To many thou shalt give the more inheritance, and to few thou shalt give the less inheritance: to every one shall his inheritance be given according to those that were numbered of him.

Verse 54 is found in chapter 26 of Numbers. God establishes principles for distributing the land according to the number of people in each tribe, while the lot determines the location. The Levites again appear separately because of their function. The chapter concludes by recalling that nearly all those originally counted at Sinai had died, except Joshua and Caleb. The new census therefore represents a decisive generational transition.

Vielen sollst du viel zum Erbe geben, und wenigen wenig; jeglichen soll man geben nach ihrer Zahl.
A los más darás mayor heredad, y a los menos menor; y a cada uno se le dará su heredad conforme a sus contados.
A ceux qui sont en plus grand nombre tu donneras une portion plus grande, et à ceux qui sont en plus petit nombre tu donneras une portion plus petite; on donnera à chacun sa portion d'après le dénombrement.
Da’ maggiore eredità a chi è in maggior numero, e minore a chi è in minor numero; diasi a ciascuno eredità a ragione de’ suoi annoverati.
Aos muitos aumentarás a sua herança, e aos poucos diminuirás a sua herança; a cada um se dará a sua herança, segundo os que foram deles contados.
人多的要多給他們產業,人少的要少給他們產業;各照被數的人數分配產業。
