Numbers 27

NEW AMERICAN BIBLE	LXX
1 Zelophehad, son of Hepher, son of Gilead, son of Machir, son of Manasseh, son of Joseph, had daughters named Mahlah, Noah, Hoglah, Milcah and Tirzah. They came forward,	1 και προσελθουσαι αι θυγατερες σαλπααδ υιου οφερ υιου γαλααδ υιου μαχιρ του δημου μανασση των υιων ιωσηφ και ταυτα τα ονοματα αυτων μαλα και νουα και εγλα και μελχα και θερσα
2 and standing in the presence of Moses, the priest Eleazar, the princes, and the whole community at the entrance of the meeting tent, said:	2 και στασαι εναντι μωυση και εναντι ελεαζαρ του ιερεως και εναντι των αρχοντων και εναντι πασης συναγωγης επι της θυρας της σκηνης του μαρτυριου λεγουσιν
3 "Our father died in the desert. Although he did not join those who banded together against the LORD (in Korah's band), he died for his own sin without leaving any sons.	3 ο πατηρ ημων απεθανεν εν τη ερημω και αυτος ουκ ην εν μεσω της συναγωγης της επισυστασης εναντι κυριου εν τη συναγωγη κορε οτι δια αμαρτιαν αυτου απεθανεν και υιοι ουκ εγενοντο αυτω
4 But why should our father's name be withdrawn from his clan merely because he had no son? Let us, therefore, have property among our father's kinsmen."	4 μη εξαλειφθητω το ονομα του πατρος ημων εκ μεσου του δημου αυτου οτι ουκ εστιν αυτω υιος δοτε ημιν κατασχεσιν εν μεσω αδελφων πατρος ημων
5 When Moses laid their case before the LORD,	5 και προσηγαγεν μωυσης την κρισιν αυτων εναντι κυριου
6 the LORD said to him,	6 και ελαλησεν κυριος προς μωυσην λεγων
7 "The plea of Zelophehad's daughters is just; you shall give them hereditary property among their father's kinsmen, letting their father's heritage pass on to them.	7 ορθως θυγατερες σαλπααδ λελαληκασιν δομα δωσεις αυταις κατασχεσιν κληρονομιας εν μεσω αδελφων πατρος αυτων και περιθησεις τον κληρον του πατρος αυτων αυταις
8 Therefore, tell the Israelites: If a man dies without leaving a son, you shall let his heritage pass on to his daughter;	8 και τοις υιοις ισραηλ λαλησεις λεγων ανθρωπος εαν αποθανη και υιος μη η αυτω περιθησετε την κληρονομιαν αυτου τη θυγατρι αυτου
9 if he has no daughter, you shall give his heritage to his brothers;	9 εαν δε μη η θυγατηρ αυτω δωσετε την κληρονομιαν τω αδελφω αυτου
10 if he has no brothers, you shall give his heritage to his father's brothers;	10 εαν δε μη ωσιν αυτω αδελφοι δωσετε την κληρονομιαν τω αδελφω του πατρος αυτου
11 if his father had no brothers, you shall give his heritage to his nearest relative in his clan, who shall then take possession of it." This is the legal norm for the Israelites, as the LORD commanded Moses.	11 εαν δε μη ωσιν αδελφοι του πατρος αυτου δωσετε την κληρονομιαν τω οικειω τω εγγιστα αυτου εκ της φυλης αυτου κληρονομησει τα αυτου και εσται τουτο τοις υιοις ισραηλ δικαιωμα κρισεως καθα συνεταξεν κυριος τω μωυση
12 The LORD said to Moses, "Go up here into the Abarim Mountains and view the land that I am giving to the Israelites.	12 και ειπεν κυριος προς μωυσην αναβηθι εις το ορος το εν τω περαν τουτο ορος ναβαυ και ιδε την γην χανααν ην εγω διδωμι τοις υιοις ισραηλ εν κατασχεσει
13 When you have viewed it, you too shall be taken to your people, as was your brother Aaron,	13 και οψει αυτην και προστεθηση προς τον λαον σου και συ καθα προσετεθη ααρων ο αδελφος σου εν ωρ τω ορει
14 because in the rebellion of the community in the desert of Zin you both rebelled against my order to manifest my sanctity to them by means of the water." (This is the water of Meribah of Kadesh in the desert of Zin.)	14 διοτι παρεβητε το ρημα μου εν τη ερημω σιν εν τω αντιπιπτειν την συναγωγην αγιασαι με ουχ ηγιασατε με επι τω υδατι εναντι αυτων τουτο εστιν υδωρ αντιλογιας καδης εν τη ερημω σιν
15 Then Moses said to the LORD,	15 και ειπεν μωυσης προς κυριον
16 "May the LORD, the God of the spirits of all mankind, set over the community a man	16 επισκεψασθω κυριος ο θεος των πνευματων και πασης σαρκος ανθρωπον επι της συναγωγης ταυτης
17 who shall act as their leader in all things, to guide them in all their actions; that the LORD'S community may not be like sheep without a shepherd."	17 οστις εξελευσεται προ προσωπου αυτων και οστις εισελευσεται προ προσωπου αυτων και οστις εξαξει αυτους και οστις εισαξει αυτους και ουκ εσται η συναγωγη κυριου ωσει προβατα οις ουκ εστιν ποιμην
18 And the LORD replied to Moses, "Take Joshua, son of Nun, a man of spirit, and lay your hand upon him.	18 και ελαλησεν κυριος προς μωυσην λεγων λαβε προς σεαυτον τον ιησουν υιον ναυη ανθρωπον ος εχει πνευμα εν εαυτω και επιθησεις τας χειρας σου επ' αυτον
19 Have him stand in the presence of the priest Eleazar and of the whole community, and commission him before their eyes.	19 και στησεις αυτον εναντι ελεαζαρ του ιερεως και εντελη αυτω εναντι πασης συναγωγης και εντελη περι αυτου εναντιον αυτων
20 Invest him with some of your own dignity, that the whole Israelite community may obey him.	20 και δωσεις της δοξης σου επ' αυτον οπως αν εισακουσωσιν αυτου οι υιοι ισραηλ
21 He shall present himself to the priest Eleazar, to have him seek out for him the decisions of the Urim in the LORD'S presence; and as he directs, Joshua, all the Israelites with him, and the community as a whole shall perform all their actions."	21 και εναντι ελεαζαρ του ιερεως στησεται και επερωτησουσιν αυτον την κρισιν των δηλων εναντι κυριου επι τω στοματι αυτου εξελευσονται και επι τω στοματι αυτου εισελευσονται αυτος και οι υιοι ισραηλ ομοθυμαδον και πασα η συναγωγη
22 Moses did as the LORD had commanded him. Taking Joshua and having him stand in the presence of the priest Eleazar and of the whole community,	22 και εποιησεν μωυσης καθα ενετειλατο αυτω κυριος και λαβων τον ιησουν εστησεν αυτον εναντιον ελεαζαρ του ιερεως και εναντι πασης συναγωγης
23 he laid his hands on him and gave him his commission, as the LORD had directed through Moses.	23 και επεθηκεν τας χειρας αυτου επ' αυτον και συνεστησεν αυτον καθαπερ συνεταξεν κυριος τω μωυση
