KJV ORIGINAL
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, which shall beget children among you: and they shall be unto you as born in the country among the children of Israel; they shall have inheritance with you among the tribes of Israel.

✦ MADE SIMPLE
Here's how you'll divide up the land: you'll draw lots to figure out who gets what — not just for yourselves, but for the immigrants who've settled down with you and started families. They're going to be treated exactly like they were born here among God's people. They get to inherit land right alongside the tribes of Israel.
⚡ THE BOTTOM LINE
God's kingdom has room for everyone who chooses to stay and build a life there — no matter where they came from.
