Numbers 27:2-4 New English Translation (NET)

2. And 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,

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.

4. Why 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.”
