1 And the Lord said to Moses in the waste land of Sinai, in the Tent of meeting, on the first day of the second month, in the second year after they came out of the land of Egypt,

2 Take the full number of the children of Israel, by their families, and by their fathers' houses, every male by name;

3 All those of twenty years old and over, who are able to go to war in Israel, are to be numbered by you and Aaron.

4 And to give you help, take one man from every tribe, the head of his father's house.

5 These are the names of those who are to be your helpers: from Reuben, Elizur, the son of Shedeur;

6 From Simeon, Shelumiel, the son of Zurishaddai;

7 From Judah, Nahshon, the son of Amminadab;

8 From Issachar, Nethanel, the son of Zuar;

9 From Zebulun, Eliab, the son of Helon;

10 Of the children of Joseph: from Ephraim, Elishama, the son of Ammihud; from Manasseh, Gamaliel, the son of Pedahzur,

11 From Benjamin, Abidan, the son of Gideoni;

12 From Dan, Ahiezer, the son of Ammi-shaddai;

13 From Asher, Pagiel, the son of Ochran;

14 From Gad, Eliasaph, the son of Reuel;

15 From Naphtali, Ahira, the son of Enan.

16 These are the men named out of all the people, chiefs of their fathers' houses, heads of the tribes of Israel.

17 And Moses and Aaron took these men, marked out by name;

18 And they got together all the people on the first day of the second month; and everyone made clear his family and his father's house, by the number of the names, from twenty years old and over.

19 As the Lord had given orders to Moses, so they were numbered by him in the waste place of Sinai.

20 The generations of the sons of Reuben, the oldest son of Israel, were numbered by their families and their fathers' houses, every male of twenty years old and over, who was able to go to war;

21 Forty-six thousand, five hundred of the tribe of Reuben were numbered.

22 The generations of the sons of Simeon were numbered by their families and their fathers' houses, every male of twenty years old and over, who was able to go to war;

23 Fifty-nine thousand, three hundred of the tribe of Simeon were numbered.

24 The generations of the sons of Gad were numbered by their families and their fathers' houses, every male of twenty years old and over who was able to go to war;

25 Forty-five thousand, six hundred and fifty of the tribe of Gad were numbered.

26 The generations of the sons of Judah were numbered by their families and their fathers' houses, every male of twenty years old and over who was able to go to war;

27 Seventy-four thousand, six hundred of the tribe of Judah were numbered.

28 The generations of the sons of Issachar were numbered by their families and their fathers' houses, every male of twenty years old and over who was able to go to war;

29 Fifty-four thousand, four hundred of the tribe of Issachar were numbered.

30 The generations of the sons of Zebulun were numbered by their families and their fathers' houses, every male of twenty years old and over who was able to go to war;

31 Fifty-seven thousand, four hundred of the tribe of Zebulun were numbered.

32 The generations of the sons of Joseph were numbered by their families and their fathers' houses, every male of twenty years old and over who was able to go to war;

33 Forty thousand, five hundred of the tribe of Ephraim were numbered.

34 The generations of the sons of Manasseh were numbered by their families and their fathers' houses, every male of twenty years old and over who was able to go to war;

35 Thirty-two thousand, two hundred of the tribe of Manasseh were numbered.

36 The generations of the sons of Benjamin were numbered by their families and their fathers' houses, every male of twenty years old and over who was able to go to war;

37 Thirty-five thousand, four hundred of the tribe of Benjamin were numbered.

38 The generations of the sons of Dan were numbered by their families and their fathers' houses, every male of twenty years and over who was able to go to war;

39 Sixty-two thousand, seven hundred of the tribe of Dan were numbered.

40 The generations of the sons of Asher were numbered by their families and their fathers' houses, every male of twenty years old and over who was able to go to war;

41 Forty-one thousand, five hundred of the tribe of Asher were numbered.

42 The generations of the sons of Naphtali were numbered by their families and their fathers' houses, every male of twenty years old and over who was able to go to war;

43 Fifty-three thousand, four hundred of the tribe of Naphtali were numbered.

44 These are they who were numbered by Moses and Aaron and by the twelve chiefs of Israel, one from every tribe.

45 So all those who were numbered of the children of Israel, by their families, all those of twenty years old and over who were able to go to war,

46 Were six hundred and three thousand, five hundred and fifty.

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

48 For the Lord said to Moses,

49 Only the tribe of Levi is not to be numbered among the children of Israel,

50 But to them you are to give the care of the Tent of meeting with its vessels and everything in it: they are to take up the Tent, and be responsible for everything to do with it, and put up their tents round it.

51 And when the Tent of meeting goes forward, the Levites are to take it down; and when it is to be put up, they are to do it: any strange person who comes near it is to be put to death.

52 The children of Israel are to put up their tents, every man in his tent-circle round his flag.

53 But the tents of the Levites are to be round the Tent of meeting, so that wrath may not come on the children of Israel: the Tent of meeting is to be in the care of the Levites.

54 So the children of Israel did as the Lord had given orders to Moses.

1 以色列人出埃及地以后, 第二年二月一日, 耶和华在西奈的旷野, 在会幕里对摩西说:

2 "你们要把以色列全体会众, 按着他们的宗族、父家, 根据人名数目, 统计人口; 所有男丁, 都要按着人口登记。

3 在以色列中, 凡是二十岁以上, 能出去打仗的, 你和亚伦要按着他们的队伍数点他们。

4 每一个支派要有一人帮助你们; 他们每一个都是他父家的首领。

5 以下就是帮助你们的人的名字: 属流本支派的, 有示丢珥的儿子以利蓿;

6 属西缅支派的, 有苏利沙代的儿子示路蔑;

7 属犹大支派的, 有亚米拿达的儿子拿顺;

8 属以萨迦支派的, 有苏押的儿子拿坦业;

9 属西布伦支派的, 有希伦的儿子以利押;

10 约瑟的子孙中, 属以法莲支派的, 有亚米忽的儿子以利沙玛; 属玛拿西支派的, 有比大蓿的儿子迦玛列;

11 属便雅悯支派的, 有基多尼的儿子亚比但。

12 属但支派的, 有亚米沙代的儿子亚希以谢;

13 属亚设支派的, 有俄兰的儿子帕结;

14 属迦得支派的, 有丢珥的儿子以利雅萨;

15 属拿弗他利支派的, 有以南的儿子亚希拉。

16 这些人是从会众中选出来, 都是他们宗族支派的领袖; 他们是以色列的族长。"

17 于是, 摩西和亚伦带着这些提名指定的人,

18 在二月一日召集了全体会众; 他们就照着他们的宗族, 按照他们的父家, 根据人名数目, 二十岁以上的, 都按着人口一一登记了。

19 耶和华怎样吩咐摩西, 摩西就怎样在西奈的旷野数点了他们。

20 以色列的长子, 流本子孙的后代, 照着宗族、父家, 根据人名数目, 按着人口, 二十岁以上, 能出去打仗的男丁, 都登记了;

21 流本支派被数点的, 共有四万六千五百人。

22 西缅子孙的后代, 照着宗族、父家, 根据人名数目, 按着人口, 二十岁以上, 能出去打仗的男丁, 都登记了;

23 西缅支派被数点的, 共有五万九千三百人。

24 迦得子孙的后代, 照着他们的宗族、父家, 根据人名数目, 二十岁以上, 凡是能出去打仗的, 都登记了;

25 迦得支派被数点的, 共有四万五千六百五十人。

29 以萨迦支派被数点的, 共有五万四千四百人。

30 西布伦子孙的后代, 照着他们的宗族、父家, 根据人名数目, 二十岁以上, 凡是能出去打仗的, 都登记了;

31 西布伦支派被数点的, 共有五万七千四百人。

32 约瑟的儿子, 以法莲子孙的后代, 照着他们的宗族、父家, 根据人名数目, 二十岁以上, 凡是能出去打仗的, 都登记了;

33 以法莲支派被数点的, 共有四万零五百人。

34 玛拿西子孙的后代, 照着他们的宗族、父家, 根据人名数目, 二十岁以上, 凡是能出去打仗的, 都登记了;

35 玛拿西支派被数点的, 共有三万二千二百人。

36 便雅悯子孙的后代, 照着他们的宗族、父家, 根据人名数目, 二十岁以上, 凡是能出去打仗的, 都登记了;

37 便雅悯支派被数点的, 共有三万五千四百人。

43 拿弗他利支派被数点的, 共有五万三千四百人。

44 以上就是被数点的人数, 是摩西和亚伦, 以及以色列的首领十二人(每父家一人)所数点的。

45 这样, 在以色列中, 按着父家, 二十岁以上, 凡是能出去打仗的以色列人, 都登记了;

46 被数点的, 共有六十万零三千五百五十人。

47 只有利未人没有按着他们家族的支派, 数点在其中。

48 因为耶和华曾对摩西说:

49 "只有利未支派, 你不可数点, 也不可把他们的总数列入以色列人中。

50 只要派利未人管理法柜的帐幕, 和其中的一切器具, 以及一切属于帐幕的事物; 他们要抬帐幕和其中的一切器具; 他们要办理帐幕的事, 在帐幕四周安营。

51 帐幕要起行的时候, 利未人要把它拆卸下来; 帐幕要支搭的时候, 利未人要把它竖立起来; 如果有外人走近, 必须处死。

52 以色列人安营, 要依照他们的队伍, 各归本营, 各归本旗。

53 但利未人要在法柜帐幕的四周安营, 免得 神的忿怒临到以色列的会众; 利未人要负看守法柜的帐幕的责任。"

54 以色列人就这样行了, 耶和华怎样吩咐摩西, 他们就怎样行。
