Numbers 3:22

20 And the sons of Merari by their clans were Mahli and Mushi. These were the clans of the Levites, according to their families.

21 From Gershon came the Libnite clan and the Shimeite clan; these were the Gershonite clans.

The number of all the males a month old or more was 7,500.

23 The Gershonite clans were to camp on the west, behind the tabernacle,

24 and the leader of the families of the Gershonites was Eliasaph son of Lael.

This was said to Israel at a particular time, so it is wise to read it together with the surrounding text. Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
