Numbers 27:2-4

Amplified Bible, Classic Edition

² They stood before Moses, Eleazar the priest, and the leaders, and all the congregation at the door of the Tent of Meeting, saying,

³ Our father died in the wilderness. He was not among those who assembled together against the Lord in the company of Korah, but died for his own sin [as did all those who rebelled at Kadesh], and he had no sons.^(A)

⁴ Why should the name of our father be removed from his family because he had no son? Give to us a possession among our father’s brethren.
