52Then the LORD said to Moses,52The LORD spoke to Moses, "
53“Divide the land among the tribes, and distribute the grants of land in proportion to the tribes’ populations, as indicated by the number of names on the list.53The land is to be divided among them as an inheritance based on the number of names.
54Give the larger tribes more land and the smaller tribes less land, each group receiving a grant in proportion to the size of its population.54Increase the inheritance for a large tribe and decrease it for a small one. Each is to be given its inheritance according to those who were registered in it.
55But you must assign the land by lot, and give land to each ancestral tribe according to the number of names on the list.55The land must be divided by lot; they will receive an inheritance according to the names of their ancestral tribes.
56Each grant of land must be assigned by lot among the larger and smaller tribal groups.” The Tribe of Levi56Each inheritance will be divided by lot among the larger and smaller tribes."
57This is the record of the Levites who were counted according to their clans: The Gershonite clan, named after their ancestor Gershon. The Kohathite clan, named after their ancestor Kohath. The Merarite clan, named after their ancestor Merari.57These were the Levites registered by their clans: the Gershonite clan from Gershon; the Kohathite clan from Kohath; the Merarite clan from Merari.

62The men from the Levite clans who were one month old or older numbered 23,000. But the Levites were not included in the registration of the rest of the people of Israel because they were not given an allotment of land when it was divided among the Israelites.62Those registered were 23,000, every male one month old or more; they were not registered among the other Israelites, because no inheritance was given to them among the Israelites.

65For the LORD had said of them, “They will all die in the wilderness.” Not one of them survived except Caleb son of Jephunneh and Joshua son of Nun.65For the LORD had said to them that they would all die in the wilderness. None of them was left except Caleb son of Jephunneh and Joshua son of Nun.
