*
Then came the daughters of Zelophehad ,
the son of Hepher ,
the son of Gilead ,
the son of Machir ,
the son of Manasseh ,
of the families of Manasseh the son of Joseph :
and these are the names of his daughters ;
Mahlah ,
Noah ,
and Hoglah ,
and Milcah ,
and Tirzah .
*
And they stood before Moses ,
and before Eleazar the priest ,
and before the princes and all the congregation ,
by the door of the tabernacle of the congregation ,
saying ,
*
Our father died in the wilderness ,
and he was not in the company of them that gathered themselves together against the LORD in the company of Korah ;
but died in his own sin ,
and had no sons .
*
Why should the name of our father be done away from among his family ,
because he hath no son ?
Give unto us therefore a possession among the brethren of our father .
*
And Moses brought their cause before the LORD .
