1Pea ko e kau mātuʻa ko e tamai ʻae ngaahi faʻahinga ʻoe fānau ʻa Kiliati ko e foha ʻo Mekili ko e foha ia ʻo Manase, ʻoe ngaahi faʻahinga ʻoe fānau ʻa Siosefa, naʻa nau ʻunuʻunu mai ʻonau lea ʻi he ʻao ʻo Mōsese, mo e ʻao ʻoe houʻeiki, ko e kau mātuʻa tuʻukimuʻa ʻi he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli:
1Now the family heads of the clan of Gilead son of Machir son of Manasseh, one of the clans of Joseph, approached Moses and the leaders who were the heads of the Israelite families and addressed them,
2Pea naʻa nau pehē, “Naʻe fekau ʻe Sihova ki heʻeku ʻeiki ke foaki ʻae fonua ʻi he talotalo, ko e tofiʻa ki he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli: pea naʻe fekau ʻe Sihova ki heʻeku ʻeiki ke foaki ʻae tofiʻa ʻo Silofitati ko homau tokoua ki hono ngaahi ʻofefine.
2saying, “When the LORD commanded my lord to give the land as an inheritance to the Israelites by lot, He also commanded him to give the inheritance of our brother Zelophehad to his daughters.
3Pea kapau tenau mali mo e niʻihi ʻi he ngaahi foha ʻoe ngaahi faʻahinga ʻoe fānau ʻa ʻIsileli, ʻe toki tō ai honau tofiʻa mei he tofiʻa ʻo ʻemau ngaahi tamai, pea ʻe tuku ia ki he tofiʻa ʻoe faʻahinga ʻaia kuo nau ʻalu ki ai: pea ʻe mole pehē ia mei he talotalo ʻo homau tofiʻa.
3But if they marry any of the men from the other tribes of Israel, their inheritance will be withdrawn from the portion of our fathers and added to the tribe into which they marry. So our allotted inheritance would be taken away.
4Pea ʻoka hoko ʻae siupeli ʻoe fānau ʻa ʻIsileli, ʻe lau ai honau tofiʻa ki he tofiʻa ʻoe faʻahinga ʻaia kuo nau maʻu ʻakinautolu: pea ʻe mole pehē ʻa honau tofiʻa mei he tofiʻa ʻoe faʻahinga ʻo ʻemau ngaahi tamai.”
4And when the Jubilee for the Israelites comes, their inheritance will be added to the tribe into which they marry and taken away from the tribe of our fathers.”
5Pea naʻe fekau ʻe Mōsese ki he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli ʻo fakatatau ki he folofola ʻa Sihova, ʻo ne pehē, “Kuo lea totonu ʻae faʻahinga ʻoe ngaahi foha ʻo Siosefa.
5So at the word of the LORD, Moses commanded the Israelites: “The tribe of the sons of Joseph speaks correctly.
6Ko e meʻa eni kuo fekau ʻe Sihova koeʻuhi ko e ngaahi ʻofefine ʻo Silofitati, ʻo pehē, Tuku ʻakinautolu kenau fakamaʻu mo kinautolu ʻoku nau manako ki ai; ka tenau fakamaʻu ʻi he fānau ʻoe faʻahinga pe ʻo ʻenau ngaahi tamai.
6This is what the LORD has commanded concerning the daughters of Zelophehad: They may marry anyone they please, provided they marry within a clan of the tribe of their father.
7Pea ko ia ʻe ʻikai hiki ai ʻae tofiʻa ʻoe fānau ʻa ʻIsileli mei ha faʻahinga ki ha faʻahinga: ka tenau taki taha pikitai ki he tofiʻa ʻoe faʻahinga ʻo ʻene ngaahi tamai.
7No inheritance in Israel may be transferred from tribe to tribe, because each of the Israelites is to retain the inheritance of the tribe of his fathers.
8Pea ko e ʻofefine kotoa pē, ʻoku ne maʻu ha tofiʻa ʻi ha faʻahinga ʻoe fānau ʻa ʻIsileli, ʻe hoko ia ko e uaifi ʻo ha tokotaha ʻi he fānau ʻoe faʻahinga ʻo ʻene tamai, koeʻuhi ke maʻu ʻe he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli ʻe he tangata taki taha ʻae tofiʻa ʻo ʻene ngaahi tamai.
8Every daughter who possesses an inheritance from any Israelite tribe must marry within a clan of the tribe of her father, so that every Israelite will possess the inheritance of his fathers.
9Kaeʻoua ʻe hiki ʻae tofiʻa mei ha faʻahinga ʻe taha ki ha faʻahinga kehe; kae taki taha pikitai ʻae faʻahinga ʻoe fānau ʻa ʻIsileli ki hono tofiʻa ʻoʻona.”
9No inheritance may be transferred from one tribe to another, for each tribe of Israel must retain its inheritance.”
10ʻO hangē ko ia naʻe fekau ʻe Sihova kia Mōsese, naʻe fai pehē ʻae ngaahi ʻofefine ʻo Silofitati:
10So the daughters of Zelophehad did as the LORD had commanded Moses.
11He naʻe fakamaʻu ʻa Mala, mo Tilisa, mo Hokila, mo Milika, mo Noa, ko e ngaahi ʻofefine ʻo Silofitati, mo e ngaahi foha ʻoe tokoua ʻo ʻenau tamai.
11Mahlah, Tirzah, Hoglah, Milcah, and Noah, the daughters of Zelophehad, were married to cousins on their father’s side.
12Pea naʻa nau fakamaʻu ki he ngaahi fānau ʻoe ngaahi foha ʻo Manase ko e foha ʻo Siosefa, pea naʻe maʻu honau tofiʻa ʻi he faʻahinga ʻoe fānau ʻo ʻenau tamai.
12They married within the clans of the descendants of Manasseh son of Joseph, and their inheritance remained within the tribe of their father’s clan.
13Ko e ngaahi fekau eni mo e ngaahi fono, ʻaia naʻe fekau ʻe Sihova ʻi he nima ʻo Mōsese ki he fanau ʻa ʻIsileli ʻi he ngaahi potu tafangafanga ʻo Moape ʻoku ofi ki Soatani, pea ofi ki Seliko.
13These are the commandments and ordinances that the LORD gave the Israelites through Moses on the plains of Moab by the Jordan across from Jericho.
