14And Yahweh spoke to Moses in the wilderness of Sinai, saying,

15Count the sons of Levi by their fathers' houses, by their clans: every male from a month old and upward you shall count.

16So Moses counted them at the command of Yahweh, just as he had been commanded.

17These were the sons of Levi by their names: Gershon, Kohath, and Merari.

18And these are the names of the sons of Gershon by their clans: Libni and Shimei.

19And the sons of Kohath, by their clans: Amram, Izhar, Hebron, and Uzziel.

20The sons of Merari, by their clans: Mahli and Mushi. These are the clans of the Levites, by their fathers’ houses.
