Numbers 26:53-56

53 a“Among these the land shall be divided for inheritance according to the number of names. 54 bTo a large tribe you shall give a large inheritance, and to a small tribe you shall give a small inheritance; every tribe shall be given its inheritance in proportion to its list. 55But the land shall be cdivided by lot. According to the names of the tribes of their fathers they shall inherit. 56Their inheritance shall be divided according to lot between the larger and the smaller.”

Numbers 32:2-14

2So the people of Gad and the people of Reuben came and said to Moses and to Eleazar the priest and to the chiefs of the congregation, 3 dAtaroth, eDibon, Jazer, Nimrah, Heshbon, Elealeh, Sebam, fNebo, and Beon, 4the land gthat the Lord struck down before the congregation of Israel, is a land for livestock, and your servants have livestock.” 5And they said, “If we have found favor in your sight, let this land be given to your servants for a possession. Do not take us across the Jordan.”

6But Moses said to the people of Gad and to the people of Reuben, “Shall your brothers go to the war while you sit here? 7Why will you discourage the heart of the people of Israel from going over into the land that the Lord has given them? 8Your fathers did this, hwhen I sent them from Kadesh-barnea to see the land. 9For when they went up to the Valley of Eshcol and saw the land, they discouraged the heart of the people of Israel from going into the land that the Lord had given them. 10 iAnd the Lord’s anger was kindled on that day, and he swore, saying, 11Surely none of the men who came up out of Egypt, jfrom twenty years old and upward, shall see the land that I swore to give kto Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, because they have not wholly followed me, 12none except Caleb the son of Jephunneh the lKenizzite and Joshua the son of Nun, for mthey have wholly followed the Lord.’ 13And the Lord’s anger was kindled against Israel, and he made them nwander in the wilderness forty years, until oall the generation that had done evil in the sight of the Lord was gone. 14And behold, you have risen in your fathersplace, a brood of sinful men, to increase still more the fierce anger of the Lord against Israel!

Numbers 33:54

54 pYou shall inherit the land by lot according to your clans. qTo a large tribe you shall give a large inheritance, and to a small tribe you shall give a small inheritance. Wherever the lot falls for anyone, that shall be his. According to the tribes of your fathers you shall inherit.

Ezekiel 47:13-23

Division of the Land

13Thus says the Lord God: “This is the boundary
Probable reading; Hebrew The valley of the boundary
by which syou shall divide the land for inheritance among the twelve tribes of Israel. tJoseph shall have two portions.
14And you shall divide equally what uI swore vto give to your fathers. wThis land shall fall to you as your inheritance.

15This shall be the boundary of the land: On the north side, from xthe Great Sea yby way of Hethlon to Lebo-hamath, and on to zZedad,
Septuagint; Hebrew the entrance of Zedad, Hamath
16 abBerothah, Sibraim (which lies on the border between acDamascus and adHamath), as far as Hazer-hatticon, which is on the border of Hauran. 17So the boundary shall run from the sea to aeHazar-enan, which is on the northern border of Damascus, with the border of Hamath to the north.
The meaning of the Hebrew is uncertain
This shall be the north side.
Probable reading; Hebrew and as for the north side


18“On the east side, the boundary shall run between Hauran and Damascus; along the Jordan between ahGilead and the land of Israel; to aithe eastern sea and as far as Tamar.
Compare Syriac; Hebrew  to the eastern sea you shall measure
This shall be the east side.

19“On the south side, it shall run from akTamar as far as althe waters of Meribah-kadesh, from there along amthe Brook of Egypt
Hebrew lacks  of Egypt
to aothe Great Sea. This shall be the south side.

20“On the west side, the Great Sea shall be the boundary to a point apopposite Lebo-hamath. This shall be the west side.

21 aq“So you shall divide this land among you according to the tribes of Israel. 22 arYou shall allot it as an inheritance for yourselves and asfor the sojourners who reside among you and have had children among you. atThey shall be to you as native-born children of Israel. With you they shall be allotted an inheritance among the tribes of Israel. 23In whatever tribe the sojourner resides, there you shall assign him his inheritance, declares the Lord God.

Ezekiel 48:23-29

23“As for the rest of the tribes: from the east side to the west, Benjamin, one portion. 24Adjoining the territory of Benjamin, from the east side to the west, Simeon, one portion. 25Adjoining the territory of Simeon, from the east side to the west, Issachar, one portion. 26Adjoining the territory of Issachar, from the east side to the west, Zebulun, one portion. 27Adjoining the territory of Zebulun, from the east side to the west, Gad, one portion. 28And adjoining the territory of Gad to the south, the boundary shall run aufrom Tamar to the waters of avMeribah-kadesh, from there along the Brook of Egypt
Hebrew lacks  of Egypt
to axthe Great Sea.
That is,  the Mediterranean Sea
29This is the land that azyou shall allot as an inheritance among the tribes of Israel, and these are their portions, declares the Lord God.
