The law of inheritance. Josue is appointed to succeed Moses.

1Then came the daughters of Salphaad, the son of Hepher, the son of Galaad, the son of Machir, the son of Manasses, who was the son of Joseph: and their names are Maala, and Noa, and Hegla, and Melcha, and Thersa.Allora andarono le figliuole di Salphaad (figliuolo di Hepher figliuolo di Galaad figliuolo di Machir figliuolo di Manasse, il quale fu figliuolo di Giuseppe): i nomi delle quali erano Maala, e Noa, ed Hegla, e Melcha, e Thersa:AND there came the daughters of Salphaad, the sonne of Hepher, the sonne of Galaad, rhe sonne of Machir, the sonne of Manasses, who was the sonne of Ioseph: whose names are, Malaa, and Noa, and Hegla, and Melcha, and Thersa.Accesserunt autem filiæ Salphaad, filii Hepher, filii Galaad, filii Machir, filii Manasse, qui fuit filius Joseph: quarum sunt nomina, Maala, et Noa, et Hegla, et Melcha, et Thersa. 2And they stood before Moses and Eleazar the priest, and all the princes of the people at the door of the tabernacle of the covenant, and said:E si presentarono a Mosè, e ad Eleazaro sommo sacerdote, e a tutti i principi del popolo dinanzi alla porta del tabernacolo dell'alleanza, e dissero:And they stood before Moyses and Eleazar the priest, and al the princes of the people at the doore of the tabernacle of couenant, and said:Steteruntque coram Moyse et Eleazaro sacerdote et cunctis principibus populi ad ostium tabernaculi fœderis, atque dixerunt: 3Our father died in the desert, and was not in the sedition, that was raised against the Lord under Core, but he died in his own sin: and he had no male children. Why is his name taken away out of his family, because he had no son? Give us a possession among the kinsmen of our father.Il padre nostro si morì nel deserto, e non ebbe parte alla sedizione mossa contro il Signore, di cui il caporione fu Core; ma si morì nel suo peccato: egli non ebbe figliuoli maschi. Per qual ragione il suo nome è tolto alla sua famiglia, non avendo egli avuto un figliuolo? Dateci una porzione tra i parenti di nostro padre.Our father died in the desert, neither was he in the sedition, that was raised against our Lord vnder Core, but he died in his owne sinne: he had no men children. Why is his name taken away out of his familie, because he hath not a sonne? Geue vs possession among the kinne of our father.Pater noster mortuus est in deserto, nec fuit in seditione, quæ concitata est contra Dominum sub Core, sed in peccato suo mortuus est: hic non habuit mares filios. Cur tollitur nomen illius de familia sua, quia non habuit filium ? date nobis possessionem inter cognatos patris nostri. 4And Moses referred their cause to the judgment of the Lord.E Mosè rimise la loro causa al giudizio del Signore,And Moyses referred their cause to the iudgement of our Lord.Retulitque Moyses causam earum ad judicium Domini.

5And the Lord said to him:Il quale gli disse:Who said to him:Qui dixit ad eum: 6The daughters of Salphaad demand a just thing: Give them a possession among their father’s kindred, and let them succeed him in his inheritance.Le figliuole di Salphaad chiedono una cosa giusta: da' loro una porzione tra' parenti del padre loro, e succedano nella eredità di lui.The Daughters of Salphaad require a iust thing: geue them possession among their fathers kinne, and let them succede him in the inheritance.Justam rem postulant filiæ Salphaad: da eis possessionem inter cognatos patris sui, et ei in hæreditatem succedant. 7And to the children of Israel thou shalt speak these things:E a' figliuoli d'Israele dirai:And to the children of Israel thou shalt speake these thinges:Ad filios autem Israël loqueris hæc: 8When a man dieth without a son, his inheritance shall pass to his daughter.Se un uomo muore senza aver figliuoli, l'eredità passerà alle figliuole:When a man dieth without a sonne, his inheritance shal passe to his daughter.Homo cum mortuus fuerit absque filio, ad filiam ejus transibit hæreditas. 9If he have no daughter, his brethren shall succeed him.Se non avrà nissuna figliuola, i suoi fratelli saranno suoi eredi:If he haue no daughter, he shal haue his brethren his successours.Si filiam non habuerit, habebit successores fratres suos. 10And if he have no brethren, you shall give the inheritance to his father’s brethren.E se non avrà nemmen fratelli, darete l'eredità a' fratelli del padre di lui:And if he haue no brethren neither, you shal geue the inheritance to his fathers brethren.Quod si et fratres non fuerint, dabitis hæreditatem fratribus patris ejus. 11But if he have no uncles by the father, the inheritance shall be given to them that are the next akin. And this shall be to the children of Israel sacred by a perpetual law, as the Lord hath commanded Moses.E se neppur avrà delli zii paterni, sarà data l'eredità a' più prossimi, che egli abbia: e sarà questa una legge perpetua pe' figliuoli d'Israele, come ha ordinato il Signore a Mosè.but if he haue no such vncles by the father neither, the inheritance shal be geuen to them thar are the next of kinne. and this shal be to the children of Israel a holie ordinance by a perpetual law, as the Lord hath commanded Moyses.Sin autem nec patruos habuerit, dabitur hæreditas his qui ei proximi sunt. Eritque hoc filiis Israël sanctum lege perpetua, sicut præcepit Dominus Moysi.

12The Lord also said to Moses: Go up into this mountain Abarim, and view from thence the land which I will give to the children of Israel.Disse ancora il Signore a Mosè: Sali su questo monte Abarim, e di là contempla la terra, che io darò a' figliuoli d'Israele:Our Lord also said to Moyses: Goe vp into this mountaine Abarim, and view from thence the Land which I wil geue to the children of Israel.Dixit quoque Dominus ad Moysen: Ascende in montem istum Abarim, et contemplare inde terram, quam daturus sum filiis Israël. 13And when thou shalt have seen it, thou also shalt go to thy people, as thy brother Aaron is gone:E quando l'avrai veduta, andrai anche tu a trovare il tuo popolo, come andò Aronne tuo fratello:and when thou shalt haue seene it, thou also shalt goe to thy people, as thy brothet Aaron is gone:Cumque videris eam, ibis et tu ad populum tuum, sicut ivit frater tuus Aaron: 14Because you offended me in the desert of Sin in the contradiction of the multitude, neither would you sanctify me before them at the waters. These are the waters of contradiction in Cades of the desert of Sin.Perché voi mi disgustaste nel deserto di Sin nella contraddizione della moltitudine, e non voleste glorificarmi dinanzi a lei per mezzo delle acque: queste son le acque di contraddizione presso Cades nel deserto di Sin.because you did offend me in the desert Sin in the contradiction of the multitude, neither would you sanctifie me before them vpon the waters. these are the waters of contradiction in Cades of the desert Sin.quia offendistis me in deserto Sin in contradictione multitudinis, nec sanctificare me voluistis coram ea super aquas. Hæ sunt aquæ contradictionis in Cades deserti Sin. 15And Moses answered him:Mosè gli rispose:To whom Moyses answered:Cui respondit Moyses: 16May the Lord the God of the spirits of all flesh provide a man, that may be over this multitude:Il Signore Dio degli spiriti di tutti gli uomini provveda a questo popolo un capo,Our Lord the God of the spirites of al flesh prouide a man, that may be ouer this multitude:Provideat Dominus Deus spirituum omnis carnis hominem, qui sit super multitudinem hanc: 17And may go out and in before them, and may lead them out, or bring them in: lest the people of the Lord be as sheep without a shepherd.Il quale abbia virtù per andare e stare al loro governo, e per guidarli fuori, e per ricondurgli: affinché non sia il popolo del Signore come un branco di pecore senza pastore.and may goe out and enter in before them, and bring them out, or bring them in: lest the people of our Lord be as sheepe without a pastor.et possit exire et intrare ante eos, et educere eos vel introducere: ne sit populus Domini sicut oves absque pastore.

18And the Lord said to him: take Josue the son of Nun, a man in whom is the Spirit, and put thy hand upon him.E il Signore disse a lui: Prendi Giosuè figliuolo di Nun, nel quale sta il (mio) spirito, e poni sopra di lui la tua mano,And our Lord said to him: Take Iosue the sonne of Nun, a man in whom is the Spirit, and put thy hand vpon him.Dixitque Dominus ad eum: Tolle Josue filium Nun, virum in quo est spiritus, et pone manum tuam super eum. 19And he shall stand before Eleazar the priest and all the multitude:Alla presenza di Eleazaro sommo sacerdote, e di tutta la moltitudine:Who shal stand before Eleazar the priest and al the multitude:Qui stabit coram Eleazaro sacerdote et omni multitudine: 20And thou shalt give him precepts in the sight of all, and part of thy glory, that all the congregation of the children of Israel may hear him.E gli darai i tuoi precetti pubblicamente, e una parte di tua autorità, affinché tutta la sinagoga de' figliuoli d'Israele l'obbedisca.and thou shalt geue him preceptes in the sight of al, and part of thy glorie, that al the synagogue of the children of Israel may heare him.et dabis ei præcepta cunctis videntibus, et partem gloriæ tuæ, ut audiat eum omnis synagoga filiorum Israël. 21If any thing be to be done, Eleazar the priest shall consult the Lord for him. He and all the children of Israel with him, and the rest of the multitude shall go out and go in at his word.Per lui Eleazaro sacerdote consulterà il Signore, quando siavi da far qualche cosa. Secondo la parola di lui egli andrà, o starà, e con lui tutti i figliuoli d'Israele, e tutta la moltitudine.For him, if anie thing be to be done, Eleazar the priest shal consult the Lord. At his word shal he goe out and shal goe in, and al the children of Israel with him, and the rest of the multitude.Pro hoc, si quid agendum erit, Eleazar sacerdos consulet Dominum. Ad verbum ejus egredietur et ingredietur ipse, et omnes filii Israël cum eo, et cetera multitudo. 22Moses did as the Lord had commanded. And, when he had taken Josue, he set him before Eleazar the priest, and all the assembly of the people,Fece Mosè, come aveva ordinalo il Signore. E prese Giosuè, e lo presentò dinanzi ad Eleazaro sommo sacerdote, e a tutta l'adunanza del popolo:Moyses did as out Lord had commanded. And when he had taken Iosue, he sette him before Eleazar the priest, and al the assemblie of the people.Fecit Moyses ut præceperat Dominus: cumque tulisset Josue, statuit eum coram Eleazaro sacerdote et omni frequentia populi. 23And laying his hands on his head, he repeated all things that the Lord had commanded.E imposte le mani sul capo di lui, spiegò tutti gli ordini dati dal Signore.And imposing his handes on his head, he repeted al thinges that our Lord had commanded.Et impositis capiti ejus manibus, cuncta replicavit quæ mandaverat Dominus.
