Numbers 26:1-4

New King James Version

The Second Census of Israel

26 And it came to pass, after the ^(A)plague, that the Lord spoke to Moses and Eleazar the son of Aaron the priest, saying: ^2 (B)“Take a census of all the congregation of the children of Israel ^(C)from twenty years old and above, by their fathers’ houses, all who are able to go to war in Israel.” ³ So Moses and Eleazar the priest spoke with them ^(D)in the plains of Moab by the Jordan, across from Jericho, saying: ⁴ “Take a census of the people from twenty years old and above, just as the Lord ^(E)commanded Moses and the children of Israel who came out of the land of Egypt.”
