This is the people of the Gershonites, whom Moses and Aaron numbered according to the word of the Lord.
Moses numbered them, just as the Lord had instructed,
And there were found two thousand six hundred thirty.
The sons of Merari also were numbered by the kinships and houses of their fathers,
Moses took a census of them, according to the word of the Lord, each one according to their office and their burdens, just as the Lord had instructed him.
