“And Jehovah spake unto Moses, saying, ”
“Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying,”
“The LORD said to Moses:”
“The daughters of Salphaad demand a just thing: Give them a possession among their father's kindred, and let them succeed him in his inheritance.”
“And the Lord said to Moses,”
“And the Lord spake unto Moses, saying,”
“Our father died in the desert, and was not with the sedition, which was stirred up against the Lord under Korah, but he died in his own sin; he had no male sons. Why is his name taken away from his family, because he had no son? Give us a possession among the kinsmen of our father.”
And Moses referred their case to the judgment of the Lord.
And the Lord said to him:
“The daughters of Zelophehad are asking for something just. So give them a possession among the kinsmen of their father, and let them succeed him in his inheritance.
And to the sons of Israel, you shall speak these things:
When a man dies without a son, his inheritance shall be transferred to his daughter.
If he has no daughter, his brothers shall succeed him.
