15 “Number the children of Levi by their fathers’ houses, by their families; you shall number aevery male from a month old and above.”
16 So Moses numbered them according to the1 word of the Lord, as he was commanded.
17 aThese were the sons of Levi by their names: Gershon, Kohath, and Merari.
18 And these are the names of the sons of aGershon by their families: bLibni and Shimei.
19 And the sons of aKohath by their families: bAmram, Izehar, Hebron, and Uzziel.
20 aAnd the sons of Merari by their families: Mahli and Mushi. These are the families of the Levites by their fathers’ houses.
21 From Gershon came the family of the Libnites and the family of the Shimites; these were the families of the Gershonites.
22 Those who were numbered, according to the number of all the males from a month old and above—of those who were numbered there were seven thousand five hundred.
