1 Une part échut aussi par le sort à la tribu de Manassé, car il était le premier-né de Joseph. Makir, premier-né de Manassé et père de Galaad, avait eu Galaad et Basan, parce qu’il était un homme de guerre.
2 On donna par le sort une part aux autres fils de Manassé, selon leurs familles, aux fils d’Abiézer, aux fils de Hélek, aux fils d’Asriel, aux fils de Sichem, aux fils de Hépher, aux fils de Schemida: ce sont là les enfants mâles de Manassé, fils de Joseph, selon leurs familles.
3 Tselophchad, fils de Hépher, fils de Galaad, fils de Makir, fils de Manassé, n’eut point de fils, mais il eut des filles dont voici les noms: Machla, Noa, Hogla, Milca et Thirtsa.
