Num 2
1
And the LORD spoke unto Moses and unto Aaron, saying:
2
'The children of Israel shall pitch by their fathers' houses; every man with his own
standard, according to the ensigns; a good way off shall they pitch round about the
tent of meeting.
3
Now those that pitch on the east side toward the sunrising shall be they of the standard
of the camp of Judah, according to their hosts; the prince of the children of Judah
being Nahshon the son of Amminadab,
4
and his host, and those that were numbered of them, threescore and fourteen thousand
and six hundred;
5
and those that pitch next unto him shall be the tribe of Issachar; the prince of the
children of Issachar being Nethanel the son of Zuar,
6
and his host, even those that were numbered thereof, fifty and four thousand and four
hundred;
7
and the tribe of Zebulun; the prince of the children of Zebulun being Eliab the son
of Helon,
8
and his host, and those that were numbered thereof, fifty and seven thousand and four
hundred;
9
all that were numbered of the camp of Judah being 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;
the prince of the children of Reuben being Elizur the son of Shedeur,
11
and his host, and those that were numbered thereof, forty and six thousand and five
hundred;
12
and those that pitch next unto him shall be the tribe of Simeon; the prince of the
children of Simeon being Shelumiel the son of Zurishaddai,
13
and his host, and those that were numbered of them, fifty and nine thousand and three
hundred;
14
and the tribe of Gad; the prince of the children of Gad being Eliasaph the son of
Reuel,
15
and his host, even those that were numbered of them, forty and five thousand and six
hundred and fifty;
16
all that were numbered of the camp of Reuben being 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, with the camp of the Levites, shall set forward 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;
the prince of the children of Ephraim being Elishama the son of Ammihud,
19
and his host, and those that were numbered of them, forty thousand and five hundred;
20
and next unto him shall be the tribe of Manasseh; the prince of the children of Manasseh
being Gamaliel the son of Pedahzur,
21
and his host, and those that were numbered of them, thirty and two thousand and two
hundred;
22
and the tribe of Benjamin; the prince of the children of Benjamin being Abidan the
son of Gideoni,
23
and his host, and those that were numbered of them, thirty and five thousand and four
hundred;
24
all that were numbered of the camp of Ephraim being 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;
the prince of the children of Dan being Ahiezer the son of Ammishaddai,
26
and his host, and those that were numbered of them, threescore and two thousand and
seven hundred;
27
and those that pitch next unto him shall be the tribe of Asher; the prince of the
children of Asher being Pagiel the son of Ochran,
28
and his host, and those that were numbered of them, forty and one thousand and five
hundred;
29
and the tribe of Naphtali; the prince of the children of Naphtali being Ahira the
son of Enan,
30
and his host, and those that were numbered of them, fifty and three thousand and four
hundred;
31
all that were numbered of the camp of Dan being 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 the LORD commanded
Moses.
34
Thus did the children of Israel: according to all that the LORD commanded Moses, so
they pitched by their standards, and so they set forward, each one according to its
families, and according to its fathers' houses.
