1 After the plague the LORD said to Moses and Eleazar son of Aaron, the priest,
1 6 And it came to pass after the magefah (plague), that Hashem spoke unto Moshe and unto Eleazar Ben Aharon HaKohen, saying,
2 “Take a census of the whole Israelite community by families—all those twenty years old or more who are able to serve in the army of Israel.”
2 Take the rosh (census) of kol Adat Bnei Yisroel from twenty years old and upward, throughout their bais avot, all that are yotzei tzava (able to go to war) in Yisroel.
3 So on the plains of Moab by the Jordan across from Jericho, Moses and Eleazar the priest spoke with them and said,
3 And Moshe and Eleazar HaKohen spoke with them in the arevot Mo’av (plains of Moav) by Yarden near Yericho, saying,
4 “Take a census of the men twenty years old or more, as the LORD commanded Moses.” These were the Israelites who came out of Egypt:
4 Take the census of the people, from twenty years old and upward, just as Hashem commanded Moshe and the Bnei Yisroel, which went forth out of Eretz Mitzrayim.

54 To a larger group give a larger inheritance, and to a smaller group a smaller one; each is to receive its inheritance according to the number of those listed.
54 To those large of number thou shalt give the larger nachalah, and to few thou shalt give the smaller nachalah: to every one shall his nachalah be given according to those that were numbered of him.
55 Be sure that the land is distributed by lot. What each group inherits will be according to the names for its ancestral tribe.
55 Notwithstanding, HaAretz shall be distributed by goral; according to the Shmot Mattot of their Avot they shall inherit.
56 Each inheritance is to be distributed by lot among the larger and smaller groups.”
