Numbers 27:2

Inheritance Laws

1 Then came the daughters of ^aZelophehad the son of Hepher, the son of Gilead, the son of Machir, the son of Manasseh, from the families of Manasseh the son of Joseph; and these were the names of his daughters: Mahlah, Noah, Hoglah, Milcah, and Tirzah.

2 And they stood before Moses, before Eleazar the priest, and before the leaders and all the congregation, by the doorway of the tabernacle of meeting, saying:

3 “Our father ^adied in the wilderness; but he was not in the company of those who gathered together against the Lord, ^bin company with Korah, but he died in his own sin; and he had no sons.

4 Why should the name of our father be ^aremoved from among his family because he had no son? ^bGive us a possession among our father’s brothers.”

5 So Moses ^abrought their case before the Lord.
