AND the Lord spake with Mosheh in the wilderness of Sinai, in the tabernacle of ordinance, on the first of the month Ijar, which was the second month of the second year from the time of their coming forth from the land of Mizraim, saying:

Take the account of the whole congregation of the Beni Israel, according to the families of their fathers' house, by the number of the names of all the males by their capitations.

From each son twenty years and upwards, every one going out in the host in Israel; thou and Aharon number them by their hosts.

And let there be with you a man of each tribe, a chief of his father's house.

And these are the names of the men who shall stand with you. Of Reuben, Elizur bar Shedeur:

of Shemeon, the leader, Shelumiel bar Zuri-Shaddai:

the prince of Jehudah, Nachshon bar Amminadab:

the prince of Issakar, Nathaniel bar Zuar:

the prince of Zebulon, Eliab bar Chelon:

the prince of the Beni Joseph, of Ephraim, Elishama bar Ammihud: the prince of Menasheh, Gamliel bar Pedazur:

the prince of Dan, Achiezer bar Ammi-shadai:

the prince of Asher, Pagiel bar Achran:

the prince of Gad, Eljasaph bar Dehuel:

the prince of Naphtali, Achira bar Enan.

These (were) the notables of the congregation of the people, chiefs of their fathers' tribes, heads of thousands in Israel these.

And Mosheh and Aharon took these men who are expressed by their names:

and they assembled all the congregation on the first day of the month Ijar, which is the second month, and recensed them by the families of their fathers' house, by the number of their names, from twenty years old and upward by their capitations.

As the Lord commanded Mosheh, they numbered them in the wilderness of Sinai.

And the sons of Reuben, the first-born of Israel by the families of the generations of their fathers' house, in the number of their names by their polls, every male from twenty years old and upward, all going forth in the host,

the sum of the tribe of Reuben, forty-six thousand Five hundred.

Of the families of the Beni Shemeon, after the generations of their fathers' house in the number of their names by their polls, every male from twenty years and upward, every one going forth in the host,

the sum of the tribe of Shemeon, fifty-nine thousand three hundred:

of the family of the Beni Gad, after the generation of their fathers' house, in the number of their names by their polls, every male from twenty years and upward,

the sum of the tribe of Dan, forty-five thousand six hundred and fifty.

of the family of the Beni Jehudah, after the generation of their fathers' house, in the number of their names by their polls, every male from twenty years and upward,

The sum of the tribe of Jehudah seventy-four thousand six hundred:

The sum of the tribe of Issakar, fifty-four thousand four hundred:

The sum of the tribe of Zebulon, fifty-seven thousand four hundred:

of the family of the Beni Joseph of the family of the Beni Ephraim, after the generation of their fathers' house, in the number of their names by their polls, every male from twenty years and upward,

The sum of the tribe of Ephraim, forty thousand five hundred:

of the family of the Beni Menasheh, after the generation of their fathers' house, in the number of their names by their polls, every male from twenty years and upward,

The sum of the tribe of Menasheh, thirty-two thousand two hundred:

of the family of the Beni Benjamin, after the generation of their fathers' house, in the number of their names by their polls, every male from twenty years and upward,

The sum of the tribe of Benjamin, thirty five thousand four hundred:

of the family of the Beni Dan, after the generation of their fathers' house, in the number of their names by their polls, every male from twenty years and upward,

The sum of the tribe of Dan, sixty-two thousand seven hundred:

of the family of the Beni Asher, after the generation of their fathers' house, in the number of their names by their polls, every male from twenty years and upward,

of the family of the Beni Naphtali, after the generation of their fathers' house, in the number of their names by their polls, every male from twenty years and upward,

The sum of the tribe of Naphtali, fifty-three thousand four hundred.

These are the sums of the numbered ones which Mosheh and Aharon, and the princes of Israel, twelve men, a man for each house of their fathers, did number.

And all the sums of the numbered of Beni Israel, according to the house of their fathers, from twenty years old and upward, of every one who goeth forth with the host in Israel.

And all the sums (of the numbered of the Beni Israel) were six hundred and three thousand five hundred and fifty.

But the Levites after their father's tribe were not numbered among them.

For the Lord had spoken with Mosheh, saying:

Nevertheless, the tribe of Levi thou shalt not number, nor take their sum among the children of Israel:

but thou shalt appoint the Levites over the tabernacle of the testimony, and over all its vessels, and whatever things pertain unto it. They shall carry the tabernacle and all its vessels, and do service in it; and round about the tabernacle shall they dwell.

And when the tabernacle is to go forward, the Levites shall take it apart; and when the tabernacle is to be stationary, the Levites are to uprear it: the common person who draweth near will be slain by a flaming fire from before the Lord.

And the sons of Israel shall encamp every one by the place of his own company, every one under his standard according to their hosts.

But the Levites shall encamp round about the tabernacle of the testimony, that there may not be wrath upon the congregation of the children of Israel; and the Levites shall keep charge of the tabernacle of testimony.

And the sons of Israel did according to all that the Lord commanded Mosheh, so did they.
