40 So all the cities for the children of Merari by their families, which were remaining of the families of the Levites, were by their lot twelve cities.

41 All the cities of the Levites within the possession of the children of Israel were forty and eight cities with their suburbs.

45 There failed not ought of any good thing which the LORD had spoken unto the house of Israel; all came to pass.

5 But take diligent heed to do the commandment and the law, which Moses the
