This paragraph is about the census of the tribe of Naphtali. It runs parallel to the previous paragraphs in this chapter dealing with the census of other tribes (see the comments on verses 5-7 and 12-14). The clans of Naphtali descended from his sons Jahzeel, Guni, Jezer, and Shillem (see Gen 46.24; 1 Chr 7.13).

These are the families of Naphtali according to their families: As in verse 42 (see the comments there), this sentence is quite repetitive, so Good News Translation and Contemporary English Version omit it.
