Numbers 26:1-7 ▼

1 And it came to pass after the plague that YHWH spoke to Moses and Eleazar son of Aaron the priest, saying,

2 “Take a census of all the congregation of the sons of Israel, from a son of twenty years and above, by the house of their fathers—all who are able to go to war in Israel.”

3 And Moses and Eleazar the priest spoke with them in the plains of Moab by the Jordan near Jericho, saying,

4 “From a son of twenty years and above, as YHWH has commanded Moses.” And the sons of Israel who came out of the land of Egypt:

5 Reuben was the firstborn of Israel. The sons of Reuben: Of Hanoch, the clan of the Hanochite; of Pallu, the clan of the Palluite;

6 of Hezron, the clan of the Hezronite; of Carmi, the clan of the Carmite.

7 These are the clans of the Reubenite, and those numbered were three and forty thousand and seven hundred and thirty.
