¹The Lord told Moses and Aaron,

²“The Israelites are to set up their camp around the Tent of Meeting but some distance from it. Every member of each tribe will camp under their own flag and family banner.

³The tribal division of Judah is to camp under their flag on the east side. Their leader is Nahshon, son of Amminadab,

⁴and he has 74,600 men.

⁵The tribe of Issachar will camp next to them. Their leader is Nethanel, son of Zuar,

⁶and he has 54,400 men.

⁷Next is the tribe of Zebulun. Their leader is Eliab, son of Helon,

⁸and he has 57,400 men.

⁹So the total number of men in the area of the camp of Judah is 186,400. When it's time to march out, they are the ones who will lead.

¹⁰The tribal division of Reuben is to camp under their flag on the south side. Their leader is Elizur, son of Shedeur,

¹¹and he has 46,500 men.

¹²The tribe of Simeon will camp next to them. Their leader is Shelumiel, son of Zurishaddai,

¹³and he has 59,300 men.

¹⁴Next is the tribe of Gad. Their leader is Eliasaph, son of Deuel,

¹⁵and he has 45,650 men.

¹⁶So the total number of men in the area of the camp of Reuben is 151,450. They shall march out in second place.

¹⁷The Tent of Meeting which is stands at the center of the camp is to accompany the Levites. They are to march out in the same order as they set up camp, each in their rightful place under their flag.

¹⁸The tribal division of Ephraim is to camp under their flag on the west side. Their leader is Elishama, son of Ammihud,

¹⁹and he has 40,500 men.

²⁰The tribe of Manasseh will camp next to them. Their leader is Gamaliel, son of Pedahzur,

²¹and he has 32,200 men.

²²Next is the tribe of Benjamin. Their leader is Abidan, son of Gideoni,

²³and he has 35,400 men.

²⁴So the total number of men in the area of the camp of Ephraim is 108,100. They shall march out in third place

²⁵The tribal division of Dan is to camp under their flag on the north side. Their leader is Ahiezer, son of Ammishaddai,

²⁶and he has 62,700 men.

²⁷The tribe of Asher will camp next to them. Their leader is Pagiel, son of Ocran,

²⁸and he has 41,500 men.

²⁹Next is the tribe of Naphtali. Their leader is Ahira son of Enan,

³⁰and he has 53,400 men.

³¹So the total number of men in the area of the camp of Dan is 157,600;. They shall march out in last, with their flags.”

³²This is sums up the registration of the Israelites, carried out by family. The final total of those counted in the camps by their tribal division was 603,550.

³³However, the Levites were not counted among the other Israelites, following the Lord's instructions to Moses.

³⁴The Israelites did everything the Lord had ordered Moses. They set up their camps under their flags in their assigned positions, and marched out in the same order, each with their own tribe and family.
