Números 36
Dios Habla Hoy
Herencia de las mujeres
36 Los jefes de familia de los clanes de Galaad, descendiente directo de Maquir, Manasés y José, fueron a ver a Moisés y a los jefes de familia israelitas, y les dijeron:
2 —El Señor ordenó que tú, Moisés, repartieras por suertes entre los israelitas el territorio que le ha de tocar a cada uno, y también te ordenó que la parte que correspondía a Selofhad, que era de nuestra familia, se la dieras a sus hijas. 3 Pero si ellas se casan con hombres de otra tribu israelita, la tierra que les tocó a ellas dejará de pertenecer a nuestra tribu y pasará a ser de la tribu de aquellos con quienes ellas se casen. Así se nos irá quitando parte de lo que nos tocó en suerte. 4 Luego, cuando llegue el año de liberación en Israel, la tierra de ellas pasará a ser definitivamente de aquella otra tribu y dejará de pertenecer a la nuestra.
5 Entonces Moisés, según las instrucciones que le dio el Señor, ordenó lo siguiente a los israelitas:
—Los hombres de la tribu de José tienen razón. 6 El Señor permitirá que las hijas de Selofhad se casen con quien quieran, con tal de que sea alguien de un clan de la tribu a la que ellas pertenecen por parte de padre. 7 La tierra que a cada uno en Israel le ha tocado no debe pasar de una tribu a otra; todo israelita debe conservar su herencia en su propia tribu. 8 Si una mujer de cualquier tribu hereda tierras, deberá casarse con un hombre de un clan de su misma tribu. Así cada israelita conservará la herencia recibida de sus padres. 9 Ninguna herencia debe pasar de una tribu a otra. Cada tribu de Israel debe conservar el territorio que le tocó.
10-11 Entonces Mahlá, Tirsá, Hoglá, Milcá y Noá, hijas de Selofhad, hicieron lo que el Señor le había ordenado a Moisés, y se casaron con hijos de sus tíos paternos, 12 que eran descendientes de Manasés, hijo de José. Así su herencia quedó dentro de la tribu a la que pertenecía su padre.
13 Éstas fueron las órdenes y normas que el Señor dio a los israelitas por medio de Moisés en las llanuras de Moab, junto al Jordán, frente a Jericó.
Numbers 36
Living Bible
36 1-2 Then the heads of the subclan of Gilead (of the clan of Machir, of the tribe of Manasseh, one of the sons of Joseph) came to Moses and the leaders of Israel with a petition: “The Lord instructed you to divide the land by lot among the people of Israel,” they reminded Moses, “and to give the inheritance of our brother Zelophehad to his daughters. 3 But if they marry into another tribe, their land will go with them to the tribe into which they marry. In this way the total area of our tribe will be reduced 4 and will not be returned at the Year of Jubilee.”
5 Then Moses replied publicly, giving them these instructions from the Lord: “The men of the tribe of Joseph have a proper complaint. 6 This is what the Lord has further commanded concerning the daughters of Zelophehad: ‘Let them be married to anyone they like, so long as it is within their own tribe. 7 In this way none of the land of the tribe will shift to any other tribe, for the inheritance of every tribe is to remain permanently as it was first allotted. 8 The girls throughout the tribes of Israel who are heiresses must marry within their own tribe, so that their land won’t leave the tribe. 9 In this way no inheritance shall move from one tribe to another.’”
10 The daughters of Zelophehad did as the Lord commanded Moses. 11-12 These girls, Mahlah, Tirzah, Hoglah, Milcah, and Noah, were married to men in their own tribe of Manasseh (son of Joseph); so their inheritance remained in their tribe.
13 These are the commandments and ordinances that the Lord gave to the people of Israel through Moses, while they were camped on the plains of Moab beside the Jordan River, across from Jericho.
Numbers 36
New International Version
Inheritance of Zelophehad’s Daughters(A)
36 The family heads of the clan of Gilead(B) son of Makir,(C) the son of Manasseh, who were from the clans of the descendants of Joseph,(D) came and spoke before Moses and the leaders,(E) the heads of the Israelite families. 2 They said, “When the Lord commanded my lord to give the land as an inheritance to the Israelites by lot,(F) he ordered you to give the inheritance of our brother Zelophehad(G) to his daughters. 3 Now suppose they marry men from other Israelite tribes; then their inheritance will be taken from our ancestral inheritance and added to that of the tribe they marry into. And so part of the inheritance allotted to us will be taken away. 4 When the Year of Jubilee(H) for the Israelites comes, their inheritance will be added to that of the tribe into which they marry, and their property will be taken from the tribal inheritance of our ancestors.”
5 Then at the Lord’s command Moses gave this order to the Israelites: “What the tribe of the descendants of Joseph is saying is right. 6 This is what the Lord commands for Zelophehad’s daughters: They may marry anyone they please as long as they marry within their father’s tribal clan. 7 No inheritance(I) in Israel is to pass from one tribe to another, for every Israelite shall keep the tribal inheritance of their ancestors. 8 Every daughter who inherits land in any Israelite tribe must marry someone in her father’s tribal clan,(J) so that every Israelite will possess the inheritance of their ancestors. 9 No inheritance may pass from one tribe to another, for each Israelite tribe is to keep the land it inherits.”
10 So Zelophehad’s daughters did as the Lord commanded Moses. 11 Zelophehad’s daughters—Mahlah, Tirzah, Hoglah, Milkah and Noah(K)—married their cousins on their father’s side. 12 They married within the clans of the descendants of Manasseh son of Joseph, and their inheritance remained in their father’s tribe and clan.(L)
13 These are the commands and regulations the Lord gave through Moses(M) to the Israelites on the plains of Moab by the Jordan across from Jericho.(N)
