Book 04 Numbers Chapter 036

 

036:001And 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 spake before
Moses, and before the princes, the chief fathers of the
children of Israel:

 

036:002And 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 unto his daughters.

 

036:003And if they be married to any of the sons of the other tribes
of the children of Israel, then shall their inheritance be
taken from the inheritance of our fathers, and shall be put to
the inheritance of the tribe whereunto they are received: so
shall it be taken from the lot of our inheritance.

 

036:004And when the jubile of the children of Israel shall be, then
shall their inheritance be put unto the inheritance of the
tribe whereunto they are received: so shall their inheritance
be taken away from the inheritance of the tribe of our
fathers.

 

036:005And Moses commanded the children of Israel according to the
word of the LORD, saying, The tribe of the sons of Joseph hath
said well.

 

036:006This 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.

 

036:007So 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.

 

036:008And every daughter, that possesseth an inheritance in any
tribe of the children of Israel, shall be wife unto one of the
family of the tribe of her father, that the children of Israel
may enjoy every man the inheritance of his fathers.

 

036:009Neither 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.

 

036:010Even as the LORD commanded Moses, so did the daughters of
Zelophehad:

 

036:011For Mahlah, Tirzah, and Hoglah, and Milcah, and Noah, the
daughters of Zelophehad, were married unto their father's
brothers' sons:

 

036:012And 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.

 

036:013These are the commandments and the judgments, which the LORD
commanded by the hand of Moses unto the children of Israel in
the plains of Moab by Jordan near Jericho.
