3. So by command of the Lord the people of Israel gave to the Levites the following cities and pasturelands out of their inheritance.
4. The lot came out for the clans of the Kohathites. So those Levites who were descendants of Aaron the priest received by lot from the tribes of Judah, Simeon, and Benjamin, thirteen cities.
