1. And the heads[H7218] of the fathers[H1]' houses of the family[H4940] of the children[H1121] of Gilead[H1568], the son[H1121] of Machir[H4353], the son[H1121] of Manasseh[H4519], of the families[H4940] of the sons[H1121] of Joseph[H3130], came near[H7126], and spake[H1696] before[H6440] Moses[H4872], and before[H6440] the princes[H5387], the heads[H7218] of the fathers[H1]' houses of the children[H1121] of Israel[H3478]:
2. and they said[H559], Jehovah[H3068] commanded[H6680] my lord[H3068] to give[H5414] the land[H776] for inheritance[H5159] by lot[H1486] to the children[H1121] of Israel[H3478]: and my lord[H113] was commanded[H6680] by Jehovah[H113] to give[H5414] the inheritance[H5159] of Zelophehad[H6765] our brother[H251] unto his daughters[H1323].
3. And if they be married[H802] to any[H259] of the sons[H1121] of the other tribes[H7626] of the children[H1121] of Israel[H3478], then will their inheritance[H5159] be taken[H1639] away from the inheritance[H5159] of our fathers[H1], and will be added[H3254] to the inheritance[H5159] of the tribe[H4294] whereunto they shall belong[H1639]: so will it be taken away from the lot[H1486] of our inheritance[H5159].
4. And when the jubilee[H3104] of the children[H1121] of Israel[H3478] shall be[H5159], then will their inheritance be added[H3254] unto the inheritance[H5159] of the tribe[H4294] whereunto they shall belong[H5159]: so will their inheritance be taken away[H1639] from the inheritance[H5159] of the tribe[H4294] of our fathers[H1].
5. And Moses[H4872] commanded[H6680] the children[H1121] of Israel[H3478] according to the word[H6310] of Jehovah[H3068], saying[H559], The tribe[H4294] of the sons[H1121] of Joseph[H3130] speaketh right[H1696].
6. This is the thing[H1697] which Jehovah[H3068] doth command[H6680] concerning the daughters[H1323] of Zelophehad[H6765], saying[H559], Let them be married[H802] to whom they think[H5869] best[H2896]; only into the family[H4940] of the tribe[H4294] of their father[H1] shall they be married[H802].
7. So shall no inheritance[H5159] of the children[H1121] of Israel[H3478] remove[H5437] from tribe[H4294] to tribe[H4294]; for the children[H1121] of Israel[H3478] shall cleave[H1692] every one[H376] to the inheritance[H5159] of the tribe[H4294] of his fathers[H1].
8. And every daughter[H1323], that possesseth[H3423] an inheritance[H5159] in any tribe[H4294] of the children[H1121] of Israel[H3478], shall be wife[H802] unto one[H259] of the family[H4940] of the tribe[H4294] of her father[H1], that the children[H1121] of Israel[H3478] may possess[H3423] every man[H376] the inheritance[H5159] of his fathers[H1].
9. So shall no inheritance[H5159] remove[H5437] from one tribe[H4294] to another[H312] tribe[H4294]; for the tribes[H4294] of the children[H1121] of Israel[H3478] shall cleave[H1692] every one[H376] to his own inheritance[H5159].
10. Even as Jehovah[H3068] commanded[H6680] Moses[H4872], so did[H6213] the daughters[H1323] of Zelophehad[H6765]:
11. for Mahlah[H4244], Tirzah[H8656], and Hoglah[H2295], and Milcah[H4435], and Noah[H5270], the daughters[H1323] of Zelophehad[H6765], were married[H802] unto their father[H1730]'s brothers[H1121]' sons.
12. They were married[H802] into the families[H4940] of the sons[H1121] of Manasseh[H4519] the son[H1121] of Joseph[H3130]; and their inheritance[H5159] remained in the tribe[H4294] of the family[H4940] of their father[H1].
13. These are the commandments[H4687] and the ordinances[H4941] which Jehovah[H3068] commanded[H6680] by[H3027] Moses[H4872] unto the children[H1121] of Israel[H3478] in the plains[H6160] of Moab[H4124] by the Jordan[H3383] at Jericho[H3405].
