2“Take a census of the whole congregation of Israel by their clans and families, listing every man by name, one by one.
3You and Aaron are to number those who are twenty years of age or older by their divisions— everyone who can serve in Israel’s army.
4And one man from each tribe, the head of each family, must be there with you.
5These are the names of the men who are to assist you: From the tribe of Reuben, Elizur son of Shedeur;
6from Simeon, Shelumiel son of Zurishaddai;
7from Judah, Nahshon son of Amminadab;
8from Issachar, Nethanel son of Zuar;
9from Zebulun, Eliab son of Helon;
10from the sons of Joseph: from Ephraim, Elishama son of Ammihud, and from Manasseh, Gamaliel son of Pedahzur;
11from Benjamin, Abidan son of Gideoni;
12from Dan, Ahiezer son of Ammishaddai;
13from Asher, Pagiel son of Ocran;
14from Gad, Eliasaph son of Deuel;
15and from Naphtali, Ahira son of Enan.”
16These men were appointed from the congregation; they were the leaders of the tribes of their fathers, the heads of the clans of Israel.
