⁴ But if they blow only one, then ^(A)the chiefs, the heads of the tribes of Israel, shall gather themselves to you.

^2 (A)the chiefs of Israel, heads of their fathers' houses, who were the chiefs of the tribes, who were over those who were listed, approached

²¹ Moreover, look for ^(A)able men from all the people, men who fear God, who are trustworthy and hate a bribe, and place such men over the people as chiefs of thousands, of hundreds, of fifties, and of tens.

¹⁵ So I took the heads of your tribes, wise and experienced men, ^(A)and set them as heads over you, commanders of thousands, commanders of hundreds, commanders of fifties, commanders of tens, and officers, throughout your tribes.

⁴ And there shall be with you a man from each tribe, each man being the head of the house of his fathers. ⁵ And these are the names of the men who shall assist you. From Reuben, ^(A)Elizur the son of Shedeur; ⁶ from Simeon, ^(B)Shelumiel the son of Zurishaddai; ⁷ from Judah, ^(C)Nahshon the son of Amminadab; ⁸ from Issachar, ^(D)Nethanel the son of Zuar; ⁹ from Zebulun, ^(E)Eliab the son of Helon; ¹⁰ from the sons of Joseph, from Ephraim, ^(F)Elishama the son of Ammihud, and from Manasseh, ^(G)Gamaliel the son of Pedahzur; ¹¹ from Benjamin, ^(H)Abidan the son of Gideoni; ¹² from Dan, ^(I)Ahiezer the son of Ammishaddai; ¹³ from Asher, ^(J)Pagiel the son of Ochran; ¹⁴ from Gad, Eliasaph the son of ^(K)Deuel; ¹⁵ from Naphtali, ^(L)Ahira the son of Enan.” ¹⁶ These were the ones ^(M)chosen from the congregation, ^(N)the chiefs of their ancestral tribes, the heads of the clans of Israel.
