&#8220;The daughters of Zelophehad have a valid claim.<n id="1" /> You must indeed<n id="2" /> give them possession of an inheritance among their father&#8217;s relatives, and you must transfer<n id="3" /> the inheritance of their father to them.

And when the Jubilee of the Israelites is to take place,<n id="1" /> their inheritance will be added to the inheritance of the tribe into which they marry. So their inheritance will be taken away from the inheritance of our ancestral tribe.&#8221;<n id="2" />p>

Moreover,<n id="1" /> you have not brought us into a land that flows with milk and honey, nor given us an inheritance of fields and vineyards. Do you think you can blind<n id="2" /> these men? We will not come up.&#8221;p>

They said, &#8220;The <sc>Lordsc> commanded my lord to give<n id="1" /> the land as an inheritance by lot to the Israelites; and my lord was commanded by the <sc>Lordsc> to give the inheritance of our brother Zelophehad to his daughters.

Now if they should be married to one of the men<n id="1" /> from another Israelite tribe, their inheritance would be taken from the inheritance of our fathers and added to the inheritance of the tribe into which they marry.<n id="2" /> As a result, it will be taken from the lot of our inheritance.

And every daughter who possesses an inheritance from any of the tribes of the Israelites must become the wife of a man from any family in her father&#8217;s tribe, so that every Israelite<n id="1" /> may retain the inheritance of his fathers.
