21 To Gershon belonged the clan of the Libnites and the clan of the Shimeites; these were the clans of the Gershonites.
22 Their enrollment, registering every male of a month or more, was seven thousand five hundred.
23 The clans of the Gershonites camped behind the tabernacle, to the west.
24 The leader of the ancestral house of the Gershonites was Eliasaph, son of Lael.
25 At the tent of meeting their responsibility was the tabernacle: the tent and its covering, the curtain at the entrance of the tent of meeting,
26 the hangings of the court, the curtain at the entrance of the court enclosing both the tabernacle and the altar, and the ropes—whatever pertained to their maintenance.
27 To Kohath belonged the clans of the Amramites, the Izharites, the Hebronites, and the Uzzielites; these were the clans of the Kohathites.
