Numbers 26:42-65 and John 20:11-18 (New Living Translation)

NUMBERS 26:42-65
THE SECOND CENSUS (Continued)

Tribe of Dan
42  These were the clans descended from the sons of Dan:  The Shuhamite clan, named after their ancestor Shuham.
43  These were the Shuhamite clans of Dan. Their registered troops numbered 64,400.
TRIBE OF ASHER
44  These were the clans descended from the sons of Asher:  The Imnite clan, named after their ancestor Imnah.  The Ishvite clan, named after their ancestor Ishvi.  The Beriite clan, named after their ancestor Beriah.
45  These were the subclans descended from the Beriites:  The Heberites, named after their ancestor Heber.
The Malkielites, named after their ancestor Malkiel.
46  Asher also had a daughter named Serah.
47  These were the clans of Asher. Their registered troops numbered 53,400.
TRIBE OF NAPHTALI
48  These were the clans descended from the sons of Naphtali:  The Jahzeelite clan, named after their ancestor Jahzeel. The Gunite clan, named after their ancestor Guni.
49  The Jezerite clan, named after their ancestor Jezer.  The Shillemite clan, named after their ancestor Shillem.
50  These were the clans of Naphtali. Their registered troops numbered 45,400.
RESULTS OF THE REGISTRATION
51  In summary, the registered troops of all Israel numbered 601,730.
52  Then the Lord said to Moses, 
53  “Divide the land among the tribes, and distribute the grants of land in proportion to the tribes’ populations, as indicated by the number of names on the list. 
54  Give the larger tribes more land and the smaller tribes less land, each group receiving a grant in proportion to the size of its population. 
55  But you must assign the land by lot, and give land to each ancestral tribe according to the number of names on the list. 
56  Each grant of land must be assigned by lot among the larger and smaller tribal groups.”
TRIBE OF LEVI
57  This is the record of the Levites who were counted according to their clans:  The Gershonite clan, named after their ancestor Gershon.  The Kohathite clan, named after their ancestor Kohath.  The Merarite clan, named after their ancestor Merari.
58  The Libnites, the Hebronites, the Mahlites, the Mushites, and the Korahites were all subclans of the Levites.  Now Kohath was the ancestor of Amram, 
59  and Amram’s wife was named Jochebed. She also was a descendant of Levi, born among the Levites in the land of Egypt. Amram and Jochebed became the parents of Aaron, Moses, and their sister, Miriam.
60  To Aaron were born Nadab, Abihu, Eleazar, and Ithamar. 
61  But Nadab and Abihu died when they burned before the Lord the wrong kind of fire, different than he had commanded.
62  The men from the Levite clans who were one month old or older numbered 23,000. But the Levites were not included in the registration of the rest of the people of Israel because they were not given an allotment of land when it was divided among the Israelites.
63  So these are the results of the registration of the people of Israel as conducted by Moses and Eleazar the priest on the plains of Moab beside the Jordan River, across from Jericho. 
64  Not one person on this list had been among those listed in the previous registration taken by Moses and Aaron in the wilderness of Sinai. 
65  For the Lord had said of them, “They will all die in the wilderness.” Not one of them survived except Caleb son of Jephunneh and Joshua son of Nun.

JOHN 20:11-18
JESUS APPEARS TO MARY MAGDALENE
11  Mary was standing outside the tomb crying, and as she wept, she stooped and looked in. 
12  She saw two white-robed angels, one sitting at the head and the other at the foot of the place where the body of Jesus had been lying. 
13  “Dear woman, why are you crying?” the angels asked her.  “Because they have taken away my Lord,” she replied, “and I don’t know where they have put him.”
14  She turned to leave and saw someone standing there. It was Jesus, but she didn’t recognize him. 
15  "Dear woman, why are you crying?” Jesus asked her. “Who are you looking for?”  She thought he was the gardener. “Sir,” she said, “if you have taken him away, tell me where you have put him, and I will go and get him.”
16  “Mary!” Jesus said.  She turned to him and cried out, “Rabboni!” (which is Hebrew for “Teacher”).
17  “Don’t cling to me,” Jesus said, “for I haven’t yet ascended to the Father. But go find my brothers and tell them, ‘I am ascending to my Father and your Father, to my God and your God.’”
18  Mary Magdalene found the disciples and told them, “I have seen the Lord!” Then she gave them his message.
