1 Then came * h7126 h8799 the daughters * h1323 of Zelophehad * h6765, the son * h1121 of Hepher * h2660, the son * h1121 of Gilead * h1568, the son * h1121 of Machir * h4353, the son * h1121 of Manasseh * h4519, of the families * h4940 of Manasseh * h4519 the son * h1121 of Joseph * h3130: and these are the names * h8034 of his daughters * h1323; Mahlah * h4244, Noah * h5270, and Hoglah * h2295, and Milcah * h4435, and Tirzah * h8656.
2 And they stood * h5975 h8799 before * h6440 Moses * h4872, and before * h6440 Eleazar * h499 the priest * h3548, and before * h6440 the princes * h5387 and all the congregation * h5712, by the door * h6607 of the tabernacle * h168 of the congregation * h4150, saying * h559 h8800,
3 Our father * h1 died * h4191 h8804 in the wilderness * h4057, and he was not in * h8432 the company * h5712 of them that gathered themselves together * h3259 h8737 against the LORD * h3068 in the company * h5712 of Korah * h7141; but died * h4191 h8804 in his own sin * h2399, and had no sons * h1121.
4 Why should the name * h8034 of our father * h1 be done away * h1639 h8735 from among * h8432 his family * h4940, because he hath no son * h1121? Give * h5414 h8798 unto us therefore a possession * h272 among * h8432 the brethren * h251 of our father * h1. done...: Heb. diminished
5 And Moses * h4872 brought * h7126 h8686 their cause * h4941 before * h6440 the LORD * h3068.
6 And the LORD * h3068 spake * h559 h8799 unto Moses * h4872, saying * h559 h8800,
7 The daughters * h1323 of Zelophehad * h6765 speak * h1696 h8802 right * h3651: thou shalt surely * h5414 h8800 give * h5414 h8799 them a possession * h272 of an inheritance * h5159 among * h8432 their father's * h1 brethren * h251; and thou shalt cause the inheritance * h5159 of their father * h1 to pass * h5674 h8689 unto them.
8 And thou shalt speak * h1696 h8762 unto the children * h1121 of Israel * h3478, saying * h559 h8800, If a man * h376 die * h4191 h8799, and have no son * h1121, then ye shall cause his inheritance * h5159 to pass * h5674 h8689 unto his daughter * h1323.
9 And if he have no daughter * h1323, then ye shall give * h5414 h8804 his inheritance * h5159 unto his brethren * h251.
10 And if he have no brethren * h251, then ye shall give * h5414 h8804 his inheritance * h5159 unto his father's * h1 brethren * h251.
11 And if his father * h1 have no brethren * h251, then ye shall give * h5414 h8804 his inheritance * h5159 unto his kinsman * h7607 that is next * h7138 to him of his family * h4940, and he shall possess * h3423 h8804 it: and it shall be unto the children * h1121 of Israel * h3478 a statute * h2708 of judgment * h4941, as the LORD * h3068 commanded * h6680 h8765 Moses * h4872.
12 And the LORD * h3068 said * h559 h8799 unto Moses * h4872, Get thee up * h5927 h8798 into this mount * h2022 Abarim * h5682, and see * h7200 h8798 the land * h776 which I have given * h5414 h8804 unto the children * h1121 of Israel * h3478.
13 And when thou hast seen * h7200 h8804 it, thou also shalt be gathered * h622 h8738 unto thy people * h5971, as Aaron * h175 thy brother * h251 was gathered * h622 h8738.
14 For ye rebelled * h4784 h8804 against my commandment * h6310 in the desert * h4057 of Zin * h6790, in the strife * h4808 of the congregation * h5712, to sanctify * h6942 h8687 me at the water * h4325 before their eyes * h5869: that is the water * h4325 of Meribah * h4809 in Kadesh * h6946 in the wilderness * h4057 of Zin * h6790.
15 And Moses * h4872 spake * h1696 h8762 unto the LORD * h3068, saying * h559 h8800,
16 Let the LORD * h3068, the God * h430 of the spirits * h7307 of all flesh * h1320, set * h6485 h8799 a man * h376 over the congregation * h5712,
17 Which may go out * h3318 h8799 before * h6440 them, and which may go in * h935 h8799 before * h6440 them, and which may lead them out * h3318 h8686, and which may bring them in * h935 h8686; that the congregation * h5712 of the LORD * h3068 be not as sheep * h6629 which have no shepherd * h7462 h8802.
18 And the LORD * h3068 said * h559 h8799 unto Moses * h4872, Take * h3947 h8798 thee Joshua * h3091 the son * h1121 of Nun * h5126, a man * h376 in whom is the spirit * h7307, and lay * h5564 h8804 thine hand * h3027 upon him;
19 And set * h5975 h8689 him before * h6440 Eleazar * h499 the priest * h3548, and before * h6440 all the congregation * h5712; and give him a charge * h6680 h8765 in their sight * h5869.
20 And thou shalt put * h5414 h8804 some of thine honour * h1935 upon him, that all the congregation * h5712 of the children * h1121 of Israel * h3478 may be obedient * h8085 h8799.
21 And he shall stand * h5975 h8799 before * h6440 Eleazar * h499 the priest * h3548, who shall ask * h7592 h8804 counsel for him after the judgment * h4941 of Urim * h224 before * h6440 the LORD * h3068: at his word * h6310 shall they go out * h3318 h8799, and at his word * h6310 they shall come in * h935 h8799, both he, and all the children * h1121 of Israel * h3478 with him, even all the congregation * h5712.
22 And Moses * h4872 did * h6213 h8799 as the LORD * h3068 commanded * h6680 h8765 him: and he took * h3947 h8799 Joshua * h3091, and set * h5975 h8686 him before * h6440 Eleazar * h499 the priest * h3548, and before * h6440 all the congregation * h5712:
23 And he laid * h5564 h8799 his hands * h3027 upon him, and gave him a charge * h6680 h8762, as the LORD * h3068 commanded * h1696 h8765 by the hand * h3027 of Moses * h4872.
