Now
the daughters of Zelophehad son of Hepher, the son of Gilead, the son of Machir, the son of Manasseh, belonged
to
the clans
of Manasseh son of Joseph .
These were
the names of his daughters: Mahlah, Noah, Hoglah, Milcah, and Tirzah. They
approached
Then
drew
near
the daughters of Zelophehad ,
the
son of Hepher, the son of Gilead, the son of Machir, the son of Manasseh, of
the families
of Manasseh the
son of Joseph ;
and
these are
the names of his daughters: Mahlah, Noah, and
Hoglah, and
Milcah, and Tirzah.
the
entrance
to
the
Tent
of
Meeting,
stood before Moses, Eleazar the priest, the leaders,
and the whole
congregation, and
said
,
And
they
stood before Moses, and
before
Eleazar the priest, and
before
the princes
and all
the congregation, at
the
door
of
the
tent
of
meeting
, saying,
“
Our father died in the wilderness, but
he was not among the followers
of Korah
who
gathered together against the LORD.
Instead,
he died because
of
his own sin ,
and he had no sons.
Our father died in the wilderness, and
he was not among the company
of them
that
gathered themselves
together against Jehovah
in
the company
of
Korah:
but
he died in
his own sin ;
and he had no sons.
Why should the name of our father disappear
from his clan
because he had no sons
? Give us property
among our father’s
brothers
. ”
Why should the name of our father be
taken
away
from among
his family,
because he had no son
? Give unto
us a
possession
among the
brethren
of
our father
.
So
Moses brought their case
before the
LORD,
And
Moses brought their cause
before Jehovah.
and the
LORD
answered
him
,
And Jehovah
spake
unto
Moses
, saying,
“
The daughters of Zelophehad speak correctly.
You
certainly
must
give them property
as
an inheritance among their father’s
brothers,
and transfer
their
father’s
inheritance to them.
The daughters of Zelophehad speak right:
thou
shalt
surely
give them a
possession
of
an inheritance among their father's
brethren;
and thou
shalt
cause
the
inheritance of
their
father
to pass
unto
them.
Furthermore,
you
shall
say
to
the Israelites
, ‘
If a man dies
and leaves
no son, you
are
to
transfer
his inheritance to his daughter.
And
thou
shalt
speak
unto
the children
of
Israel
, saying,
If a man die,
and have
no son, then
ye
shall
cause
his inheritance to pass
unto
his daughter.
If he has
no daughter, give his inheritance to
his brothers
.
And
if he have
no daughter, then
ye
shall
give his inheritance unto
his brethren
.
If he has
no brothers
, give his inheritance to
his father’s
brothers
.
And
if he have
no brethren
, then
ye
shall
give his inheritance unto
his father's
brethren
.
And if his father has
no brothers
, give his inheritance to
the
next of kin
from
his clan
, that
he may
take
possession
of
it .
This
is
to
be a statutory
ordinance for
the
Israelites
, as the
LORD
has
commanded Moses. ’”
And if his father have
no brethren
, then
ye
shall
give his inheritance unto
his
kinsman
that
is
next to
him
of his family
, and
he shall
possess
it :
and
it
shall
be unto
the
children
of
Israel
a statute
`and'
ordinance, as Jehovah
commanded Moses.
Then
the
LORD
said to
Moses, “Go
up this mountain of the
Abarim range
and see
the land that
I have given the Israelites
.
And
Jehovah
said unto
Moses, Get
thee
up into
this mountain of Abarim ,
and behold
the land which
I have given unto
the children
of
Israel
.
After
you
have
seen it, you
too
will
be gathered to
your
people, as your
brother
Aaron was;
And
when
thou
hast
seen it, thou
also
shalt
be gathered unto
thy
people, as Aaron thy
brother
was gathered
;
for
when
the
congregation
contended
in the Wilderness of Zin, both
of you
rebelled
against
My
command
to show
My
holiness
in
their
sight
regarding
the waters. ”
Those
were
the waters of Meribah in
Kadesh ,
in the Wilderness of Zin.
because
ye
rebelled
against
my
word
in the wilderness of Zin, in
the
strife
of the
congregation,
to sanctify
me
at
the waters before
their
eyes
. (These
are
the waters of Meribah of
Kadesh in the wilderness of Zin. )
So
Moses appealed
to
the
LORD
,
And
Moses spake
unto
Jehovah
, saying,
“May
the
LORD
, the God of the spirits of all flesh, appoint a man over the congregation
Let
Jehovah
, the God of the spirits of all flesh, appoint a man over the congregation ,
who will
go out and come in before them, and who will
lead them out and bring them in ,
so
that the congregation of the
LORD
will
not
be like
sheep without
a
shepherd. ”
who may
go out before
them,
and who
may
come in before them, and who may
lead them out ,
and who
may
bring them in ;
that the congregation of Jehovah
be not
as
sheep which
have
no
shepherd.
And the
LORD
replied
to
Moses, “
Take Joshua son of Nun, a man with
the Spirit in
him
, and lay your
hands
on
him .
And Jehovah
said
unto
Moses, Take thee
Joshua the
son of Nun, a man in
whom
is
the Spirit, and lay thy
hand
upon
him ;
Have
him stand
before Eleazar the priest and the whole
congregation ,
and commission
him in their sight.
and
set
him before Eleazar the priest ,
and before
all
the congregation ;
and give
him a
charge
in their sight.
Confer
on
him
some
of your
authority
, so
that the whole
congregation of Israel will
obey him
.
And
thou
shalt
put
of thine
honor
upon
him
, that all
the congregation of the
children
of
Israel may
obey.
He shall stand before Eleazar the priest, who will
seek
counsel
for him before
the
LORD
by the judgment of the Urim .
At his command
, he and all the Israelites
with him —
the entire
congregation —will
go
out
and
come
in
. ”
And
he shall stand before Eleazar the priest, who shall
inquire
for him by the judgment of the Urim before
Jehovah:
at his word
shall
they
go
out
, and
at
his
word
they
shall
come
in,
both
he ,
and all the children
of
Israel
with him ,
even
all
the congregation.
Moses did as the
LORD
had
commanded him .
He took Joshua, had
him stand
before Eleazar the priest and the whole
congregation ,
And
Moses did as Jehovah
commanded him ;
and
he took Joshua, and
set
him before Eleazar the priest ,
and before
all
the congregation :
and laid his hands on
him and commissioned
him, as the
LORD
had
instructed
through
Moses.
and he
laid his hands upon
him ,
and gave
him a
charge
, as Jehovah
spake
by
Moses.
