⁵² The Lord said to Moses, ⁵³ “The land is to be allotted to them as an inheritance based on the number of names.^{(A) 54} To a larger group give a larger inheritance, and to a smaller group a smaller one; each is to receive its inheritance according to the number^(B) of those listed.^{(C) 55} Be sure that the land is distributed by lot.^(D) What each group inherits will be according to the names for its ancestral tribe. ⁵⁶ Each inheritance is to be distributed by lot among the larger and smaller groups.”

¹³ Moses commanded the Israelites: “Assign this land by lot^(A) as an inheritance.^(B) The Lord has ordered that it be given to the nine and a half tribes,

³³ Then Moses gave to the Gadites,^(A) the Reubenites and the half-tribe of Manasseh^(B) son of Joseph the kingdom of Sihon king of the Amorites^(C) and the kingdom of Og king of Bashan^(D)—the whole land with its cities and the territory around them.^(E)

¹⁴ because the families of the tribe of Reuben, the tribe of Gad and the half-tribe of Manasseh have received their inheritance.^(A)

¹⁵ These two and a half tribes have received their inheritance east of the Jordan across from Jericho, toward the sunrise.”
