53. "Among these the land shall be divided for an inheritance according to the number of names.

54. To the larger group you shall increase their inheritance, and to the smaller group you shall diminish their inheritance; each shall be given their inheritance according to those who were numbered of them.

55. But the land shall be divided by lot. They shall receive their inheritance according to the names of the tribes of their fathers.

56. According to the selection by lot, their inheritance shall be divided between the larger and the smaller groups."

57. These are those who were numbered of the Levites according to their families: of Gershon, the family of the Gershonites; of Kohath, the family of the Kohathites; of Merari, the family of the Merarites.
