Numbers 33:53-55

Evangelical Heritage Version

⁵³ You shall take possession of the land and settle in it, because I have given the land to you to possess it. ⁵⁴ You shall distribute the land as a possession by lot according to your clans. For a larger clan you shall increase its inheritance. For a smaller clan you shall decrease its inheritance. Wherever the lot falls for that clan, that will be its portion. You will distribute the land as a possession according to the tribes of your fathers. ⁵⁵ But if you do not drive out the inhabitants of the land before you, then those that you allow to remain will become barbs in your eyes and thorns in your sides. They will cause trouble for you in the land where you will settle.
