Tribe Leader Number
Judah Nahshon son of Amminadab 74,600 5Issachar Nethanel son of Zuar 54,400 7Zebulun Eliab son of Helon 57,400 9
So the total of all the troops on Judah's side of the camp is 186,400. These three tribes are to lead the way whenever the Israelites travel to a new campsite. 10"The divisions of Reuben, Simeon, and Gad are to camp on the south side of the Tabernacle, beneath their family banners.

Tribe Leader Number
Reuben Elizur son of Shedeur 46,500 12Simeon Shelumiel son of Zurishaddai 59,300 14Gad Eliasaph son of Deuel 45,650 16
So the total of all the troops on Reuben's side of the camp is 151,450. These three tribes will be second in line whenever the Israelites travel. 17 "Then the Tabernacle, carried by the Levites, will set out from the middle of the camp. All the tribes are to travel in the same order that they camp, each in position under the appropriate family banner. 18"The divisions of Ephraim, Manasseh, and Benjamin are to camp on the west side of the Tabernacle, beneath their family banners.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And his host, and those that were numbered of them,.... As they had been before; and, supposing these words to be the words of God, there is no necessity of rendering them in the future, as some have observed; though they seem rather to be the words of Moses, who under every tribe repeats the number, which is exactly the same as when taken; and though it was not till twenty days after that they set forward according to their order of encampment, not one of them died, which Aben Ezra observes as a very wonderful thing;

[were] threescore and fourteen thousand and six hundred; the number of the tribe of Judah were 74,600; see Numbers 1:27.
