The Number of Every Tribe

17 So Moses and Aaron took these men who had been designated by name, 18 and on the first day of the second month they assembled the whole congregation and recorded their ancestry by clans and families, counting one by one the names of those twenty years of age or older, 19 just as the LORD had commanded Moses.

So [Moses] numbered them in the Wilderness of Sinai:

• 20 From the sons of Reuben, the firstborn of Israel, according to the records of their clans and families, counting one by one the names of every male twenty years of age or older who could serve in the army,
  21 those registered to the tribe of Reuben numbered 46,500.
• 22 From the sons of Simeon, according to the records of their clans and families, counting one by one the names of every male twenty years of age or older who could serve in the army,
  23 those registered to the tribe of Simeon numbered 59,300.
• 24 From the sons of Gad, according to the records of their clans and families, counting the names of all those twenty years of age or older who could serve in the army,
  25 those registered to the tribe of Gad numbered 45,650.
• 26 From the sons of Judah, according to the records of their clans and families, counting the names of all those twenty years of age or older who could serve in the army,
  27 those registered to the tribe of Judah numbered 74,600.
• 28 From the sons of Issachar, according to the records of their clans and families, counting the names of all those twenty years of age or older who could serve in the army,
  29 those registered to the tribe of Issachar numbered 54,400.
• 30 From the sons of Zebulun, according to the records of their clans and families, counting the names of all those twenty years of age or older who could serve in the army,
  31 those registered to the tribe of Zebulun numbered 57,400.
• 32 From the sons of Joseph:
  • From the sons of Ephraim, according to the records of their clans and families, counting the names of all those twenty years of age or older who could serve in the army,
    33 those registered to the tribe of Ephraim numbered 40,500.
  • 34 And from the sons of Manasseh, according to the records of their clans and families, counting the names of all those twenty years of age or older who could serve in the army,
    35 those registered to the tribe of Manasseh numbered 32,200.
• 36 From the sons of Benjamin, according to the records of their clans and families, counting the names of all those twenty years of age or older who could serve in the army,
  37 those registered to the tribe of Benjamin numbered 35,400.
• 38 From the sons of Dan, according to the records of their clans and families, counting the names of all those twenty years of age or older who could serve in the army,
  39 those registered to the tribe of Dan numbered 62,700.
• 40 From the sons of Asher, according to the records of their clans and families, counting the names of all those twenty years of age or older who could serve in the army,
  41 those registered to the tribe of Asher numbered 41,500.
• 42 From the sons of Naphtali, according to the records of their clans and families, counting the names of all those twenty years of age or older who could serve in the army,
  43 those registered to the tribe of Naphtali numbered 53,400.

44 These were the men numbered by Moses and Aaron, with the assistance of the twelve leaders of Israel, each one representing his family. 45 So all the Israelites twenty years of age or older who could serve in Israel’s army were counted according to their families. 46 And all those counted totaled 603,550.
