1Then spake Yahweh unto Moses in the desert of Sinai in the tent of meeting,—on the first of the second month in the second year by their coming forth out of the land of Egypt saying: 2Reckon ye up the sum of all the assembly of the sons of Israel, by their families by their ancestral houses,—in the counting of names, every male, by their polls; 3from twenty years old and upwards, every one able to go forth to war in Israel,—ye shall number them by their hosts, thou and Aaron; 4and with you, shall be one man for each tribe,—each man, head of his ancestral house, shall be. 5These, then, are the names of the men who shall stand with you,—Of Reuben, Elizur, son of Shedeur; 6Of Simeon, Shelumiel son of Zurishaddai; 7Of Judah, Nahshon, son of Amminadab; 8Of Issachar, Nethanel, son of Zuar; 9Of Zebulun, Eliab, son of Helon; 10Of the sons of Joseph,—Of Ephraim, Elishama son of Ammihud; Of Manasseh, Gamaliel, son of Pedahzur; 11Of Benjamin, Abidan son of Gideoni; 12Of Dan, Ahiezer son of Ammishaddai; 13Of Asher, Pagiel, son of Ochran; 14Of Gad, Eliasaph son of Deuel; 15Of Naphtali, Ahira son of Enan. 16These, are they who had been summoned by the assembly, being princes of the tribes of their fathers,—heads of the thousands of Israel. 17 So then Moses and Aaron took these men, who were distinguished by name; 18all the assembly also, called they together on the first of the second month,—and they declared their pedigree according to their families by their ancestral houses,—in the counting of names from twenty years old and upwards by their polls. 19As Yahweh commanded Moses, so he mustered them in the desert of Sinai. 20And they were [as followeth] —The sons of Reuben, the firstborn of Israel, in their pedigrees—by their families, by their ancestral houses, in the counting of names, by their polls, every male, from twenty years old and upwards, every one able to go forth to war; 21such as were numbered of them as belonging to the tribe of Reuben, forty-six thousand and five hundred. 22Of the sons of Simeon, in their pedigrees by their families by their ancestral houses,—such as were numbered of him, in the counting of names by their polls, every male from twenty years old and upwards, every one able to go forth to war; 23such as were numbered of them as belonging to the tribe of Simeon, fifty-nine thousand and three hundred. 24Of the sons of Gad, in their pedigrees—by their families by their ancestral houses, in the counting of names from twenty years old and upwards, every one able to go forth to war: 25such as were numbered of them as belonging to the tribe of Gad, forty-five thousand and six hundred and fifty. 26Of the sons of Judah, in their pedigrees by their families by their ancestral houses,—in the counting of names, from twenty years old and upwards, every one able to go forth to war; 27such as were numbered of them as belonging to the tribe of Judah, seventy-four thousand and six hundred. 28Of the sons of Issachar, in their pedigrees—by their families by their ancestral houses,—in the counting of names, from twenty year old and upwards, every one able to go forth to war; 29such as were numbered of them as belonging to the tribe of Issachar, fifty-four thousand and four hundred. 30Of the sons of Zebulun, in their pedigrees—by their families by their ancestral houses,—in the counting of names from twenty years old and upwards, every one able to go forth to war; 31such as were numbered of them as belonging to the tribe of Zebulun, fifty-seven thousand and four hundred. 32Of the sons of Joseph—Of the sons of Ephraim, in their pedigrees—by their families by their ancestral houses,—in the counting of names, from twenty years old, and upwards, every one able to go forth to war; 33such as were numbered of them, as belonging to the tribe of Ephraim, forty thousand and five hundred. 34Of the sons of Manasseh, in their pedigrees—by their families by their ancestral houses,—in the counting of names from twenty years old and upwards, every one able to go forth to war; 35such as were numbered of them as belonging to the tribe of Manasseh, thirty-two thousand, and two hundred. 36Of the sons of Benjamin, in their pedigrees by their families, by their ancestral houses,—in the counting of names, from twenty years old, and upwards, every one able to go forth to war; 37such as were numbered of them as belonging to the tribe of Benjamin, thirty-five thousand and four hundred. 38Of the sons of Dan, in their pedigrees by their families by their ancestral houses, in the counting of names from twenty years old and upwards, every one able to go forth to war; 39such as were numbered of them as belonging to the tribe of Dan, sixty-two thousand, and seven hundred. 40Of the sons of Asher, in their pedigrees—by their families by their ancestral houses,—in the counting of names, from twenty years old, and upwards, every one able to go forth to war; 41such as were numbered of them as belonging to the tribe of Asher, forty-one thousand, and five hundred. 42The sons of Naphtali, in their pedigrees by their families by their ancestral houses,—in the counting of names, from twenty years old, and upwards, every one able to go forth to war; 43such as were numbered of them, as belonging to the tribe of Naphtali, fifty-three thousand, and four hundred. 44 These, are they who were numbered, whom Moses and Aaron and the twelve princes of Israel did number, the princes acting each one for his ancestral house. 45So then all they who were numbered of the sons of Israel by their ancestral houses, from twenty years old and upwards, every one able to go forth to war in Israel; 46so then all they who were numbered were six hundred and three thousand and five hundred and fifty. 47 But the Levites by the tribe of their fathers were not numbered in their midst. 48For Yahweh spake unto Moses saying: 49Only the tribe of Levi, shalt thou not number, nor the sum of them, shalt thou reckon up, in the midst of the sons of Israel. 50But do, thou thyself, put the Levites in charge over the habitation of the testimony, and over all the furniture thereof and over all that pertaineth thereto, they, shall bear the habitation, and all the furniture thereof, and they, shall attend thereupon; and, round about the habitation, shall they encamp. 51And, when the habitation is to set forward, the Levites shall take it down, and when the habitation is to be pitched, the Levites, shall set it up, but the stranger that draweth near, shall be put to death. 52So then the sons of Israel shall pitch their tents, every man, near his own camp, and, every man, near his own standard, by their hosts; 53but the Levites, shall pitch their tents round about the habitation of the testimony, that there be no wrath upon the assembly of the sons of Israel,—so shall the Levites keep the watch of the habitation of the testimony. 54Thus did the sons of Israel,—according to all that Yahweh commanded Moses, so, did they.
