Luke

1: 9he obtained (lanchanō) [by lot], according to the custom of the priesthood, to enter the sanctuary of the Lord and offer incense.

John

19: 24So they said to one another, "Let us not tear it, but let us obtain (lanchanō) [by lots] to see who will get it." This was to fulfill what the scripture says, "They divided my clothes among themselves, and for my clothing they cast lots."
