1 The Lord spoke to Moses and to Aaron: 2 “Every one of the Israelites must camp under his standard with the emblems of his family; they must camp at some distance around the tent of meeting.⁠a 3 “Now those who will be camping on the east, toward the sunrise, are the divisions of the camp of Judah under their standard.

The leader of the people of Gad is Eliasaph son of Deuel. 15 Those numbered in his division are 45,650. 16 All those numbered of the camp of Reuben, according to their divisions, are 151,450. They will travel second. 17 “Then the tent of meeting with the camp of the Levites will travel in the middle of the camps. They will travel in the same order as they camped, each in his own place under his standard.⁠b 18 “On the west will be the divisions of the camp of Ephraim under their standard.

They will travel third. 25 “On the north will be the divisions of the camp of Dan, under their standards.

They will travel last, under their standards.” 32 These are the Israelites, numbered according to their families. All those numbered in the camps, by their divisions, are 603,550.⁠c 33 But the Levites were not numbered among the other Israelites, as the Lord commanded Moses. 34 So the Israelites did according to all that the Lord commanded Moses; that is the way they camped under their standards, and that is the way they traveled, each with his clan and family.
