⁵¹ This was the list of the people of Israel, ^(A)601,730.

⁵² The Lord spoke to Moses, saying, ^53 (B)“Among these the land shall be divided for inheritance according to the number of names. ^54 (C)To a large tribe you shall give a large inheritance, and to a small tribe you shall give a small inheritance; every tribe shall be given its inheritance in proportion to its list. ⁵⁵ But the land shall be ^(D)divided by lot. According to the names of the tribes of their fathers they shall inherit. ⁵⁶ Their inheritance shall be divided according to lot between the larger and the smaller.”
