1 After the plague the LORD said to Moses and Eleazar, son of the priest Aaron, 2 |Take a census of the whole community of Israel by households. List those who are at least 20 years old and eligible for military duty.| 3 So Moses and the priest Eleazar spoke to the Israelites on the plains of Moab near the Jordan River across from Jericho. They said, 4 |Take a census of those at least 20 years old, as the LORD commanded Moses.| These are the Israelites who came from Egypt: 5 [Reuben] was Israel's firstborn. The descendants of Reuben were the family of Hanoch, the family of Pallu, 6 the family of Hezron, and the family of Carmi. 7 These were the families of Reuben. The total number of men was 43,730.
