1 And the chief7218 fathers1 of the families4940 of the children1121 of Gilead,1568 the son1121 of Machir,4353 the son1121 of Manasseh,4519 of the families4480 4940 of the sons1121 of Joseph,3130 came near,7126 and spoke1696 before6440 Moses,4872 and before6440 the princes,5387 the chief7218 fathers1 of the children1121 of Israel: 3478

2 And they said,559 The LORD3068 commanded6680 853 my lord113 to give5414 853 the land776 for an inheritance5159 by lot1486 to the children1121 of Israel:3478 and my lord113 was commanded6680 by the LORD3068 to give5414 853 the inheritance5159 of Zelophehad6765 our brother251 unto his daughters.1323

3 And if they be married1961 802 to any259 of the sons4480 1121 of the other tribes7626 of the children1121 of Israel,3478 then shall their inheritance5159 be taken1639 from the inheritance4480 5159 of our fathers,1 and shall be put3254 to5921 the inheritance5159 of the tribe4294 whereunto834 they are received:1961 so shall it be taken1639 from the lot4480 1486 of our inheritance.5159

4 And when518 the jubilee3104 of the children1121 of Israel3478 shall be,1961 then shall their inheritance5159 be put3254 unto5921 the inheritance5159 of the tribe4294 whereunto834 they are received:1961 so shall their inheritance5159 be taken away1639 from the inheritance4480 5159 of the tribe4294 of our fathers.1

5 And Moses4872 commanded6680 853 the children1121 of Israel3478 according to5921 the word6310 of the LORD,3068 saying,559 The tribe4294 of the sons1121 of Joseph3130 hath said1696 well.3651

6 This2088 is the thing1697 which834 the LORD3068 doth command6680 concerning the daughters1323 of Zelophehad,6765 saying,559 Let them marry1961 802 to whom they think best;2896 5869 only389 to the family4940 of the tribe4294 of their father1 shall they marry.1961 802

7 So shall not3808 the inheritance5159 of the children1121 of Israel3478 remove5437 from tribe4480 4294 to413 tribe:4294 for3588 every one376 of the children1121 of Israel3478 shall keep1692 himself to the inheritance5159 of the tribe4294 of his fathers.1

8 And every3605 daughter,1323 that possesseth3423 an inheritance5159 in any tribe4480 4294 of the children1121 of Israel,3478 shall be1961 wife802 unto one259 of the family4480 4940 of the tribe4294 of her father,1 that4616 the children1121 of Israel3478 may enjoy3423 every man376 the inheritance5159 of his fathers.1

9 Neither3808 shall the inheritance5159 remove5437 from one tribe4480 4294 to another312 tribe;4294 but3588 every one376 of the tribes4294 of the children1121 of Israel3478 shall keep1692 himself to his own inheritance.5159

10 Even as834 the LORD3068 commanded6680 853 Moses,4872 so3651 did6213 the daughters1323 of Zelophehad: 6765

11 For Mahlah,4244 Tirzah,8656 and Hoglah,2295 and Milcah,4435 and Noah,5270 the daughters1323 of Zelophehad,6765 were married1961 802 unto their father's brothers'1730 sons: 1121

12 And they were married1961 802 into the families4480 4940 of the sons1121 of Manasseh4519 the son1121 of Joseph,3130 and their inheritance5159 remained1961 in5921 the tribe4294 of the family4940 of their father.1

13 These428 are the commandments4687 and the judgments,4941 which834 the LORD3068 commanded6680 by the hand3027 of Moses4872 unto413 the children1121 of Israel3478 in the plains6160 of Moab4124 by5921 Jordan3383 near Jericho.3405
