14Then the LORDH3068 spokeH1696 toH413 MosesH4872 in the WildernessH4057 of SinaiH5514, sayingH559, 15“NumberH6485 the LevitesH1121H3878 by their familiesH1H1004 and clansH4940. You are to countH6485 everyH3605 maleH2145 a monthH2320 oldH1121 or moreH4605.”

23The GershoniteH1649 clansH4940 were to campH2583 on the westH3220, behindH310 the tabernacleH4908, 24and the leaderH5387 of the familiesH1004H1 of the GershonitesH1649 was EliasaphH460 sonH1121 of LaelH3815.
25The dutiesH4931 of the GershonitesH1121H1648 at the TentH168 of MeetingH4150 were the tabernacleH4908 and tentH168, its coveringH4372, the curtainH4539 for the entranceH6607 to the TentH168 of MeetingH4150, 26the curtainsH7050 of the courtyardH2691, the curtainH4539 for the entranceH6607 to the courtyardH2691 thatH834 surroundsH5921 the tabernacleH4908H5921 and altarH4196H5439, and the cordsH4340—allH3605 the serviceH5656 for these items.
27From Kohath cameH6955 the clansH4940 of the AmramitesH6020, the IzharitesH3325, the HebronitesH2276, and the UzzielitesH5817; theseH428H1992 were the clansH4940 of the KohathitesH6956. 28The numberH4557 of allH3605 the malesH2145 a monthH2320 oldH1121 or moreH4605 was 8,600H8083H505H8337H3967.1 They were responsible forH8104 the dutiesH4931 of the sanctuaryH6944.
