1 And they drew near [the] daughters of Zelophehad [the] son of Hepher [the] son of Gilead [the] son of Makir [the] son of Manasseh of [the] clans of Manasseh [the] son of Joseph and these [were] [the] names of daughters his Mahlah Noah and Hoglah and Milcah and Tirzah.

2 And they took their stand before Moses and before Eleazar the priest and before the leaders and all the congregation [the] entrance of [the] tent of meeting saying.

3 Father our he died in the wilderness and he not he was in among the company which gathered on Yahweh in [the] company of Korah for in own sin his he died and sons not they belonged to him.

4 Why? will it be withdrawn [the] name of father our from among clan his for not [belonged] to him a son give! to us a possession in among [the] brothers of father our.

5 And he brought near Moses case their before Yahweh.

6 And he said Yahweh to Moses saying.

7 Right [the] daughters of Zelophehad [are] speaking certainly you will give to them possession of an inheritance in among [the] brothers of father their and you will make pass over [the] inheritance of father their to them.

8 And to [the] people of Israel you will speak saying a man if he will die and a son not [belongs] to him and you will make pass over inheritance his to daughter his.

9 And if not [belongs] to him a daughter and you will give inheritance his to brothers his.

10 And if not [belong] to him brothers and you will give inheritance his to [the] brothers of father his.

11 And if not brothers [belong] to father his and you will give inheritance his to relative his near to him from own clan his and he will take possession of it and it will become for [the] people of Israel a statute of judgment just as he has commanded Yahweh Moses.

12 And he said Yahweh to Moses go up to [the] mountain of the Abarim this and see the land which I have given to [the] people of Israel.

13 And you will see it and you will be gathered to people your also you just as he was gathered Aaron brother your.

14 Since you rebelled against mouth my in [the] wilderness of Zin in [the] strife of the congregation to treat as holy me at the waters to eyes their they [were] [the] waters of Meribath Kadesh [the] wilderness of Zin.

15 And he spoke Moses to Yahweh saying.

16 Let him appoint Yahweh [the] God of the spirits of all flesh a man over the congregation.

17 Who he will go out before them and who he will come before them and who he will lead out them and who he will bring them and not it will be [the] congregation of Yahweh like sheep which not [belongs] to them a shepherd.

18 And he said Yahweh to Moses take for yourself Joshua [the] son of Nun a man whom a spirit [is] in him and you will lay hand your on him.

19 And you will make stand him before Eleazar the priest and before all the congregation and you will commission him to eyes their.

20 And you will put some of majesty your on him so that they may hear all [the] congregation of [the] people of Israel.

21 And before Eleazar the priest he will stand and he will enquire for him by [the] judgment of the Urim before Yahweh on mouth his they will go out and on mouth his they will come he and all [the] people of Israel with him and all the congregation.

22 And he did Moses just as he had commanded Yahweh him and he took Joshua and he made stand him before Eleazar the priest and before all the congregation.

23 And he laid hands his on him and he commissioned him just as he had spoken Yahweh by [the] hand of Moses.
