Numbers 26:52-56

New Living Translation

⁵² Then the Lord said to Moses, ⁵³ “Divide the land among the tribes, and distribute the grants of land in proportion to the tribes’ populations, as indicated by the number of names on the list. ⁵⁴ Give the larger tribes more land and the smaller tribes less land, each group receiving a grant in proportion to the size of its population. ⁵⁵ But you must assign the land by lot, and give land to each ancestral tribe according to the number of names on the list. ⁵⁶ Each grant of land must be assigned by lot among the larger and smaller tribal groups.”
