2They came before Moses and Eleazar the priest and the chiefs and all the people at the door of the Tent of meeting, and said,
3Death overtook our father in the waste land; he was not among those who were banded together with Korah against the Lord; but death came to him in his sin; and he had no sons.
4Why is the name of our father to be taken away from among his family, because he had no son? Give us a heritage among our father's brothers.
7What the daughters of Zelophehad say is right: certainly you are to give them a heritage among their father's brothers: and let the property which would have been their father's go to them.
8And say to the children of Israel, If a man has no son at the time of his death, let his heritage go to his daughter.
