And she bore to Amram Aaron and Moses and Miriam their sister. 60 (AP)And to Aaron were born Nadab, Abihu, Eleazar, and Ithamar. 61 (AQ)But Nadab and Abihu died when they offered unauthorized fire before the Lord. 62 And those listed were (AR)23,000, every male from a month old and upward. For (AS)they were not listed among the people of Israel, because (AT)there was no inheritance given to them among the people of Israel.
63 These were those listed by Moses and Eleazar the priest, who listed the people of Israel (AU)in the plains of Moab by the Jordan at Jericho. 64 (AV)But among these there was not one of those listed by Moses and Aaron the priest, who had listed the people of Israel in the wilderness of Sinai. 65 For the Lord had said of them, (AW)“They shall die in the wilderness.” Not one of them was left, (AX)except Caleb the son of Jephunneh and Joshua the son of Nun.

Hazlo según el número de nombres registrados. 54 A la tribu más numerosa le darás la heredad más grande, y a la tribu menos numerosa le darás la heredad más pequeña. Cada tribu recibirá su heredad en proporción al número de censados. 55 La tierra deberá repartirse por sorteo, según el nombre de las tribus patriarcales. 56 El sorteo se hará entre todas las tribus, grandes y pequeñas».

62 Los levitas mayores de un mes de edad fueron en total veintitrés mil. Pero no fueron censados junto con los demás israelitas porque no habrían de recibir heredad entre ellos.
63 Estos fueron los israelitas censados por Moisés y el sacerdote Eleazar, cuando los contaron en las llanuras de Moab, cerca del río Jordán, a la altura de Jericó. 64 Entre los censados no figuraba ninguno de los registrados en el censo que Moisés y el sacerdote Aarón habían hecho antes en el desierto del Sinaí, 65 porque el Señor había dicho que todos morirían en el desierto. Con la excepción de Caleb, hijo de Jefone, y de Josué, hijo de Nun, ninguno de ellos quedó con vida.
