וְקָרִיבוּ רֵישֵׁי אֲבָהָתָא לְזַרְעִית בְּנֵי גִּלְעָד בַּר מָכִיר בַּר מְנַשֶּׁה מִזַּרְעֲיַת בְּנֵי יוֹסֵף וּמַלִּילוּ קֳדָם משֶׁה וְקֳדָם רַבְרְבַיָּא רֵישֵׁי אֲבָהָתָא לִבְנֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל:
The paternal leaders approached—for the children of Gilad, son of Machir, son of Menashe, of the families of Yoseif’s sons—and they spoke before Moshe and the leaders who were the paternal heads of Bnei Yisroel.
וַאֲמָרוּ יָת רִבּוֹנִי פַּקִּיד יְיָ לְמִתַּן יָת אַרְעָא בְּאַחֲסָנָא בְּעַדְבָא לִבְנֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל וְרִבּוֹנִי אִתְפַּקַּד בְּמֵמְרָא דַיְיָ לְמִתַּן יָת אַחֲסָנַת צְלָפְחָד אָחוּנָא לִבְנָתֵיהּ:
They said: “Adonoy commanded our master to give the land as an inheritance, through the casting of lots, to Bnei Yisroel, and our master was commanded by [the word of] Adonoy to give the inheritance of our brother Tzelofchad to his daughters.
וִיהֶוְיַן לְחַד מִבְּנֵי שִׁבְטַיָּא דִבְנֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל לִנְשִׁין וְתִתְמְנַע אַחֲסַנְתְּהוֹן מֵאַחֲסָנַת אֲבְהָתָנָא וְתִתּוֹסַף עַל אַחֲסָנַת שִׁבְטַיָּא דִּי יֶהֶוְיָן לְהוֹן וּמֵעֲדַב אַחֲסַנְתָּא יִתִּמְנָע:
But if they marry a member of another tribe of Bnei Yisroel, their inheritance will be diminished [subtracted] from our father’s inheritance, and it will be added to the inheritance of the tribe into which they will marry, and from the lot of our inheritance it will be subtracted.
וְאִם יְהֵי יוֹבְלָא לִבְנֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל וְתִתּוֹסַף אַחֲסַנְתְּהוֹן עַל אַחֲסָנַת שִׁבְטָא דִּי תְהֶוְיַן לְהוֹן וּמֵאַחֲסָנַת שִׁבְטָא דַאֲבְהָתָנָא יִתִּמְנַע אַחֲסַנְתְּהֶן:
And even when the yoveil occurs for Bnei Yisroel, their inheritance will be added to the inheritance of the tribe into which they will marry, and from the inheritance of our fathers’ tribe, their inheritance will be subtracted.
וּפַקִּיד משֶׁה יָת בְּנֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל עַל מֵימְרָא דַיְיָ לְמֵימָר יָאוּת שִׁבְטָא דִבְנֵי יוֹסֵף מְמַלְּלִין:
Moshe instructed Bnei Yisroel according to command of Adony, saying: “Correctly are the descendants of Yoseif’s tribe speaking.
דֵּין פִּתְגָּמָא דִּי פַקִּיד יְיָ לִבְנַת צְלָפְחָד לְמֵימַר לִדְתַקִּין בְּעֵינֵיהוֹן תְּהֶוְיַן לִנְשִׁין בְּרַם לְזַרְעִית שִׁבְטָא דַאֲבוּהֶן תְּהֶוְיַן לִנְשִׁין:
This is the word that Adonoy has commanded regarding Tzelofchad’s daughters: ‘Let them marry whom they think best, as long as they marry within their tribe of their father.
וְלָא תַסְחַר אַחֲסָנָא לִבְנֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל מִשִּׁבְטָא לְשִׁבְטָא אֲרֵי גְבַר בְּאַחֲסָנַת שִׁבְטָא דַאֲבָהָתוֹהִי יִדַּבְּקוּן בְּנֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל:
Thereby, there will be no transfer of inheritance of Bnei Yisroel from tribe to tribe but each person to the inheritance of his father’s tribe, shall Bnei Yisroel remain attached.
וְכָל בְּרַתָּא יָרְתַת אַחֲסָנָא מִשִּׁבְטַיָּא דִּבְנֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל לְחַד מִזַּרְעִית שִׁבְטָא דַאֲבוּהָא תְּהֵי לְאִנְתּוּ בְּדִיל דִּי יֵרְתוּן בְּנֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל גְּבַר אַחֲסָנַת אֲבָהָתוֹהִי:
Every daughter who inherits property among the tribes of Bnei Yisroel to a member of her father’s tribe shall she marry, so that each one of Bnei Yisroel will inherit the property of his fathers.
וְלָא תַסְחַר אַחֲסָנָא מִשִּׁבְטָא לְשִׁבְטָא אוֹחֲרָנָא אֲרֵי גְבַר בְּאַחֲסַנְתֵּיהּ יִדְּבְּקוּן שִׁבְטַיָּא דִּבְנֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל:
And no inheritance will be transferred from one tribe to another tribe; for, through every man with his own inheritance, will the tribes of Bnei Yisroel be attached.
כְּמָא דִי פַּקִּיד יְיָ יָת משֶׁה כֵּן עֲבָדוּ בְּנַת צְלָפְחָד:
Exactly as Adonoy commanded Moshe, so did Tzelofchad’s daughters.
וַהֲוָאָה מַחְלָה תִרְצָה וְחָגְלָה וּמִלְכָּה וְנֹעָה בְּנַת צְלָפְחָד לִבְנֵי אֲחֵי אֲבוּהֶן לִנְשִׁין:
And they were—Machlah, Sirtzah, Choglah, Milkah and No’ah, the daughters of Tzelofchad—wives to their cousins [the sons of their father’s brothers].
מִזַרְעֲיַת בְּנֵי מְנַשֶּׁה בַר יוֹסֵף הֲוָאָה לִנְשִׁין וַהֲוַת אַחֲסַנְתְּהֶן עַל שִׁבְטָא זַרְעִית אַבוּהֶן:
From the families of Menashe, son of Yoseif, they married, and their inheritance remained with the tribe of their father’s family.
אִלֵּין פִּקּוֹדַיָּא וְדִינַיָּא דִּי פַקִּיד יְיָ בִּידָא דְמשֶׁה לְוָת בְּנֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל בְּמֵישְׁרַיָּא דְמוֹאָב עַל יַרְדְּנָא דִירֵחוֹ:
These are the commandments and the laws that Adonoy commanded Bnei Yisroel through Moshe, in the plains of Moav at the Yardein near Yereicho. Chazak
