7 What the daughters of Zelophehad say is right: certainly you are to give them a heritage among their father's brothers: and let the property which would have been their father's go to them.
8 And say to the children of Israel, If a man has no son at the time of his death, let his heritage go to his daughter.
9 And if he has no daughter, then give his heritage to his brothers.
10 And if he has no brothers, then give his heritage to his father's brothers.
11 And if his father has no brothers, then give it to his nearest relation in the family, as his heritage: this is to be a decision made by law for the children of Israel, as the Lord gave orders to Moses.
