Numbers 2:1-13 ▼

1 And the LORD spake unto Moses and unto Aaron, saying,

2 Every man of the children of Israel shall pitch by his own standard, with the ensign of their father's house: far off about the tabernacle of the congregation shall they pitch.

3 And on the east side toward the rising of the sun shall they of the standard of the camp of Judah pitch throughout their armies: and Nahshon the son of Amminadab [shall be] captain of the children of Judah.

4 And his host, and those that were numbered of them, [were] threescore and fourteen thousand and six hundred.

5 And those that do pitch next unto him [shall be] the tribe of Issachar: and Nethaneel the son of Zuar [shall be] captain of the children of Issachar.

6 And his host, and those that were numbered thereof, [were] fifty and four thousand and four hundred.

7 [Then] the tribe of Zebulun: and Eliab the son of Helon [shall be] captain of the children of Zebulun.

8 And his host, and those that were numbered thereof, [were] fifty and seven thousand and four hundred.

9 All that were numbered in the camp of Judah [were] an hundred thousand and fourscore thousand and six thousand and four hundred, throughout their armies. These shall first set forth.

10 On the south side [shall be] the standard of the camp of Reuben according to their armies: and the captain of the children of Reuben [shall be] Elizur the son of Shedeur.

11 And his host, and those that were numbered thereof, [were] forty and six thousand and five hundred.

12 And those which pitch by him [shall be] the tribe of Simeon: and the captain of the children of Simeon [shall be] Shelumiel the son of Zurishaddai.

13 And his host, and those that were numbered of them, [were] fifty and nine thousand and three hundred.
