4. Mose
1Und der HERR redete mit Mose in der Wüste Sinai in der Hütte des Stifts am ersten Tage des zweiten Monats im zweiten Jahr, da sie aus Ägyptenland gegangen waren, und sprach:2Nehmet die Summe der ganzen Gemeinde der Kinder Israel nach ihren Geschlechtern und Vaterhäusern und Namen, alles, was männlich ist, von Haupt zu Haupt,3von zwanzig Jahren an und darüber, was ins Heer zu ziehen taugt in Israel; ihr sollt sie zählen nach ihren Heeren, du und Aaron.4Und sollt zu euch nehmen je vom Stamm einen Hauptmann über sein Vaterhaus.5Dies sind die Namen der Hauptleute, die neben euch stehen sollen: von Ruben sei Elizur, der Sohn Sedeurs;6von Simeon sei Selumiel, der Sohn Zuri-Saddais;7von Juda sei Nahesson, der Sohn Amminadabs;8von Isaschar sei Nathanael, der Sohn Zuars;9von Sebulon sei Eliab, der Sohn Helons;10von den Kindern Josephs: von Ephraim sei Elisama, der Sohn Ammihuds; von Manasse sei Gamliel, der Sohn Pedazurs;11von Benjamin sei Abidan, der Sohn des Gideoni;12von Dan sei Ahieser, der Sohn Ammi-Saddais;13von Asser sei Pagiel, der Sohn Ochrans;14von Gad sei Eljasaph, der Sohn Deguels;15von Naphthali sei Ahira, der Sohn Enans.16Das sind die Vornehmsten der Gemeinde, die Fürsten unter den Stämmen ihrer Väter, die da Häupter über die Tausende in Israel waren.17Und Mose und Aaron nahmen sie zu sich, wie sie da mit Namen genannt sind,18und sammelten auch die ganze Gemeinde am ersten Tage des zweiten Monats und rechneten nach ihrer Geburt, nach ihren Geschlechtern und Vaterhäusern und Namen, von zwanzig Jahren an und darüber, von Haupt zu Haupt,19wie der HERR dem Mose geboten hatte, und zählten sie in der Wüste Sinai.20Der Kinder Ruben, des ersten Sohnes Israels, nach ihrer Geburt und Geschlecht, ihren Vaterhäusern und Namen, von Haupt zu Haupt, alles, was männlich war, von zwanzig Jahren und darüber, und ins Heer zu ziehen taugte,21wurden gezählt vom Stamme Ruben sechsundvierzigtausend und fünfhundert.22Der Kinder Simeon nach ihrer Geburt und Geschlecht, ihren Vaterhäusern, Zahl und Namen, von Haupt zu Haupt, alles, was männlich war, von zwanzig Jahren und darüber, und ins Heer zu ziehen taugte,23wurden gezählt zum Stamm Simeon neunundfünfzigtausend und dreihundert.24Der Kinder Gad nach ihrer Geburt und Geschlecht, ihren Vaterhäusern und Namen, von zwanzig Jahren und darüber, und ins Heer zu ziehen taugte,25wurden gezählt zum Stamm Gad fünfundvierzigtausend sechshundertundfünfzig.26Der Kinder Juda nach ihrer Geburt und Geschlecht, ihren Vaterhäusern und Namen, von zwanzig Jahren und darüber, was ins Heer zu ziehen taugte,27wurden gezählt zum Stamm Juda vierundsiebzigtausend und sechshundert.28Der Kinder Isaschar nach ihrer Geburt und Geschlecht, ihren Vaterhäusern und Namen, von zwanzig Jahren und darüber, was ins Heer zu ziehen taugte,29wurden gezählt zum Stamm Isaschar vierundfünfzigtausend und vierhundert.30Der Kinder Sebulon nach ihrer Geburt und Geschlecht, ihren Vaterhäusern und Namen, von zwanzig Jahren und darüber, was ins Heer zu ziehen taugte,31wurden gezählt zum Stamm Sebulon siebenundfünfzigtausend und vierhundert.32Der Kinder Joseph von Ephraim nach ihrer Geburt und Geschlecht, ihren Vaterhäusern und Namen, von zwanzig Jahren und darüber, was ins Heer zu ziehen taugte,33wurden gezählt zum Stamm Ephraim vierzigtausend und fünfhundert.34Der Kinder Manasse nach ihrer Geburt und Geschlecht, ihren Vaterhäusern und Namen, von zwanzig Jahren und darüber, was ins Heer zu ziehen taugte,35wurden zum Stamm Manasse gezählt zweiunddreißigtausend und zweihundert.36Der Kinder Benjamin nach ihrer Geburt und Geschlecht, ihren Vaterhäusern und Namen, von zwanzig Jahren und darüber, was ins Heer zu ziehen taugte,37wurden zum Stamm Benjamin gezählt fünfunddreißigtausend und vierhundert.38Der Kinder Dan nach ihrer Geburt und Geschlecht, ihren Vaterhäusern und Namen, von zwanzig Jahren und darüber, was ins Heer zu ziehen taugte,39wurden gezählt zum Stamme Dan zweiundsechzigtausend und siebenhundert.40Der Kinder Asser nach ihrer Geburt und Geschlecht, ihren Vaterhäusern und Namen, von zwanzig Jahren und darüber, was ins Heer zu ziehen taugte,41wurden gezählt zum Stamm Asser einundvierzigtausend und fünfhundert.42Der Kinder Naphthali nach ihrer Geburt und Geschlecht, ihren Vaterhäusern und Namen, von zwanzig Jahren und darüber, was ins Heer zu ziehen taugte,43wurden zum Stamm Naphthali gezählt dreiundfünfzigtausend und vierhundert.44Dies sind, die Mose und Aaron zählten samt den zwölf Fürsten Israels, deren je einer über ein Vaterhaus war.45Und die Summe der Kinder Israel nach ihrer Geburt und Geschlecht, ihren Vaterhäusern und Namen, von zwanzig Jahren und darüber, was ins Heer zu ziehen taugte in Israel,46war sechsmal hunderttausend und dreitausend fünfhundertundfünfzig.47Aber die Leviten nach ihrer Väter Stamm wurden nicht mit darunter gezählt.48Und der HERR redete mit Mose und sprach:49Den Stamm Levi sollst du nicht zählen noch ihre Summe nehmen unter den Kindern Israel,50sondern du sollst sie ordnen zur Wohnung des Zeugnisses und zu allem Geräte und allem, was dazu gehört. Und sie sollen die Wohnung tragen und alles Gerät und sollen sein pflegen und um die Wohnung her sich lagern.51Und wenn man reisen soll, so sollen die Leviten die Wohnung abnehmen. Wenn aber das Heer zu lagern ist, sollen sie die Wohnung aufschlagen. Und wo ein Fremder sich dazumacht, der soll sterben.52Die Kinder Israel sollen sich lagern, ein jeglicher in sein Lager und zu dem Panier seiner Schar.53Aber die Leviten sollen sich um die Wohnung des Zeugnisses her lagern, auf daß nicht ein Zorn über die Gemeinde der Kinder Israel komme; darum sollen die Leviten des Dienstes warten an der Wohnung des Zeugnisses.54Und die Kinder Israel taten alles, wie der HERR dem Mose geboten hatte.
1And the LORD spake unto Moses in the wilderness of Sinai, in the tabernacle of the congregation, on the first day of the second month, in the second year after they were come out of the land of Egypt, saying,2Take ye the sum of all the congregation of the children of Israel, after their families, by the house of their fathers, with the number of their names, every male by their polls;3From twenty years old and upward, all that are able to go forth to war in Israel: thou and Aaron shall number them by their armies.4And with you there shall be a man of every tribe; every one head of the house of his fathers.5And these are the names of the men that shall stand with you: of the tribe of Reuben; Elizur the son of Shedeur.6Of Simeon; Shelumiel the son of Zurishaddai.7Of Judah; Nahshon the son of Amminadab.8Of Issachar; Nethaneel the son of Zuar.9Of Zebulun; Eliab the son of Helon.10Of the children of Joseph: of Ephraim; Elishama the son of Ammihud: of Manasseh; Gamaliel the son of Pedahzur.11Of Benjamin; Abidan the son of Gideoni.12Of Dan; Ahiezer the son of Ammishaddai.13Of Asher; Pagiel the son of Ocran.14Of Gad; Eliasaph the son of Deuel.15Of Naphtali; Ahira the son of Enan.16These were the renowned of the congregation, princes of the tribes of their fathers, heads of thousands in Israel.17And Moses and Aaron took these men which are expressed by their names:18And they assembled all the congregation together on the first day of the second month, and they declared their pedigrees after their families, by the house of their fathers, according to the number of the names, from twenty years old and upward, by their polls.19As the LORD commanded Moses, so he numbered them in the wilderness of Sinai.20And the children of Reuben, Israel's eldest son, by their generations, after their families, by the house of their fathers, according to the number of the names, by their polls, every male from twenty years old and upward, all that were able to go forth to war;21Those that were numbered of them, even of the tribe of Reuben, were forty and six thousand and five hundred.22Of the children of Simeon, by their generations, after their families, by the house of their fathers, those that were numbered of them, according to the number of the names, by their polls, every male from twenty years old and upward, all that were able to go forth to war;23Those that were numbered of them, even of the tribe of Simeon, were fifty and nine thousand and three hundred.24Of the children of Gad, by their generations, after their families, by the house of their fathers, according to the number of the names, from twenty years old and upward, all that were able to go forth to war;25Those that were numbered of them, even of the tribe of Gad, were forty and five thousand six hundred and fifty.26Of the children of Judah, by their generations, after their families, by the house of their fathers, according to the number of the names, from twenty years old and upward, all that were able to go forth to war;27Those that were numbered of them, even of the tribe of Judah, were threescore and fourteen thousand and six hundred.28Of the children of Issachar, by their generations, after their families, by the house of their fathers, according to the number of the names, from twenty years old and upward, all that were able to go forth to war;29Those that were numbered of them, even of the tribe of Issachar, were fifty and four thousand and four hundred.30Of the children of Zebulun, by their generations, after their families, by the house of their fathers, according to the number of the names, from twenty years old and upward, all that were able to go forth to war;31Those that were numbered of them, even of the tribe of Zebulun, were fifty and seven thousand and four hundred.32Of the children of Joseph, namely , of the children of Ephraim, by their generations, after their families, by the house of their fathers, according to the number of the names, from twenty years old and upward, all that were able to go forth to war;33Those that were numbered of them, even of the tribe of Ephraim, were forty thousand and five hundred.34Of the children of Manasseh, by their generations, after their families, by the house of their fathers, according to the number of the names, from twenty years old and upward, all that were able to go forth to war;35Those that were numbered of them, even of the tribe of Manasseh, were thirty and two thousand and two hundred.36Of the children of Benjamin, by their generations, after their families, by the house of their fathers, according to the number of the names, from twenty years old and upward, all that were able to go forth to war;37Those that were numbered of them, even of the tribe of Benjamin, were thirty and five thousand and four hundred.38Of the children of Dan, by their generations, after their families, by the house of their fathers, according to the number of the names, from twenty years old and upward, all that were able to go forth to war;39Those that were numbered of them, even of the tribe of Dan, were threescore and two thousand and seven hundred.40Of the children of Asher, by their generations, after their families, by the house of their fathers, according to the number of the names, from twenty years old and upward, all that were able to go forth to war;41Those that were numbered of them, even of the tribe of Asher, were forty and one thousand and five hundred.42Of the children of Naphtali, throughout their generations, after their families, by the house of their fathers, according to the number of the names, from twenty years old and upward, all that were able to go forth to war;43Those that were numbered of them, even of the tribe of Naphtali, were fifty and three thousand and four hundred.44These are those that were numbered, which Moses and Aaron numbered, and the princes of Israel, being twelve men: each one was for the house of his fathers.45So were all those that were numbered of the children of Israel, by the house of their fathers, from twenty years old and upward, all that were able to go forth to war in Israel;46Even all they that were numbered were six hundred thousand and three thousand and five hundred and fifty.47But the Levites after the tribe of their fathers were not numbered among them.48For the LORD had spoken unto Moses, saying,49Only thou shalt not number the tribe of Levi, neither take the sum of them among the children of Israel:50But thou shalt appoint the Levites over the tabernacle of testimony, and over all the vessels thereof, and over all things that belong to it: they shall bear the tabernacle, and all the vessels thereof; and they shall minister unto it, and shall encamp round about the tabernacle.51And when the tabernacle setteth forward, the Levites shall take it down: and when the tabernacle is to be pitched, the Levites shall set it up: and the stranger that cometh nigh shall be put to death.52And the children of Israel shall pitch their tents, every man by his own camp, and every man by his own standard, throughout their hosts.53But the Levites shall pitch round about the tabernacle of testimony, that there be no wrath upon the congregation of the children of Israel: and the Levites shall keep the charge of the tabernacle of testimony.54And the children of Israel did according to all that the LORD commanded Moses, so did they.
