Numbers 3:16-18

The Message

^14-16 God spoke to Moses in the Wilderness of Sinai: “Count the Levites by their ancestral families and clans. Count every male a month old and older.” Moses counted them just as he was instructed by the mouth of God.

¹⁷ These are the names of the sons of Levi: Gershon, Kohath, and Merari.

¹⁸ These are the names of the Gershonite clans: Libni and Shimei.
