各支派扎营的次序和位置

耶和华对摩西和亚伦说: “以色列人要各归自己的旗下,在自己父家的旗号下安营;他们要在会幕四周稍远的地方安营。 在东方向着日出之地,按着队伍安营的,是犹大营的旗号;犹大人的领袖是亚米拿达的儿子拿顺。 他的队伍被数点的,共有七万四千六百人。 在他旁边安营的,是以萨迦支派;以萨迦人的领袖是苏押的儿子拿坦业, 他的队伍被数点的,共有五万四千四百人。 又有西布伦支派;西布伦人的领袖是希伦的儿子以利押。 他的队伍被数点的,共有五万七千四百人。 凡是属犹大营,按着队伍被数点的,共有十八万六千四百人;他们要首先出发。

10 “在南方,按着队伍,是流本营的旗号;流本人的领袖是示丢珥的儿子以利蓿。 11 他的队伍被数点的,共有四万六千五百人。 12 在他旁边安营的,是西缅支派;西缅人的领袖是苏利沙代的儿子示路蔑。 13 他的队伍被数点的,共有五万九千三百人。 14 又有迦得支派;迦得人的领袖是丢珥的儿子以利雅萨。 15 他的队伍被数点的,共有四万五千六百五十人。 16 凡是属流本营,按着队伍被数点的,共有十五万一千四百五十人;他们要作第二队起行。

17 “会幕和利未人的营要在众营中间前行;他们怎样安营,就怎样出发前行;各按本位,各归本旗。

18 “在西方,按着队伍,是以法莲营的旗号;以法莲人的领袖是亚米忽的儿子以利沙玛。 19 他的队伍被数点的,共有四万零五百人。 20 在他旁边的,是玛拿西支派,玛拿西人的领袖是比大蓿的儿子迦玛列。 21 他的队伍被数点的,共有三万二千二百人。 22 又有便雅悯支派;便雅悯人的领袖是基多尼的儿子亚比但。 23 他的队伍被数点的,共有三万五千四百人。 24 凡是属以法莲营,按着队伍被数点的,共有十万零八千一百人;他们要作第三队起行。

25 “在北方,按着队伍,是但营的旗号;但人的领袖是亚米沙代的儿子亚希以谢。 26 他的队伍被数点的,共有六万二千七百人。 27 在他旁边安营的,是亚设支派;亚设人的领袖是俄兰的儿子帕结。 28 他的队伍被数点的,共有四万一千五百人。 29 又有拿弗他利支派;拿弗他利人的领袖是以南的儿子亚希拉。 30 他的队伍被数点的,共有五万三千四百人。 31 凡是属但营被数点的,共有十五万七千六百人;他们要随着自己的旗号,最后起行。”

32 以上是照着他们的父家被数点的以色列人;所有按着他们的队伍在众营中被数点的,共有六十万零三千五百五十人。 33 只有利未人没有数点在以色列人中,这是耶和华吩咐摩西的。 34 以色列人就照着耶和华吩咐摩西的一切行了,他们随着自己的旗号安营,各人按着自己的宗族和父家起行。

Arrangement of the Camps

The Lord spoke to Moses and Aaron, saying, “The sons of Israel shall camp, each by his own standard, with the [a]banners of their fathers’ households; they shall camp around the Tent of Meeting (tabernacle), but at a distance. Those who camp on the east side toward the sunrise shall be of the [b]standard of the camp of Judah, by their armies; and Nahshon the son of Amminadab shall lead the sons of Judah, and his army as numbered totaled 74,600. Next to Judah [on the east side] the tribe of Issachar shall encamp; and Nethanel the son of Zuar shall lead the sons of Issachar, and his army as numbered totaled 54,400. Then [also on the east side] the tribe of Zebulun; and Eliab the son of Helon shall lead the sons of Zebulun, and his army as numbered totaled 57,400. The total of the numbered men [in the three tribes on the east side] in the camp of Judah was 186,400, by their armies. They shall move out first [on the march].

10 “On the south side shall be the [c]standard of the camp of Reuben, by their armies; and Elizur the son of Shedeur shall lead the sons of Reuben, 11 and his army as numbered totaled 46,500. 12 Those who camp next to Reuben [on the south side] shall be the tribe of Simeon; and Shelumiel the son of Zurishaddai shall lead the sons of Simeon, 13 and his army as numbered totaled 59,300. 14 Then [completing the south side] the tribe of Gad; and Eliasaph the son of Reuel (Deuel) shall lead the sons of Gad, 15 and his army as numbered totaled 45,650. 16 The total of the numbered men [in the three tribes on the south side] in the camp of Reuben was 151,450, by their armies. They shall move out second [on the march].

17 “Then the Tent of Meeting (tabernacle) shall move out with the camp of the Levites in the middle of the [other] camps; just as they camp so shall they move out, every man in his place by their standards.

18 “On the west side shall be the [d]standard of the camp of Ephraim, by their armies; and Elishama the son of Ammihud shall lead the sons of Ephraim, 19 and his army as numbered totaled 40,500. 20 Beside Ephraim [on the west side] shall be the tribe of Manasseh; and Gamaliel the son of Pedahzur shall lead the sons of Manasseh, 21 and his army as numbered totaled 32,200. 22 Then [completing the west side shall be] the tribe of Benjamin; and Abidan the son of Gideoni shall lead the sons of Benjamin, 23 and his army as numbered totaled 35,400. 24 The total of the numbered men [of the three tribes on the west side] in the camp of Ephraim was 108,100, by their armies. They shall move out in third place.

25 “On the north side shall be the [e]standard of the camp of Dan, by their armies; and Ahiezer the son of Ammishaddai shall lead the sons of Dan, 26 and his army as numbered totaled 62,700. 27 Encamped next to Dan [on the north side] shall be the tribe of Asher; and Pagiel the son of Ochran shall lead the sons of Asher, 28 and his army as numbered totaled 41,500. 29 Then [completing the north side] comes the tribe of Naphtali; and Ahira the son of Enan shall lead the sons of Naphtali, 30 and his army as numbered totaled 53,400. 31 The total of the numbered men [of the three tribes on the north side] in the camp of Dan was 157,600. They shall move out last, [f]standard after standard.”

32 These are the men of the Israelites [twenty years old and upward] as numbered by their fathers’ households. The total of the numbered men of the camps by their armies, 603,550. 33 But the Levites were not numbered with the [other] Israelites, just as the Lord had commanded Moses. 34 Thus the Israelites did [as ordered]; according to everything the Lord had commanded Moses, so they camped by their standards, and so they moved out, everyone with his family (clan), according to his fathers’ household.
