1 Falou mais o Senhor a Moisés, no deserto do Sinai, na tenda da congregação, no primeiro dia do segundo mês, no segundo ano da sua saída da terra do Egito, dizendo: 2 Tomai a soma de toda a congregação dos filhos de Israel, segundo as suas gerações, segundo a casa de seus pais, conforme o número dos nomes de todo varão, cabeça por cabeça; 3 da idade de vinte anos para cima, todos os que saem à guerra em Israel, a estes contareis segundo os seus exércitos, tu e Arão. 4 Estará convosco de cada tribo um homem que seja cabeça da casa de seus pais. 5 Estes, pois, são os nomes dos homens que estarão convosco: De Rúben, Elizur, filho de Sedeur; 6 de Simeão, Selumiel, filho de Zurisadai; 7 de Judá, Naassom, filho de Aminadabe; 8 de Issacar, Natanael, filho de Zuar; 9 de Zebulom, Eliabe, filho de Helom; 10 dos filhos de José: de Efraim, Elisama, filho de Amiúde, e de Manassés, Gamaliel, filho de Pedazur; 11 de Benjamim, Abidã, filho de Gideoni; 12 de Dã, Aiezer, filho de Amisadai; 13 de Aser, Pagiel, filho de Ocrã; 14 de Gade, Eliasafe, filho de Deuel; 15 de Naftali, Aira, filho de Enã. 16 Estes foram os chamados da congregação, os príncipes das tribos de seus pais, os cabeças dos milhares de Israel.

17 Então, tomaram Moisés e Arão a estes homens, que foram declarados pelos seus nomes, 18 e ajuntaram toda a congregação no primeiro dia do segundo mês, e declararam a sua descendência segundo as suas famílias, segundo a casa de seus pais, pelo número dos nomes dos de vinte anos para cima, cabeça por cabeça; 19 como o Senhor ordenara a Moisés, assim os contou no deserto do Sinai.

20 Foram, pois, os filhos de Rúben, o primogênito de Israel, as suas gerações, pelas suas famílias, segundo a casa de seus pais, pelo número dos nomes, cabeça por cabeça, todo varão de vinte anos para cima, todos os que podiam sair à guerra, 21 foram contados deles, da tribo de Rúben, quarenta e seis mil e quinhentos.

22 Dos filhos de Simeão, as suas gerações, pelas suas famílias, segundo a casa de seus pais, os seus contados, pelo número dos nomes, cabeça por cabeça, todo varão de vinte anos para cima, todos os que podiam sair à guerra, 23 foram contados deles, da tribo de Simeão, cinquenta e nove mil e trezentos.

24 Dos filhos de Gade, as suas gerações, pelas suas famílias, segundo a casa de seus pais, pelo número dos nomes dos de vinte anos para cima, todos os que podiam sair à guerra, 25 foram contados deles, da tribo de Gade, quarenta e cinco mil e seiscentos e cinquenta.

26 Dos filhos de Judá, as suas gerações, pelas suas famílias, segundo a casa de seus pais, pelo número dos nomes dos de vinte anos para cima, todos os que podiam sair à guerra, 27 foram contados deles, da tribo de Judá, setenta e quatro mil e seiscentos.

28 Dos filhos de Issacar, as suas gerações, pelas suas famílias, segundo a casa de seus pais, pelo número dos nomes dos de vinte anos para cima, todos os que podiam sair à guerra, 29 foram contados deles, da tribo de Issacar, cinquenta e quatro mil e quatrocentos.

30 Dos filhos de Zebulom, as suas gerações, pelas suas famílias, segundo a casa de seus pais, pelo número dos nomes dos de vinte anos para cima, todos os que podiam sair à guerra, 31 foram contados deles, da tribo de Zebulom, cinquenta e sete mil e quatrocentos.

32 Dos filhos de José, dos filhos de Efraim, as suas gerações, pelas suas famílias, segundo a casa de seus pais, pelo número dos nomes dos de vinte anos para cima, todos os que podiam sair à guerra, 33 foram contados deles, da tribo de Efraim, quarenta mil e quinhentos.

34 Dos filhos de Manassés, as suas gerações, pelas suas famílias, segundo a casa de seus pais, pelo número dos nomes dos de vinte anos para cima, todos os que podiam sair à guerra, 35 foram contados deles, da tribo de Manassés, trinta e dois mil e duzentos.

36 Dos filhos de Benjamim, as suas gerações, pelas suas famílias, segundo a casa de seus pais, pelo número dos nomes dos de vinte anos para cima, todos os que podiam sair à guerra, 37 foram contados deles, da tribo de Benjamim, trinta e cinco mil e quatrocentos.

38 Dos filhos de Dã, as suas gerações, pelas suas famílias, segundo a casa de seus pais, pelo número dos nomes dos de vinte anos para cima, todos os que podiam sair à guerra, 39 foram contados deles, da tribo de Dã, sessenta e dois mil e setecentos.

40 Dos filhos de Aser, as suas gerações, pelas suas famílias, segundo a casa de seus pais, pelo número dos nomes dos de vinte anos para cima, todos os que podiam sair à guerra, 41 foram contados deles, da tribo de Aser, quarenta e um mil e quinhentos.

42 Dos filhos de Naftali, as suas gerações, pelas suas famílias, segundo a casa de seus pais, pelo número dos nomes dos de vinte anos para cima, todos os que podiam sair à guerra, 43 foram contados deles, da tribo de Naftali, cinquenta e três mil e quatrocentos.

44 Estes foram os contados, que contaram Moisés e Arão e os príncipes de Israel, doze homens; cada um era pela casa de seus pais. 45 Assim foram todos os contados dos filhos de Israel, segundo a casa de seus pais, de vinte anos para cima, todos os que podiam sair à guerra em Israel; 46 todos os contados, pois, foram seiscentos e três mil e quinhentos e cinquenta.

47 Mas os levitas, segundo a tribo de seus pais, não foram contados entre eles, 48 porquanto o Senhor tinha falado a Moisés, dizendo: 49 Somente não contarás a tribo de Levi, nem tomarás a soma deles entre os filhos de Israel; 50 mas, tu, põe os levitas sobre o tabernáculo do Testemunho, e sobre todos os seus utensílios, e sobre tudo o que lhe pertence; eles levarão o tabernáculo e todos os seus utensílios; e eles o administrarão e assentarão o seu arraial ao redor do tabernáculo. 51 E, quando o tabernáculo partir, os levitas o desarmarão; e, quando o tabernáculo assentar no arraial, os levitas o armarão; e o estranho que se chegar morrerá. 52 E os filhos de Israel assentarão as suas tendas, cada um no seu esquadrão e cada um junto à sua bandeira, segundo os seus exércitos. 53 Mas os levitas assentarão as suas tendas ao redor do tabernáculo do Testemunho, para que não haja indignação sobre a congregação dos filhos de Israel; pelo que os levitas terão o cuidado da guarda do tabernáculo do Testemunho. 54 Assim fizeram os filhos de Israel; conforme tudo o que o Senhor ordenara a Moisés, assim o fizeram.

1 And the Lord spoke unto Moses in the wilderness of Sinai, in the tabernacle of the congregation, on the first day of the second month, in the second year after their going out of the land of Egypt, saying,

2 Take ye the sum of all the congregation of the children of Israel, after their families, by the descent from their fathers, by numbering the names, every male according to their polls;

3 From twenty years old and upward, all that are able to go forth to war in Israel: these shall ye number according to their armies, thou and Aaron.

4 And with you there shall be one man each of every tribe; a man who is the head of his family division.

5 And these are the names of the men that shall stand with you; of Reuben: Elizur the son of Shedeur.

6 Of Simeon: Shelumiel the son of Zurishaddai.

7 Of Judah: Nachshon the son of ‘Amminadab.

8 Of Issachar: Nethanel the son of Zuar.

9 Of Zebulun: Eliab the son of Chelon.

13 Of Asher: Pagiel the son of ‘Ochran.

14 Of Gad: Elyassaph the son of Deuel.

15 Of Naphtali: Achira the son of ‘Enan.

16 These were the selected of the congregation, the princes of the tribes of their fathers; the heads of the thousands of Israel were they.

17 And Moses and Aaron took these men who are expressed by name:

18 And all the congregation they assembled together on the first day of the second month, and they were enrolled in the lists of their pedigrees after their families, by the descent from their fathers, by numbering the names, from twenty years old and upward, according to their polls.

19 As the Lord had commanded Moses, so did he number them in the wilderness of Sinai.

20 And there were of the children of Reuben the first–born of Israel, by their generations, after their families, by the descent from their fathers, by numbering the names according to their polls, every male from twenty years old and upward, all that were able to go forth to war;

21 Those that were numbered of the tribe of Reuben, were forty and six thousand and five hundred.

22 Of the children of Simeon, by their generations, after their families, by the descent from their fathers, those that were numbered of them, by numbering the names according to their polls, every male from twenty years old and upward, all that were able to go forth to war;

23 Those that were numbered of the tribe of Simeon, were fifty and nine thousand and three hundred.

24 Of the children of Gad, by their generations, after their families, by the descent from their fathers, by numbering the names, from twenty years old and upward, all that were able to go forth to war;

25 Those that were numbered of the tribe of Gad, were forty and five thousand six hundred and fifty.

26 Of the children of Judah, by their generations, after their families, by the descent from their fathers, by numbering the names, from twenty years old and upward, all that were able to go forth to war;

27 Those that were numbered of the tribe of Judah, were seventy and four thousand and six hundred.

28 Of the children of Issachar, by their generations, after their families, by the descent from their fathers, by numbering the names, from twenty years old and upward, all that were able to go forth to war;

29 Those that were numbered of the tribe of Issachar, were fifty and four thousand and four hundred.

30 Of the children of Zebulun, by their generations, after their families, by the descent from their fathers, by numbering the names, from twenty years old and upward, all that were able to go forth to war;

31 Those that were numbered of the tribe of Zebulun, were fifty and seven thousand and four hundred.

32 Of the children of Joseph, namely, of the children of Ephraim, by their generations, after their families, by the descent from their fathers, by numbering the names, from twenty years old and upward, all that were able to go forth to war.

33 Those that were numbered of the tribe of Ephraim, were forty thousand and five hundred.

34 Of the children of Menasseh, by their generations, after their families, by the descent from their fathers, by numbering the names, from twenty years old and upward, all that were able to go forth to war;

35 Those that were numbered of the tribe of Menasseh, were thirty and two thousand and two hundred.

36 Of the children of Benjamin, by their generations, after their families, by the descent from their fathers, by numbering the names, from twenty years old and upward, all that were able to go forth to war;

37 Those that were numbered of the tribe of Benjamin, were thirty and five thousand and four hundred.

38 Of the children of Dan, by their generations, after their families, by the descent from their fathers, by numbering the names, from twenty years old and upward, all that were able to go forth to war;

39 Those that were numbered of the tribe of Dan, were sixty and two thousand and seven hundred.

40 Of the children of Asher, by their generations, after their families, by the descent from their fathers, by numbering the names, from twenty years old and upward, all that were able to go forth to war;

41 Those that were numbered of the tribe of Asher, were forty and one thousand and five hundred.

42 Of the children of Naphtali, by their generations, after their families, by the descent from their fathers, by numbering the names, from twenty years old and upward, all that were able to go forth to war;

43 Those that were numbered of the tribe of Naphtali, were fifty and three thousand and four hundred.

44 These are those that were numbered, whom Moses numbered with Aaron, and the princes of Israel, being twelve men; one man each for his family division were they.

45 Thus were all those that were numbered of the children of Israel, by the descent from their fathers, from twenty years old and upward, all that were able to go forth to war in Israel,––

46 Even all they that were numbered, were six hundred thousand and three thousand and five hundred and fifty.

47 But the Levites, after the tribe of their fathers, were not numbered among them.

48 For the Lord had spoken unto Moses, saying,

49 Only the tribe of Levi shalt thou not number, and their sum shalt thou not take, among the children of Israel;

50 But thou shalt appoint the Levites over the tabernacle of the testimony, and over all its vessels, and over all things that belong to it: they shall carry the tabernacle, and all its vessels; and they shall minister unto it; and round about the tabernacle shall they encamp.

51 And when the tabernacle is to be carried forward, the Levites shall take it down; and when the tabernacle is to be pitched, the Levites shall set it up: and the stranger that cometh nigh shall be put to death.

52 And the children of Israel shall pitch their tents, every man by his own camp, and every man by his own standard, according to their armies.

53 But the Levites shall encamp round shout the tabernacle of the testimony, that there be no wrath upon the congregation of the children of Israel: and the Levites shall keep the charge of the tabernacle of the testimony.

54 And the children of Israel did so: all, just as the Lord had commanded Moses, so did they.
