as the Lord commanded Moses; ( Numbers 1:48Numbers 1:49 ) .
31
The whole number of the camp of Dan is a hundred and fifty-seven thousand six hundred. They shall set out last, standard by standard."

These are the people of Israel as numbered by their fathers' houses; all in the camps who were numbered by their companies were six hundred and three thousand five hundred and fifty.
33
But the Levites were not numbered among the people of Israel, as the LORD commanded Moses.
34
Thus did the people of Israel. According to all that the LORD commanded Moses, so they encamped by their standards, and so they set out, every one in his family, according to his fathers' house.
