Numbers 27:9-11

New International Reader's Version

⁹ Suppose the man doesn’t have a daughter. Then give his property to his brothers. ¹⁰ Suppose the man doesn’t have any brothers. Then give his property to his father’s brothers. ¹¹ Suppose his father doesn’t have any brothers. Then give his property to the nearest male relative in his family group. It will belong to him. That is what the law will require of the Israelites. It is just as the Lord commanded me.’ ”
