Numbers 2

¹And Jehovah speaketh unto Moses, and unto Aaron, saying, ²‘Each by his standard, with ensigns of the house of their fathers, do the sons of Israel encamp; over-against round about the tent of meeting they encamp.’

³And those encamping eastward towards the sun-rising, are of the standard of the camp of Judah, by their hosts; and the prince of the sons of Judah is Nahshon, son of Amminadab; ⁴and his host, and their numbered ones, are four and seventy thousand and six hundred. ⁵And those encamping by him are of the tribe of Issachar; and the prince of the sons of Issachar is Nethaneel son of Zuar; ⁶and his host, and its numbered ones, are four and fifty thousand and four hundred. ⁷The tribe of Zebulun; and the prince of the sons of Zebulun is Eliab son of Helon; ⁸and his host, and its numbered ones, are seven and fifty thousand and four hundred; ⁹all those numbered of the camp of Judah are a hundred thousand, and eighty thousand, and six thousand, and four hundred, by their hosts; they journey first. ¹⁰The standard of the camp of Reuben is southward, by their hosts; and the prince of the sons of Reuben is Elizur son of Shedeur; ¹¹and his host, and its numbered ones, are six and forty thousand and five hundred. ¹²And those encamping by him are of the tribe of Simeon; and the prince of the sons of Simeon is Shelumiel son of Zurishaddai; ¹³and his host, and their numbered ones, are nine and fifty thousand and three hundred. ¹⁴And the tribe of Gad; and the prince of the sons of Gad is Eliasaph son of Reuel; ¹⁵and his host, and their numbered ones, are five and forty thousand and six hundred and fifty. ¹⁶All those numbered of the camp of Reuben are a hundred thousand, and one and fifty thousand, and four hundred and fifty, by their hosts; and they journey second. ¹⁷And the tent of meeting—the camp of the Levites—hath journeyed in the midst of the camps; as they encamp so they journey, each at his station by their standards. ¹⁸The standard of the camp of Ephraim, by their hosts, is westward; and the prince of the sons of Ephraim is Elishama son of Ammihud; ¹⁹and his host, and their numbered ones, are forty thousand and five hundred. ²⁰And by him is the tribe of Manasseh; and the prince of the sons of Manasseh is Gamaliel son of Pedahzur; ²¹and his host, and their numbered ones, are two and thirty thousand, and two hundred. ²²And the tribe of Benjamin; and the prince of the sons of Benjamin is Abidan son of Gideoni; ²³and his host, and their numbered ones, are five and thirty thousand and four hundred. ²⁴All those numbered of the camp of Ephraim are a hundred thousand, and eight thousand, and a hundred, by their hosts; and they journey third. ²⁵The standard of the camp of Dan is northward, by their hosts; and the prince of the sons of Dan is Ahiezer son of Ammishaddai; ²⁶and his host, and their numbered ones, are two and sixty thousand and seven hundred. ²⁷And those encamping by him are of the tribe of Asher; and the prince of the sons of Asher is Pagiel son of Ocran; ²⁸and his host, and their numbered ones, are one and forty thousand and five hundred. ²⁹And the tribe of Naphtali; and the prince of the sons of Naphtali is Ahira son of Enan; ³⁰and his host, and their numbered ones, are three and fifty thousand and four hundred. ³¹All those numbered of the camp of Dan are a hundred thousand, and seven and fifty thousand, and six hundred; at the rear they journey, by their standards. ³²These are those numbered of the sons of Israel by the house of their fathers; all those numbered of the camps by their hosts are six hundred thousand, and three thousand, and five hundred and fifty. ³³And the Levites have not numbered themselves in the midst of the sons of Israel, as Jehovah hath commanded Moses. ³⁴And the sons of Israel do according to all that Jehovah hath commanded Moses; so they have encamped by their standards, and so they have journeyed; each by his families, by the house of his fathers.
