Numeri 27:1-7

Listen to Numeri 27:1-7
1 Or le figliuole di Tselofehad, figliuolo di Hefer, figliuolo di Galaad, figliuolo di Makir, figliuolo di Manasse, delle famiglie di Manasse, figliuolo di Giuseppe, che si chiamavano Mahlah, Noah, Hoglah, Milcah e Thirtsah,
2 si accostarono e si presentarono davanti a Mosè, davanti al sacerdote Eleazar, davanti ai principi e a tutta la raunanza all’ingresso della tenda di convegno, e dissero:
3 "Il padre nostro morì nel deserto, e non fu nella compagnia di quelli che si adunarono contro l’Eterno, non fu della gente di Kore, ma morì a motivo del suo peccato, e non ebbe figliuoli.
4 Perché dovrebbe il nome del padre nostro scomparire di mezzo alla sua famiglia s’egli non ebbe figliuoli? Dacci un possesso in mezzo ai fratelli di nostro padre".
5 E Mosè portò la loro causa davanti all’Eterno.
6 E l’Eterno disse a Mosè:
7 "Le figliuole di Tselofehad dicono bene. Sì, tu darai loro in eredità un possesso tra i fratelli del padre loro, e farai passare ad esse l’eredità del padre loro.
