營地的安排
2 耶和華對摩西和亞倫說： 2 「以色列人要各歸本旗，按本族的旗號，在會幕四圍稍遠的地方安營。」 3 東邊，即日出的方向，是猶大營區及其旗號。猶大人的首領是亞米拿達的兒子拿順， 4 率領七萬四千六百人。 5 在猶大支派旁邊安營的是以薩迦支派，首領是蘇押的兒子拿坦業， 6 率領五萬四千四百人。 7 然後是西布倫支派，首領是希倫的兒子以利押， 8 率領五萬七千四百人。 9 猶大營區的人共十八萬六千四百人，他們是開路先鋒。
10 南邊是呂便營區及其旗號。呂便人的首領是示丟珥的兒子以利蘇， 11 率領四萬六千五百人。 12 在呂便支派旁邊安營的是西緬支派，首領是蘇利沙代的兒子示路蔑， 13 率領五萬九千三百人。 14 然後是迦得支派，首領是丟珥的兒子以利雅薩， 15 率領四萬五千六百五十人。 16 呂便營區共十五萬一千四百五十人，他們是第二隊。 17 隨後是會幕和利未人的營區，在其他各營中間。他們各就各位，各歸本旗，照安營時的次序出發。
18 西邊是以法蓮營區及其旗號。以法蓮人的首領是亞米忽的兒子以利沙瑪， 19 率領四萬零五百人。 20 以法蓮支派旁邊是瑪拿西支派，首領是比大蘇的兒子迦瑪列， 21 率領三萬二千二百人。 22 然後是便雅憫支派，首領是基多尼的兒子亞比但， 23 率領三萬五千四百人。 24 以法蓮營區共十萬八千一百人，他們是第三隊。
25 北邊是但營區及其旗號。但人的首領是亞米沙代的兒子亞希以謝， 26 率領六萬二千七百人。 27 在但支派旁邊安營的是亞設支派，首領是俄蘭的兒子帕結， 28 率領四萬一千五百人。 29 然後是拿弗他利支派，首領是以南的兒子亞希拉， 30 率領五萬三千四百人。 31 但營區共有十五萬七千六百人，他們是後隊。
32 以上照宗族和隊伍統計的以色列人共六十萬三千五百五十名。 33 照耶和華對摩西的吩咐，利未人沒被統計在其中。
34 於是，以色列人照耶和華對摩西的吩咐，各按自己的旗號安營，各按自己的宗族啟行。
