*
And they said ,
The LORD commanded my lord to give the land for an inheritance by lot to the children of Israel Yisra #
el #:
and my lord was commanded by the LORD to give the inheritance of Zelophehad our brother unto his daughters .
*
And if they be married to any of the sons of the other tribes of the children of Israel Yisra #
el #,
then shall their inheritance be taken from the inheritance of our fathers ,
and shall be put to the inheritance of the tribe whereunto they are received :
so shall it be taken from the lot of our inheritance .
*
And when the jubile of the children of Israel shall be ,
then shall their inheritance be put unto the inheritance of the tribe whereunto they are received :
so shall their inheritance be taken away from the inheritance of the tribe of our fathers .
*
And Moses commanded the children of Israel according to the word of the LORD ,
saying ,
The tribe of the sons of Joseph hath said well .
*
This is the thing which the LORD doth command concerning the daughters of Zelophehad ,
saying ,
Let them marry to whom they think best ;
only to the family of the tribe of their father shall they marry .
*
So shall not the inheritance of the children of Israel remove from tribe to tribe :
for every one of the children of Israel shall keep himself to the inheritance of the tribe of his fathers .
*
And every daughter ,
that possesseth an inheritance in any tribe of the children of Israel Yisra #
el #,
shall be wife unto one of the family of the tribe of her father ,
that the children of Israel may enjoy every man the inheritance of his fathers .
*
Neither shall the inheritance remove from one tribe to another tribe ;
but every one of the tribes of the children of Israel shall keep himself to his own inheritance .
