1 And the LORD spake unto Moses and Aaron, saying,
2 "The children of Israel shall pitch: every man by his own standard, with the banners of their father's houses, away from the presence of the tabernacle of witness.
3 On the east side, toward the rising of the sun, shall they of the standard of the host of Judah pitch with their arms; and Nahshon the son of Amminadab shall be captain over the sons of Judah:
4 and his host, and the number of them, seventy four thousand and six hundred.
5 And next unto him shall the tribe of Issachar pitch; and Nethanel the son of Zuar captain over the children of Issachar:
6 his host, and the number of them, fifty four thousand and four hundred.
7 And then the tribe of Zebulun; with Eliab the son of Helon, captain over the children of Zebulun:
8 and his host, in the number of them, fifty seven thousand and four hundred.
9 So that all they that pertain unto the host of Judah, are a hundred thousand eighty six thousand and four hundred in their companies: and these shall go in the forefront, when they journey.
10 "And on the south side, the standard of the host of Reuben shall lie with their companies; and the captain over the sons of Reuben, Elizur the son of Shedeur:
11 and his host, and the number of them, forty six thousand, and five hundred.
12 And fast by him shall the tribe of Simeon pitch; and the captain over the sons of Simeon, Shelumiel the son of Zurishaddai:
13 and his host, and the number of them, forty nine thousand and three hundred.
14 And the tribe of Gad also; and the captain over the sons of Gad, Eliasaph the son of Deuel:
15 and his host, and the number of them, forty five thousand six hundred and fifty.
16 So that all the number that pertain unto the host of Reuben, are a hundred thousand, fifty one thousand, four hundred and fifty, with their companies: and they shall be the second in the journey.
17 "And the tabernacle of witness, with the host of the Levites, shall go in the midst of the hosts: as they lie in their tents, even so shall they proceed in the journey, every man in his quarter about their standards.
18 "On the west side, the standard and the host of Ephraim shall lie with their companies; and the captain over the sons of Ephraim, Elishama the son of Ammihud:
19 and his host, and the number of them, forty thousand and five hundred.
20 And fast by him, the tribe of Manasseh; and the captain over the sons of Manasseh, Gamaliel the son of Pedahzur:
21 and his host, and the number of them, thirty two thousand and two hundred.
22 And the tribe of Benjamin also; and the captain over the sons of Benjamin, Abidan the son of Gedeoni:
23 and his host and the number of them thirty five thousand and four hundred.
24 All the number that pertained unto the host of Ephraim, were a hundred thousand eight thousand and a hundred in their hosts: and they shall be the third in the journey.
25 "And the standard and the host of Dan shall lie on the north side with their companies; and the captain over the children of Dan, Ahiezer the son of Ammishaddai:
26 and his host, and the number of them, sixty two thousand and seven hundred.
27 And fast by him shall the tribe of Asher pitch; and the captain over the sons of Asher, Pagiel the son of Ochran:
28 and his host, and the number of them, forty one thousand and five hundred.
29 And the tribe of Naphtali also; and the captain over the children of Naphtali, Ahira the son of Enan:
30 and his host, and the number of them, fifty three thousand and four hundred.
31 So that the whole number, of all that pertained unto the host of Dan, was a hundred thousand fifty seven thousand and six hundred. And they shall be the last in the journey with their standards."
32 These are the sums of the children of Israel in the houses of their fathers, even all the numbers of the hosts with their companies: six hundred thousand three thousand five hundred and fifty.
33 And yet the Levites were not numbered among the children of Israel, as the LORD commanded Moses.
