Ezekiel 47:13-23
Thus saith the Lord Jehovah: This shall be the border, whereby ye shall divide the land for inheritance according to the twelve tribes of Israel: Joseph shall have two portions.And ye shall inherit it, one as well as another; for I sware to give it unto your fathers: and this land shall fall unto you for inheritance.And this shall be the border of the land: On the north side, from the great sea, by the way of Hethlon, unto the entrance of Zedad;Hamath, Berothah, Sibraim, which is between the border of Damascus and the border of Hamath; Hazer- hatticon, which is by the border of Hauran.And the border from the sea, shall be Hazar- enon at the border of Damascus; and on the north northward is the border of Hamath. This is the north side.And the east side, between Hauran and Damascus and Gilead, and the land of Israel, shall be the Jordan; from the north border, unto the east sea shall ye measure. This is the east side.And the south side southward shall be from Tamar as far as the waters of Meriboth- kadesh, to the brook of Egypt, unto the great sea. This is the south side southward.And the west side shall be the great sea, from the south border as far as over against the entrance of Hamath. This is the west side.So shall ye divide this land unto you according to the tribes of Israel.And it shall come to pass, that ye shall divide it by lot for an inheritance unto you and to the strangers that sojourn among you, who shall beget children among you; and they shall be unto you as the home- born among the children of Israel; they shall have inheritance with you among the tribes of Israel.And it shall come to pass, that in what tribe the stranger sojourneth, there shall ye give him his inheritance, saith the Lord Jehovah.

Numbers 33:54
And ye shall inherit the land by lot according to your families; to the more ye shall give the more inheritance, and to the fewer thou shalt give the less inheritance: wheresoever the lot falleth to any man, that shall be his; according to the tribes of your fathers shall ye inherit.

Numbers 26:53-56
Unto these the land shall be divided for an inheritance according to the number of names.To the more thou shalt give the more inheritance, and to the fewer thou shalt give the less inheritance: to every one according to those that were numbered of him shall his inheritance be given.Notwithstanding, the land shall be divided by lot: according to the names of the tribes of their fathers they shall inherit.According to the lot shall their inheritance be divided between the more and the fewer.

Numbers 32:2-14
the children of Gad and the children of Reuben came and spake unto Moses, and to Eleazar the priest, and unto the princes of the congregation, saying,Ataroth, and Dibon, and Jazer, and Nimrah, and Heshbon, and Elealeh, and Sebam, and Nebo, and Beon,the land which Jehovah smote before the congregation of Israel, is a land for cattle; and thy servants have cattle.And they said, If we have found favor in thy sight, let this land be given unto thy servants for a possession; bring us not over the Jordan.And Moses said unto the children of Gad, and to the children of Reuben, Shall your brethren go to the war, and shall ye sit here?And wherefore discourage ye the heart of the children of Israel from going over into the land which Jehovah hath given them?Thus did your fathers, when I sent them from Kadesh- barnea to see the land.For when they went up unto the valley of Eshcol, and saw the land, they discouraged the heart of the children of Israel, that they should not go into the land which Jehovah had given them.And Jehovah’s anger was kindled in that day, and he sware, saying,Surely none of the men that came up out of Egypt, from twenty years old and upward, shall see the land which I sware unto Abraham, unto Isaac, and unto Jacob; because they have not wholly followed me:save Caleb the son of Jephunneh the Kenizzite, and Joshua the son of Nun; because they have wholly followed Jehovah.And Jehovah’s anger was kindled against Israel, and he made them wander to and fro in the wilderness forty years, until all the generation, that had done evil in the sight of Jehovah, was consumed.And, behold, ye are risen up in your fathers’ stead, an increase of sinful men, to augment yet the fierce anger of Jehovah toward Israel.
