also shalt go to thy people, as thy brother Aaron is gone:
14Koeʻuhi naʻa mo angatuʻu ki heʻeku fekau ʻi he toafa ʻo Sini, ʻi he vākē ʻae kakai, ke fakahikihiki au ʻi he vai ʻi honau ʻao:” ʻaia ko e vai ko Melipa ʻi Ketesi ʻi he toafa ʻo Sini.
14Because you offended me in the desert of Sin in the contradiction of the multitude, neither would you sanctify me before them at the waters. These are the waters of contradiction in Cades of the desert of Sin.
15¶ Pea naʻe lea ʻa Mōsese kia Sihova, ʻo pehē,
15And Moses answered him:
16“Tuku ke fakanofo ʻe Sihova, ko e ʻOtua ʻoe laumālie ʻoe kakai kotoa pē, ha tangata ke pule ki he kakai,
16May the Lord the God of the spirits of all flesh provide a man, that may be over this multitude:
17ʻAia ʻe muʻomuʻa atu ʻi heʻenau ʻalu atu, pea muʻomuʻa mai ʻi heʻenau haʻu, pea ne tataki atu ʻe ia ʻakinautolu, pea tataki mai ʻe ia ʻakinautolu; koeʻuhi ke ʻoua naʻa hangē ʻae kakai ʻa Sihova ko e fanga sipi ʻoku ʻikai hano tauhi.”
17And may go out and in before them, and may lead them out, or bring them in: lest the people of the Lord be as sheep without a shepherd.
18¶ Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Sihova kia Mōsese, “Ke ke ʻomi ʻe koe ʻa Siosiua ko e foha ʻo Nuni, ko e tangata ʻoku ʻiate ia ʻae laumālie, pea ke hilifaki ho nima kiate ia;
18And the Lord said to him: Take Josue the son of Nun, a man in whom is the Spirit, and put thy hand upon him.
19Pea tuku ia ʻi he ʻao ʻo ʻEliesa ko e taulaʻeiki, pea mo e ʻao ʻoe kakai kotoa pē; pea ke tuku ʻae fekau kiate ia ʻi honau ʻao.
19And he shall stand before Eleazar the priest and all the multitude:
20Pea te ke tuku kiate ia mei ho ongoongolelei ʻoʻou, koeʻuhi ke talangofua ʻae fānau kotoa pē ʻa ʻIsileli.
20And thou shalt give him precepts in the sight of all, and part of thy glory, that all the congregation of the children of Israel may hear him.
21Pea ʻe tuʻu ia ʻi he ʻao ʻo ʻEliesa ko e taulaʻeiki, pea te ne kumi ha poto maʻana ʻi he fakaʻilo ʻae ʻUlimi ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova: tenau ʻalu atu ʻi heʻene folofola, pea tenau foki mai ʻi heʻene folofola, ko ia, pea mo e kakai ʻo ʻIsileli fakataha mo ia, ʻio ʻae kakai kotoa pē.”
21If any thing be to be done, Eleazar the priest shall consult the Lord for him. He and all the children of Israel with him, and the rest of the multitude shall go out and go in at his word.
22Pea naʻe fai ʻe Mōsese ʻo hangē ko e fekau ʻa Sihova kiate ia: ʻo ne ʻave ʻa Siosiua, ʻo tuku ia ʻi he ʻao ʻo ʻEliesa ko e taulaʻeiki, mo e ʻao ʻoe kakai kotoa pē:
22Moses did as the Lord had commanded. And when he had taken Josue, he set him before Eleazar the priest, and all the assembly of the people,
23Pea naʻe ʻai ʻe ia ʻa hono nima kiate ia, mo ne lea kiate ia, ʻo hangē ko ia naʻe fekau ʻe Sihova ʻi he nima ʻo Mōsese.
23And laying his hands on his head, he repeated all things that the Lord had commanded.
