  • Num 1:1-9 : 1 The LORD spoke to Moses in the wilderness 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, saying: 2 Take a census of the entire community of the Israelites, by their clans and their ancestral houses, counting the names of all the males, head by head. 3 You must count all those who are twenty years old or older, who are able to serve in the army of Israel, division by division—you and Aaron together. 4 A man from each tribe, the head of his ancestral house, will assist you. 5 These are the names of the men who will assist you: from the tribe of Reuben, Elizur son of Shedeur; 6 from the tribe of Simeon, Shelumiel son of Zurishaddai; 7 from the tribe of Judah, Nahshon son of Amminadab; 8 from the tribe of Issachar, Nethanel son of Zuar; 9 from the tribe of Zebulun, Eliab son of Helon; 10 from the descendants of Joseph: from the tribe of Ephraim, Elishama son of Ammihud; from the tribe of Manasseh, Gamaliel son of Pedahzur; 11 from the tribe of Benjamin, Abidan son of Gideoni; 12 from the tribe of Dan, Ahiezer son of Ammishaddai; 13 from the tribe of Asher, Pagiel son of Ocran; 14 from the tribe of Gad, Eliasaph son of Deuel; 15 from the tribe of Naphtali, Ahira son of Enan. 16 These were the appointed leaders of the congregation, the chiefs of their ancestral tribes; they were the heads of the clans of Israel. 17 Moses and Aaron took these men who had been designated by name, 18 and they assembled the entire community on the first day of the second month. They recorded their lineage by their clans and ancestral houses, counting the names of those twenty years old or older, individually, 19 just as the LORD had commanded Moses. So they counted them in the wilderness of Sinai. 20 The descendants of Reuben, the firstborn of Israel, were recorded by their generations, families, and ancestral houses, by name, individually, all the males twenty years old or older, all who could serve in the army. 21 The number from the tribe of Reuben was 46,500. 22 The descendants of Simeon were recorded by their generations, by their families, and by their ancestral houses, all the males twenty years old or older, individually counted, all able to serve in the army. 23 The number from the tribe of Simeon was 59,300. 24 The descendants of Gad were recorded by their generations, by their families, and by their ancestral houses, all the males twenty years old or older, individually counted, all able to serve in the army. 25 The number from the tribe of Gad was 45,650. 26 The descendants of Judah were recorded by their generations, by their families, and by their ancestral houses, all the males twenty years old or older, individually counted, all able to serve in the army. 27 The number from the tribe of Judah was 74,600. 28 The descendants of Issachar were recorded by their generations, by their families, and by their ancestral houses, all the males twenty years old or older, individually counted, all able to serve in the army. 29 The number from the tribe of Issachar was 54,400. 30 The descendants of Zebulun were recorded by their generations, by their families, and by their ancestral houses, all the males twenty years old or older, individually counted, all able to serve in the army. 31 The number from the tribe of Zebulun was 57,400. 32 The descendants of Joseph, specifically the tribe of Ephraim, were recorded by their generations, by their families, and by their ancestral houses, all the males twenty years old or older, individually counted, all able to serve in the army. 33 The number from the tribe of Ephraim was 40,500. 34 The descendants of Manasseh were recorded by their generations, by their families, and by their ancestral houses, counting the names of all the males twenty years old or older, all able to serve in the army. 35 The number from the tribe of Manasseh was 32,200. 36 The descendants of Benjamin were recorded by their generations, by their families, and by their ancestral houses, counting the names of all the males twenty years old or older, all able to serve in the army. 37 The number from the tribe of Benjamin was 35,400. 38 The descendants of Dan were recorded by their generations, by their families, and by their ancestral houses, counting the names of all the males twenty years old or older, all able to serve in the army. 39 The number from the tribe of Dan was 62,700. 40 The descendants of Asher were recorded by their generations, by their families, and by their ancestral houses, counting the names of all the males twenty years old or older, all able to serve in the army. 41 The number from the tribe of Asher was 41,500. 42 The descendants of Naphtali were recorded by their generations, by their families, and by their ancestral houses, counting the names of all the males twenty years old or older, all able to serve in the army. 43 The number from the tribe of Naphtali was 53,400. 44 These were the ones who were numbered, whom Moses and Aaron counted, along with the leaders of Israel, twelve men, each the head of his ancestral house. 45 So all the Israelites who were twenty years old or older and able to serve in the army were counted according to their ancestral houses. 46 The total number of those counted was 603,550. 47 However, the Levites, by their ancestral tribe, were not included in the census among them. 48 The LORD spoke to Moses, saying: 49 Do not include the tribe of Levi or take a census of them among the Israelites. 50 Instead, appoint the Levites to be in charge of the tabernacle of the covenant, all its furnishings, and everything that belongs to it. They are to carry the tabernacle and all its furnishings, serve it, and camp around it. 51 Whenever the tabernacle is to move, the Levites must take it down, and whenever it is to be set up, the Levites must set it up. Any outsider who comes near it must be put to death. 52 The Israelites are to camp by their divisions, each man by his own banner, near his own family’s camp. 53 But the Levites are to camp around the tabernacle of the covenant to protect the Israelites from wrath. The Levites are to carry out the responsibilities of the tabernacle of the covenant. 54 Thus the Israelites did everything the LORD had commanded Moses, just as the LORD instructed them.
  • Num 10:1-9 : 1 The LORD spoke to Moses, saying: 2 Make two silver trumpets for yourself; make them of hammered work. They shall be used for calling the assembly and for directing the movement of the camps. 3 When both are blown, the whole assembly shall gather to you at the entrance of the Tent of Meeting. 4 If only one is blown, then the leaders, the heads of Israel's clans, shall gather to you. 5 When you sound a trumpet blast, the camps on the east side shall set out. 6 When you sound a second trumpet blast, the camps on the south side shall set out; a blast shall be sounded for their departure. 7 When calling the assembly together, you shall blow the trumpets, but do not sound an alarm. 8 The sons of Aaron, the priests, shall blow the trumpets. This shall be a lasting statute for you throughout your generations. 9 When you go into battle in your land against an enemy who oppresses you, you shall sound an alarm with the trumpets, so that you might be remembered before the LORD your God and be saved from your enemies. 10 Also, on the day of your rejoicing, at your appointed festivals, and at the beginning of your months, you shall blow the trumpets over your burnt offerings and your peace offerings; they will serve as a reminder for you before your God. I am the LORD your God. 11 In the second year, on the twentieth day of the second month, the cloud was lifted from over the Tabernacle of the Testimony. 12 Then the Israelites set out on their journeys from the Wilderness of Sinai, and the cloud settled in the Wilderness of Paran. 13 They set out for the first time according to the command of the LORD by Moses. 14 The banner of the camp of the sons of Judah set out first, according to their divisions, with Nahshon son of Amminadab leading them. 15 Over the division of the tribe of the sons of Issachar was Nethanel son of Zuar. 16 Over the division of the tribe of the sons of Zebulun was Eliab son of Helon. 17 Then the Tabernacle was taken down, and the sons of Gershon and the sons of Merari, who carried the Tabernacle, set out. 18 The banner of the camp of Reuben set out, according to their divisions, with Elizur son of Shedeur in command. 19 Over the division of the tribe of the sons of Simeon was Shelumiel son of Zurishaddai. 20 Over the division of the tribe of the sons of Gad was Eliasaph son of Deuel. 21 Then the Kohathites, who carried the holy things, set out; the Tabernacle was to be set up before their arrival. 22 The banner of the camp of Ephraim set out, according to their divisions, with Elishama son of Ammihud in command. 23 Over the division of the tribe of the sons of Manasseh was Gamaliel son of Pedahzur. 24 Over the division of the tribe of the sons of Benjamin was Abidan son of Gideoni. 25 The banner of the camp of Dan, serving as the rear guard for all the camps, set out, according to their divisions, with Ahiezer son of Ammishaddai in command. 26 Over the division of the tribe of the sons of Asher was Pagiel son of Ocran. 27 Over the division of the tribe of the sons of Naphtali was Ahira son of Enan. 28 This was the order of the journeys of the Israelites according to their divisions as they set out. 29 Moses said to Hobab son of Reuel the Midianite, Moses' father-in-law: "We are setting out for the place about which the LORD said, 'I will give it to you.' Come with us, and we will treat you well, for the LORD has promised good things for Israel." 30 But he replied to him, "I will not go; I am going back to my own land and to my relatives." 31 Moses said, "Please do not leave us, because you know where we should camp in the wilderness, and you will be our eyes. 32 If you come with us, we will share with you whatever good things the LORD gives to us." 33 So they set out from the mountain of the LORD and traveled for three days. During those three days, the Ark of the Covenant of the LORD went ahead of them to search out a resting place for them. 34 By day, the cloud of the LORD was over them as they set out from the camp. 35 Whenever the Ark set out, Moses would say, "Arise, LORD! Let your enemies be scattered, and let those who hate you flee before you." 36 And whenever it came to rest, he would say, "Return, LORD, to the countless thousands of Israel."

  • Num 34:1-9 : 1 The LORD spoke to Moses, saying: 2 Command the Israelites and tell them: When you enter the land of Canaan, this is the land that will be allotted to you as an inheritance—the land of Canaan with its boundaries: 3 Your southern boundary will begin at the Wilderness of Zin along the border of Edom, and from the eastern end of the Salt Sea. 4 Then the boundary will turn south to the ascent of Akrabbim, continue to Zin, and extend southward to Kadesh-barnea. It will then go out to Hazar-addar and proceed to Azmon. 5 From Azmon, the boundary will turn to the Wadi of Egypt and end at the Mediterranean Sea. 6 Your western boundary will be the coastline of the Mediterranean Sea; this will be your boundary to the west. 7 Your northern boundary will run from the Mediterranean Sea to Mount Hor. 8 From Mount Hor, you will mark out the boundary to the entrance of Hamath, and the boundary will end at Zedad. 9 The boundary will then go out to Ziphron and end at Hazar-enan. This will be your northern boundary. 10 For your eastern boundary, you are to draw a line from Hazar-enan to Shepham. 11 The boundary will descend from Shepham to Riblah on the east side of Ain and continue downward along the slopes eastward to the Sea of Galilee. 12 The boundary will then follow down the Jordan River and end at the Salt Sea. This will define the land with its borders on all sides. 13 Moses commanded the Israelites, saying: This is the land you are to inherit by lot, which the LORD has commanded to give to the nine and a half tribes. 14 For the tribe of the Reubenites by their ancestral clans, the tribe of the Gadites by their ancestral clans, and half the tribe of Manasseh have taken their inheritance. 15 These two and a half tribes have received their inheritance beyond the Jordan, east of Jericho, toward the sunrise. 16 The LORD spoke to Moses, saying: 17 These are the names of the men who shall divide the land for you as an inheritance: Eleazar the priest and Joshua son of Nun. 18 You shall also appoint one leader from each tribe to divide the land as an inheritance. 19 These are the names of the leaders: From the tribe of Judah, Caleb son of Jephunneh. 20 From the tribe of Simeon, Shemuel son of Ammihud. 21 From the tribe of Benjamin, Elidad son of Chislon. 22 From the tribe of Dan, the leader Bukki son of Jogli. 23 From the sons of Joseph: from the tribe of Manasseh, the leader Hanniel son of Ephod. 24 From the tribe of Ephraim, the leader Kemuel son of Shiphtan. 25 From the tribe of Zebulun, the leader Elizaphan son of Parnach. 26 From the tribe of Issachar, the leader Paltiel son of Azzan. 27 From the tribe of Asher, the leader Ahihud son of Shelomi. 28 From the tribe of Naphtali, the leader Pedahel son of Ammihud. 29 These are the men whom the LORD commanded to divide the inheritance among the Israelites in the land of Canaan.
