Numbers 26:51-56
1599 Geneva Bible
51 These are the [a]numbers of the children of Israel: six hundred and one thousand seven hundred and thirty.
52 ¶ And the Lord spake unto Moses, saying,
53 Unto these the land shall be divided for an inheritance, according to the number of [b]names.
54 (A)To many thou shalt give the more inheritance, and to few thou shalt give less inheritance: to every one according to his number shall be given his inheritance.
55 Notwithstanding, the land shall be (B)divided by lot: according to the names of the tribes of their fathers they shall inherit:
56 According to the lot shall the possession thereof be divided between many and few.
