Numbers 4:44

42 And the Merarites were numbered by their clans and families,

43 everyone from thirty to fifty years old who came to serve in the work at the Tent of Meeting.

The men registered by their clans numbered 3,200.

45 These were counted from the Merarite clans, whom Moses and Aaron numbered at the LORD’s command through Moses.

46 So Moses, Aaron, and the leaders of Israel numbered by their clans and families all the Levites
