NUMBERS 27
1 Then the daughters of Zelophehad came forward. Zelophehad was son
of Hepher son of Gilead son of Machir son of Manasseh son of Joseph, a member
of the Manassite clans. The names of his daughters were: Mahlah, Noah, Hoglah,
Milcah, and Tirzah.
2 They stood before Moses, Eleazar the priest, the leaders, and all
the congregation, at the entrance of the tent of meeting, and they said,
3 "Our father died in the wilderness; he was not among the
company of those who gathered themselves together against the Lord in the
company of Korah, but died for his own sin; and he had no sons.
4 Why should the name of our father be taken away from his clan
because he had no son? Give to us a possession among our father's
brothers."
5 Moses brought their case before the Lord.
6 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
7 The daughters of Zelophehad are right in what they are saying; you
shall indeed let them possess an inheritance among their father's brothers and
pass the inheritance of their father on to them.
8 You shall also say to the Israelites, "If a man dies, and has
no son, then you shall pass his inheritance on to his daughter.
9 If he has no daughter, then you shall give his inheritance to his
brothers.
10 If he has no brothers, then you shall give his inheritance to his
father's brothers.
11 And if his father has no brothers, then you shall give his
inheritance to the nearest kinsman of his clan, and he shall possess it. It
shall be for the Israelites a statute and ordinance, as the Lord commanded
Moses."
12 The Lord said to Moses, "Go up this mountain of the Abarim
range, and see the land that I have given to the Israelites.
13 When you have seen it, you also shall be gathered to your people,
as your brother Aaron was,
14 because you rebelled against my word in the wilderness of Zin when
the congregation quarrelled with me. You did not show my holiness before their
eyes at the waters." (These are the waters of Meribath-kadesh in the
wilderness of Zin.)
15 Moses spoke to the Lord, saying,
16 "Let the Lord, the God of the spirits of all flesh, appoint
someone over the congregation
17 who shall go out before them and come in before them, who shall
lead them out and bring them in, so that the congregation of the Lord may not be
like sheep without a shepherd."
18 So the Lord said to Moses, "Take Joshua son of Nun, a man in
whom is the spirit, and lay your hand upon him;
19 have him stand before Eleazar the priest and all the congregation,
and commission him in their sight.
20 You shall give him some of your authority, so that all the
congregation of the Israelites may obey.
21 But he shall stand before Eleazar the priest, who shall inquire
for him by the decision of the Urim before the Lord; at his word they shall go
out, and at his word they shall come in, both he and all the Israelites with
him, the whole congregation."
22 So Moses did as the Lord commanded him. He took Joshua and had him
stand before Eleazar the priest and the whole congregation;
23he laid his hands on him and commissioned him—as the Lord had directed
through Moses.

1 The Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
2 Command the Israelites, and say to them: My offering, the food for
my offerings by fire, my pleasing odour, you shall take care to offer to me at
its appointed time.
3 And you shall say to them, this is the offering by fire that you
shall offer to the Lord: two male lambs a year old without blemish, daily, as a
regular offering.
4 One lamb you shall offer in the morning and the other lamb you
shall offer at twilight;
5 also one-tenth of an ephah of choice flour for a grain offering,
mixed with one-fourth of a hin of beaten oil.
6 It is a regular burnt offering, ordained at Mount Sinai for a
pleasing odour, an offering by fire to the Lord.
7 Its drink offering shall be one-fourth of a hin for each lamb; in
the sanctuary you shall pour out a drink offering of strong drink to the
Lord.
8 The other lamb you shall offer at twilight with a grain offering
and a drink offering like the one in the morning; you shall offer it as an
offering by fire, a pleasing odour to the Lord.
9 On the sabbath day: two male lambs a year old without blemish, and
two-tenths of an ephah of choice flour for a grain offering, mixed with oil,
and its drink offering—
10 this is the burnt offering for every Sabbath, in addition to the
regular burnt offering and its drink offering.
11 At the beginnings of your months you shall offer a burnt offering
to the Lord: two young bulls, one ram, seven male lambs a year old without

offering, mixed with oil, for each bull; and two-tenths of choice flour for a
grain offering, mixed with oil, for the one ram;
13 and one-tenth of choice flour mixed with oil as a grain offering
for every lamb—a burnt offering of pleasing odour, an offering by fire to the
Lord.
14 Their drink offerings shall be half a hin of wine for a bull,
one-third of a hin for a ram, and one-fourth of a hin for a lamb. This is the
burnt offering of every month throughout the months of the year.
15 And there shall be one male goat for a sin offering to the Lord;
it shall be offered in addition to the regular burnt offering and its drink
offering.
16 On the fourteenth day of the first month there shall be a Passover

19 You shall offer an offering by fire, a burnt offering to the Lord:
two young bulls, one ram, and seven male lambs a year old; see that they are

three-tenths of an ephah shall you offer for a bull, and two-tenths for a
ram;
21 one-tenth shall you offer for each of the seven lambs;
22also one male goat for a sin offering, to make atonement for you.
23 You shall offer these in addition to the burnt offering of the
morning, which belongs to the regular burnt offering.
24 In the same way you shall offer daily, for seven days, the food of
an offering by fire, a pleasing odour to the Lord; it shall be offered in
addition to the regular burnt offering and its drink offering.
25 And on the seventh day you shall have a holy convocation; you
shall not work at your occupations.
26 On the day of the first fruits, when you offer a grain offering of
new grain to the Lord at your festival of weeks, you shall have a holy
convocation; you shall not work at your occupations.
27 You shall offer a burnt offering, a pleasing odour to the Lord:
two young bulls, one ram, seven male lambs a year old.
28 Their grain offering shall be of choice flour mixed with oil,
three-tenths of an ephah for each bull, two-tenths for one ram,
29 one-tenth for each of the seven lambs;
30 with one male goat, to make atonement for you.
31 In addition to the regular burnt offering with its grain offering,
you shall offer them and their drink offering. They shall be without blemish.
