Bamidbar 26:54-65 Orthodox Jewish Bible (OJB)

54. To those large of number thou shalt give the larger nachalah, and to few thou shalt give the smaller nachalah: to every one shall his nachalah be given according to those that were numbered of him.

55. Notwithstanding, HaAretz shall be distributed by goral; according to the Shmot Mattot of their Avot they shall inherit.

56. According to the goral shall nachalah thereof be distributed between many and few.

57. And these are they that were numbered of the Levi'im after their Mishpekhot: of Gershon, the Mishpakhat HaGereshuni; of Kehat, the Mishpakhat HaKehati; of Merari, the Mishpakhat HaMerari.

58. These are the Mishpekhot Levi: the Mishpakhat HaLiveni, the Mishpakhat HaChevroni, the Mishpakhat HaMachli, the Mishpakhat HaMushi, the Mishpakhat HaKorechi. And Kehat fathered Amram.

59. And the shem eshet Amram was Yocheved Bat Levi, who was born to Levi in Mitzrayim: and she bore unto Amram Aharon and Moshe, and Miryam their achot.

60. And unto Aharon was born Nadav, and Avihu, Eleazar, and Itamar.

61. And Nadav and Avihu died, when they offered eish zarah before Hashem.

62. And those that were numbered of them were 23,000, kol zachar from a month old and upward: for they were not numbered among the Bnei Yisroel, because there was no nachalah given them among the Bnei Yisroel.

63. These are they that were numbered by Moshe and Eleazar HaKohen, who numbered the Bnei Yisroel in the arevot Mo'av (plains of Moav) by Yarden near Yericho.

64. But among these there was not an ish of them whom Moshe and Aharon HaKohen numbered, when they numbered the Bnei Yisroel in the Midbar Sinai.

65. For Hashem had said of them, They shall surely die in the Midbar. And there was not left an ish from them, except Kalev Ben Yephunneh, and Yehoshua Ben Nun.
