3 “Our father died in the desert. He was not one of Korah’s followers who came together against the Lord, but he died because of his own sin, and he had no sons.
4 Our father’s name will die out because he had no sons. Give us property among our father’s relatives.”
5 So Moses brought their case to the Lord,
6 and the Lord said to him,
7 “The daughters of Zelophehad are right; they should certainly get what their father owned. Give them property among their father’s relatives.
8 “Tell the Israelites, ‘If a man dies and has no son, then everything he owned should go to his daughter.
9 If he has no daughter, then everything he owned should go to his brothers.
