Numbers 26:51-62

51In summary, the registered troops of all Israel numbered 601,730.

52Then the Lord said to Moses,

53“Divide the land among the tribes, and distribute the grants of land in proportion to the tribes’ populations, as indicated by the number of names on the list.

54Give the larger tribes more land and the smaller tribes less land, each group receiving a grant in proportion to the size of its population.

55But you must assign the land by lot, and give land to each ancestral tribe according to the number of names on the list.

56Each grant of land must be assigned by lot among the larger and smaller tribal groups.”

57This is the record of the Levites who were counted according to their clans: The Gershonite clan, named after their ancestor Gershon. The Kohathite clan, named after their ancestor Kohath. The Merarite clan, named after their ancestor Merari.

58The Libnites, the Hebronites, the Mahlites, the Mushites, and the Korahites were all subclans of the Levites. Now Kohath was the ancestor of Amram,

59and Amram’s wife was named Jochebed. She also was a descendant of Levi, born among the Levites in the land of Egypt. Amram and Jochebed became the parents of Aaron, Moses, and their sister, Miriam.

60To Aaron were born Nadab, Abihu, Eleazar, and Ithamar.

61But Nadab and Abihu died when they burned before the Lord the wrong kind of fire, different than he had commanded.

62The men from the Levite clans who were one month old or older numbered 23,000. But the Levites were not included in the registration of the rest of the people of Israel because they were not given an allotment of land when it was divided among the Israelites.
