Numbers

Chapter 26

New King James Version

1And it came to pass, after the plague, that the LORD spoke to Moses and Eleazar the son of Aaron the priest, saying: 2"Take a census of all the congregation of the children of Israel from twenty years old and above, by their fathers' houses, all who are able to go to war in Israel." 3So Moses and Eleazar the priest spoke with them in the plains of Moab by the Jordan, [across from] Jericho, saying: 4"[Take a census of the people] from twenty years old and above, just as the LORD commanded Moses and the children of Israel who came out of the land of Egypt." 5Reuben [was] the firstborn of Israel. The children of Reuben [were: of] Hanoch, the family of the Hanochites; [of] Pallu, the family of the Palluites; 6[of] Hezron, the family of the Hezronites; [of] Carmi, the family of the Carmites. 7These [are] the families of the Reubenites: those who were numbered of them were forty-three thousand seven hundred and thirty. 8And the son of Pallu [was] Eliab. 9The sons of Eliab [were] Nemuel, Dathan, and Abiram. These [are] the Dathan and Abiram, representatives of the congregation, who contended against Moses and Aaron in the company of Korah, when they contended against the LORD; 10and the earth opened its mouth and swallowed them up together with Korah when that company died, when the fire devoured two hundred and fifty men; and they became a sign. 11Nevertheless the children of Korah did not die. 12The sons of Simeon according to their families [were: of] Nemuel, the family of the Nemuelites; [of] Jamin, the family of the Jaminites; [of] Jachin, the family of the Jachinites; 13[of] Zerah, the family of the Zarhites; [of] Shaul, the family of the Shaulites. 14These [are] the families of the Simeonites: twenty-two thousand two hundred. 15The sons of Gad according to their families [were: of] Zephon, the family of the Zephonites; [of] Haggi, the family of the Haggites; [of] Shuni, the family of the Shunites; 16[of] Ozni, the family of the Oznites; [of] Eri, the family of the Erites; 17[of] Arod, the family of the Arodites; [of] Areli, the family of the Arelites. 18These [are] the families of the sons of Gad according to those who were numbered of them: forty thousand five hundred. 19The sons of Judah [were] Er and Onan; and Er and Onan died in the land of Canaan. 20And the sons of Judah according to their families were: [of] Shelah, the family of the Shelanites; [of] Perez, the family of the Parzites; [of] Zerah, the family of the Zarhites. 21And the sons of Perez were: [of] Hezron, the family of the Hezronites; [of] Hamul, the family of the Hamulites. 22These [are] the families of Judah according to those who were numbered of them: seventy-six thousand five hundred. 23The sons of Issachar according to their families [were: of] Tola, the family of the Tolaites; of Puah, the family of the Punites; 24of Jashub, the family of the Jashubites; of Shimron, the family of the Shimronites. 25These [are] the families of Issachar according to those who were numbered of them: sixty-four thousand three hundred. 26The sons of Zebulun according to their families [were:] of Sered, the family of the Sardites; of Elon, the family of the Elonites; of Jahleel, the family of the Jahleelites. 27These [are] the families of the Zebulunites according to those who were numbered of them: sixty thousand five hundred. 28The sons of Joseph according to their families, by Manasseh and Ephraim, [were:] 29The sons of Manasseh: of Machir, the family of the Machirites; and Machir begot Gilead; of Gilead, the family of the Gileadites. 30These [are] the sons of Gilead: [of] Jeezer, the family of the Jeezerites; of Helek, the family of the Helekites; 31[of] Asriel, the family of the Asrielites; [of] Shechem, the family of the Shechemites; 32[of] Shemida, the family of the Shemidaites; [of] Hepher, the family of the Hepherites. 33Now Zelophehad the son of Hepher had no sons, but daughters; and the names of the daughters of Zelophehad [were] Mahlah, Noah, Hoglah, Milcah, and Tirzah. 34These [are] the families of Manasseh; and those who were numbered of them [were] fifty-two thousand seven hundred. 35These [are] the sons of Ephraim according to their families: of Shuthelah, the family of the Shuthalhites; of Becher, the family of the Bachrites; of Tahan, the family of the Tahanites. 36And these [are] the sons of Shuthelah: of Eran, the family of the Eranites. 37These [are] the families of the sons of Ephraim according to those who were numbered of them: thirty-two thousand five hundred. These [are] the sons of Joseph according to their families. 38The sons of Benjamin according to their families were: of Bela, the family of the Belaites; of Ashbel, the family of the Ashbelites; of Ahiram, the family of the Ahiramites; 39of Shupham, the family of the Shuphamites; of Hupham, the family of the Huphamites. 40And the sons of Bela were Ard and Naaman: [of Ard,] the family of the Ardites; of Naaman, the family of the Naamites. 41These [are] the sons of Benjamin according to their families; and those who were numbered of them [were] forty-five thousand six hundred. 42These [are] the sons of Dan according to their families: of Shuham, the family of the Shuhamites. These [are] the families of Dan according to their families. 43All the families of the Shuhamites, according to those who were numbered of them, [were] sixty-four thousand four hundred. 44The sons of Asher according to their families [were:] of Jimna, the family of the Jimnites; of Jesui, the family of the Jesuites; of Beriah, the family of the Beriites. 45Of the sons of Beriah: of Heber, the family of the Heberites; of Malchiel, the family of the Malchielites. 46And the name of the daughter of Asher [was] Serah. 47These [are] the families of the sons of Asher according to those who were numbered of them: fifty-three thousand four hundred. 48The sons of Naphtali according to their families [were:] of Jahzeel, the family of the Jahzeelites; of Guni, the family of the Gunites; 49of Jezer, the family of the Jezerites; of Shillem, the family of the Shillemites. 50These [are] the families of Naphtali according to their families; and those who were numbered of them [were] forty-five thousand four hundred. 51These [are] those who were numbered of the children of Israel: six hundred and one thousand seven hundred and thirty. 52Then the LORD spoke to Moses, saying: 53"To these the land shall be divided as an inheritance, according to the number of names. 54"To a large [tribe] you shall give a larger inheritance, and to a small [tribe] you shall give a smaller inheritance. Each shall be given its inheritance according to those who were numbered of them. 55"But the land shall be divided by lot; they shall inherit according to the names of the tribes of their fathers. 56"According to the lot their inheritance shall be divided between the larger and the smaller." 57And these [are] those who were numbered of the Levites according to their families: of Gershon, the family of the Gershonites; of Kohath, the family of the Kohathites; of Merari, the family of the Merarites. 58These [are] the families of the Levites: the family of the Libnites, the family of the Hebronites, the family of the Mahlites, the family of the Mushites, and the family of the Korathites. And Kohath begot Amram. 59The name of Amram's wife [was] Jochebed the daughter of Levi, who was born to Levi in Egypt; and to Amram she bore Aaron and Moses and their sister Miriam. 60To Aaron were born Nadab and Abihu, Eleazar and Ithamar. 61And Nadab and Abihu died when they offered profane fire before the LORD. 62Now those who were numbered of them were twenty-three thousand, every male from a month old and above; for they were not numbered among the other children of Israel, because there was no inheritance given to them among the children of Israel. 63These [are] those who were numbered by Moses and Eleazar the priest, who numbered the children of Israel in the plains of Moab by the Jordan, [across from] Jericho. 64But among these there was not a man of those who were numbered by Moses and Aaron the priest when they numbered the children of Israel in the Wilderness of Sinai. 65For the LORD had said of them, "They shall surely die in the wilderness." So there was not left a man of them, except Caleb the son of Jephunneh and Joshua the son of Nun.
