⁸ And the sons of Israel give to the Levites these cities and their suburbs, as Jehovah commanded by the hand of Moses, by lot.

³ And the sons of Israel give to the Levites, out of their inheritance, at the command of Jehovah, these cities and their suburbs:

² and the sons of Gad, and the sons of Reuben, come in and speak unto Moses, and unto Eleazar the priest, and unto the princes of the company, saying:

⁵⁴ `And ye have inherited the land by lot, by your families; to the many ye increase their inheritance, and to the few ye diminish their inheritance; whither the lot goeth out to him, it is his; by the tribes of your fathers ye inherit.

³ And the cities have been to them to inhabit, and their suburbs are for their cattle, and for their goods, and for all their beasts.

⁶ and ye describe the land `in' seven portions, and have brought `it' in unto me hither, and I have cast for you a lot here before Jehovah our God;

³³ Into the centre is the lot cast, And from Jehovah `is' all its judgment!

¹⁸ The lot causeth contentions to cease, And between the mighty it separateth.
