(A)This is [a]what the Lord has commanded regarding the daughters of Zelophehad, saying, ‘Let them marry [b]whomever they wish; only they must marry within the family of the tribe of their father.’ So (B)no inheritance of the sons of Israel will [c]be transferred from tribe to tribe, for the sons of Israel shall each [d]retain possession of the inheritance of the tribe of his fathers. (C)And every daughter who comes into possession of an inheritance of any tribe of the sons of Israel shall marry one of the family of the tribe of her father, so that the sons of Israel may each possess the inheritance of his fathers.
