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.
4 Elles se présentèrent devant le sacrificateur Éléazar, devant Josué, fils de Nun, et devant les princes, en disant: L’Éternel a commandé à Moïse de nous donner un héritage parmi nos frères. Et on leur donna, selon l’ordre de l’Éternel, un héritage parmi les frères de leur père.
5 Il échut dix portions à Manassé, outre le pays de Galaad et de Basan, qui est de l’autre côté du Jourdain.
6 Car les filles de Manassé eurent un héritage parmi ses fils, et le pays de Galaad fut pour les autres fils de Manassé.
