8 Every daughter who possesses an inheritance from the tribes of the ⌊Israelites⌋v will ⌊marry⌋w one of the clan of the tribe of her father, so that the ⌊Israelites⌋x will possess the inheritance of his ancestors.y 9 Therefore an inheritance will not go around from one tribe to another tribe because the tribes of the ⌊Israelites⌋z will each hold to their own inheritance.’ ”

10 Just as Yahweh commanded to Moses, so the daughters of Zelophehad did: 11 Mahlah, Tirzah, Hoglah, Milcah, and Noah, the daughters of Zelophehad, ⌊married⌋a the sons of their uncles. 12 ⌊They married⌋b those from the sons of Manasseh son of Joseph, and their inheritance ⌊remained⌋c among the tribe of the clan of their ancestors.d

13 These were the commands and the stipulations that Yahweh commanded by the hand of Mosese to the ⌊Israelites⌋f on the desert-plateaus of Moab by the Jordan across Jericho.
