Numbers 26:1-7 ▼

1 Then it happened after the plague that the LORD said to Moses and Eleazar the son of Aaron the priest,

2 “Take a census of all the [males in the] congregation of the sons of Israel from twenty years old and upward, by their fathers’ households, all in Israel who are able to go to war.”

3 So Moses and Eleazar the priest spoke with the people in the plains of Moab by the Jordan at Jericho, saying,

4 “A census of the people shall be taken from twenty years old and upward, just as the LORD has commanded Moses.” Now the Israelites who came out of the land of Egypt were:

5 Reuben, the firstborn of Israel (Jacob), the sons of Reuben: of Hanoch, the family of the Hanochites; of Pallu, the family of the Palluites;

6 of Hezron, the family of the Hezronites; of Carmi, the family of the Carmites.

7 These are the families (clans) of the Reubenites; and those who were numbered of them were 43,730.
