    ¹⁸And assembled all the congregation on the first day of the second month, and they declared their ancestry after their families, by their fathers' houses, according to the number of names from twenty years old and upward, head by head,

    ¹⁹As the Lord commanded Moses. So he numbered them in the Wilderness of Sinai.

    ²⁰The sons of Reuben, Israel's firstborn, their generations, by their families, by their fathers' houses, according to the number of names, head by head, every male from twenty years old and upward, all who were able to go to war:

    ⁴³Those of the tribe of Naphtali numbered 53,400.

    ⁴⁴These were numbered by Moses and Aaron, and the leaders of Israel, twelve men, each representing his father's house.

    ⁴⁵So all those numbered of the Israelites, by their fathers' houses, from twenty years old and upward, able to go to war in Israel,

    ⁴⁶All who were numbered were 603,550.

    ⁴⁷But the Levites by their fathers' tribe were not numbered with them.

    ⁴⁸For the Lord had said to Moses,

    ⁴⁹Only the tribe of Levi you shall not number in the census of the Israelites.

    ⁵⁰But appoint the Levites over the tabernacle of the Testimony, and over all its vessels and furnishings and all things that belong to it. They shall carry the tabernacle [when journeying] and all its furnishings, and they shall minister to it and encamp around it.

    ⁵¹When the tabernacle is to go forward, the Levites shall take it down, and when the tabernacle is to be pitched, the Levites shall set it up. And the excluded [any not of the tribe of Levi] who approach the tabernacle shall be put to death.

    ⁵²The Israelites shall pitch their tents by their companies, every man by his own camp and every man by his own [tribal] standard.

    ⁵³But the Levites shall encamp around the tabernacle of the Testimony, that there may be no wrath upon the congregation of the Israelites; and the Levites shall keep charge of the tabernacle of the Testimony.

    ⁵⁴Thus did the Israelites; according to all that the Lord commanded Moses, so they did.

Mark 3

    ²And [the Pharisees] kept watching Jesus [closely] to see whether He would cure him on the Sabbath, so that they might get a charge to bring against Him [^[b]formally].

    ³And He said to the man who had the withered hand, Get up [and stand here] in the midst.

    ⁴And He said to them, Is it lawful and right on the Sabbath to do good or to do evil, to save life or to take it? But they kept silence.

    ⁵And He glanced around at them with vexation and anger, grieved at the hardening of their hearts, and said to the man, Hold out your hand. He held it out, and his hand was [completely] restored.

    ⁶Then the Pharisees went out and immediately held a consultation with the Herodians against Him, how they might [devise some means to] put Him to death.

    ⁷And Jesus retired with His disciples to the lake, and a great throng from Galilee followed Him. Also from Judea

    ⁸And from Jerusalem and Idumea and from beyond the Jordan and from about Tyre and Sidon--a vast multitude, hearing all the many things that He was doing, came to Him.

    ⁹And He told His disciples to have a little boat in [constant] readiness for Him because of the crowd, lest they press hard upon Him and crush Him.

    ¹⁰For He had healed so many that all who had distressing bodily diseases kept falling upon Him and pressing upon Him in order that they might touch Him.

    ¹¹And the spirits, the unclean ones, ^[c]as often as they might see Him, fell down before Him and kept screaming out, You are the Son of God!

    ¹²And He charged them strictly and severely under penalty again and again that they should not make Him known.

    ¹³And He went up on the hillside and called to Him [^[d]for Himself] those whom He wanted and chose, and they came to Him.

    ¹⁴And He appointed twelve to ^[e]continue to be with Him, and that He might send them out to preach [as apostles or special messengers]

    ¹⁵And to have authority and power to heal the sick and to drive out demons:

    ¹⁶[They were] Simon, and He surnamed [him] Peter;

    ¹⁷James son of Zebedee and John the brother of James, and He surnamed them Boanerges, that is, Sons of Thunder;

    ¹⁸And Andrew, and Philip, and Bartholomew (Nathaniel), and Matthew, and Thomas, and James son of Alphaeus, and Thaddaeus (Judas, not Iscariot), and Simon the Cananaean [also called Zelotes],

    ¹⁹And Judas Iscariot, he who betrayed Him.
