Numbers 2:33 In-Context

31 The total number of men in the camp of Dan is 157,600; they shall set out last, under their standards.”
32 These are the Israelites, numbered according to their families. The total of those counted in the camps, by their divisions, was 603,550.
33 But the Levites were not counted among the other Israelites, as the LORD had commanded Moses.
34 So the Israelites did everything the LORD commanded Moses; they camped under their standards in this way and set out in the same way, each man with his clan and his family.
