14 (v) Adonai said to Moshe in the Sinai Desert, 15 "Take a census of the tribe of Levi by clans and families. Count every male a month old or over." 16 Moshe counted them in the manner Adonai had said, as he had been ordered. 17 The names of the sons of Levi were Gershon, K'hat and M'rari. 18 The names of the sons of Gershon were Livni and Shim‘i; they fathered their respective clans; 19 likewise the sons of K'hat — ‘Amram,Yitz'har, Hevron and ‘Uzi'el — 20 and the sons of M'rari — Machli and Mushi. These fathered the clans of the L'vi'im. 21 Gershon fathered the clans of Livni and Shim‘i; these were the Gershon clans. 22 Of them, 7,500 males a month old and over were counted. 23 The Gershon clans were to camp behind the tabernacle, toward the west.
