Of 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;

Of 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;

Of 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;

Of 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;

Of 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;

The 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;

So 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;

Thus shalt thou give the Levites unto Aaron and unto his sons, - given, given, they are unto him, from among the sons of Israel;

I, therefore, lo! I have taken the Levites out of the midst of the sons of Israel, instead of every firstborn that a mother beareth, from among the sons of Israel, - so shall the Levites be mine;

Number thou the sons of Levi, by their ancestral houses, by their families, - every male, from one month old and upwards, shalt thou number them.

They who were numbered of them in the counting of every male, from one month old, and upwards, - they who were num-bered of them, were seven thousand and five hundred.

In, the counting of every male, from one month old and upwards, there were eight thousand and six hundred, to keep the charge of the sanctuary.

And they who were numbered of them in the counting of every male, from one month old and upwards, were six thousand, and two hundred.

All they who were numbered of the Levites whom Moses and Aaron numbered at the bidding of Yahweh by their families, - every male, from one month old and upwards, were two-and-twenty thousand.

And Yahweh said unto Moses: Number thou every firstborn male belonging to the sons of Israel, from one month old and upwards, - and reckon up the number of their names;

And it was so - that all the firstborn of the males in the counting of names from one month old and upwards of such as were numbered of them, - were two-and-twenty thousand, two hundred and seventy-three.

So Moses took the redemption silver from them who were in excess over them who were redeemed by the Levites:

from the firstborn of the sons of Israel, took he the silver, - a thousand three hundred and sixty-five shekels, by the shekel of the sanctuary,

from thirty years old, and upwards, even unto fifty years, - every one that can enter into the host, to do service in the tent of meeting.

Then shall they remove the fat-ashes from the altar, - and spread over it a wrapper of purple;

from thirty years old and upwards even to fifty years, shalt thou number them, - All that may enter to take rank in the host, to do laborious work in the tent of meeting.

from thirty years old and upwards even to fifty years, shall ye number them, - all that enter into the host, to do laborious work in the tent of meeting,

from thirty years old and upwards, even unto fifty years old, all that might enter the host, to labour in the tent of meeting;

from thirty years old and upwards, even to fifty years old, all that might enter the host, to labour in the tent of meeting,:

from thirty years old and upwards, even unto fifty years old, - all that might enter the host to labour in the tent of meeting;

from thirty years old and upwards, even unto fifty years old, all that might enter, to toil in the work of labouring and in the work of bearing burdens, in the tent of meeting,

and a man shall lie with her carnally, and it shall be concealed from the eyes of her husband and he kept close but, she, hath committed uncleanness, - though witness, there is none against her, and she, hath not been caught;

and the priest shall put her on oath and shall say unto the woman: - If no man hath lain with thee, and if thou hast not turned aside in uncleanness, unto another instead of thy husband, be thou clear from this deadly water that causeth a curse.

Then shall the priest take from the hand of the woman the jealousy meal-offering, - and shall wave the meal-offering before Yahweh, and bring it near unto the altar;

and the priest shall take a handful from the meal-offering, a remembrancer thereof, and make a perfume at the altar, - and afterwards, shall cause the woman to drink the water.

from wine and strong drink, shall he separate himself, neither vinegar of wine nor vinegar of strong drink, shall he drink, - and no liquor of grapes, shall he drink, no grapes fresh or dried, shall he eat.

All the days of his separation, of nothing that is made from the grapevine from the seeds even to the skin, shall he eat.

Then shall the priest take the shoulder far boiling from the ram, and one unleavened round cake from the basket, and one unleavened thin cake, - and place them on the hands, of the Separate One after he hath shaven off his hair of separation;

This, was the offering for the dedication of the altar in the day when it was anointed, from the princes of Israel, - twelve chargers of silver twelve tossing bowls of silver, twelve spoons of gold;

And when Moses entered into the tent of meeting, that He might speak with him, then heard he the Voice speaking unto him from off the propitiatory that was upon the ark of the testimony, from between the two cherubim, - so He spake unto him.

and Aaron shall offer the Levites as a wave-offering before Yahweh, from among the sons of Israel, - so shall they be for performing the laborious work of Yahweh.

For, given, given, they are unto me, out of the midst of the sons of Israel, - instead of every firstborn that a mother beareth from among the sons of Israel, have I taken them unto me.

And the Levites accepted the cleansing from sin and washed their clothes, and Aaron offered them as a wave-offering before Yahweh, - and Aaron put a propitiatory-covering over them to make them pure.

This is what concerneth the Levites, - from twenty-five years old and upwards, shall they enter to take rank in the host, for doing the laborious work of the tent of meeting;

but from the age of fifty years, shall they retire from taking rank in the labour, and shall do laborious work no more;

But as for the man who is, clean, and no a journey, doth not chance to be and yet faileth to keep the passover, that person shall he cut off from among his kinsfolk, - for the oblation of Yahweh, hath he not offered in its appointed season, his own sin, shall, that man, bear.

but at the bidding of the upgoings of the cloud from off the tent, then, after that, the sons of Israel set forward, - and in the place where the cloud abode, there the sons of Israel encamped:

And, so it was, when the cloud would be from evening until morning, as soon as the cloud went up in the morning, so soon did they set forward: whether by day or by night, as soon as the cloud went up, so soon did they set forward.

And when ye go into war in your land against thee assailant that assaileth you, then shall ye blow an alarm with the trumpets, - and bring yourselves to mind before Yahweh your God, and be saved, from your enemies,

And so it came to pass in the second year, in the second month on the twentieth of the month, that the cloud lifted itself up, from off the habitation of the testimony;

and the sons of Israel set forward by their removals from the desert of Sinai, and then the cloud abode in the desert of Paran.

So then they went forward, from the mountain of Yahweh, a journey of three days, - and the ark of the covenant of Yahweh, was going before them a journey of three days, to search out for them a resting-place,

Then said Yahweh unto Moses - Gather thou unto me seventy men, from among the elders of Israel, of whom thou knowest that they are elders of the people and their overseers, - then shalt thou take them unto the tent of meeting, and they shall station themselves there with thee.

And Moses went forth and spake unto the people the words of Yahweh, - and gathered together seventy men from among the elders of the people, and caused them to stand round about the tent.

Then responded Joshua son of Nun the attendant of Moses from his youth, and said, - My lord Moses forbid them!

Now, a wind, had sprung up, from Yahweh, and cut off quails from the sea, and let them lie over the camp - as it were a days journey here and a days journey there, round about the amp, - and as it were two cubits on the face of the land.

From Kibroth-hattaavah, the people set forward to Hazeroth, - and they remained in Hazeroth.

And, when, the cloud, removed from off the tent, - lo! Miriam, leprous, like snow! And Aaron turned unto Miriam and lo! -- leprous!

Then afterwards, did the people set forward from Hazeroth, and encamped in the desert of Paran.

So they went up, and spied out the land, - from the wilderness of Zin unto Rehob at the entering in of Hamath.

And they entered as far as the ravine of Eschol, and cut down, from thence a branch with one cluster of gropes, and bare it on a pole between two, - also of the pomegranates and of the figs.

That place, was called, The Ravine of Eschol - on account of the cluster, which was cut down from thence by the sons of Israel.

And they returned from spying out the land, - at the end of forty days.

Only against Yahweh, do not rebel. Do not, ye, fear the people of the land, For our food, they are, - Their shade hath departed, from over them. And Yahweh is with us, Do not fear them!

Pardon I beseech thee, the iniquity of this people, According to the greatness of thy lovingkindness, - And according as thou hast forgiven this people, from Egypt even thus far.

In this desert, shall your dead bodies fall And none of you who were numbered in all your counting, from twenty years old and upwards, - who have murmured against me,

For, the Amalekites and the Canaanites, are there before you, So shall ye fall by the sword, - For inasmuch as ye have turned back from following Yahweh, Therefore will Yahweh not be with you.

and ye would offer, as an altar-flame unto Yahweh an ascending-offering or a sacrifice, for celebrating a vow or as a freewill-offering, or in your appointed seasons, - by way of offering a satisfying odour unto Yahweh, from the herd or from the flock,

even all that Yahweh hath given unto you in command, by the hand of Moses, - from the day that Yahweh gave command, and onward unto your generations,

then shall it be - if, any from the eyes of the assembly, it hath been done by mistake, that all the assembly shall offer one choice young bullock for an ascending-sacrifice as a satisfying odour unto Yahweh, with the meal-offering thereof and the drink-offering thereof, according to the regulation, - and one young he-goat as a sin-bearer.

Is it too small a thing for you that the God of Israel hath separated you from the assembly of Israel, to bring you near unto himself, - to do the laborious work of the habitation of Yahweh, and to stand before the assembly, to wait upon them?

Then was Moses very angry, and he said unto Yahweh, Do not thou have respect unto their meal-offering. Not one ass, from them, have I taken, neither have I wronged one of them.

Speak unto the assembly, saying, - Get ye up from round about the habitation of Korah, Dathan and Abiram.

And he spake unto the assembly, saying - Remove I pray you from beside the tents of these lawless men, and do not touch aught that pertaineth unto them, - lest ye be carried off, in all their sins.

So they went up from beside the habitation of Korah, Dathan and Abiram on every side, - and, Dathan and Abiram, came out and stationed themselves at the entrance of their tents, with their wives and their sons and their little ones.

Fire also came forth, from Yahweh, - and consumed the two hundred and fifty men, who offered the incense.

Then said Moses unto Aaron - Take the censer and place thereon fire, from off the altar, and put incense thereon , and, going quickly into the assembly, put a propitiatory-covering over them, - for wrath hath gone forth from before Yahweh the plague, hath begun.

So shall it come to pass, that, the man whom I shall choose, his staff, shall bud, - so will I cause to cease from against me the murmurings of the sons of Israel, wherewith they, are murmuring against you.

So then Moses brought forth all the staves, from before Yahweh, unto all the sons of Israel, - and they saw and took, each man his own staff.

And, as to the redemption price thereof, from a month old, shalt thou redeem, by thine estimate five shekels of silver by the shekel of the sanctuary, - twenty gerahs, it is.

Unto the Levites, therefore shalt thou speak and shalt say unto them, When ye shall take of the sons of Israel the tenth which I have given unto you from them as your inheritance, then shall ye offer up therefrom the heave-offering of Yahweh, a tenth of the tenth.

Thus, shall ye also, offer up the heave-offering of Yahweh, out of all your tenths which ye shall take from the sons of Israel, - and give therefrom the heave-offering of Yahweh, unto Aaron the priest.

He, shall cleanse himself from sin therewith on the third day, then on the seventh day, shall he be clean, - but if he cleanse not himself from sin on the third day, then on the seventh day, shall he not be clean,

Whoso-ever toucheth the dead the person of the human being that dieth and doth not cleanse himself from sin, the habitation of Yahweh, hath he made unclean; that person therefore shall be cut off out of Israel, - because, the water of separation, was not dashed upon him, unclean, shall he be, his uncleanness is yet upon him.

and the clean person shall sprinkle upon the unclean, on the third day, and on the seventh day, - so shall he cleanse himself from sin, on the seventh day, and shall wash his clothes, and bathe in water and be clean in the evening.

But in the ease of the man who shall be unclean and shall not cleanse himself from sin, that person shall be cut off, out of the midst of the convocation, - for, the sanctuary of Yahweh, hath he made unclean, the water of separation, hath not been dashed upon him unclean, he is.

And Moses and Aaron went in from the presence of the multitude unto the entrance of the tent of meeting, and fell upon their faces, - and the glory of Yahweh appeared unto them.

And Moses took the staff from before Yahweh, - as he commanded him.

And Moses sent messengers from Kadesh, unto the king of Edom, - Thus, saith thy brother Israel, Thou thyself, knowest all the distress which befell us;

Thus did Edom refuse to give Israel passage through his boundary, - and Israel turned away from him.

Then set they forward from Kadesh, - and the sons of Israel. all the assembly, came in to Mount Hor.

Then brake they up from Mount Hor, by way of the Red Sea, to go round the land of Edom, - and the soul of the people became impatient because of the way,

Then tame the people of Israel unto Moses and said - We have sinned in that we spake against Yahweh and against thee, Pray thou unto Yahweh, that he may take from us the serpent. So Moses prayed for the people.

And they brake up from Oboth, - and encamped in Ije-Abarim, in the desert which is over against Moab, towards the rising of the sun.

From thence, brake they up, - and encamped in the ravine of Zered.

From thence, brake they up, and encamped on the other side of Arnon which is in the desert, that cometh forth out of the boundary of the Amorites, - for, Arnon, is the boundary of Moab, between Moab and the Amorites.

And from thence, towards Beer, - the same, is the well whereof Yahweh said unto Moses, Gather together the people, that I may give them water.

A well! - princes digged it, Nobles of the people, delved it, With a sceptre, With their staves. And, from the desert, to Mattanah;

and from Mattanah, to Nahaliel; and from Nahaliel, to Bamoth;

and, from Bamoth of the valley, which is in the field-country of Moab, to the top of Pisgah, - which over-looketh Jeshimon.

And Israel smote him with the edge of the sword, - and took possession of his land, from Arnon unto Jabbok, unto the sons of Ammon, for strong, was the boundary of the sons of Ammon.

and Moab shrank with great fear from the presence of the people because, many, they were, - and Moab was alarmed at the presence of the sons of Israel.

And they came in unto Balaam, - and said unto him - Thus, said Balak son of Zipper, Do not be withheld, I pray thee from coming unto me:

And the ass hath seen me, and hath turned aside at ray presence these three times: Unless she had turned aside from my presence, yea now even thee, had I slain, but, her, had I suffered to live.

And it came to pass in the morning, that Balak took Balaam, and brought him up the high places of Baal, - and he saw from thence the utmost part of the people.
