Numbers 36

Inheritance by Marriage

1

 aAnd the headsh7218 of the fathers'h1 households of the familyh4940 of the sonsh1121 of Gileadh1568, the sonh1121 of Machirh4353, the sonh1121 of Manassehh4519, of the familiesh4940 of the sonsh1121 of Josephh3130, cameh7126 nearh7126 and spokeh1696 beforeh6440 Mosesh4872 and beforeh6440 the leadersh5387a, the headsh7218 of the fathers'h1 households of the sonsh1121 of Israelh3478,

2

and they saidh559, "The LORDh3068 commandedh6680 my lordh113 to giveh5414 the landh776 by loth1486 to the sonsh1121 of Israelh3478 as an inheritanceh5159, and my lordh113  awas commandedh6680 by the LORDh3068 to giveh5414 the inheritanceh5159 of Zelophehadh6765 our brotherh251 to his daughtersh1323.

3

"But if they  1marryh1961h802 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.

4

"Whenh518 the  ajubileeh3104 of the sonsh1121 of Israelh3478  1comesh1961, 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."

5

Then Mosesh4872 commandedh6680 the sonsh1121 of Israelh3478 accordingh5921 to the  1wordh6310 of the LORDh3068, sayingh559, "The tribeh4294 of the sonsh1121 of Josephh3130 are righth3653a in their statementsh1696.

6

aThish2088 is  1whath1697h834 the LORDh3068 has commandedh6680 concerning the daughtersh1323 of Zelophehadh6765, sayingh559, `Let them marryh1961h802  2whom they wishh2896ah5869; onlyh389 they must marryh1961h802 within the familyh4940 of the tribeh4294 of their fatherh1.'

7

"Thus  anoh3808 inheritanceh5159 of the sonsh1121 of Israelh3478 shall  1be transferredh5437 from tribeh4294 to tribeh4294, for the sonsh1121 of Israelh3478 shall eachh376  2holdh1692 to the inheritanceh5159 of the tribeh4294 of his fathersh1.

8

aEveryh3605 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.

9

"Thus noh3808 inheritanceh5159 shall  1be transferredh5437 from one tribeh4294 to anotherh312 tribeh4294, for the tribesh4294 of the sonsh1121 of Israelh3478 shall eachh376  2holdh1692 to his own inheritanceh5159."

10

Justh3512c as the LORDh3068 had commandedh6680 Mosesh4872, soh3651 the daughtersh1323 of Zelophehadh6765 didh6213a:

11

 aMahlahh4244, Tirzahh8656, Hoglahh2295, Milcahh4435 and Noahh5270, the daughtersh1323 of Zelophehadh6765 marriedh802 their uncles'h1730 sonsh1121.

12

They marriedh802 those from the familiesh4940 of the sonsh1121 of Manassehh4519 the sonh1121 of Josephh3130, and their inheritanceh5159  1remainedh1961 with the tribeh4294 of the familyh4940 of their fatherh1.

13

 aTheseh428 are the commandmentsh4687 and the ordinancesh4941 whichh834 the LORDh3068 commandedh6680 to the sonsh1121 of Israelh3478 throughh3027 Mosesh4872 in the plainsh6160 of Moabh4124 by the Jordanh3383 opposite Jerichoh3405.
