Numbers 26:51-56

GOD’S WORD Translation

⁵¹ The total number of Israelite men was 601,730.

⁵² Then the Lord said to Moses, ⁵³ “The land these people will possess must be divided using the list of names ⌞from the census⌟. ⁵⁴ Give more land to larger tribes and less land to smaller ones. Use the totals ⌞from the census⌟ in giving land to each tribe. ⁵⁵ But the land must be divided by drawing lots. The tribes will receive their land based on the names of their ancestors. ⁵⁶ Whether the tribes are large or small, the land must be divided by drawing lots.”
