13 So Moses instructed the Israelites, saying: “This is the land that you will apportion as your possession by lot,+ just as Jehovah has commanded to give to the nine and a half tribes.

2 Their inheritance was by lot,+ just as Jehovah had commanded through Moses for the nine and a half tribes.+

4 So they presented themselves before El·e·aʹzar+ the priest, Joshua the son of Nun, and the chieftains, saying: “It was Jehovah who commanded Moses to give us an inheritance among our brothers.”+ So at the order of Jehovah, he gave them an inheritance among the brothers of their father.+

6 As for you, map out the land into seven shares, and bring them here to me, and I will cast lots+ here for you before Jehovah our God.
