Numbers 4:29-49

²⁹ 'The sons of Merari, by their families, by the house of their fathers, thou dost number them; ³⁰ from a son of thirty years and upward even unto a son of fifty years thou dost number them, every one who is going in to the host, to do the service of the tent of meeting. ³¹ 'And this 'is' the charge of their burden, of all their service in the tent of meeting; the boards of the tabernacle, and its bars, and its pillars, and its sockets, ³² and the pillars of the court round about, and their sockets, and their pins, and their cords, of all their vessels, and of all their service; and by name ye do number the vessels of the charge of their burden. ³³ 'This 'is' the service of the families of the sons of Merari, for all their service, in the tent of meeting, by the hand of Ithamar son of Aaron the priest.'

³⁴ And Moses numbereth—Aaron also, and the princes of the company—the sons of the Kohathite, by their families, and by the house of their fathers, ³⁵ from a son of thirty years and upward even unto a son of fifty years, every one who is going in to the host, for service in the tent of meeting, ³⁶ and their numbered ones, by their families, are two thousand seven hundred and fifty. ³⁷ These 'are' those numbered of the families of the Kohathite, every one who is serving in the tent of meeting, whom Moses and Aaron numbered, by the command of Jehovah, by the hand of Moses. ³⁸ And those numbered of the sons of Gershon, by their families, and by the house of their fathers, ³⁹ from a son of thirty years and upward even unto a son of fifty years, every one who is going in to the host, for service in the tent of meeting, ⁴⁰ even their numbered ones, by their families, by the house of their fathers, are two thousand and six hundred and thirty. ⁴¹ These 'are' those numbered of the families of the sons of Gershon, every one who is serving in the tent of meeting, whom Moses and Aaron numbered by the command of Jehovah. ⁴² And those numbered of the families of the sons of Merari, by their families, by the house of their fathers, ⁴³ from a son of thirty years and upward even unto a son of fifty years, every one who is going in to the host, for service in the tent of meeting, ⁴⁴ even their numbered ones, by their families, are three thousand and two hundred. ⁴⁵ These 'are' those numbered of the families of the sons of Merari, whom Moses and Aaron numbered, by the command of Jehovah, by the hand of Moses. ⁴⁶ All those numbered, whom Moses numbered—Aaron also, and the princes of Israel—of the Levites, by their families, and by the house of their fathers, ⁴⁷ from a son of thirty years and upward even unto a son of fifty years, every one who is going in to do the work of the service, even the service of burden in the tent of meeting, ⁴⁸ even their numbered ones are eight thousand and five hundred and eighty; ⁴⁹ by the command of Jehovah hath 'one' numbered them, by the hand of Moses, each man by his service, and by his burden, with his numbered ones, as Jehovah hath commanded Moses.
