^30 31 Those that were numbered of them, _even_ of the tribe of Zebulun, _were_ fifty-seven thousand four hundred. ^31 32 ¶ Of 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; ^32 33 Those that were numbered of them, _even_ of the tribe of Ephraim, _were_ forty thousand five hundred. ^33 34 ¶ Of 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;

and they shall minister unto it, and shall encamp round about the tabernacle. ^50 51 And when the tabernacle sets 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 comes nigh shall be put to death. ^51 52 And the children of Israel shall pitch their tents, every man by his own camp, and every man by his own standard, throughout their hosts. ^52 53 But 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. ^53 54 And the children of Israel did according to all that the LORD commanded Moses, so did they. ^54
