53`To these is the land apportioned by inheritance, by the number of names;
54to the many thou dost increase their inheritance, and to the few thou dost diminish their inheritance; [to] each according to his numbered ones is given his inheritance.
55`Only by lot is the land apportioned, by the names of the tribes of their fathers they inherit;
56according to the lot is their inheritance apportioned between many and few.`
57And these [are] numbered ones of the Levite by their families: of Gershon [is] the family of the Gershonite; of Kohath the family of the Kohathite; of Merari the family of the Merarite.
