Lederne for familiene til Gileads barn, sønn av Makir, sønn av Manasse, av slektene til Josefs sønner, kom fram og talte foran Moses og foran høvdingene, lederne for Israels barns familier.

The heads of the fathers' [houses] of the family 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 heads of the fathers' [houses] of the children of Israel:

De sa: Herren påla min herre å gi landet som arv ved lodd til Israels barn, og min herre ble pålagt av Herren å gi arven til vår bror Selofhads døtre.

and they said, Yahweh commanded my lord to give the land for inheritance by lot to the children of Israel: and my lord was commanded by Yahweh to give the inheritance of Zelophehad our brother to his daughters.

Hvis de gifter seg med noen av sønnene fra de andre stammene av Israels barn, blir arven deres tatt fra arven til våre fedre og overført til stammens arv de tilhører. Slik blir den tatt fra arven vi eier.

If they be married to any of the sons of the [other] tribes of the children of Israel, then will their inheritance be taken away from the inheritance of our fathers, and will be added to the inheritance of the tribe whereunto they shall belong: so will it be taken away from the lot of our inheritance.

Når jubileumsåret for Israels barn kommer, blir arven deres lagt til arven til stammens de tilhører, og slik blir arven deres tatt fra arven til vår stamme.

When the jubilee of the children of Israel shall be, then will their inheritance be added to the inheritance of the tribe whereunto they shall belong: so will their inheritance be taken away from the inheritance of the tribe of our fathers.

Moses gav Israels barn befaling i henhold til Herrens ord og sa: Josef-stammen taler rett.

Moses commanded the children of Israel according to the word of Yahweh, saying, The tribe of the sons of Joseph speaks right.

Dette sier Herren vedrørende Selofhads døtre: La dem gifte seg med dem de selv ønsker, men bare innen familien til sin fars stamme skal de gifte seg.

This is the thing which Yahweh does command concerning the daughters of Zelophehad, saying, Let them be married to whom they think best; only into the family of the tribe of their father shall they be married.

Slik skal ingen arv fra Israels barn gå over fra stamme til stamme, for hver av Israels barn skal holde fast ved arven til sin fars stamme.

So shall no inheritance of the children of Israel remove from tribe to tribe; for the children of Israel shall cleave everyone to the inheritance of the tribe of his fathers.

Hver datter som eier arv i en stamme av Israels barn, skal bli hustru til en av sin fars stammefamilie, slik at Israels barn kan eie hver sin fars arv.

Every daughter, who possesses 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 possess every man the inheritance of his fathers.

Så skal ingen arv gå over fra en stamme til en annen stamme, for stammene til Israels barn skal holde fast ved hver sin arv.

So shall no inheritance remove from one tribe to another tribe; for the tribes of the children of Israel shall cleave everyone to his own inheritance.

Slik som Herren befalte Moses, slik gjorde Selofhads døtre.

Even as Yahweh commanded Moses, so did the daughters of Zelophehad:

Mahla, Tirsa, Hogla, Milka og Noa, Selofhads døtre, giftet seg med sine fars brødres sønner.

for Mahlah, Tirzah, and Hoglah, and Milcah, and Noah, the daughters of Zelophehad, were married to their father's brothers' sons.

De giftet seg innenfor slektene til Manasses sønner, Josefs sønn, og arven deres forble i stammens familie til deres far.

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.

Dette er budene og forskriftene som Herren befalte gjennom Moses til Israels barn på Moabs slettene ved Jordan, nær Jeriko.

These are the commandments and the ordinances which Yahweh commanded by Moses to the children of Israel in the plains of Moab by the Jordan at Jericho.
