53. Unto these shall the land be divided for an inheritance according to the number of the names;
54. to the many thou shalt increase their inheritance, and to the few thou shalt diminish their inheritance; to every one shall his inheritance be given according to those that were numbered of him.
55. Notwithstanding the land shall be divided by lot; according to the names of the tribes of their fathers shall they inherit;
56. according to lot shall his inheritance be divided to each, be they many or few in number.
57. And these are the numbered of the Levites, after their families: of Gershon, the family of the Gershonites; of Kohath, the family of the Kohathites; of Merari, the family of the Merarites.
