< Numbers 1 >

1 And the LORD spake unto Moses in the wilderness of Sinai, in the tabernacle of the congregation, on the first [day] of the second month, in the second year after they were come out of the land of Egypt, saying,
در روز اولِ ماه دوم از سال دوم، بعد از بیرون آمدن قوم اسرائیل از مصر، زمانی که قوم در بیابان سینا اردو زده بودند، خداوند در خیمهٔ ملاقات به موسی فرمود:
2 Take ye the sum of all the congregation of the children of Israel, after their families, by the house of their fathers, with the number of [their] names, every male by their polls;
«تو و هارون به کمک رهبران هر قبیله، قوم اسرائیل را برحسب قبیله و خاندانشان سرشماری کنید و تمام مردان بیست ساله و بالاتر را که قادر به جنگیدن هستند بشمارید.» رهبرانی که از هر قبیله برای این کار تعیین شدند عبارت بودند از: الیصور (پسر شدی‌ئور)، از قبیلهٔ رئوبین؛ شلومی‌ئیل (پسر صوریشدای)، از قبیلهٔ شمعون؛ نحشون (پسر عمیناداب)، از قبیلهٔ یهودا؛ نتنائیل (پسر صوغر)، از قبیلهٔ یساکار؛ الی‌آب (پسر حیلون)، از قبیله زبولون؛ الیشمع (پسر عمیهود)، از قبیلهٔ افرایم، پسر یوسف؛ جملی‌ئیل (پسر فدهصور)، از قبیلهٔ منسی، پسر یوسف؛ ابیدان (پسر جدعونی)، از قبیلهٔ بنیامین؛ اخیعزر (پسر عمیشدای)، از قبیلهٔ دان؛ فجعی‌ئیل (پسر عکران)، از قبیلهٔ اشیر؛ الیاساف (پسر دعوئیل)، از قبیلهٔ جاد؛ اخیرع (پسر عینان)، از قبیلهٔ نفتالی.
3 From twenty years old and upward, all that are able to go forth to war in Israel: thou and Aaron shall number them by their armies.
4 And with you there shall be a man of every tribe; every one head of the house of his fathers.
5 And these [are] the names of the men that shall stand with you: of [the tribe of] Reuben; Elizur the son of Shedeur.

اینها رهبرانی بودند که از میان قوم اسرائیل برای این کار انتخاب شدند.
17 And Moses and Aaron took these men which are expressed by [their] names:
در همان روز موسی و هارون همراه رهبران قبایل، تمام مردان بیست ساله و بالاتر را برای اسم‌نویسی فرا خواندند و همان‌طور که خداوند به موسی امر فرموده بود هر مرد برحسب خاندان و خانواده‌اش اسم‌نویسی شد.
18 And they assembled all the congregation together on the first [day] of the second month, and they declared their pedigrees after their families, by the house of their fathers, according to the number of the names, from twenty years old and upward, by their polls.
19 As the LORD commanded Moses, so he numbered them in the wilderness of Sinai.
20 And the children of Reuben, Israel’s eldest son, by their generations, after their families, by the house of their fathers, according to the number of the names, by their polls, every male from twenty years old and upward, all that were able to go forth to war;
نتیجهٔ نهایی سرشماری از این قرار است: از قبیلهٔ رئوبین (پسر نخست‌زاده یعقوب) ۴۶٬۵۰۰ نفر، از قبیلهٔ شمعون ۵۹٬۳۰۰ نفر، از قبیلهٔ جاد ۴۵٬۶۵۰ نفر، از قبیلهٔ یهودا ۷۴٬۶۰۰ نفر، از قبیلهٔ یساکار ۵۴٬۴۰۰ نفر، از قبیلهٔ زبولون ۵۷٬۴۰۰ نفر، از قبیلهٔ افرایم (پسر یوسف) ۴۰٬۵۰۰ نفر، از قبیلهٔ منسی (پسر یوسف) ۳۲٬۲۰۰ نفر، از قبیلهٔ بنیامین ۳۵٬۴۰۰ نفر، از قبیلهٔ دان ۶۲٬۷۰۰ نفر، از قبیلهٔ اشیر ۴۱٬۵۰۰ نفر، از قبیلهٔ نفتالی ۵۳٬۴۰۰ نفر، جمع کل ۶۰۳٬۵۵۰ نفر.

33 Those that were numbered of them, [even] of the tribe of Ephraim, [were] forty thousand and five hundred.
34 Of the children of Manasseh, by their generations, after their families, by the house of their fathers, according to the number of the names, from twenty years old and upward, all that were able to go forth to war;
35 Those that were numbered of them, [even] of the tribe of Manasseh, [were] thirty and two thousand and two hundred.

44 These [are] those that were numbered, which Moses and Aaron numbered, and the princes of Israel, [being] twelve men: each one was for the house of his fathers.
45 So were all those that were numbered of the children of Israel, by the house of their fathers, from twenty years old and upward, all that were able to go forth to war in Israel;
46 Even all they that were numbered were six hundred thousand and three thousand and five hundred and fifty.
47 But the Levites after the tribe of their fathers were not numbered among them.
این سرشماری شامل مردان لاوی نمی‌شد، چون خداوند به موسی فرموده بود: «تمام قبیلهٔ لاوی را از خدمت نظام معاف کن و ایشان را در این سرشماری منظور نکن؛
48 For the LORD had spoken unto Moses, saying,
49 Only thou shalt not number the tribe of Levi, neither take the sum of them among the children of Israel:
50 But thou shalt appoint the Levites over the tabernacle of testimony, and over all the vessels thereof, and over all things that [belong] to it: they shall bear the tabernacle, and all the vessels thereof; and they shall minister unto it, and shall encamp round about the tabernacle.
زیرا وظیفهٔ لاویان انجام امور خیمهٔ عبادت، و جابه‌جایی آن است. ایشان باید در اطراف خیمهٔ عبادت زندگی کنند.
51 And when the tabernacle setteth forward, the Levites shall take it down: and when the tabernacle is to be pitched, the Levites shall set it up: and the stranger that cometh nigh shall be put to death.
هنگام جابه‌جایی خیمهٔ عبادت لاویان باید آن را جمع کنند و دوباره آن را بر پا سازند. هر کس دیگری به آن دست بزند کشته خواهد شد.
52 And the children of Israel shall pitch their tents, every man by his own camp, and every man by his own standard, throughout their hosts.
هر یک از قبایل اسرائیل باید دارای اردوگاه جداگانه‌ای بوده، پرچم خاص خود را داشته باشند.
53 But the Levites shall pitch round about the tabernacle of testimony, that there be no wrath upon the congregation of the children of Israel: and the Levites shall keep the charge of the tabernacle of testimony.
لاویان باید گرداگرد خیمهٔ عبادت خیمه زنند تا مبادا کسی به خیمهٔ عبادت نزدیک شده، سبب نازل شدن غضب خداوند بر جماعت بنی‌اسرائیل شود.»
54 And the children of Israel did according to all that the LORD commanded Moses, so did they.
پس قوم اسرائیل آنچه را که خداوند به موسی امر فرموده بود، انجام دادند.
