27 Ngemva kwalokho amadodakazi kaZelofehadi,+ indodana kaHeferi, indodana kaGiliyadi, indodana kaMakhiri, indodana kaManase, owemuli zakoManase indodana kaJosefa asondela kuMosi. Amabizo awo kwakunguMahila, loNowa, loHogila, loMilikha kanye loThiriza. 2 Ama phambi kukaMosi lo-Eliyazari umphristi labakhokheli+ kanye labo bonke abako-Israyeli emnyango wetende lokuhlangana athi: 3 “Ubaba wafela enkangala kodwa wayengekho phakathi kweqembu labasekeli bakaKhora+ elahlangana ukuze limelane loJehova, yena wazifela ngenxa yesono sakhe njalo wayengelabantwana abangabafana. 4 Kungani kumele ibizo likababa linyamalale kwabosendo lwakhe ngenxa yokuthi wayengelamntwana ongumfana? Sicela lisinike ilifa phakathi kwabafowabo bakababa.” 5 Ngakho uMosi wethula udaba lwawo phambi kukaJehova.+

6 UJehova wasesithi kuMosi: 7 “Lokho okutshiwo ngamadodakazi kaZelofehadi kuqondile. Loba sekutheni kumele uwaphe ilifa phakathi kwabafowabo bakayise njalo udlulisele ilifa likayise kuwo.+
