Census of the Levites Commanded(A)

14 Then the Lord spoke to Moses in the Wilderness of Sinai, saying: 15 “Number the children of Levi by their fathers’ houses, by their families; you shall number (B)every male from a month old and above.”

16 So Moses numbered them according to the [a]word of the Lord, as he was commanded. 17 (C)These were the sons of Levi by their names: Gershon, Kohath, and Merari. 18 And these are the names of the sons of (D)Gershon by their families: (E)Libni and Shimei. 19 And the sons of (F)Kohath by their families: (G)Amram, Izehar, Hebron, and Uzziel. 20 (H)And the sons of Merari by their families: Mahli and Mushi. These are the families of the Levites by their fathers’ houses.
