Numbers 27

CATHOLIC PUBLIC DOMAIN	NOVA VULGATA
1 Then there approached the daughters of Zelophehad, the son of Hepher, the son of Gilead, the son of Machir, the son of Manasseh, who was the son of Joseph: and their names are Mahlah, and Noa, and Hoglah, and Milcah, and Tirzah.	1 Accesserunt autem filiae Sal phaad filii Hepher filii Ga laad filii Machir filii Manasse, e cognationibus Manasse, qui fuit filius Ioseph, quarum sunt nomina: Maala et Noa et Hegla et Melcha et Thersa.
2 And they stood before Moses and Eleazar the priest, and all the leaders of the people, at the door of the tabernacle of the covenant, and they said:	2 Steteruntque coram Moyse et Eleazaro sacerdote et principibus et cuncta congregatione ad ostium tabernaculi conventus atque dixerunt:
3 “Our father died in the desert, and was not with the sedition, which was stirred up against the Lord under Korah, but he died in his own sin; he had no male sons. Why is his name taken away from his family, because he had no son? Give us a possession among the kinsmen of our father.”	3 “ Pater noster mortuus est in deserto, nec fuit in seditione, quae concitata est contra Dominum sub Core, sed in peccato suo mortuus est; hic non habuit mares filios.
4 And Moses referred their case to the judgment of the Lord.	4 Cur tollitur nomen illius de familia sua, quia non habuit filium? Date nobis possessionem inter fratres patris nostri ”.
5 And the Lord said to him:	5 Rettulitque Moyses causam earum ad iudicium Domini,
6 “The daughters of Zelophehad are asking for something just. So give them a possession among the kinsmen of their father, and let them succeed him in his inheritance.	6 qui dixit ad eum:
7 And to the sons of Israel, you shall speak these things:	7 “ Iustam rem postulant filiae Salphaad. Da eis possessionem inter fratres patris sui, et ei in hereditatem succedant.
8 When a man dies without a son, his inheritance shall be transferred to his daughter.	8 Ad filios autem Israel loqueris haec: Homo cum mortuus fuerit absque filio, ad filiam eius transibit hereditas;
9 If he has no daughter, his brothers shall succeed him.	9 si filiam non habuerit, habebit successores fratres suos.
10 But if there were also no brothers, you shall give the inheritance to the brothers of his father.	10 Quod si et fratres non fuerint, dabitis hereditatem fratribus patris eius.
11 But if he has no paternal uncles, the inheritance shall be given to those who are closest to him. And this shall be, for the sons of Israel, consecrated as a perpetual law, just as the Lord has instructed Moses.”	11 Sin autem nec patruos habuerit, dabitur hereditas illi, qui ei proximus est e cognatione sua; possidebitque eam. Eritque hoc filiis Israel sanctum lege perpetua, sicut praecepit Dominus Moysi ”.
12 The Lord also said to Moses: “Ascend onto this mountain, Abarim, and contemplate from there the land, which I will give to the sons of Israel.	12 Dixit quoque Dominus ad Moysen: “ Ascende in montem istum Abarim et contemplare inde terram, quam daturus sum filiis Israel.
13 And when you have seen it, you shall then go to your people, just as your brother Aaron went.	13 Cumque videris eam, ibis et tu ad populum tuum, sicut ivit frater tuus Aaron,
14 For you offended me in the desert of Sin at the Contradiction of the multitude; neither were you willing to sanctify me in their sight over the waters. These are the Waters of Contradiction at Kadesh in the desert of Sin.”	14 quia offendistis me in deserto Sin in contradictione congregationis, nec sanctificare me voluistis coram ea super aquas ”. Hae sunt aquae Meribathcades deserti Sin.
15 Moses answered him:	15 Cui respondit Moyses:
16 “May the Lord, the God of the spirits of all flesh, provide a man, who may be over this multitude,	16 “ Provideat Dominus, Deus spirituum omnis carnis, hominem, qui sit super congregationem hanc
17 and who may be able to exit and enter before them, and who may lead them out or lead them in: lest the people of the Lord be like sheep without a shepherd.”	17 et possit exire et intrare ante eos et educere eos vel introducere, ne sit populus Domini sicut oves absque pastore ”.
18 And the Lord said to him: “Take Joshua, the son of Nun, a man in whom the Spirit is, and place your hand upon him.	18 Dixitque Dominus ad eum: “ Tolle Iosue filium Nun, virum in quo est spiritus; et pone manum tuam super eum,
19 And he shall stand before Eleazar the priest and the entire multitude.	19 quem statues coram Eleazaro sacerdote et omni congregatione et dabis ei praecepta, cunctis videntibus,
20 And you shall give him the precepts in the sight of all, and a portion of your glory, so that the entire congregation of the sons of Israel may listen to him.	20 et partem gloriae tuae, ut audiat eum omnis synagoga filiorum Israel.
21 On his behalf, if anything is to be done, Eleazar the priest shall consult the Lord. He, and all the sons of Israel with him, and the rest of the multitude, shall go out and enter in at his word.”	21 Stabit coram Eleazaro sacerdote, qui pro eo iudicium Urim consulet Dominum. Ad verbum eius egredietur et ingredietur ipse et omnes filii Israel cum eo, cuncta congregatio ”.
22 Moses did just as the Lord had instructed. And when he had brought Joshua, he set him before Eleazar the priest, and before the entire gathering of the people.	22 Fecit Moyses, ut praeceperat Dominus. Cumque tulisset Iosue, statuit eum coram Eleazaro sacerdote et omni frequentia populi;
23 And imposing his hands upon his head, he repeated all that the Lord had commanded.	23 et, impositis capiti eius manibus, constituit eum, sicut mandaverat Dominus per manum Moysi.
