1 And Jehovah spake unto Moses and unto Aaron, saying, 2 The children of Israel shall encamp every man by his own standard, with the ensigns of their fathers’ houses: over against the tent of meeting shall they encamp round about. 3 And those that encamp on the east side toward the sunrising shall be they of the standard of the camp of Judah, according to their hosts: and the prince of the children of Judah shall be Nahshon the son of Amminadab. 4 And his host, and those that were numbered of them, were threescore and fourteen thousand and six hundred. 5 And those that encamp next unto him shall be the tribe of Issachar: and the prince of the children of Issachar shall be Nethanel the son of Zuar. 6 And his host, and those that were numbered thereof, were fifty and four thousand and four hundred. 7 And the tribe of Zebulun: and the prince of the children of Zebulun shall be Eliab the son of Helon. 8 And his host, and those that were numbered thereof, were fifty and seven thousand and four hundred. 9 All that were numbered of the camp of Judah were a hundred thousand and fourscore thousand and six thousand and four hundred, according to their hosts. They shall set forth first.

10 On the south side shall be the standard of the camp of Reuben according to their hosts: and the prince of the children of Reuben shall be Elizur the son of Shedeur. 11 And his host, and those that were numbered thereof, were forty and six thousand and five hundred. 12 And those that encamp next unto him shall be the tribe of Simeon: and the prince of the children of Simeon shall be Shelumiel the son of Zurishaddai. 13 And his host, and those that were numbered of them, were fifty and nine thousand and three hundred. 14 And the tribe of Gad: and the prince of the children of Gad shall be Eliasaph the son of Reuel. 15 And his host, and those that were numbered of them, were forty and five thousand and six hundred and fifty. 16 All that were numbered of the camp of Reuben were a hundred thousand and fifty and one thousand and four hundred and fifty, according to their hosts. And they shall set forth second.

17 Then the tent of meeting shall set forward, with the camp of the Levites in the midst of the camps: as they encamp, so shall they set forward, every man in his place, by their standards.

18 On the west side shall be the standard of the camp of Ephraim according to their hosts: and the prince of the children of Ephraim shall be Elishama the son of Ammihud. 19 And his host, and those that were numbered of them, were forty thousand and five hundred. 20 And next unto him shall be the tribe of Manasseh: and the prince of the children of Manasseh shall be Gamaliel the son of Pedahzur. 21 And his host, and those that were numbered of them, were thirty and two thousand and two hundred. 22 And the tribe of Benjamin: and the prince of the children of Benjamin shall be Abidan the son of Gideoni. 23 And his host, and those that were numbered of them, were thirty and five thousand and four hundred. 24 All that were numbered of the camp of Ephraim were a hundred thousand and eight thousand and a hundred, according to their hosts. And they shall set forth third.

25 On the north side shall be the standard of the camp of Dan according to their hosts: and the prince of the children of Dan shall be Ahiezer the son of Ammishaddai. 26 And his host, and those that were numbered of them, were threescore and two thousand and seven hundred. 27 And those that encamp next unto him shall be the tribe of Asher: and the prince of the children of Asher shall be Pagiel the son of Ochran. 28 And his hosts, and those that were numbered of them, were forty and one thousand and five hundred. 29 And the tribe of Naphtali: and the prince of the children of Naphtali shall be Ahira the son of Enan. 30 And his host, and those that were numbered of them, were fifty and three thousand and four hundred. 31 All that were numbered of the camp of Dan were a hundred thousand and fifty and seven thousand and six hundred. They shall set forth hindmost by their standards.

32 These are they that were numbered of the children of Israel by their fathers’ houses: all that were numbered of the camps according to their hosts were six hundred thousand and three thousand and five hundred and fifty. 33 But the Levites were not numbered among the children of Israel; as Jehovah commanded Moses. 34 Thus did the children of Israel; according to all that Jehovah commanded Moses, so they encamped by their standards, and so they set forward, every one by their families, according to their fathers’ houses.

1 O Senhor Deus disse a Moisés e a Arão o seguinte:

2 — Quando os israelitas armarem o acampamento, cada um ficará perto da bandeira do seu grupo e do estandarte do seu grupo de famílias. Eles acamparão em volta da Tenda Sagrada e de frente para ela.

3,4 — Do lado leste acamparão os exércitos que marcham debaixo da bandeira da tribo de Judá. O exército de Judá tem setenta e quatro mil e seiscentos homens, e o chefe é Nasom, filho de Aminadabe. 5,6 Ao lado deles acampará o exército da tribo de Issacar. Esse exército tem cinquenta e quatro mil e quatrocentos homens, e o chefe é Netanel, filho de Zuar. 7,8 Acampará com eles também o exército da tribo de Zebulom. Esse exército tem cinquenta e sete mil e quatrocentos homens, e o chefe é Eliabe, filho de Helom. 9 O grupo de Judá, num total de cento e oitenta e seis mil e quatrocentos homens, marchará primeiro.

10,11 — Do lado sul acamparão os exércitos que marcham debaixo da bandeira da tribo de Rúben. O exército de Rúben tem quarenta e seis mil e quinhentos homens, e o seu chefe é Elisur, filho de Sedeur. 12,13 Ao lado deles acampará o exército da tribo de Simeão. Esse exército tem cinquenta e nove mil e trezentos homens, e o chefe é Selumiel, filho de Zurisadai. 14,15 Acampará com eles também o exército da tribo de Gade. Esse exército tem quarenta e cinco mil seiscentos e cinquenta homens, e o chefe é Eliasafe, filho de Deuel. 16 O grupo de Rúben, num total de cento e cinquenta e um mil quatrocentos e cinquenta homens, marchará em segundo lugar.

17 — Entre os primeiros dois grupos e os dois últimos, marcharão os levitas, levando a Tenda. Os grupos marcharão na mesma ordem em que acamparem, cada um no seu lugar, seguindo a sua bandeira.

18,19 — Do lado oeste acamparão os exércitos que marcham debaixo da bandeira da tribo de Efraim. O exército de Efraim tem quarenta mil e quinhentos homens, e o chefe é Elisama, filho de Amiúde. 20,21 Ao lado deles acampará o exército da tribo de Manassés. Esse exército tem trinta e dois mil e duzentos homens, e o chefe é Gamaliel, filho de Pedasur. 22,23 Acampará com eles também o exército da tribo de Benjamim. Esse exército tem trinta e cinco mil e quatrocentos homens, e o chefe é Abidã, filho de Gideoni. 24 O grupo de Efraim, num total de cento e oito mil e cem homens, marchará em terceiro lugar.

25,26 — Do lado norte acamparão os exércitos que marcham debaixo da bandeira da tribo de Dã. O exército de Dã tem sessenta e dois mil e setecentos homens, e o chefe é Aiezer, filho de Amisadai. 27,28 Ao lado deles acampará o exército da tribo de Aser. Esse exército tem quarenta e um mil e quinhentos homens, e o chefe é Pagiel, filho de Ocrã. 29,30 Acampará com eles também o exército da tribo de Naftali. Esse exército tem cinquenta e três mil e quatrocentos homens, e o chefe é Aira, filho de Enã. 31 O grupo de Dã, num total de cento e cinquenta e sete mil e seiscentos homens, marchará por último.

32 O número total dos homens de Israel registrados nos exércitos, grupo por grupo, foi de seiscentos e três mil quinhentos e cinquenta. 33 Como o Senhor havia ordenado a Moisés, os levitas não foram contados com os outros israelitas.

34 Assim, o povo de Israel fez tudo como o Senhor havia ordenado a Moisés. Eles acamparam, cada grupo debaixo da sua própria bandeira, e cada israelita começou a marchar com o seu grupo de famílias.
