< 民數記 1 >
1 以色列人出埃及地後,第二年二月初一日,耶和華在西奈的曠野、會幕中曉諭摩西說:
The LORD spoke to Moses in the wilderness of Sinai, in the Tent of Meeting, on the first day of the second month, in the second year after they had come out of the land of Egypt, saying,
2 「你要按以色列全會眾的家室、宗族、人名的數目計算所有的男丁。
“Take a census of all the congregation of the children of Israel, by their families, by their fathers’ houses, according to the number of the names, every male, one by one,
3 凡以色列中,從二十歲以外,能出去打仗的,你和亞倫要照他們的軍隊數點。
from twenty years old and upward, all who are able to go out to war in Israel. You and Aaron shall count them by their divisions.
With you there shall be a man of every tribe, each one head of his fathers’ house.
These are the names of the men who shall stand with you: Of Reuben: Elizur the son of Shedeur.
Of Simeon: Shelumiel the son of Zurishaddai.
Of Judah: Nahshon the son of Amminadab.
Of Issachar: Nethanel the son of Zuar.
Of Zebulun: Eliab the son of Helon.
10 約瑟子孫、屬以法蓮的,有亞米忽的兒子以利沙瑪;屬瑪拿西的,有比大蓿的兒子迦瑪列;
Of the children of Joseph: of Ephraim: Elishama the son of Ammihud; of Manasseh: Gamaliel the son of Pedahzur.

16 這都是從會中選召的,各作本支派的首領,都是以色列軍中的統領。」
These are those who were called of the congregation, the princes of the tribes of their fathers; they were the heads of the thousands of Israel.
Moses and Aaron took these men who are mentioned by name.
18 當二月初一日招聚全會眾。會眾就照他們的家室、宗族、人名的數目,從二十歲以外的,都述說自己的家譜。
They assembled all the congregation together on the first day of the second month; and they declared their ancestry by their families, by their fathers’ houses, according to the number of the names, from twenty years old and upward, one by one.

But the Levites after the tribe of their fathers were not counted among them.
For the LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
49 「惟獨利未支派你不可數點,也不可在以色列人中計算他們的總數。
“Only the tribe of Levi you shall not count, neither shall you take a census of them among the children of Israel;
50 只要派利未人管法櫃的帳幕和其中的器具,並屬乎帳幕的;他們要抬帳幕和其中的器具,並要辦理帳幕的事,在帳幕的四圍安營。
but appoint the Levites over the Tabernacle of the Testimony, and over all its furnishings, and over all that belongs to it. They shall carry the tabernacle and all its furnishings; and they shall take care of it, and shall encamp around it.
51 帳幕將往前行的時候,利未人要拆卸;將支搭的時候,利未人要豎起。近前來的外人必被治死。
When the tabernacle is to move, the Levites shall take it down; and when the tabernacle is to be set up, the Levites shall set it up. The stranger who comes near shall be put to death.
52 以色列人支搭帳棚,要照他們的軍隊,各歸本營,各歸本纛。
The children of Israel shall pitch their tents, every man by his own camp, and every man by his own standard, according to their divisions.
53 但利未人要在法櫃帳幕的四圍安營,免得忿怒臨到以色列會眾;利未人並要謹守法櫃的帳幕。」
But the Levites shall encamp around the Tabernacle of the Testimony, that there may be no wrath on the congregation of the children of Israel. The Levites shall be responsible for the Tabernacle of the Testimony.”
54 以色列人就這樣行。凡耶和華所吩咐摩西的,他們就照樣行了。
Thus the children of Israel did. According to all that the LORD commanded Moses, so they did.
