You and Aaron shall number them by their divisions. 1:4 With you there shall be a man of every tribe; everyone head of his fathers" house. 1:5 These are the names of the men who shall stand with you: Of Reuben: Elizur the son of Shedeur. 1:6 Of Simeon: Shelumiel the son of Zurishaddai. 1:7 Of Judah: Nahshon the son of Amminadab. 1:8 Of Issachar: Nethanel the son of Zuar. 1:9 Of Zebulun: Eliab the son of Helon. 1:10 Of the children of Joseph: Of Ephraim: Elishama the son of Ammihud.

1:28 Of the children of Issachar, their generations, by their families, by their fathers" houses, according to the number of the names, from twenty years old and upward, all who were able to go out to war; 1:29 those who were numbered of them, of the tribe of Issachar, were fifty- four thousand four hundred.

1:34 Of the children of Mana.s.seh, their generations, by their families, by their fathers" houses, according to the number of the names, from twenty years old and upward, all who were able to go out to war; 1:35 those who were numbered of them, of the tribe of Mana.s.seh, were thirty- two thousand two hundred.

1:36 Of the children of Benjamin, their generations, by their families, by their fathers" houses, according to the number of the names, from twenty years old and upward, all who were able to go out to war; 1:37 those who were numbered of them, of the tribe of Benjamin, were thirty- five thousand four hundred.

1:44 These are those who were numbered, whom Moses and Aaron numbered, and the princes of Israel, being twelve men: they were each one for his fathers" house. 1:45 So all those who were numbered of the children of Israel by their fathers" houses, from twenty years old and upward, all who were able to go out to war in Israel; 1:46 even all those who were numbered were six hundred three thousand five hundred fifty. 1:47 But the Levites after the tribe of their fathers were not numbered among them. 1:48 For Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying, 1:49 "Only the tribe of Levi you shall not number, neither shall you take a census of them among the children of Israel; 1:50 but appoint the Levites over the Tabernacle of the Testimony, and over all its furnishings, and over all that belongs to it. They shall carry the tabernacle, and all its furnishings; and they shall take care of it, and shall encamp around it. 1:51 When the tabernacle is to move, the Levites shall take it down; and when the tabernacle is to be set up, the Levites shall set it up. The stranger who comes near shall be put to death. 1:52 The children of Israel shall pitch their tents, every man by his own camp, and every man by his own standard, according to their divisions. 1:53 But the Levites shall encamp around the Tabernacle of the Testimony, that there may be no wrath on the congregation of the children of Israel: and the Levites shall be responsible for the Tabernacle of the Testimony."

1:54 Thus the children of Israel did. According to all that Yahweh commanded Moses, so they did.

2:1 Yahweh spoke to Moses and to Aaron, saying, 2:2 "The children of Israel shall encamp every man by his own standard, with the banners of their fathers" houses: at a distance from the Tent of Meeting shall they encamp around it."

2:3 Those who encamp on the east side toward the sunrise shall be of the standard of the camp of Judah, according to their divisions: and the prince of the children of Judah shall be Nahshon the son of Amminadab.

2:4 His division, and those who were numbered of them, were seventy-four thousand six hundred.

2:5 Those who encamp next to him shall be the tribe of Issachar: and the prince of the children of Issachar shall be Nethanel the son of Zuar.

2:10 "On the south side shall be the standard of the camp of Reuben according to their divisions. The prince of the children of Reuben shall be Elizur the son of Shedeur. 2:11 His division, and those who were numbered of it, were forty-six thousand five hundred.

2:14 "The tribe of Gad: and the prince of the children of Gad shall be Eliasaph the son of Reuel. 2:15 His division, and those who were numbered of them, were forty-five thousand six hundred fifty.

2:16 "All who were numbered of the camp of Reuben were one hundred fifty-one thousand four hundred fifty, according to their armies. They shall set out second.

2:17 "Then the Tent of Meeting shall set out, with the camp of the Levites in the midst of the camps. As they encamp, so shall they set out, every man in his place, by their standards.

2:18 "On the west side shall be the standard of the camp of Ephraim according to their divisions: and the prince of the children of Ephraim shall be Elishama the son of Ammihud. 2:19 His division, and those who were numbered of them, were forty thousand five hundred.

2:20 "Next to him shall be the tribe of Mana.s.seh: and the prince of the children of Mana.s.seh shall be Gamaliel the son of Pedahzur. 2:21 His division, and those who were numbered of them, were thirty-two thousand two hundred.

2:22 "The tribe of Benjamin: and the prince of the children of Benjamin shall be Abidan the son of Gideoni. 2:23 His army, and those who were numbered of them, were thirty-five thousand four hundred.

2:24 "All who were numbered of the camp of Ephraim were one hundred eight thousand one hundred, according to their divisions. They shall set out third.

2:27 "Those who encamp next to him shall be the tribe of Asher: and the prince of the children of Asher shall be Pagiel the son of Ochran. 2:28 His division, and those who were numbered of them, were forty-one thousand and five hundred.

2:29 "The tribe of Naphtali: and the prince of the children of Naphtali shall be Ahira the son of Enan. 2:30 His division, and those who were numbered of them, were fifty-three thousand four hundred.

2:31 "All who were numbered of the camp of Dan were one hundred fifty- seven thousand six hundred. They shall set out last by their standards."

2:32 These are those who were numbered of the children of Israel by their fathers" houses. All who were numbered of the camps according to their armies were six hundred three thousand five hundred fifty. 2:33 But the Levites were not numbered among the children of Israel; as Yahweh commanded Moses.

2:34 Thus the children of Israel did. According to all that Yahweh commanded Moses, so they encamped by their standards, and so they set out, everyone by their families, according to their fathers" houses.

3:1 Now this is the history of the generations of Aaron and Moses in the day that Yahweh spoke with Moses in Mount Sinai. 3:2 These are the names of the sons of Aaron: Nadab the firstborn, and Abihu, Eleazar, and Ithamar.

3:3 These are the names of the sons of Aaron, the priests who were anointed, whom he consecrated to minister in the priest"s office. 3:4 Nadab and Abihu died before Yahweh, when they offered strange fire before Yahweh, in the wilderness of Sinai, and they had no children.

Eleazar and Ithamar ministered in the priest"s office in the presence of Aaron their father.

3:5 Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying, 3:6 "Bring the tribe of Levi near, and set them before Aaron the priest, that they may minister to him. 3:7 They shall keep his requirements, and the requirements of the whole congregation before the Tent of Meeting, to do the service of the tabernacle. 3:8 They shall keep all the furnishings of the Tent of Meeting, and the obligations of the children of Israel, to do the service of the tabernacle. 3:9 You shall give the Levites to Aaron and to his sons. They are wholly given to him on the behalf of the children of Israel. 3:10 You shall appoint Aaron and his sons, and they shall keep their priesthood. The stranger who comes near shall be put to death."

3:11 Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying, 3:12 "Behold, I have taken the Levites from among the children of Israel instead of all the firstborn who open the womb among the children of Israel; and the Levites shall be mine: 3:13 for all the firstborn are mine. On the day that I struck down all the firstborn in the land of Egypt I made holy to me all the firstborn in Israel, both man and animal. They shall be mine. I am Yahweh."

3:14 Yahweh spoke to Moses in the wilderness of Sinai, saying, 3:15 "Count the children of Levi by their fathers" houses, by their families.

You shall count every male from a month old and upward."

3:16 Moses numbered them according to the word of Yahweh, as he was commanded.

3:17 These were the sons of Levi by their names: Gershon, and Kohath, and Merari.

3:18 These are the names of the sons of Gershon by their families: Libni and Shimei.

3:19 The sons of Kohath by their families: Amram, and Izhar, Hebron, and Uzziel.

3:20 The sons of Merari by their families: Mahli and Mushi.

These are the families of the Levites according to their fathers"
