Numbers 2:1-34 CEB
[1] The LORD spoke to Moses and Aaron: [2] The Israelites will camp each under the banner with the symbol of their household. They will camp around the meeting tent some distance from it. [3] On the east side toward the sunrise will be the banner of Judah’s camp with its military units. The chief of the people of Judah is Nahshon, Amminadab’s son.

[17] The meeting tent and the Levites’ camp will march in the center of the camps. They will march in the same order as they camp: each in position under his banner. [18] On the west will be the banner of Ephraim’s camp with its military units. The chief of the people of Ephraim is Elishama, Ammihud’s son.

[23] His military unit and those enlisted in it are 35,400. [24] All those enlisted in Ephraim’s camp with their military units are 108,100. They will march third. [25] On the north will be the banner of Dan’s camp with its military units. The chief of the people of Dan is Ahiezer, Ammishaddai’s son. [26] His military unit and those enlisted in it are 62,700.

[31] All those enlisted in the camp of Dan are 157,600. They will march last under their banners. [32] These are the enlisted Israelites by their households. The total enlisted in the camps with their military units is 603,550. [33] But the Levites weren’t enlisted among the Israelites, as the LORD had commanded Moses. [34] The Israelites did everything exactly as the LORD had commanded Moses: they camped under their banners and they marched by their clans and by their households.
