Numbers 26:57-64
57Now theseH428 were the LevitesH3881 numberedH6485 by their clansH4940:
The GershoniteH1649 clanH4940 from GershonH1648, the KohathiteH6956 clanH4940 from KohathH6955, and the MerariteH4848 clanH4940 from MerariH4847.
58TheseH428 were the familiesH4940 of the LevitesH3878:
The LibniteH3846 clanH4940, the HebroniteH2276 clanH4940, the MahliteH4250 clanH4940, the MushiteH4188 clanH4940, and the KorahiteH7145 clanH4940.
Now KohathH6955 was the father ofH3205 AmramH6019, 59and Amram’sH6019 wifeH802 was namedH8034 JochebedH3115. She was also a daughterH1323 of LeviH3878, bornH3205 to LeviH3878 in EgyptH4714. To AmramH6019 she boreH3205 AaronH175, MosesH4872, and their sisterH269 MiriamH4813. 60NadabH5070, AbihuH30, EleazarH499, and IthamarH385 were bornH3205 to AaronH175, 61but NadabH5070 and AbihuH30 diedH4191 when they offeredH7126 unauthorizedH21141 fireH784 beforeH6440 the LORDH3068.
62The registrationH6485 of the Levites totaledH1961 23,000H7969H6242H505, everyH3605 maleH2145 a monthH2320 oldH1121 or moreH4605; they were notH3808 numberedH6485 amongH8432 the other IsraelitesH1121H3478, becauseH3588 noH3808 inheritanceH5159 was givenH5414 to them amongH8432 the IsraelitesH1121H3478.
63TheseH428 were the ones numberedH6485 by MosesH4872 and EleazarH499 the priestH3548 whenH834 they countedH6485 the IsraelitesH1121H3478 on the plainsH6160 of MoabH4124 byH5921 the JordanH3383, across from JerichoH3405.
64Among all these, howeverH428, there wasH1961 notH3808 oneH376 who had been numberedH6485 by MosesH4872 and AaronH175 the priestH3548 whenH834 they countedH6485 the IsraelitesH1121H3478 in the WildernessH4057 of SinaiH5514.
