1Then 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.1Then the daughters of Zelophehad son of Hepher, the son of Gilead, the son of Machir, the son of Manasseh of the families of Manasseh, the son Joseph came forward. Now these are the names of his daughters: Mahlah, Noah, Hoglah, Milcah, and Tirzah.
2And 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,2And they stood before Moses and Eleazar the priest and the leaders of the whole assembly at the entrance to the tent of meeting and said,
3Our 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.3"Our father died in the wilderness, although he was not part of the company of those that gathered themselves together against the LORD in the company of Korah; but he died for his own sin, and he had no sons.
4Why 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.4Why should the name of our father be lost from among his family because he had no son? Give us a possession among the relatives of our father."
5And Moses brought their cause before the LORD.5So Moses brought their case before the LORD.
6And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,6The LORD said to Moses:
7The daughters of Zelophehad speak right: thou shalt surely give them a possession of an inheritance among their father's brethren; and thou shalt cause the inheritance of their father to pass unto them.7"The daughters of Zelophehad have a valid claim. You must indeed give them possession of an inheritance among their father's relatives, and you must transfer the inheritance of their father to them.
8And thou shalt speak unto the children of Israel, saying, If a man die, and have no son, then ye shall cause his inheritance to pass unto his daughter.8And you must tell the Israelites, 'If a man dies and has no son, then you must transfer his inheritance to his daughter;
9And if he have no daughter, then ye shall give his inheritance unto his brethren.9and if he has no daughter, then you are to give his inheritance to his brothers;
10And if he have no brethren, then ye shall give his inheritance unto his father's brethren.10and if he has no brothers, then you are to give his inheritance to his father's brothers;
11And if his father have no brethren, then ye shall give his inheritance unto his kinsman that is next to him of his family, and he shall possess it: and it shall be unto the children of Israel a statute of judgment, as the LORD commanded Moses.11and if his father has no brothers, then you are to give his inheritance to his relative nearest to him from his family, and he will possess it. This will be for the Israelites a legal requirement, as the LORD commanded Moses.'"
12And the LORD said unto Moses, Get thee up into this mount Abarim, and see the land which I have given unto the children of Israel.12Then the LORD said to Moses, "Go up this mountain of the Abarim range, and see the land I have given to the Israelites.
13And when thou hast seen it, thou also shalt be gathered unto thy people, as Aaron thy brother was gathered.13When you have seen it, you will be gathered to your ancestors, as Aaron your brother was gathered to his ancestors.
14For ye rebelled against my commandment in the desert of Zin, in the strife of the congregation, to sanctify me at the water before their eyes: that is the water of Meribah in Kadesh in the wilderness of Zin.14For in the wilderness of Zin when the community rebelled against me, you rebelled against my command to show me as holy before their eyes over the water--the water of Meribah in Kadesh in the wilderness of Zin."
15And Moses spake unto the LORD, saying,15Then Moses spoke to the LORD:
16Let the LORD, the God of the spirits of all flesh, set a man over the congregation,16"Let the LORD, the God of the spirits of all humankind, appoint a man over the community,
17Which may go out before them, and which may go in before them, and which may lead them out, and which may bring them in; that the congregation of the LORD be not as sheep which have no shepherd.17who will go out before them, and who will come in before them, and who will lead them out, and who will bring them in, so that the community of the LORD may not be like sheep that have no shepherd."
18And the LORD said unto Moses, Take thee Joshua the son of Nun, a man in whom is the spirit, and lay thine hand upon him;18The LORD replied to Moses, "Take Joshua son of Nun, a man in whom is such a spirit, and lay your hand on him;
19And set him before Eleazar the priest, and before all the congregation; and give him a charge in their sight.19set him before Eleazar the priest and before the whole community, and commission him publicly.
20And thou shalt put some of thine honour upon him, that all the congregation of the children of Israel may be obedient.20Then you must delegate some of your authority to him, so that the whole community of the Israelites will be obedient.
21And he shall stand before Eleazar the priest, who shall ask counsel for him after the judgment of Urim before the LORD: at his word shall they go out, and at his word they shall come in, both he, and all the children of Israel with him, even all the congregation.21And he will stand before Eleazar the priest, who will seek counsel for him before the LORD by the decision of the Urim. At his command they will go out, and at his command they will come in, he and all the Israelites with him, the whole community."
22And Moses did as the LORD commanded him: and he took Joshua, and set him before Eleazar the priest, and before all the congregation:22So Moses did as the LORD commanded him; he took Joshua and set him before Eleazar the priest and before the whole community.
23And he laid his hands upon him, and gave him a charge, as the LORD commanded by the hand of Moses.23He laid his hands on him and commissioned him, just as the LORD commanded, by the authority of Moses.
