Numbers 1

1 On the first day of the second month of the second year after the Israelites had come out of the land of Egypt, the LORD spoke to Moses in the Tent of Meeting in the Wilderness of Sinai. He said:

1 وَكَلَّمَ ٱلرَّبُّ مُوسَى فِي بَرِّيَّةِ سِينَاءَ، فِي خَيْمَةِ ٱلِٱجْتِمَاعِ، فِي أَوَّلِ ٱلشَّهْرِ ٱلثَّانِي فِي ٱلسَّنَةِ ٱلثَّانِيَةِ لِخُرُوجِهِمْ مِنْ أَرْضِ مِصْرَ قَائِلًا:

2 “Take a census of the whole congregation of Israel by their clans and families, listing every man by name, one by one.

2 «أَحْصُوا كُلَّ جَمَاعَةِ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ بِعَشَائِرِهِمْ وَبُيُوتِ آبَائِهِمْ، بِعَدَدِ ٱلْأَسْمَاءِ، كُلَّ ذَكَرٍ بِرَأْسِهِ،

3 You 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.

3 مِنِ ٱبْنِ عِشْرِينَ سَنَةً فَصَاعِدًا، كُلَّ خَارِجٍ لِلْحَرْبِ فِي إِسْرَائِيلَ. تَحْسُبُهُمْ أَنْتَ وَهَارُونُ حَسَبَ أَجْنَادِهِمْ.

4 And one man from each tribe, the head of each family, must be there with you.

4 وَيَكُونُ مَعَكُمَا رَجُلٌ لِكُلِّ سِبْطٍ، رَجُلٌ هُوَ رَأْسٌ لِبَيْتِ آبَائِهِ.

5 These are the names of the men who are to assist you: From the tribe of Reuben, Elizur son of Shedeur;

5 وَهَذِهِ أَسْمَاءُ ٱلرِّجَالِ ٱلَّذِينَ يَقِفُونَ مَعَكُمَا: لِرَأُوبَيْنَ أَلِيصُورُ بْنُ شَدَيْئُورَ.

6 from Simeon, Shelumiel son of Zurishaddai;

6 لِشِمْعُونَ شَلُومِيئِيلُ بْنُ صُورِيشَدَّاي.

7 from Judah, Nahshon son of Amminadab;

7 لِيَهُوذَا نَحْشُونُ بْنُ عَمِّينَادَابَ.

8 from Issachar, Nethanel son of Zuar;

8 لِيَسَّاكَرَ نَثَنَائِيلُ بْنُ صُوغَرَ.

9 from Zebulun, Eliab son of Helon;

9 لِزَبُولُونَ أَلِيآبُ بْنُ حِيلُونَ.

10 from the sons of Joseph: from Ephraim, Elishama son of Ammihud, and from Manasseh, Gamaliel son of Pedahzur;

10 لِٱبْنَيْ يُوسُفَ: لِأَفْرَايِمَ أَلِيشَمَعُ بْنُ عَمِّيهُودَ، وَلِمَنَسَّى جَمْلِيئِيلُ بْنُ فَدَهْصُورَ.

11 from Benjamin, Abidan son of Gideoni;

11 لِبَنْيَامِينَ أَبِيدَنُ بْنُ جِدْعُونِي.

12 from Dan, Ahiezer son of Ammishaddai;

12 لِدَانَ أَخِيعَزَرُ بْنُ عَمِّيشَدَّاي.

13 from Asher, Pagiel son of Ocran;

13 لِأَشِيرَ فَجْعِيئِيلُ بْنُ عُكْرَنَ.

14 from Gad, Eliasaph son of Deuel;

14 لِجَادَ أَلِيَاسَافُ بْنُ دَعُوئِيلَ.

15 and from Naphtali, Ahira son of Enan.”

15 لِنَفْتَالِي أَخِيرَعُ بْنُ عِينَنَ».

16 These men were appointed from the congregation; they were the leaders of the tribes of their fathers, the heads of the clans of Israel.

16 هَؤُلَاءِ هُمْ مَشَاهِيرُ ٱلْجَمَاعَةِ، رُؤَسَاءُ أَسْبَاطِ آبَائِهِمْ. رُؤُوسُ أُلُوفِ إِسْرَائِيلَ.

17 So Moses and Aaron took these men who had been designated by name,

17 فَأَخَذَ مُوسَى وَهَارُونُ هَؤُلَاءِ ٱلرِّجَالَ ٱلَّذِينَ تَعَيَّنُوا بِأَسْمَائِهِمْ،

18 and on the first day of the second month they assembled the whole congregation and recorded their ancestry by clans and families, counting one by one the names of those twenty years of age or older,

18 وَجَمَعَا كُلَّ ٱلْجَمَاعَةِ فِي أَوَّلِ ٱلشَّهْرِ ٱلثَّانِي، فَٱنْتَسَبُوا إِلَى عَشَائِرِهِمْ وَبُيُوتِ آبَائِهِمْ بِعَدَدِ ٱلْأَسْمَاءِ، مِنِ ٱبْنِ عِشْرِينَ سَنَةً فَصَاعِدًا بِرُؤُوسِهِمْ،

19 just as the LORD had commanded Moses. So Moses numbered them in the Wilderness of Sinai:

19 كَمَا أَمَرَ ٱلرَّبُّ مُوسَى. فَعَدَّهُمْ فِي بَرِّيَّةِ سِينَاءَ.

20 From the sons of Reuben, the firstborn of Israel, according to the records of their clans and families, counting one by one the names of every male twenty years of age or older who could serve in the army,

44 These were the men numbered by Moses and Aaron, with the assistance of the twelve leaders of Israel, each one representing his family.

44 هَؤُلَاءِ هُمُ ٱلْمَعْدُودُونَ ٱلَّذِينَ عَدَّهُمْ مُوسَى وَهَارُونُ وَرُؤَسَاءُ إِسْرَائِيلَ، ٱثْنَا عَشَرَ رَجُلًا، رَجُلٌ وَاحِدٌ لِبَيْتِ آبَائِهِ.

45 So all the Israelites twenty years of age or older who could serve in Israel’s army were counted according to their families.

45 فَكَانَ جَمِيعُ ٱلْمَعْدُودِينَ مِنْ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ حَسَبَ بُيُوتِ آبَائِهِمْ مِنِ ٱبْنِ عِشْرِينَ سَنَةً فَصَاعِدًا، كُلُّ خَارِجٍ لِلْحَرْبِ فِي إِسْرَائِيلَ.

46 And all those counted totaled 603,550.

46 كَانَ جَمِيعُ ٱلْمَعْدُودِينَ سِتَّ مِئَةِ أَلْفٍ وَثَلَاثَةَ آلَافٍ وَخَمْسَ مِئَةٍ وَخَمْسِينَ.

47 The Levites, however, were not numbered along with them by the tribe of their fathers.

47 وَأَمَّا ٱللَّاوِيُّونَ حَسَبَ سِبْطِ آبَائِهِمْ فَلَمْ يُعَدُّوا بَيْنَهُمْ،

48 For the LORD had said to Moses:

48 إِذْ كَلَّمَ ٱلرَّبُّ مُوسَى قَائِلًا:

49 “Do not number the tribe of Levi in the census with the other Israelites.

49 «أَمَّا سِبْطُ لَاوِي فَلَا تَحْسُبُهُ وَلَا تَعُدَّهُ بَيْنَ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ.

50 Instead, you are to appoint the Levites over the tabernacle of the Testimony, all its furnishings, and everything in it. They shall carry the tabernacle and all its articles, care for it, and camp around it.

50 بَلْ وَكِّلِ ٱللَّاوِيِّينَ عَلَى مَسْكَنِ ٱلشَّهَادَةِ وَعَلَى جَمِيعِ أَمْتِعَتِهِ وَعَلَى كُلِّ مَا لَهُ. هُمْ يَحْمِلُونَ ٱلْمَسْكَنَ وَكُلَّ أَمْتِعَتِهِ، وَهُمْ يَخْدِمُونَهُ، وَحَوْلَ ٱلْمَسْكَنِ يَنْزِلُونَ.

51 Whenever the tabernacle is to move, the Levites are to take it down, and whenever it is to be pitched, the Levites are to set it up. Any outsider who goes near it must be put to death.

51 فَعِنْدَ ٱرْتِحَالِ ٱلْمَسْكَنِ يُنَزِّلُهُ ٱللَّاوِيُّونَ وَعِنْدَ نُزُولِ ٱلْمَسْكَنِ يُقِيمُهُ ٱللَّاوِيُّونَ. وَٱلْأَجْنَبِيُّ ٱلَّذِي يَقْتَرِبُ يُقْتَلُ.

52 The Israelites are to camp by their divisions, each man in his own camp and under his own standard.

52 وَيَنْزِلُ بَنُو إِسْرَائِيلَ كُلٌّ فِي مَحَلَّتِهِ وَكُلٌّ عِنْدَ رَايَتِهِ بِأَجْنَادِهِمْ.

53 But the Levites are to camp around the tabernacle of the Testimony and watch over it, so that no wrath will fall on the congregation of Israel. So the Levites are responsible for the tabernacle of the Testimony.”

53 وَأَمَّا ٱللَّاوِيُّونَ فَيَنْزِلُونَ حَوْلَ مَسْكَنِ ٱلشَّهَادَةِ لِكَيْ لَا يَكُونَ سَخَطٌ عَلَى جَمَاعَةِ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ، فَيَحْفَظُ ٱللَّاوِيُّونَ شَعَائِرَ مَسْكَنِ ٱلشَّهَادَةِ».

54 Thus the Israelites did everything just as the LORD had commanded Moses.

54 فَفَعَلَ بَنُو إِسْرَائِيلَ حَسَبَ كُلِّ مَا أَمَرَ ٱلرَّبُّ مُوسَى كَذَلِكَ فَعَلُوا.
