Números 27
Rotherham Emphasized Bible (1902)
1Then came near the daughters of Zelophehad, son of Hepher, son of Gilead son of Machir son of Manasseh pertaining to the families of Manasseh, son of Joseph,—these being the names of his daughters, Mahlah Noah and Hoglah and Milcah, and Tirzah.
2So they stood before Moses and before Eleazar the priest, and before the princes, and all the assembly,—at the entrance of the tent of meeting, saying:
3Our father, died in the desert, although, he, was not among the assembly that conspired against Yahweh, in the assembly of Korah,—but, in his own sin, died he; and sons, had he none.
4Wherefore should the name of our father be withdrawn out of the midst of his family, because he had no son? Give ye unto us a possession, in the midst of the brethren of our father.
5And Moses brought near their cause before Yahweh.
6Then spake Yahweh unto Moses, saying:
7A right thing, are the daughters of Zelophehad speaking: Thou shalt, surely give, them a possession for an inheritance, in the midst of the brethren of their father,—and shalt cause the inheritance of their father to pass over unto them.
8And unto the sons of Israel, shalt thou speak, saying,—When, any man, shall die, having no son, then shall ye cause his inheritance to pass over to his daughter.
9And, if he hath no daughter, then shall ye give his inheritance unto his, brethren.
10And if he hath no brethren, then shall ye give his inheritance unto the brethren of his father.
11And, if his father hath no brethren, then shall ye give his inheritance unto his blood-relation that is near unto him of his family, and he shall possess it,—So shall it serve the sons of Israel as a regulative statute, As Yahweh commanded Moses.
12And Yahweh said unto Moses, Go up into this mount of Abarim,—and see, the land which I have given unto the sons of Israel;
13And, when thou hast seen it, then shalt thou also be withdrawn unto thy kinsfolk,—as Aaron thy brother was withdrawn;
14because ye resisted my bidding—in the desert of Zin when the assembly contended,—that ye should hallow me regarding the waters, before their eyes,—the same, were the waters of Meribah, of Kadesh in the desert of Zin.
15Then spake Moses unto Yahweh saying:
16Let Yahweh, God of the spirits of all flesh, appoint a man over the assembly;
17who may go out before them and who may come in before them, and who may take them out and who may bring them in,—that the assembly of Yahweh become not as sheep that have no shepherd.
18And Yahweh said unto Moses: Take thee Joshua son of Nun, a man in whom is spirit,—then shalt thou lean thy hand upon him;
19and shalt cause him to stand before Eleazar the priest, and before all the assembly,—and shalt charge him before their eyes;
20and shalt put some of thine honour upon him,—that all the assembly of the sons of Israel may hearken.
21And, before Eleazar the priest, shall he stand, and shall ask by him for the decision of the Lights, before Yahweh,—at the bidding thereof, shall they go out, and at the bidding thereof, shall they come in—he, and all the sons of Israel with him, even all the assembly.
22And Moses did as Yahweh commanded him,—and took Joshua, and caused him to stand before Eleazar the priest, and before all the assembly;
23and leaned his hands upon him and charged him,—As Yahweh spake by the hand of Moses.

1Y LAS hijas de Salphaad, hijo de Hepher, hijo de Galaad, hijo de Machîr, hijo de Manasés, de las familias de Manasés, hijo de José, los nombres de las cuales eran Maala, y Noa, y Hogla, y Milca, y Tirsa, llegaron;
2Y presentáronse delante de Moisés, y delante del sacerdote Eleazar, y delante de los príncipes, y de toda la congregación, á la puerta del tabernáculo del testimonio, y dijeron:
3Nuestro padre murió en el desierto, el cual no estuvo en la junta que se reunió contra Jehová en la compañía de Coré: sino que en su pecado murió, y no tuvo hijos.
4¿Por qué será quitado el nombre de nuestro padre de entre su familia, por no haber tenido hijo? Danos heredad entre los hermanos de nuestro padre.
5Y Moisés llevó su causa delante de Jehová.
6Y Jehová respondió á Moisés, diciendo:
7Bien dicen las hijas de Salphaad: has de darles posesión de heredad entre los hermanos de su padre; y traspasarás la heredad de su padre á ellas.
8Y á los hijos de Israel hablarás, diciendo: Cuando alguno muriere sin hijos, traspasaréis su herencia á su hija:
9Y si no tuviere hija, daréis su herencia á sus hermanos:
10Y si no tuviere hermanos, daréis su herencia á los hermanos de su padre.
11Y si su padre no tuviere hermanos, daréis su herencia á su pariente más cercano de su linaje, el cual la poseerá: y será á los hijos de Israel por estatuto de derecho, como Jehová mandó á Moisés.
12Y Jehová dijo á Moisés: Sube á este monte Abarim, y verás la tierra que he dado á los hijos de Israel.
13Y después que la habrás visto, tú también serás reunido á tus pueblos, como fué reunido tu hermano Aarón:
14Pues fuisteis rebeldes á mi dicho en el desierto de Zin, en la rencilla de la congregación, para santificarme en las aguas á ojos de ellos. Estas son las aguas de la rencilla de Cades en el desierto de Zin.
15Entonces respondió Moisés á Jehová, diciendo:
16Ponga Jehová, Dios de los espíritus de toda carne, varón sobre la congregación,
17Que salga delante de ellos, y que entre delante de ellos, que los saque y los introduzca; porque la congregación de Jehová no sea como ovejas sin pastor.
18Y Jehová dijo á Moisés: Toma á Josué hijo de Nun, varón en el cual hay espíritu, y pondrás tu mano sobre él;
19Y ponerlo has delante de Eleazar el sacerdote, y delante de toda la congregación; y le darás órdenes en presencia de ellos.
20Y pondrás de tu dignidad sobre él, para que toda la congregación de los hijos de Israel le obedezcan.
21Y él estará delante de Eleazar el sacerdote, y á él preguntará por el juicio del Urim delante de Jehová: por el dicho de él saldrán, y por el dicho de él entrarán, él, y todos los hijos de Israel con él, y toda la congregación.
22Y Moisés hizo como Jehová le había mandado; que tomó á Josué, y le puso delante de Eleazar el sacerdote, y de toda la congregación:
23Y puso sobre él sus manos, y dióle órdenes, como Jehová había mandado por mano de Moisés.
King James Version
1Then came the daughters of Zelophehad, the son of Hepher, the son of Gilead, the son of Machir, the son of Manasseh, of the families of Manasseh the son of Joseph: and these are the names of his daughters; Mahlah, Noah, and Hoglah, and Milcah, and Tirzah.
2And they stood before Moses, and before Eleazar the priest, and before the princes and all the congregation, by the door of the tabernacle of the congregation, saying,
3Our father died in the wilderness, and he was not in the company of them that gathered themselves together against the LORD in the company of Korah; but died in his own sin, and had no sons.
4Why should the name of our father be done away from among his family, because he hath no son? Give unto us therefore a possession among the brethren of our father.
5And Moses brought their cause before the LORD.
6And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
7The daughters of Zelophehad speak right: thou shalt surely give them a possession of an inheritance among their father’s brethren; and thou shalt cause the inheritance of their father to pass unto them.
8And thou shalt speak unto the children of Israel, saying, If a man die, and have no son, then ye shall cause his inheritance to pass unto his daughter.
9And if he have no daughter, then ye shall give his inheritance unto his brethren.
10And if he have no brethren, then ye shall give his inheritance unto his father’s brethren.
11And if his father have no brethren, then ye shall give his inheritance unto his kinsman that is next to him of his family, and he shall possess it: and it shall be unto the children of Israel a statute of judgment, as the LORD commanded Moses.
12And the LORD said unto Moses, Get thee up into this mount Abarim, and see the land which I have given unto the children of Israel.
13And when thou hast seen it, thou also shalt be gathered unto thy people, as Aaron thy brother was gathered.
14For ye rebelled against my commandment in the desert of Zin, in the strife of the congregation, to sanctify me at the water before their eyes: that is the water of Meribah in Kadesh in the wilderness of Zin.
15And Moses spake unto the LORD, saying,
16Let the LORD, the God of the spirits of all flesh, set a man over the congregation,
17Which may go out before them, and which may go in before them, and which may lead them out, and which may bring them in; that the congregation of the LORD be not as sheep which have no shepherd.
18And the LORD said unto Moses, Take thee Joshua the son of Nun, a man in whom is the spirit, and lay thine hand upon him;
19And set him before Eleazar the priest, and before all the congregation; and give him a charge in their sight.
20And thou shalt put some of thine honour upon him, that all the congregation of the children of Israel may be obedient.
21And he shall stand before Eleazar the priest, who shall ask counsel for him after the judgment of Urim before the LORD: at his word shall they go out, and at his word they shall come in, both he, and all the children of Israel with him, even all the congregation.
22And Moses did as the LORD commanded him: and he took Joshua, and set him before Eleazar the priest, and before all the congregation:
23And he laid his hands upon him, and gave him a charge, as the LORD commanded by the hand of Moses.

1Then the daughters of Zelophehad, the son of Hepher, the son of Gilead, the son of Machir, the son of Manasseh, of the families of Manasseh the son of Joseph came near. These are the names of his daughters: Mahlah, Noah, Hoglah, Milcah, and Tirzah.
2They stood before Moses, before Eleazar the priest, and before the princes and all the congregation, at the door of the Tent of Meeting, saying,
3“Our father died in the wilderness. He was not among the company of those who gathered themselves together against the LORD in the company of Korah, but he died in his own sin. He had no sons.
4Why should the name of our father be taken away from among his family, because he had no son? Give to us a possession among the brothers of our father.”
5Moses brought their cause before the LORD.
6The LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
7“The daughters of Zelophehad speak right. You shall surely give them a possession of an inheritance among their father’s brothers. You shall cause the inheritance of their father to pass to them.
8You shall speak to the children of Israel, saying, ‘If a man dies, and has no son, then you shall cause his inheritance to pass to his daughter.
9If he has no daughter, then you shall give his inheritance to his brothers.
10If he has no brothers, then you shall give his inheritance to his father’s brothers.
11If his father has no brothers, then you shall give his inheritance to his kinsman who is next to him of his family, and he shall possess it. This shall be a statute and ordinance for the children of Israel, as the LORD commanded Moses.’”
12The LORD said to Moses, “Go up into this mountain of Abarim, and see the land which I have given to the children of Israel.
13When you have seen it, you also shall be gathered to your people, as Aaron your brother was gathered;
14because in the strife of the congregation, you rebelled against my word in the wilderness of Zin, to honor me as holy at the waters before their eyes.” (These are the waters of Meribah of Kadesh in the wilderness of Zin.)
15Moses spoke to the LORD, saying,
16“Let the LORD, the God of the spirits of all flesh, appoint a man over the congregation,
17who may go out before them, and who may come in before them, and who may lead them out, and who may bring them in, that the congregation of the LORD may not be as sheep which have no shepherd.”
18The LORD said to Moses, “Take Joshua the son of Nun, a man in whom is the Spirit, and lay your hand on him.
19Set him before Eleazar the priest, and before all the congregation; and commission him in their sight.
20You shall give authority to him, that all the congregation of the children of Israel may obey.
21He shall stand before Eleazar the priest, who shall inquire for him by the judgment of the Urim before the LORD. At his word they shall go out, and at his word they shall come in, both he and all the children of Israel with him, even all the congregation.”
22Moses did as the LORD commanded him. He took Joshua, and set him before Eleazar the priest and before all the congregation.
23He laid his hands on him and commissioned him, as the LORD spoke by Moses.
