民数记 36
Chinese Contemporary Bible (Simplified)
女子继承产业的律例
36 基列是约瑟之子玛拿西的孙子，玛吉的儿子。他宗族中的各族长来见摩西和做以色列人首领的各族长，说： 2 “耶和华曾吩咐我主用抽签的方式把土地分给以色列人，还吩咐我主将我们兄弟西罗非哈的产业分给他的女儿们。 3 但如果她们嫁给其他支派的人，从我们祖业中分给她们的产业就会归入她们夫家的支派。这样的话，我们抽签分到的土地就会减少。 4 到了以色列人的禧年，这些女儿的产业就会归给她们丈夫的支派，我们支派的祖业就会失去她们那份产业。”
5 摩西照耶和华的话吩咐以色列人说：“约瑟支派的人说的对。 6 关于西罗非哈的女儿们，耶和华说她们可以自由嫁人，但必须嫁给本支派的人。 7 以色列人的产业不可从一个支派转到另一个支派，各支派必须守住本支派的祖业。 8 继承了产业的女子必须嫁给本支派的人，以便以色列人都能守住自己的祖业。 9 以色列人的产业不可从一个支派转到另一个支派，各支派必须守住本支派的产业。”
10 于是，西罗非哈的女儿们遵行了耶和华对摩西的吩咐。 11 玛拉、得撒、曷拉、密迦和挪阿都嫁给了她们叔伯的儿子， 12 即约瑟之子玛拿西支派的人。这样，她们的产业仍留在本支派中。
13 以上是在耶利哥对面、约旦河边的摩押平原，耶和华借摩西颁布给以色列人的命令和律例。

女继承人之结婚条例
36 约瑟后裔的家族中，有玛拿西的孙子、玛吉的儿子基列的子孙，他们族中的首领都前来，在摩西面前，在各家族作首领的领袖面前，和在以色列人面前说： 2 “耶和华曾经吩咐我主要凭抽签把地分给以色列人为业；我主也受了耶和华的吩咐，要把我们兄弟西罗非哈的产业分给他的众女儿。 3 但是，如果她们嫁给以色列中别的支派的人，她们的产业就必从我们祖宗的产业中被取去，加在他们丈夫支派的产业上；这样，我们抽签所得的产业就失去了。 4 到了以色列人的禧年，她们的产业就要加在她们丈夫支派的产业上；这样，她们的产业就要从我们祖宗支派的产业中被拿去了。”
5 摩西照着耶和华的话，吩咐以色列说：“约瑟支派的人说得对。 6 论到西罗非哈的众女儿，耶和华吩咐的话是这样：‘她们可以随意嫁自己喜欢的人，但是，只能嫁给同族同支派的人作妻子。 7 这样，以色列人的产业，就不会从一个支派转到另一个支派去；因为以色列人要各自守住自己祖宗支派的产业。 8 从以色列支派中得了产业的女子，要嫁给自己祖宗支派的人作妻子，好使以色列人可以各自承受自己祖宗的产业。 9 这样，以色列人的产业，就不会从一个支派转到另一个支派去；因为以色列人的支派要各自守住自己的产业。’”
10 耶和华怎样吩咐摩西，西罗非哈的众女儿就怎样行。 11 西罗非哈的女儿玛拉、得撒、曷拉、密迦、挪阿，都嫁给了自己叔伯的儿子作妻子。 12 她们嫁给了约瑟的儿子玛拿西子孙家族的人作妻子；她们的产业仍然留在自己的支派中。 13 这是耶和华在耶利哥对面，约旦河边的摩押平原，借着摩西向以色列人吩咐的命令和典章。
Numbers 36
New King James Version
Marriage of Female Heirs
36 Now the chief fathers of the families of the (A)children of Gilead the son of Machir, the son of Manasseh, of the families of the sons of Joseph, came near and (B)spoke before Moses and before the leaders, the chief fathers of the children of Israel. 2 And they said: (C)“The Lord commanded my lord Moses to give the land as an inheritance by lot to the children of Israel, and (D)my lord was commanded by the Lord to give the inheritance of our brother Zelophehad to his daughters. 3 Now if they are married to any of the sons of the other tribes of the children of Israel, then their inheritance will be (E)taken from the inheritance of our fathers, and it will be added to the inheritance of the tribe into which they marry; so it will be taken from the lot of our inheritance. 4 And when (F)the Jubilee of the children of Israel comes, then their inheritance will be added to the inheritance of the tribe into which they marry; so their inheritance will be taken away from the inheritance of the tribe of our fathers.”
5 Then Moses commanded the children of Israel according to the word of the Lord, saying: (G)“What the tribe of the sons of Joseph speaks is right. 6 This is what the Lord commands concerning the daughters of Zelophehad, saying, ‘Let them [a]marry whom they think best, (H)but they may marry only within the family of their father’s tribe.’ 7 So the inheritance of the children of Israel shall not change hands from tribe to tribe, for every one of the children of Israel shall (I)keep the inheritance of the tribe of his fathers. 8 And (J)every daughter who possesses an inheritance in any tribe of the children of Israel shall be the wife of one of the family of her father’s tribe, so that the children of Israel each may possess the inheritance of his fathers. 9 Thus no inheritance shall change hands from one tribe to another, but every tribe of the children of Israel shall keep its own inheritance.”
10 Just as the Lord commanded Moses, so did the daughters of Zelophehad; 11 (K)for Mahlah, Tirzah, Hoglah, Milcah, and Noah, the daughters of Zelophehad, were married to the sons of their father’s brothers. 12 They were married into the families of the children of Manasseh the son of Joseph, and their inheritance remained in the tribe of their father’s family.
13 These are the commandments and the judgments which the Lord commanded the children of Israel by the hand of Moses (L)in the plains of Moab by the Jordan, across from Jericho.
