Numbers 26:52-56

New American Standard Bible

⁵² Then the Lord spoke to Moses, saying, ⁵³ “^[a]Among these the land shall be divided as an inheritance according to the number of names. ^54 (A)To a larger group you shall increase their inheritance, and to a smaller group you shall decrease their inheritance; each shall be given their inheritance corresponding to the total of those who were numbered of them. ⁵⁵ But the land shall be ^(B)divided by lot. They shall receive their inheritance according to the names of the tribes of their fathers. ⁵⁶ Corresponding to the selection by lot, their inheritance shall be divided between the larger and the smaller groups.”
