Numbers 3:18-26

18These were the names of Gershon’s sons by their clans: Libni and Shimei.

19Kohath’s sons by their clans were Amram, Izhar, Hebron, and Uzziel.

20Merari’s sons by their clans were Mahli and Mushi. These were the Levite clans by their ancestral families.

21The Libnite clan and the Shimeite clan came from Gershon; these were the Gershonite clans.

22Those registered, counting every male one month old or more, numbered 7,500.

23The Gershonite clans camped behind the tabernacle on the west side,

24and the leader of the Gershonite families was Eliasaph son of Lael.

25The Gershonites’ duties at the tent of meeting involved the tabernacle, the tent, its covering, the screen for the entrance to the tent of meeting,

26the hangings of the courtyard, the screen for the entrance to the courtyard that surrounds the tabernacle and the altar, and the tent ropes — all the work relating to these.
