各部族の配置
1-2主はさらに、モーセとアロンに命じました。「野営地の真ん中に幕屋を作り、距離をおいて各部族はその回りに、部族ごとに旗を立てて宿営しなさい。」
3-31こうして、各部族の配置は次のように決まりました。
ユダ族アミナダブの子ナフション――幕屋の東側に七万四、六〇〇人。イッサカル族ツアルの子ネタヌエル――ユダの隣に五万四、四〇〇人。ゼブルン族ヘロンの子エリアブ――イッサカルの隣に五万七、四〇〇人。ユダの宿営に属する三部族の合計は一八万六、四〇〇人。このグループは、人々が別の所へ移動するとき、先頭に進みます。
ルベン族シェデウルの子エリツル――幕屋の南側に四万六、五〇〇人。シメオン族ツリシャダイの子シェルミエル――ルベンの隣に五万九、三〇〇人。ガド族デウエルの子エルヤサフ――シメオンの隣に四万五、六五〇人。ルベンの宿営に属する三部族の合計は一五万一、四五〇人。このグループは、人々が別の所に移動するとき、二番目に進みます。
次に続くのは、野営地の中央を占める幕屋とレビ族です。移動するときも野営地にいるときと同じように、各部族はそれぞれの旗のもとに、いっしょにいなければなりません。
エフライム族アミフデの子エリシャマ――幕屋の西側に四万五〇〇人。マナセ族ペダツルの子ガムリエル――エフライムの隣に三万二、二〇〇人。ベニヤミン族ギデオニの子アビダン――マナセの隣に三万五、四〇〇人。エフライムの宿営に属する人数は一〇万八、一〇〇人で、彼らは三番目に進みます。
ダン族アミシャダイの子アヒエゼル――幕屋の北側に六万二、七〇〇人。アシェル族オクランの子パグイエル――ダンの隣に四万一、五〇〇人。ナフタリ族エナンの子アヒラ――アシェルの隣に五万三、四〇〇人。ダンの宿営に属する人数は、一五万七、六〇〇人です。彼らは別の所へ移動するとき、最後に進みます。
32イスラエル軍の総勢は六〇万三、五五〇人でした。 33この中に、主の命令で兵役が免除されたレビ族は含まれていません。 34こうして人々は、主がモーセに命じたとおりの場所に、部族ごとに旗を立て、テントを張り、進みました。
The Tribes Camp Around the Tent of Meeting
1The Lord spoke to Moses and Aaron. He said, 2“The Israelites must camp around the tent of meeting. But they must not camp too close to it. All of them must camp under their flags and under the banners of their families.”
3The groups of the camp of Judah must be on the east side. They must set up camp toward the sunrise. They must camp under their flag. The leader of the tribe of Judah is Nahshon, the son of Amminadab. 4There are 74,600 men in Nahshon’s group.
5The tribe of Issachar will camp next to them. The leader of the tribe of Issachar is Nethanel, the son of Zuar. 6There are 54,400 men in Nethanel’s group.
7The tribe of Zebulun will be next. The leader of the tribe of Zebulun is Eliab, the son of Helon. 8There are 57,400 men in Eliab’s group.
9So a total of 186,400 men will be set apart for the camp of Judah. They will be arranged group by group. They will start out first.
10The groups of the camp of Reuben will be on the south side. They will be under their flag. The leader of the tribe of Reuben is Elizur, the son of Shedeur. 11There are 46,500 men in Elizur’s group.
12The tribe of Simeon will camp next to them. The leader of the tribe of Simeon is Shelumiel, the son of Zurishaddai. 13There are 59,300 men in Shelumiel’s group.
14The tribe of Gad will be next. The leader of the tribe of Gad is Eliasaph, the son of Deuel. 15There are 45,650 men in Eliasaph’s group.
16So a total of 151,450 men will be set apart for the camp of Reuben. They will be arranged group by group. They will start out second.
17Then the camp of the Levites will start out. The tent of meeting will go with them. They will march in the middle of the other camps. They will start out in the same order as they do when they set up camp. Each one will be in their own place under their flag.
18The groups of the camp of Ephraim will be on the west side. They will be under their flag. The leader of the tribe of Ephraim is Elishama, the son of Ammihud. 19There are 40,500 men in Elishama’s group.
20The tribe of Manasseh will be next to them. The leader of the tribe of Manasseh is Gamaliel, the son of Pedahzur. 21There are 32,200 men in Gamaliel’s group.
22The tribe of Benjamin will be next. The leader of the tribe of Benjamin is Abidan, the son of Gideoni. 23There are 35,400 men in Abidan’s group.
24So a total of 108,100 men will be set apart for the camp of Ephraim. They will be arranged group by group. They will start out third.
25The groups of the camp of Dan will be on the north side. They will be under their flag. The leader of the tribe of Dan is Ahiezer, the son of Ammishaddai. 26There are 62,700 men in Ahiezer’s group.
27The tribe of Asher will camp next to them. The leader of the tribe of Asher is Pagiel, the son of Okran. 28There are 41,500 men in Pagiel’s group.
29The tribe of Naphtali will be next. The leader of the tribe of Naphtali is Ahira, the son of Enan. 30There are 53,400 men in Ahira’s group.
31So a total of 157,600 men will be set apart for the camp of Dan. They will start out last. They will march under their flags.
32Those are the men of Israel. They were counted according to their families. The total number of all the men in the camps is 603,550, group by group. 33But the Levites weren’t counted along with the other men of Israel. That’s what the Lord had commanded Moses.
34So the Israelites did everything the Lord had commanded Moses. That’s the way they set up camp under their flags. And that’s the way they started out. Each of them marched out with their own tribe and family.
