1 καὶ ἐγένετο μετὰ τὴν πληγὴν καὶ ἐλάλησεν κύριος πρὸς Μωυσῆν καὶ πρὸς Ελεαζαρ τὸν ἱερέα λέγων 2 λαβὲ τὴν ἀρχὴν πάσης συναγωγῆς υἱῶν Ισραηλ ἀπὸ εἰκοσαετοῦς καὶ ἐπάνω κα{T'} οἴκους πατριῶν αὐτῶν πᾶς ὁ ἐκπορευόμενος παρατάξασθαι ἐν Ισραηλ 3 καὶ ἐλάλησεν Μωυσῆς καὶ Ελεαζαρ ὁ ἱερεὺς ἐν Αραβωθ Μωαβ ἐπὶ τοῦ Ιορδάνου κατὰ Ιεριχω λέγων 4 ἀπὸ εἰκοσαετοῦς καὶ ἐπάνω ὃν τρόπον συνέταξεν κύριος τῷ Μωυσῇ καὶ οἱ υἱοὶ Ισραηλ οἱ ἐξελθόντες ἐξ Αἰγύπτου

1 When this toll of guilty blood had been taken, the Lord said to Moses and to the new high priest, Aaron’s son Eleazar, 2 Make a register, by households and families, of all the Israelites that have reached the age of twenty; that is, all the fighting men. 3 So, in the plains of Moab, across the Jordan opposite Jericho, Moses and the high priest Eleazar summoned them all, 4 the men of twenty years old or more, and passed the Lord’s command on to them. And the register was as follows:

1 Postquam noxiorum sanguis effusus est, dixit Dominus ad Moysen et Eleazarum filium Aaron sacerdotem: 2 Numerate omnem summam filiorum Israël a viginti annis et supra, per domos et cognationes suas, cunctos qui possunt ad bella procedere. 3 Locuti sunt itaque Moyses et Eleazar sacerdos, in campestribus Moab super Jordanem contra Jericho, ad eos qui erant 4 a viginti annis et supra, sicut Dominus imperaverat, quorum iste est numerus.

5 Ρουβην πρωτότοκος Ισραηλ υἱοὶ δὲ Ρουβην Ενωχ καὶ δῆμος τοῦ Ενωχ τῷ Φαλλου δῆμος τοῦ Φαλλουι 6 τῷ Ασρων δῆμος τοῦ Ασρωνι τῷ Χαρμι δῆμος τοῦ Χαρμι 7 οὗτοι δῆμοι Ρουβην καὶ ἐγένετο ἡ ἐπίσκεψις αὐτῶν τρεῖς καὶ τεσσαράκοντα χιλιάδες καὶ ἑπτακόσιοι καὶ τριάκοντα 8 καὶ υἱοὶ Φαλλου Ελιαβ 9 καὶ υἱοὶ Ελιαβ Ναμουηλ καὶ Δαθαν καὶ Αβιρων οὗτοι ἐπίκλητοι τῆς συναγωγῆς οὗτοί εἰσιν οἱ ἐπισυστάντες ἐπὶ Μωυσῆν καὶ Ααρων ἐν τῇ συναγωγῇ Κορε ἐν τῇ ἐπισυστάσει κυρίου 10 καὶ ἀνοίξασα ἡ γῆ τὸ στόμα αὐτῆς κατέπιεν αὐτοὺς καὶ Κορε ἐν τῷ θανάτῳ τῆς συναγωγῆς αὐτοῦ ὅτε κατέφαγεν τὸ πῦρ τοὺς πεντήκοντα καὶ διακοσίους καὶ ἐγενήθησαν ἐν σημείῳ 11 οἱ δὲ υἱοὶ Κορε οὐκ ἀπέθανον

5 The sons of Ruben, Israel’s first-born, were called Henoch, Phallu, 6 Hesron and Charmi. 7 These gave their names to the clans of Ruben, which counted forty-three thousand seven hundred and thirty men. 8 Phallu had a son called Eliab, 9 who was the father of Namuel, Dathan, and Abiron. (It was these two chiefs, Dathan and Abiron, that made head against Moses and Aaron at the time of Core’s rebellion, setting the Lord at defiance. 10 The earth gaped open, and Core was swallowed up; many of the Israelites were killed, two hundred and fifty of them by fire, and it was a great miracle 11 that when Core perished, his sons did not perish with him.)

5 Ruben primogenitus Israël: hujus filius, Henoch, a quo familia Henochitarum: et Phallu, a quo familia Phalluitarum: 6 et Hesron, a quo familia Hesronitarum: et Charmi, a quo familia Charmitarum. 7 Hæ sunt familiæ de stirpe Ruben: quarum numerus inventus est quadraginta tria millia, et septingenti triginta. 8 Filius Phallu, Eliab: 9 hujus filii, Namuel et Dathan et Abiron: isti sunt Dathan et Abiron principes populi, qui surrexerunt contra Moysen et Aaron in seditione Core, quando adversus Dominum rebellaverunt: 10 et aperiens terra os suum devoravit Core, morientibus plurimis, quando combussit ignis ducentos quinquaginta viros. Et factum est grande miraculum, 11 ut, Core pereunte, filii illius non perirent.

42 Dan had no sons but Suham, the founder of the Suhamites; all the clans descended from Dan 43 were Suhamites, counting sixty-four thousand four hundred. 44 The clans of Aser were named after his sons, Jemna, Jessui and Brie. 45 (Brie had two sons, who gave their names to the Heberites and the Melchielites. 46 Aser had also a daughter called Sara.) 47 Aser counted fifty-three thousand four hundred. 48 And the clans of Nephthali were called after his sons, Jesiel, Guni, 49 Jeser and Sellem. 50 Nephthali counted forty-five thousand four hundred. 51 Thus the whole muster-roll of the Israelites contained six hundred and one thousand, seven hundred and thirty names.

42 Filii Dan per cognationes suas: Suham, a quo familia Suhamitarum. Hæ sunt cognationes Dan per familias suas. 43 Omnes fuere Suhamitæ, quorum numerus erat sexaginta quatuor millia quadringenti. 44 Filii Aser per cognationes suas: Jemna, a quo familia Jemnaitarum: Jessui, a quo familia Jessuitarum: Brie, a quo familia Brieitarum. 45 Filii Brie: Heber, a quo familia Heberitarum: et Melchiel, a quo familia Melchielitarum. 46 Nomen autem filiæ Aser fuit Sara. 47 Hæ cognationes filiorum Aser, et numerus eorum quinquaginta tria millia quadringenti. 48 Filii Nephthali per cognationes suas: Jesiel, a quo familia Jesielitarum: Guni, a quo familia Gunitarum: 49 Jeser, a quo familia Jeseritarum: Sellem, a quo familia Sellemitarum. 50 Hæ sunt cognationes filiorum Nephthali per familias suas: quorum numerus quadraginta quinque millia quadringenti. 51 Ista est summa filiorum Israël, qui recensiti sunt, sexcenta millia, et mille septingenti triginta.

52 καὶ ἐλάλησεν κύριος πρὸς Μωυσῆν λέγων 53 τούτοις μερισθήσεται ἡ γῆ κληρονομεῖν ἐξ ἀριθμοῦ ὀνομάτων 54 τοῖς πλείοσιν πλεονάσεις τὴν κληρονομίαν καὶ τοῖς ἐλάττοσιν ἐλαττώσεις τὴν κληρονομίαν αὐτῶν ἑκάστῳ καθὼς ἐπεσκέπησαν δοθήσεται ἡ κληρονομία αὐτῶν 55 διὰ κλήρων μερισθήσεται ἡ γῆ τοῖς ὀνόμασιν κατὰ φυλὰς πατριῶν αὐτῶν κληρονομήσουσιν 56 ἐκ τοῦ κλήρου μεριεῖς τὴν κληρονομίαν αὐτῶν ἀνὰ μέσον πολλῶν καὶ ὀλίγων

52 And the Lord told Moses, 53 The land must be divided up under these names, one portion for each.[1] 54 A large portion where they are many, a small portion where they are few; their inheritance is to be assigned to them according to this present register; 55 but always lots must be used to decide between tribe and tribe, between clan and clan. 56 Great or small, they must be content with what the lot gives them.

52 Locutusque est Dominus ad Moysen, dicens: 53 Istis dividetur terra juxta numerum vocabulorum in possessiones suas. 54 Pluribus majorem partem dabis, et paucioribus minorem: singulis, sicut nunc recensiti sunt, tradetur possessio: 55 ita dumtaxat ut sors terram tribubus dividat et familiis. 56 Quidquid sorte contigerit, hoc vel plures accipiant, vel pauciores.

57 καὶ υἱοὶ Λευι κατὰ δήμους αὐτῶν τῷ Γεδσων δῆμος ὁ Γεδσωνι τῷ Κααθ δῆμος ὁ Κααθι τῷ Μεραρι δῆμος ὁ Μεραρι 58 οὗτοι δῆμοι υἱῶν Λευι δῆμος ὁ Λοβενι δῆμος ὁ Χεβρωνι δῆμος ὁ Κορε καὶ δῆμος ὁ Μουσι καὶ Κααθ ἐγέννησεν τὸν Αμραμ 59 καὶ τὸ ὄνομα τῆς γυναικὸς αὐτοῦ Ιωχαβεδ θυγάτηρ Λευι ἣ ἔτεκεν τούτους τῷ Λευι ἐν Αἰγύπτῳ καὶ ἔτεκεν τῷ Αμραμ τὸν Ααρων καὶ Μωυσῆν καὶ Μαριαμ τὴν ἀδελφὴν αὐτῶν 60 καὶ ἐγεννήθησαν τῷ Ααρων ὅ τε Ναδαβ καὶ Αβιουδ καὶ Ελεαζαρ καὶ Ιθαμαρ 61 καὶ ἀπέθανεν Ναδαβ καὶ Αβιουδ ἐν τῷ προσφέρειν αὐτοὺς πῦρ ἀλλότριον ἔναντι κυρίου ἐν τῇ ἐρήμῳ Σινα 62 καὶ ἐγενήθησαν ἐξ ἐπισκέψεως αὐτῶν τρεῖς καὶ εἴκοσι χιλιάδες πᾶν ἀρσενικὸν ἀπὸ μηνιαίου καὶ ἐπάνω οὐ γὰρ συνεπεσκέπησαν ἐν μέσῳ υἱῶν Ισραηλ ὅτι οὐ δίδοται αὐτοῖς κλῆρος ἐν μέσῳ υἱῶν Ισραηλ

57 The Levites, too, were divided into clans, named after Levi’s sons, Gerson, Caath and Merari. 58 (These are sub-divided into the Levite clans named after Lobni, Hebroni, Moholi, Musi and Core.[2]) Caath was father of Amram, 59 who married Jochabed, a daughter of Levi, born to him in Egypt; the children she bore to Amram were Aaron and Moses and their sister Mary. 60 Aaron’s sons were called Nadab, Abiu, Eleazar and Ithamar; 61 but of these, Nadab and Abiu were punished with death for offering the Lord unhallowed fire. 62 Of the Levites altogether, twenty-three thousand were registered; males all of them, but counting all those who were more than a month old. They were not reckoned in the muster-roll of Israel, nor did they receive lands like the rest.

57 Hic quoque est numerus filiorum Levi per familias suas: Gerson, a quo familia Gersonitarum: Caath, a quo familia Caathitarum: Merari, a quo familia Meraritarum. 58 Hæ sunt familiæ Levi: familia Lobni, familia Hebroni, familia Moholi, familia Musi, familia Core. At vero Caath genuit Amram: 59 qui habuit uxorem Jochabed filiam Levi, quæ nata est ei in Ægypto. Hæc genuit Amram viro suo filios, Aaron, et Moysen, et Mariam sororem eorum. 60 De Aaron orti sunt Nadab et Abiu, et Eleazar et Ithamar: 61 quorum Nadab et Abiu mortui sunt, cum obtulissent ignem alienum coram Domino. 62 Fueruntque omnes qui numerati sunt, viginti tria millia generis masculini ab uno mense et supra: quia non sunt recensiti inter filios Israël, nec eis cum ceteris data possessio est.

63 καὶ αὕτη ἡ ἐπίσκεψις Μωυσῆ καὶ Ελεαζαρ τοῦ ἱερέως οἳ ἐπεσκέψαντο τοὺς υἱοὺς Ισραηλ ἐν Αραβωθ Μωαβ ἐπὶ τοῦ Ιορδάνου κατὰ Ιεριχω 64 καὶ ἐν τούτοις οὐκ ἦν ἄνθρωπος τῶν ἐπεσκεμμένων ὑπὸ Μωυσῆ καὶ Ααρων οὓς ἐπεσκέψαντο τοὺς υἱοὺς Ισραηλ ἐν τῇ ἐρήμῳ Σινα 65 ὅτι εἶπεν κύριος αὐτοῖς θανάτῳ ἀποθανοῦνται ἐν τῇ ἐρήμῳ καὶ οὐ κατελείφθη ἐξ αὐτῶν οὐδὲ εἷς πλὴν Χαλεβ υἱὸς Ιεφοννη καὶ Ἰησοῦς ὁ τοῦ Ναυη

63 Such was the register of the Israelites made by Moses and the high priest Eleazar, when they reached the plains of Moab, by the Jordan opposite Jericho. 64 Of these, not one had been among those registered by Moses and Aaron in the desert of Sinai, 65 and afterwards doomed by the Lord to die in the wilderness; none of those now remained, except Caleb, son of Jephone, and Josue, son of Nun.

63 Hic est numerus filiorum Israël, qui descripti sunt a Moyse et Eleazaro sacerdote, in campestribus Moab supra Jordanem contra Jericho: 64 inter quos, nullus fuit eorum qui ante numerati sunt a Moyse et Aaron in deserto Sinai: 65 prædixerat enim Dominus quod omnes morerentur in solitudine. Nullusque remansit ex eis, nisi Caleb filius Jephone, et Josue filius Nun.

[1] ‘The land must be divided up under these names’; it is not clear whether the names of tribes or of clans are meant. Nor is it clear how the two principles of apportionment by numbers and apportionment by lot were reconciled; presumably, lots were drawn between units whose numbers were approximately equal (as Benjamin and Nepthali).

[2] The words ‘subdivided into’ are not found in the original but may be inferred from Ex. 6.16 sqq.
