Joshua 17:1-6

New English Translation

17 The tribe of Manasseh, Joseph’s firstborn son, was also allotted land.^[a] The descendants of Makir, Manasseh’s firstborn and the father of Gilead, received land, for they were warriors.^[b] They were assigned Gilead and Bashan.^{[c] 2} The rest of Manasseh’s descendants were also assigned land^[d] by their clans, including the descendants of Abiezer, Helek, Asriel, Shechem, Hepher, and Shemida. These are the male descendants of Manasseh son of Joseph by their clans.

³ Now Zelophehad son of Hepher, son of Gilead, son of Makir, son of Manasseh, had no sons, only daughters. These are the names of his daughters: Mahlah, Noah, Hoglah, Milcah, and Tirzah. ⁴ They went before Eleazar the priest, Joshua son of Nun, and the leaders and said, “The Lord told Moses to assign us land among our relatives.”^[e] So Joshua^[f] assigned them land among their uncles, as the Lord had commanded.^{[g] 5} Manasseh was allotted ten shares of land,^[h] in addition to the land of Gilead and Bashan east of the Jordan, ⁶ for the daughters of Manasseh were assigned land among his sons. The land of Gilead belonged to the rest of the descendants of Manasseh.
