Moses brought their case before the Lord.

7
The daughters of Zelophehad are right in what they are saying; you shall indeed let them possess an inheritance among their father's brothers and pass the inheritance of their father on to them.
8
You shall also say to the Israelites, "If a man dies, and has no son, then you shall pass his inheritance on to his daughter.
