Numbers 26:57–64

⁵⁷These were the Levites^h who were counted by their clans:

through Gershon, the Gershonite clan;

through Kohath, the Kohathite clan;

through Merari, the Merarite clan.

⁵⁸These also were Levite clans:

the Libnite clan,

the Hebronite clan,

the Mahlite clan,

the Mushite clan,

the Korahite clan.

(Kohath was the forefather of Amram;^{i 59}the name of Amram’s wife was Jochebed,^j a descendant of Levi, who was born to the Levites^e in Egypt. To Amram she bore Aaron, Moses^k and their sister^l Miriam.^{m 60}Aaron was the father of Nadab and Abihu, Eleazar and Ithamar.^{n 61}But Nadab and Abihu^o died when they made an offering before the Lord with unauthorized fire.)^p

⁶²All the male Levites a month old or more numbered 23,000.^q They were not counted^r along with the other Israelites because they received no inheritance^s among them.^t

⁶³These are the ones counted^u by Moses and Eleazar the priest when they counted the Israelites on the plains of Moab^v by the Jordan across from Jericho.^{w 64}Not one of them was among those counted^x by Moses and Aaron^y the priest when they counted the Israelites in the Desert of Sinai.
