2. And they stood before Mosheh, and before El‛azar the priest, and before the leaders and all the congregation, by the doorway of the Tent of Meeting, saying,
3. “Our father died in the wilderness, yet he was not in the company of those who were met together against יהוה, in company with Qoraḥ, but he died in his own sin. And he had no sons.
4. “Why should the name of our father be removed from among his clan because he had no son? Give us a possession among the brothers of our father.”
5. Mosheh then brought their case before יהוה.
6. And יהוה spoke to Mosheh, saying,
7. “The daughters of Tselophḥaḏ speak what is right. You should certainly give them a possession of inheritance among their father’s brothers, and cause the inheritance of their father to pass to them.
8. “And speak to the children of Yisra’ĕl, saying, ‘When a man dies and has no son, then you shall cause his inheritance to pass to his daughter.
9. ‘And if he has no daughter, then you shall give his inheritance to his brothers.
10. ‘And if he has no brothers, then you shall give his inheritance to his father’s brothers.
