According to the lot shall the possession thereof be divided between many and few.

Verse 56 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.

Denn nach dem Los sollst du ihr Erbe austeilen zwischen den vielen und den wenigen.
Conforme a la suerte será repartida su heredad entre el grande y el pequeño.
Su heredad se repartirá según el sorteo, entre el numeroso y el poco numeroso».
C'est par le sort que le pays sera partagé entre ceux qui sont en grand nombre et ceux qui sont en petit nombre.
Spartiscasi l’eredità di ciascuna tribù, grande o piccola, a sorte
Segundo sair a sorte, se repartirá a herança deles entre as tribos de muitos e as de poucos.
要根據抽籤,看人數的多寡,給他們分配產業。」
