Numbers 3:18-26

18These are the names of the sons of Gershon by their families: Libni and Shimei.

19The sons of Kohath by their families were: Amram, Izhar, Hebron, and Uzziel.

20The sons of Merari by their families were Mahli and Mushi. These are the families of the Levites by their clans.

21From Gershon came the family of the Libnites and the family of the Shimeites; these were the families of the Gershonites.

22Those of them who were numbered, counting every male from a month old and upward, were 7,500.

23The families of the Gershonites were to camp behind the tabernacle toward the west.

24Now the leader of the clan of the Gershonites was Eliasaph son of Lael.

25And the responsibilities of the Gershonites in the tent of meeting included the tabernacle, the tent with its covering, the curtain at the entrance of the tent of meeting,

26the hangings of the courtyard, the curtain at the entrance to the courtyard that surrounded the tabernacle and the altar, and their ropes, plus all the service connected with these things.
