Ordine degli accampamenti e delle marce
2 (A)Il Signore parlò ancora a Mosè e ad Aaronne, e disse: 2 «I figli d’Israele si accamperanno ciascuno vicino alla sua bandiera sotto le insegne delle loro famiglie paterne; si accamperanno di fronte e tutto intorno alla tenda di convegno.
3 Sul davanti, verso oriente, si accamperà la bandiera del campo di Giuda con le sue schiere; 4 il capo dei figli di Giuda è Nason, figlio di Amminadab, e il suo contingente, secondo il censimento, è di settantaquattromilaseicento uomini. 5 Accanto a lui si accamperà la tribù di Issacar; il capo dei figli di Issacar è Netaneel, figlio di Suar, 6 e il suo contingente, secondo il censimento, è di cinquantaquattromilaquattrocento uomini. 7 Poi la tribù di Zabulon; il capo dei figli di Zabulon è Eliab, figlio di Chelon, 8 e il suo contingente, secondo il censimento, è di cinquantasettemilaquattrocento uomini. 9 Il totale del censimento del campo di Giuda, sommando le loro schiere, è dunque centottantaseimilaquattrocento uomini. Questi si metteranno in marcia per primi.
10 A sud starà la bandiera del campo di Ruben con le sue schiere; il capo dei figli di Ruben è Elisur, figlio di Sedeur. 11 Il suo contingente, secondo il censimento, è di quarantaseimilacinquecento uomini. 12 Accanto a lui si accamperà la tribù di Simeone; il capo dei figli di Simeone è Selumiel, figlio di Surisaddai. 13 Il suo contingente, secondo il censimento, è di cinquantanovemilatrecento uomini. 14 Poi la tribù di Gad; il capo dei figli di Gad è Eliasaf, figlio di Reuel. 15 Il suo contingente, secondo il censimento, è di quarantacinquemilaseicentocinquanta uomini. 16 Il totale del censimento del campo di Ruben, sommando le loro schiere, è dunque centocinquantunmilaquattrocentocinquanta uomini. Si metteranno in marcia in seconda linea.
17 Poi si metterà in marcia la tenda di convegno con il campo dei Leviti in mezzo agli altri campi. Nella marcia seguiranno l’ordine nel quale erano accampati, ciascuno al suo posto, con la sua bandiera.
18 A occidente starà la bandiera del campo di Efraim con il suo contingente; il capo dei figli di Efraim è Elisama, figlio di Ammiud. 19 Il suo contingente, secondo il censimento, è di quarantamilacinquecento uomini. 20 Accanto a lui si accamperà la tribù di Manasse; il capo dei figli di Manasse è Gamaliel, figlio di Pedasur. 21 Il suo contingente, secondo il censimento, è di trentaduemiladuecento uomini. 22 Poi la tribù di Beniamino; il capo dei figli di Beniamino è Abidan, figlio di Ghideoni. 23 Il suo contingente, secondo il censimento, è di trentacinquemilaquattrocento uomini. 24 Il totale del censimento del campo di Efraim, sommando le loro schiere, è dunque centottomilacento uomini. Si metteranno in marcia in terza linea.
25 A settentrione starà il campo di Dan con le sue schiere; il capo dei figli di Dan è Aiezer, figlio di Ammisaddai. 26 Il suo contingente, secondo il censimento, è di sessantaduemilasettecento uomini. 27 Accanto a lui si accamperà la tribù di Ascer; il capo dei figli di Ascer è Paghiel, figlio di Ocran, 28 e il suo contingente, secondo il censimento, è di quarantunmilacinquecento uomini. 29 Poi la tribù di Neftali; il capo dei figli di Neftali è Aira, figlio di Enan, 30 e il suo contingente, secondo il censimento, è di cinquantatremilaquattrocento uomini. 31 Il totale del censimento del campo di Dan è dunque centocinquantasettemilaseicento. Si metteranno in marcia per ultimi, secondo le loro bandiere».
32 Questi furono i figli d’Israele dei quali si fece il censimento secondo la discendenza paterna. Tutti gli uomini dei quali si fece il censimento e che formarono i campi, ciascuno nel suo contingente, furono seicentotremilacinquecentocinquanta. 33 Ma i Leviti, secondo l’ordine che il Signore aveva dato a Mosè, non furono compresi nel censimento con i figli d’Israele. 34 I figli d’Israele si conformarono in tutto agli ordini che il Signore aveva dato a Mosè: così si accampavano secondo le loro bandiere, e così si mettevano in marcia, ciascuno secondo la sua famiglia, secondo la discendenza paterna.

17 (F)“Then the tent of meeting shall set out, with the camp of the Levites in the midst of the camps; as they camp, so shall they set out, each in position, standard by standard.
18 “On the west side shall be the standard of the camp of Ephraim by their companies, the chief of the people of Ephraim being Elishama the son of Ammihud, 19 his company as listed being 40,500. 20 And next to him shall be the tribe of Manasseh, the chief of the people of Manasseh being Gamaliel the son of Pedahzur, 21 his company as listed being 32,200. 22 Then the tribe of Benjamin, the chief of the people of Benjamin being Abidan the son of Gideoni, 23 his company as listed being 35,400. 24 All those listed of the camp of Ephraim, by their companies, were 108,100.
