⁸ And Aaron will make selection from the two goats by the decision of the Lord, one goat for the Lord and one for Azazel.

²³ And they made selection of two, Joseph, named Barsabbas, whose other name was Justus, and Matthias.

²⁴ And they made prayers and said, Lord, having knowledge of the hearts of all men, make clear which of these two has been marked out by you,

²⁵ To take that position as a servant and Apostle, from which Judas by his sin was shut out, so that he might go to his place.

²⁶ And they put it to the decision of chance, and the decision was given for Matthias, and he was numbered with the eleven Apostles.

⁵⁵ But let the distribution of the land be made by the decision of the Lord: by the names of the tribes of their fathers let their heritage be given them.

⁵⁴ And you will take up your heritage in the land by the decision of the Lord, to every family its part; the greater the family the greater its heritage, and the smaller the family the smaller will be its heritage; wherever the decision of the Lord gives to any man his part, that will be his; distribution will be made to you by your fathers' tribes.

¹⁰ And Joshua made the distribution for them in Shiloh by the decision of the Lord, marking out the land for the children of Israel by their divisions.

¹¹ And the first heritage came out for the tribe of Benjamin by their families: and the limit of their heritage went between the children of Judah and the children of Joseph.

⁴¹ Then Saul said to the Lord, the God of Israel, Why have you not given me an answer today? If the sin is in me or in Jonathan my son, O Lord God of Israel, give Urim, and if it is in your people Israel, give Thummim. And by the decision of the Lord, Saul and Jonathan were marked out, and the people went free.

⁴² And Saul said, Give your decision between my son Jonathan and me. And Jonathan was taken.

³³ A thing may be put to the decision of chance, but it comes about through the Lord.

²⁹ This is the land of which distribution is to be made by the decision of the Lord, among the tribes of Israel for their heritage, and these are their heritages, says the Lord.

⁷ And they said to one another, Come, let us put this to the decision of chance and see on whose account this evil has come on us. So they did so, and Jonah was seen to be the man.
