Amadodakazi kaSelofehadi
1 Kwase kusondela amadodakazi kaSelofehadi kaHeferi kaGileyadi kaMakiri kaManase, awemindeni kaManase indodana kaJosefa; lawa angamagama amadodakazi akhe: oMahela, noNowa, noHogila, noMilka, noTirisa. 2Ema phambi kukaMose naphambi kuka-Eleyazare umpristi, naphambi kwezikhulu, naphambi kwayo yonke inhlangano ngasemnyango wetende lokuhlangana, athi: 3 “Ubaba wafela ehlane; wayengekho phakathi kweviyo labahlanganyela uJehova kulo iviyo likaKora; kepha wafa ngesakhe isono engenamadodana. 4Igama likababa liyakusulelwani emndenini wakhe, lokhu engenandodana na? Siphe ifa phakathi kwabafowabo bakababa.”
5UMose wayiletha indaba yawo phambi kukaJehova. 6UJehova wakhuluma kuMose, wathi: 7“Amadodakazi kaSelofehadi akhulume kahle; uyakuwanika nokuwanika izwe eliyifa phakathi kwabafowabo bakayise ngokulidlulisela kuwo ifa likayise.
8“Wokhuluma kubantwana bakwa-Israyeli ngokuthi: ‘Uma umuntu efa engenandodana, wolidlulisela ifa lakhe kuyo indodakazi yakhe. 9Uma engenandodakazi, niyakunika abafowabo ifa lakhe. 10Uma engenabafowabo, niyakunika abafowabo bakayise ifa lakhe. 11Uma uyise engenabafowabo, niyakunika isihlobo sakhe esiseduze naye emndenini wabo ifa lakhe, alidle. Lokhu kuyakuba yisimiso sesahlulelo kubantwana bakwa-Israyeli, njengalokho uJehova emyalile uMose.’ ”
Ukumiswa kukaJoshuwa abe ngumholi
12 UJehova wathi kuMose: “Khuphukela entabeni yase-Abarimi, ubheke izwe engibanikile lona abantwana bakwa-Israyeli. 13 Lapho ulibonile, nawe uyakubuthelwa kubantu bakini, njengalokho wabuthwa u-Aroni, 14ngokuba ehlane laseSini ekulweni kwenhlangano nahlubuka ezwini lami lokungingcwelisa ngasemanzini phambi kwamehlo abo.” Lawa angamanzi aseMeriba laseKadeshi ehlane laseSini.
15UMose wayesekhuluma kuJehova, wathi: 16“UJehova uNkulunkulu wemimoya yenyama yonke makamise umuntu phezu kwenhlangano, 17 ongaphuma phambi kwabo, angene phambi kwabo, abakhiphe, abangenise, ukuze inhlangano kaJehova ingabi njengezimvu ezingenamalusi.”
18UJehova wathi kuMose: “Zithabathele uJoshuwa indodana kaNuni, umuntu onomoya, ubeke isandla sakho phezu kwakhe, 19ummise ngaphambi kuka-Eleyazare umpristi naphambi kwayo yonke inhlangano, umnike isikhundla emehlweni abo. 20Uyakubeka udumo lwakho phezu kwakhe ukuba yonke inhlangano yabantwana bakwa-Israyeli ilalele. 21 Uyakuma phambi kuka-Eleyazare umpristi oyakumbuzela ngokunquma kwe-Urimi* phambi kukaJehova; ngezwi lakhe bayakuphuma nangezwi lakhe bayakungena, yena nabo bonke abantwana bakwa-Israyeli kanye naye, yebo, yonke inhlangano.”
22UMose wenza-ke njengalokho uJehova emyalile; wamthatha uJoshuwa, wambeka phambi kuka-Eleyazare umpristi naphambi kwenhlangano yonke, 23wabeka izandla zakhe phezu kwakhe, wamnika isikhundla, njengalokho uJehova ekhulumile ngesandla sikaMose.
