26 After the plague the Lord said to Moses and Eleazar son of Aaron, the priest,

Take a census of all the [male] congregation of the Israelites from twenty years old and upward, by their fathers’ houses, all in Israel able to go to war.

And Moses and Eleazar the priest told [the people] in the plains of Moab by the Jordan at Jericho,

A census of the people shall be taken from twenty years old and upward, as the Lord commanded Moses. And the Israelites who came forth out of the land of Egypt were:

51 This was the number of the Israelites, 601,730.

52 And the Lord said to Moses,

53 To these the land shall be divided for inheritance according to the number of names.

54 To a larger tribe you shall give the greater inheritance, and to a small tribe the less inheritance; to each tribe shall its inheritance be given according to its numbers.

55 But the land shall be divided by lot; according to the names of the tribes of their fathers they shall inherit.

56 According to the lot shall their inheritance be divided between the larger and the smaller.

57 And these were numbered of the Levites according to their families: of Gershon, the family of the Gershonites; of Kohath, the family of the Kohathites; of Merari, the family of the Merarites.

58 These are the families of Levi: the family of the Libnites, the family of the Hebronites, the family of the Mahlites, the family of the Mushites, the family of the Korahites. And Kohath was the father of Amram.

59 Amram’s wife was Jochebed daughter of Levi, who was born to Levi in Egypt; and she bore to Amram Aaron, Moses, and Miriam their sister.

60 And to Aaron were born Nadab, Abihu, Eleazar, and Ithamar.

61 But Nadab and Abihu died when they offered strange and unholy fire before the Lord.

62 And those numbered of them were 23,000, every male from a month old and upward; for they were not numbered among the Israelites, because there was no inheritance given them among the Israelites.

63 These were those numbered by Moses and Eleazar the priest, who numbered the Israelites in the plains of Moab by the Jordan at Jericho.

64 But among these there was not a man of those numbered by Moses and Aaron the priest when they numbered the Israelites in the Wilderness of Sinai.

65 For the Lord had said of them, They shall surely die in the wilderness. There was not left a man of them except Caleb son of Jephunneh and Joshua son of Nun.

27 Then came the daughters of Zelophehad son of Hepher, the son of Gilead, the son of Machir, the son of Manasseh, from the families of Manasseh son of Joseph. The names of his daughters: Mahlah, Noah, Hoglah, Milcah, and Tirzah.

They stood before Moses, Eleazar the priest, and the leaders, and all the congregation at the door of the Tent of Meeting, saying,

Our father died in the wilderness. He was not among those who assembled together against the Lord in the company of Korah, but died for his own sin [as did all those who rebelled at Kadesh], and he had no sons.(A)

Why should the name of our father be removed from his family because he had no son? Give to us a possession among our father’s brethren.

Moses brought their case before the Lord.

And the Lord said to Moses,

The daughters of Zelophehad are justified and speak correctly. You shall surely give them an inheritance among their father’s brethren, and you shall cause their father’s inheritance to pass to them.

And say to the Israelites, If a man dies and has no son, you shall cause his inheritance to pass to his daughter.

If he has no daughter, you shall give his inheritance to his brethren.

10 If he has no brethren, give his inheritance to his father’s brethren.

11 And if his father has no brethren, then give his inheritance to his next of kin, and he shall possess it. It shall be to the Israelites a statute and ordinance, as the Lord commanded Moses.

12 And the Lord said to Moses, Go up into this mountain of Abarim and behold the land I have given to the Israelites.

13 And when you have seen it, you also shall be gathered to your [departed] people as Aaron your brother was gathered,

14 For you disobeyed My order in the Wilderness of Zin during the strife of the congregation to uphold My sanctity [by strict obedience to My authority] at the waters before their eyes. [These are the waters of Meribah in Kadesh in the Wilderness of Zin].(B)

15 And Moses said to the Lord,

16 Let the Lord, the God of the spirits of all flesh, set a man over the congregation

17 Who shall go out and come in before them, leading them out and bringing them in, that the congregation of the Lord may not be as sheep which have no shepherd.

18 The Lord said to Moses, Take Joshua son of Nun, a man in whom is the Spirit, and lay your hand upon him;

19 And set him before Eleazar the priest and all the congregation and give him a charge in their sight.

20 And put some of your honor and authority upon him, that all the congregation of the Israelites may obey him.

21 He shall stand before Eleazar the priest, who shall inquire for him before the Lord by the judgment of the Urim [one of two articles in the priest’s breastplate worn when asking counsel of the Lord for the people]. At Joshua’s word the people shall go out and come in, both he and all the Israelite congregation with him.

22 And Moses did as the Lord commanded him. He took Joshua and set him before Eleazar the priest and all the congregation,

23 And he laid his hands upon him and commissioned him, as the Lord commanded through Moses.

28 And the Lord said to Moses,

Command the Israelites, saying, My offering, My food for My offerings made by fire, My sweet and soothing odor you shall be careful to offer to Me at its proper time.

And you shall say to the people, This is the offering made by fire which you shall offer to the Lord: two male lambs a year old without spot or blemish, two day by day, for a continual burnt offering.

One lamb you shall offer in the morning and the other in the evening,

Also a tenth of an ephah of flour for a cereal offering, mixed with a fourth of a hin of beaten oil.

It is a continual burnt offering which was ordained in Mount Sinai for a sweet and soothing odor, an offering made by fire to the Lord.

Its drink offering shall be a fourth of a hin for each lamb; in the Holy Place you shall pour out a fermented drink offering to the Lord.

And the other lamb you shall offer in the evening; like the cereal offering of the morning and like its drink offering, you shall offer it, an offering made by fire, a sweet and soothing odor to the Lord.

And on the Sabbath day two male lambs a year old without spot or blemish, and two-tenths of an ephah of flour for a cereal offering, mixed with oil, and its drink offering.

10 This is the burnt offering of every Sabbath, besides the continual burnt offering and its drink offering.

11 And at the beginning of your months you shall offer a burnt offering to the Lord: two young bulls, one ram, seven male lambs a year old without spot or blemish;

12 And three-tenths of an ephah of fine flour for a cereal offering, mixed with oil, for each bull; and two-tenths of an ephah of fine flour for a cereal offering, mixed with oil, for the one ram.

13 And a tenth part of fine flour mixed with oil as a cereal offering, for each lamb, for a burnt offering of a sweet and pleasant fragrance, an offering made by fire to the Lord.

14 And their drink offerings shall be half a hin of wine for a bull, and a third of a hin for a ram, and a fourth of a hin for a lamb. This is the burnt offering of each month throughout the months of the year.

15 And one male goat for a sin offering to the Lord—it shall be offered in addition to the continual burnt offering and its drink offering.

16 On the fourteenth day of the first month is the Lord’s Passover.

17 On the fifteenth day of this month is a feast; for seven days shall unleavened bread be eaten.

18 On the first day there shall be a holy [summoned] assembly; you shall do no servile work that day.

19 But you shall offer an offering made by fire, a burnt offering to the Lord: two young bulls, one ram, and seven male lambs a year old; they shall be without blemish to the best of your knowledge.

20 And their cereal offering shall be of fine flour mixed with oil; three-tenths of an ephah shall you offer for a bull, and two-tenths for a ram;

21 A tenth shall you offer for each of the seven male lambs,

22 Also one male goat for a sin offering to make atonement for you.

23 You shall offer these in addition to the burnt offering of the morning, which is for a continual burnt offering.

24 In this way you shall offer daily for seven days the food of an offering made by fire, a sweet and soothing odor to the Lord; it shall be offered in addition to the continual burnt offering and its drink offering.

25 And on the seventh day you shall have a holy [summoned] assembly; you shall do no work befitting a slave or a servant.

26 Also in the day of the firstfruits, when you offer a cereal offering of new grain to the Lord at your Feast of Weeks, you shall have a holy [summoned] assembly; you shall do no servile work.

27 But you shall offer the burnt offering for a sweet, pleasing, and soothing fragrance to the Lord: two young bulls, one ram, seven male lambs a year old,

28 And their cereal offering of fine flour mixed with oil, three-tenths of an ephah for each bull, two-tenths for one ram,

29 A tenth for each of the seven male lambs,

30 And one male goat to make atonement for you.

31 You shall offer them in addition to the continual burnt offering and its cereal offering and their drink offerings. See that they are without blemish.

57 These were the Levites(BR) who were counted by their clans:

To Amram she bore Aaron, Moses(BU) and their sister(BV) Miriam.(BW) 60 Aaron was the father of Nadab and Abihu, Eleazar and Ithamar.(BX) 61 But Nadab and Abihu(BY) died when they made an offering before the Lord with unauthorized fire.)(BZ)

62 All the male Levites a month old or more numbered 23,000.(CA) They were not counted(CB) along with the other Israelites because they received no inheritance(CC) among them.(CD)

63 These are the ones counted(CE) by Moses and Eleazar the priest when they counted the Israelites on the plains of Moab(CF) by the Jordan across from Jericho.(CG) 64 Not one of them was among those counted(CH) by Moses and Aaron(CI) the priest when they counted the Israelites in the Desert of Sinai. 65 For the Lord had told those Israelites they would surely die in the wilderness,(CJ) and not one of them was left except Caleb(CK) son of Jephunneh and Joshua son of Nun.(CL)

Zelophehad’s Daughters(CM)

27 The daughters of Zelophehad(CN) son of Hepher,(CO) the son of Gilead,(CP) the son of Makir,(CQ) the son of Manasseh, belonged to the clans of Manasseh son of Joseph. The names of the daughters were Mahlah, Noah, Hoglah, Milkah and Tirzah. They came forward and stood before Moses,(CR) Eleazar the priest, the leaders(CS) and the whole assembly at the entrance to the tent of meeting(CT) and said, “Our father died in the wilderness.(CU) He was not among Korah’s followers, who banded together against the Lord,(CV) but he died for his own sin and left no sons.(CW) Why should our father’s name disappear from his clan because he had no son? Give us property among our father’s relatives.”

So Moses brought their case(CX) before the Lord,(CY) and the Lord said to him, “What Zelophehad’s daughters are saying is right. You must certainly give them property as an inheritance(CZ) among their father’s relatives and give their father’s inheritance to them.(DA)

“Say to the Israelites, ‘If a man dies and leaves no son, give his inheritance to his daughter. If he has no daughter, give his inheritance to his brothers. 10 If he has no brothers, give his inheritance to his father’s brothers. 11 If his father had no brothers, give his inheritance to the nearest relative in his clan, that he may possess it. This is to have the force of law(DB) for the Israelites, as the Lord commanded Moses.’”

Joshua to Succeed Moses

12 Then the Lord said to Moses, “Go up this mountain(DC) in the Abarim Range(DD) and see the land(DE) I have given the Israelites.(DF) 13 After you have seen it, you too will be gathered to your people,(DG) as your brother Aaron(DH) was, 14 for when the community rebelled at the waters in the Desert of Zin,(DI) both of you disobeyed my command to honor me as holy(DJ) before their eyes.” (These were the waters of Meribah(DK) Kadesh, in the Desert of Zin.)

15 Moses said to the Lord, 16 “May the Lord, the God who gives breath to all living things,(DL) appoint someone over this community 17 to go out and come in before them, one who will lead them out and bring them in, so the Lord’s people will not be like sheep without a shepherd.”(DM)

18 So the Lord said to Moses, “Take Joshua son of Nun, a man in whom is the spirit of leadership,[f](DN) and lay your hand on him.(DO) 19 Have him stand before Eleazar the priest and the entire assembly and commission him(DP) in their presence.(DQ) 20 Give him some of your authority so the whole Israelite community will obey him.(DR) 21 He is to stand before Eleazar the priest, who will obtain decisions for him by inquiring(DS) of the Urim(DT) before the Lord. At his command he and the entire community of the Israelites will go out, and at his command they will come in.”

22 Moses did as the Lord commanded him. He took Joshua and had him stand before Eleazar the priest and the whole assembly. 23 Then he laid his hands on him and commissioned him,(DU) as the Lord instructed through Moses.

Daily Offerings

28 The Lord said to Moses, “Give this command to the Israelites and say to them: ‘Make sure that you present to me at the appointed time(DV) my food(DW) offerings, as an aroma pleasing to me.’(DX) Say to them: ‘This is the food offering you are to present to the Lord: two lambs a year old without defect,(DY) as a regular burnt offering each day.(DZ) Offer one lamb in the morning and the other at twilight,(EA) together with a grain offering(EB) of a tenth of an ephah[g] of the finest flour(EC) mixed with a quarter of a hin[h] of oil(ED) from pressed olives. This is the regular burnt offering(EE) instituted at Mount Sinai(EF) as a pleasing aroma, a food offering presented to the Lord.(EG) The accompanying drink offering(EH) is to be a quarter of a hin of fermented drink(EI) with each lamb. Pour out the drink offering to the Lord at the sanctuary.(EJ) Offer the second lamb at twilight,(EK) along with the same kind of grain offering and drink offering that you offer in the morning.(EL) This is a food offering, an aroma pleasing to the Lord.(EM)

Sabbath Offerings

“‘On the Sabbath(EN) day, make an offering of two lambs a year old without defect,(EO) together with its drink offering and a grain offering of two-tenths of an ephah[i](EP) of the finest flour mixed with olive oil.(EQ) 10 This is the burnt offering for every Sabbath,(ER) in addition to the regular burnt offering(ES) and its drink offering.

Monthly Offerings

11 “‘On the first of every month,(ET) present to the Lord a burnt offering of two young bulls,(EU) one ram(EV) and seven male lambs a year old, all without defect.(EW) 12 With each bull there is to be a grain offering(EX) of three-tenths of an ephah[j](EY) of the finest flour mixed with oil; with the ram, a grain offering of two-tenths(EZ) of an ephah of the finest flour mixed with oil; 13 and with each lamb, a grain offering(FA) of a tenth(FB) of an ephah of the finest flour mixed with oil. This is for a burnt offering,(FC) a pleasing aroma, a food offering presented to the Lord.(FD) 14 With each bull there is to be a drink offering(FE) of half a hin[k] of wine; with the ram, a third of a hin[l]; and with each lamb, a quarter of a hin. This is the monthly burnt offering to be made at each new moon(FF) during the year. 15 Besides the regular burnt offering(FG) with its drink offering, one male goat(FH) is to be presented to the Lord as a sin offering.[m](FI)
