Numbers 36

36 And the chief fathers of the families of the achildren of Gilead, the son of Machir, the son of Manasseh, of the families of the sons of Joseph, came near, and spake before Moses, and before the princes, the chief fathers of the children of Israel: And they said, bThe Lord commanded my lord to give the land for an inheritance by lot to the children of Israel: and cmy lord was commanded by the Lord to give the inheritance of Zelophehad our brother unto his daughters. And if they be married to any of the sons of the other tribes of the children of Israel, then shall their inheritance dbe taken from the inheritance of our fathers, and shall be put to the inheritance of the tribe whereunto they are received: so shall it dbe taken from the lot of our inheritance. And when ethe jubile of the children of Israel shall be, then shall their inheritance be put unto the inheritance of the tribe whereunto they are received: so shall their inheritance dbe taken away from the inheritance of the tribe of our fathers. And Moses commanded the children of Israel according to the word of the Lord, saying, The tribe of the sons of Joseph fhath said well. This is the thing which the Lord doth command concerning the daughters of Zelophehad, saying, Let them marry to whom they think best; gonly to the family of the tribe of their father shall they marry. So shall not the inheritance of the children of Israel remove from tribe to tribe: for every one of the children of Israel shall hkeep himself to the inheritance of the tribe of his fathers. And ievery daughter, that possesseth an inheritance in any tribe of the children of Israel, shall be wife unto one of the family of the tribe of her father, that the children of Israel may enjoy every man the inheritance of his fathers. Neither shall the inheritance remove from one tribe to another tribe; but every one of the tribes of the children of Israel shall keep himself to his own inheritance. 10 Even as the Lord commanded Moses, so did the daughters of Zelophehad: 11 kFor Mahlah, Tirzah, and Hoglah, and Milcah, and Noah, the daughters of Zelophehad, were married unto their father’s brothers’ sons: 12 And they were married into the families of the sons of Manasseh the son of Joseph, and their inheritance remained in the tribe of the family of their father. 13 These are the commandments and the judgments, which the Lord commanded by the hand of Moses unto the children of Israel lin the plains of Moab by Jordan near Jericho.

And as for the western border, ye shall even have the great sea for a border: this shall be your west border. And this shall be your north border: from the great sea ye shall point out for you hmount Hor: From mount Hor ye shall point out your border iunto the entrance of Hamath; and the goings forth of the border shall be to kZedad: And the border shall go on to Ziphron, and the goings out of it shall be at lHazar-enan: this shall be your north border. 10 And ye shall point out your east border from Hazar-enan to Shepham: 11 And the coast shall go down from Shepham mto Riblah, on the east side of Ain; and the border shall descend, and shall reach unto the side of the sea nof Chinnereth eastward: 12 And the border shall go down to Jordan, and the goings out of it shall be at othe salt sea: this shall be your land with the coasts thereof round about. 13 And Moses commanded the children of Israel, saying, pThis is the land which ye shall inherit by lot, which the Lord commanded to give unto the nine tribes, and to the half tribe: 14 qFor the tribe of the children of Reuben according to the house of their fathers, and the tribe of the children of Gad according to the house of their fathers, have received their inheritance; and half the tribe of Manasseh have received their inheritance: 15 The two tribes and the half tribe have received their inheritance on this side Jordan near Jericho eastward, toward the sunrising.

16 And the Lord spake unto Moses, saying, 17 These are the names of the men which shall divide the land unto you: rEleazar the priest, and Joshua the son of Nun. 18 And ye shall take one sprince of every tribe, to divide the land by inheritance. 19 And the names of the men are these: Of the tribe of Judah, Caleb the son of Jephunneh. 20 And of the tribe of the children of Simeon, Shemuel the son of Ammihud. 21 Of the tribe of Benjamin, Elidad the son of Chislon. 22 And the prince of the tribe of the children of Dan, Bukki the son of Jogli. 23 The prince of the children of Joseph, for the tribe of the children of Manasseh, Hanniel the son of Ephod. 24 And the prince of the tribe of the children of Ephraim, Kemuel the son of Shiphtan. 25 And the prince of the tribe of the children of Zebulun, Elizaphan the son of Parnach. 26 And the prince of the tribe of the children of Issachar, Paltiel the son of Azzan. 27 And the prince of the tribe of the children of Asher, Ahihud the son of Shelomi. 28 And the prince of the tribe of the children of Naphtali, Pedahel the son of Ammihud. 29 These are they whom the Lord commanded to divide the inheritance unto the children of Israel in the land of Canaan.

35 *And the Lord spake unto Moses in athe plains of Moab by Jordan near Jericho, saying, bCommand the children of Israel, that they give unto the Levites of the inheritance of their possession cities to dwell in; and ye shall give also unto the Levites csuburbs for the cities round about them. And the cities shall they have to dwell in; and the csuburbs of them shall be for their cattle, and for their goods, and for all their beasts. And the csuburbs of the cities, which ye shall give unto the Levites, shall reach from the wall of the city and outward a thousand cubits round about. And ye shall measure from without the city on the east side two thousand cubits, and on the south side two thousand cubits, and on the west side two thousand cubits, and on the north side two thousand cubits; and the city shall be in the midst: this shall be to them the csuburbs of the cities. And among the cities which ye shall give unto the Levites there shall be dsix cities for refuge, which ye shall appoint for the manslayer, that he may flee thither: and to them ye shall add forty and two cities. So all the cities which ye shall give to the Levites shall be eforty and eight cities: them shall ye give with their suburbs. And the cities which ye shall give shall be fof the possession of the children of Israel: gfrom them that have many ye shall give many; but gfrom them that have few ye shall give few: every one shall give of his cities unto the Levites according to his inheritance which he inheriteth.
