Yahweh spoke to Moses and said,

53 Ile ardhi itagawanywa kati ya wanaume hawa kama urithi wao kwa kufuata idadi ya majina yao.

“The land must be divided among these men as an inheritance according to the number of their names.

54 Kwa zile koo kubwa utawagawia urithi mkubwa, na kwa koo ndogo ndogo utawagawia urithi kidogo. Kwa kila familia utawapa urithi kufuata idadi ya wanaume waliohesabiwa.

To the larger clans you must give more inheritance, and to the smaller clans you must give less inheritance. To every family you must give an inheritance according to the number of men who were counted.

55 Lakini ardhi itagawiwa kwa kupigiwa kura. Watairithi nchi kama itakavyogawiwa kwa kufuata koo za mababu.

However, the land must be divided by random lots. They must inherit the land as it will be divided among their ancestors' tribes.

56 Urithi huu utagiwiwa kufuata koo kubwa na ndogo, watagawiwa kwa kufuata kura zitakavyokuwa.

Their inheritance must be divided among the larger and the smaller clans, distributed to them by random lot.”

For Yahweh had said that all of those people would certainly die in the wilderness. There was not a man left among them, except Caleb son of Jephunneh and Joshua son of Nun.
