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. 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. 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. 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.”

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. 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. No inheritance(I) in Israel is to pass from one tribe to another, for every Israelite shall keep the tribal inheritance of their ancestors. 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. 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)

36 І поприходили голови батьківських домів родів синів Ґілеада, сина Махіра, сина Манасіїного з родів Йосипових синів, і промовили перед Мойсеєм та перед князями, головами батьківських домів Ізраїлевих синів,

і сказали: Господь наказав моєму панові дати жеребком цей Край Ізраїлевим синам, і пан мій отримав Господнього наказа дати спадок нашого брата Целофхада його дочкам.

І якщо вони будуть за жінок кому з синів інших племен Ізраїлевих синів, то буде віднята їхня спадщина зо спадку наших батьків, і буде додане над спадок тому племені, що вони стануть їм за жінок, а з жеребка нашого спадку буде відняте.

А якщо Ізраїлевим синам буде ювілей, то буде їхня спадщина додана до спадку племени, що стануть їм за жінок, і їхня спадщина буде віднята від спадку племени наших батьків.

І наказав Мойсей Ізраїлевим синам за Господнім наказом, говорячи: Слушно говорить плем'я Йосипових синів.

Оце та річ, що Господь заповів про Целофхадових дочок, говорячи: Вони стануть за жінок тим, хто їм подобається, тільки родові племени їхнього батька вони стануть за жінок.

І не буде переходити спадщина Ізраїлевих синів від племени до племени, бо кожен із Ізраїлевих синів буде держатися спадщини племени своїх батьків.

А кожна дочка, що посяде спадщину від племени Ізраїлевих синів, стане за жінку одному з роду племени батька свого, щоб Ізраїлеві сини володіли кожен спадком батьків своїх.

І не буде переходити спадок від племени до іншого племени, бо кожен із племен Ізраїлевих синів буде держатися спадку свого.

10 Як Господь наказав був Мойсеєві, так учинили Целофхадові дочки.

11 І стали Целофхадові дочки: Махла, Тірца, і Хоґла, і Мілка, і Ноа за жінок для синів дядьків своїх.

12 Тим, що з родів синів Манасіїних, сина Йосипового, стали вони за жінок, а їхня спадщина залишилася за племенем роду їхнього батька.

13 Оце заповіді та постанови, що Господь наказав був через Мойсея Ізраїлевим синам у моавських степах над приєрихонським Йорданом.

Marriage of Female Heirs

36 The heads of the fathers' houses of the clan of the (A)people of Gilead the son of Machir, son of Manasseh, from the clans of the people of Joseph, came near and spoke before Moses and before the chiefs, the heads of the fathers' houses of the people of Israel. They said, (B)“The Lord commanded my lord to give the land for inheritance by lot to the people of Israel, and (C)my lord was commanded by the Lord to give the inheritance of Zelophehad our brother to his daughters. But if they are married to any of the sons of the other tribes of the people of Israel, then their inheritance will be taken from the inheritance of our fathers and added to the inheritance of the tribe into which they marry. So it will be taken away from the lot of our inheritance. And when (D)the jubilee of the people of Israel comes, then their inheritance will be added to the inheritance of the tribe into which they marry, and their inheritance will be taken from the inheritance of the tribe of our fathers.”

And Moses commanded the people of Israel according to the word of the Lord, saying, “The tribe of the people of Joseph (E)is right. This is what the Lord commands concerning the daughters of Zelophehad: ‘Let them marry whom they think best, (F)only they shall marry within the clan of the tribe of their father. The inheritance of the people of Israel shall not be transferred from one tribe to another, for every one of the people of Israel (G)shall hold on to the inheritance of the tribe of his fathers. And (H)every daughter who possesses an inheritance in any tribe of the people of Israel shall be wife to one of the clan of the tribe of her father, so that every one of the people of Israel may possess the inheritance of his fathers. So no inheritance shall be transferred from one tribe to another, for each of the tribes of the people of Israel shall hold on to its own inheritance.’”

10 The daughters of Zelophehad did as the Lord commanded Moses, 11 (I)for Mahlah, Tirzah, Hoglah, Milcah, and Noah, the daughters of Zelophehad, were married to sons of their father's brothers. 12 They were married into the clans of the people of Manasseh the son of Joseph, and their inheritance remained in the tribe of their father's clan.

13 These are the commandments and the rules that the Lord commanded through Moses to the people of Israel (J)in the plains of Moab by the Jordan at Jericho.
