Numbers 36:2-12

2and they saidH559, “The LordH3068 commandedH6680 my lordH113 to giveH5414 the landH776 by lotH1486 to the sonsH1121 of IsraelH3478 as an inheritanceH5159, and my lordH113 1was commandedH6680 by the LordH3068 to giveH5414 the inheritanceH5159 of ZelophehadH6765 our brotherH251 to his daughtersH1323. 3But if they 2marryH1961H802 oneH259 of the sonsH1121 of the other tribesH7626 of the sonsH1121 of IsraelH3478, their inheritanceH5159 will be withdrawnH1639 from the inheritanceH5159 of our fathersH1 and will be addedH3254 to the inheritanceH5159 of the tribeH4294 to whichH834 they belongH1961; thus it will be withdrawnH1639 from our allottedH1486 inheritanceH5159. 4WhenH518 the 3jubileeH3104 of the sonsH1121 of IsraelH3478 4comesH1961, then their inheritanceH5159 will be addedH3254 to the inheritanceH5159 of the tribeH4294 to whichH834 they belongH1961; so their inheritanceH5159 will be withdrawnH1639 from the inheritanceH5159 of the tribeH4294 of our fathersH1.”

5Then MosesH4872 commandedH6680 the sonsH1121 of IsraelH3478 accordingH5921 to the 5wordH6310 of the LordH3068, sayingH559, “The tribeH4294 of the sonsH1121 of JosephH3130 are rightH3653 in their statementsH1696. 66ThisH2088 is 7whatH1697H834 the LordH3068 has commandedH6680 concerning the daughtersH1323 of ZelophehadH6765, sayingH559, ‘Let them marryH1961H802 8whom they wishH2896H5869; onlyH389 they must marryH1961H802 within the familyH4940 of the tribeH4294 of their fatherH1.’ 7Thus 9noH3808 inheritanceH5159 of the sonsH1121 of IsraelH3478 shall 10be transferredH5437 from tribeH4294 to tribeH4294, for the sonsH1121 of IsraelH3478 shall eachH376 11holdH1692 to the inheritanceH5159 of the tribeH4294 of his fathersH1. 812EveryH3605 daughterH1323 who comesH3423 into possessionH3423 of an inheritanceH5159 of anyH4480 tribeH4294 of the sonsH1121 of IsraelH3478 shall be wifeH802 to oneH259 of the familyH4940 of the tribeH4294 of her fatherH1, soH4616 that the sonsH1121 of IsraelH3478 eachH376 may possessH3423 the inheritanceH5159 of his fathersH1. 9Thus noH3808 inheritanceH5159 shall 13be transferredH5437 from one tribeH4294 to anotherH312 tribeH4294, for the tribesH4294 of the sonsH1121 of IsraelH3478 shall eachH376 14holdH1692 to his own inheritanceH5159.”

10JustH3512 as the LordH3068 had commandedH6680 MosesH4872, soH3651 the daughtersH1323 of ZelophehadH6765 didH6213: 1115MahlahH4244, TirzahH8656, HoglahH2295, MilcahH4435 and NoahH5270, the daughtersH1323 of ZelophehadH6765 marriedH802 their uncles’H1730 sonsH1121. 12They marriedH802 those from the familiesH4940 of the sonsH1121 of ManassehH4519 the sonH1121 of JosephH3130, and their inheritanceH5159 16remainedH1961 with the tribeH4294 of the familyH4940 of their fatherH1.
