1 And the chief fathers of the families of the children of
Gilead, the son of Machir, the son of Manasseh, of the families
of the sons of Joseph, came near, and spoke before Moses, and
before the princes, the chief fathers of the children of
Israel:
2 And they said, The LORD commanded my lord to give the land
for an inheritance by lot to the children of Israel: and my
lord was commanded by the LORD to give the inheritance of
Zelophehad our brother to his daughters.
3 And if they shall be married to any of the sons of the
[other] tribes of the children of Israel, then will their
inheritance be taken from the inheritance of our fathers, and
will be put to the inheritance of the tribe into which they are
received: so it will be taken from the lot of our inheritance.
4 And when the jubilee of the children of Israel shall be,
then will their inheritance be put to the inheritance of the
tribe into which they are received: so shall their inheritance
be taken away from the inheritance of the tribe of our fathers.
5 And Moses commanded the children of Israel according to the
word of the LORD, saying, The tribe of the sons of Joseph hath
said well.
6 This [is] the thing which the LORD doth command concerning
the daughters of Zelophehad, saying, Let them marry to whom
they think best; only to the family of the tribe of their
father shall they marry.
7 So shall not the inheritance of the children of Israel
remove from tribe to tribe: for every one of the children of
Israel shall keep himself to the inheritance of the tribe of
his fathers.
8 And every daughter, that possesseth an inheritance in any
tribe of the children of Israel, shall be wife to one of the
family of the tribe of her father, that the children of Israel
may enjoy every man the inheritance of his fathers.
9 Neither shall the inheritance remove from [one] tribe to
another tribe; but every one of the tribes of the children of
Israel shall keep himself to his own inheritance.
10 Even as the LORD commanded Moses, so did the daughters of
Zelophehad:
12 [And] they were married into the families of the sons of
Manasseh the son of Joseph, and their inheritance remained in
the tribe of the family of their father.
13 These [are] the commandments and the judgments, which the
LORD commanded by the hand of Moses to the children of Israel
in the plains of Moab by Jordan [near] Jericho.
