Then Yehowah spoke to Moses and Aaron, and said,
2
Each of the sons of Israel shall camp by his own standard, with the ensigns of their fathers' houses; they shall camp at a distance from the tent of meeting on every side.
3
And those who camp on the east towards the sunrise shall be of the standard of the camp of Judah, according to their armies, the prince of the sons of Judah being Nahshon the son of Arnminadab,
4
and his army and those who are numbered of them, being seventy-four thousand six hundred.

16
The total number in the camp of Reuben is one hundred and fifty-one thousand four hundred and fifty, according to their armies. And they shall set out second.
17
Then the tent of meeting shall go forward, with the camp of the Levites in the midst of the camps; as they have camped, so they shall set out, each one in his place, with their standards.
18
The standard of the camp of Ephraim, according to their armies, shall be on the west, the prince of the sons of Ephraim being Elishama the son of Ammihud,
19
and his army and those who are numbered of them, being forty thousand five hundred.

These are those who were numbered of the sons of Israel, by their fathers' houses; the total number in the camps according to their armies was six hundred and three thousand five hundred and fifty.
33
But the Levites were not numbered along with the sons of Israel, as Yehowah commanded Moses.
