Even as the Lord commanded Moses, so did the daughters of Zelophehad. ] They married into, the family of their father's tribe, according to the following account.
8
A woman who inherits land in any of the tribes of Israel may marry a man from any family in her ancestor's tribe. In this way every Israelite keeps the land inherited from his ancestors.
9
No land may pass from one tribe to another. Each Israelite tribe must keep the land it inherits."
10
Zelophehad's daughters did as the LORD commanded Moses.
11
Mahlah, Tirzah, Hoglah, Milcah, and Noah married their cousins on their father's side of the family.
12
They married within the families of the descendants of Manasseh, son of Joseph. So their land stayed in the tribe of their father's family.
