For all men shall marry wives of their own tribe and kindred: 8And all women shall take husbands of the same tribe: that the inheritance may remain in the families. 9And that the tribes be not mingled one with another, but remain so 10As they were separated by the Lord. And the daughters of Salphaad did as was commanded: 11And Maala, and Thersa, and Hegla, and Melcha, and Noa were married to the sons of their uncle by their father 12Of the family of Manasses, who was the son of Joseph: and the possession that had been allotted to them, remained in the tribe and family of their father. 13These are the commandments and judgment, which the Lord commanded by the hand of Moses to the children of Israel, in the plains of Moab upon the Jordan over against Jericho. ‹Previous chapterNumbers 35Similar passagesBy tradition and source labelFind similarCompare selectedCompare with similarAsk Deep ThoughtSelect passages to search for parallels.VersionsNumbers 36 across 9 versionsShow all 9WEB - World English BibleKJV - King James VersionASV - American Standard VersionDarby - Darby BibleYLT - Young's Literal TranslationWebster - Webster BibleGeneva - Geneva BibleDouay - Douay-Rheims ChallonerRV1909 - Reina-Valera 1909Tap any verse to select it, then compare selected passages or ask Deep Thought.
