Sorting table help
I am trying to sort this table by ID but I can't seem to figure it out, is there anyone out there that can assist me? Thank you in advance.

Here is my code:
Lua Code:
  1. function ess(x)
  2.     if not ITEMSCRAPESTATS  then
  3.         ITEMSCRAPESTATS = {}
  4.     end
  5.    ES:SetHyperlink("item:"..x..":0:0:0:0:0:0:0")
  6.    for i=1, ES:NumLines() do
  7.        local text = _G["ESTooltipTextLeft"..i]:GetText()
  8.        if _G["ESTooltipTextLeft2"]:GetText() then
  9.        ITEMSCRAPESTATS[x] = ITEMSCRAPESTATS[x] or {}
  10.        table.insert(ITEMSCRAPESTATS[x], _G["ESTooltipTextLeft"..i]:GetText())
  11.  
  12.        else
  13.        ITEMSCRAPESTATS[x] = ITEMSCRAPESTATS[x] or {}
  14.        table.insert(ITEMSCRAPESTATS[x], "No Stats for Item Number")
  15.        end
  16.    end
  17.     if _G["ESTooltipTextLeft2"]:GetText() then
  18.       print("Scraping Stats for Item Number: "..x)
  19.       else
  20.       print("No Stats for Item Number: "..x)
  21.       end
  22. end

This is what ends up in the table:

Lua Code:
  1. ITEMSCRAPESTATS = {
  2.     [60002] = {
  3.         "Goldroar Signet", -- [1]
  4.         "Binds when picked up", -- [2]
  5.         "Unique-Equipped", -- [3]
  6.         "Finger", -- [4]
  7.         "+1 Strength", -- [5]
  8.         "Item Level 15", -- [6]
  9.         " ", -- [7]
  10.     },
  11.     [60004] = {
  12.         "Divining Rod", -- [1]
  13.         "Binds when picked up", -- [2]
  14.         "Ranged", -- [3]
  15.         "9 - 17 Fire Damage", -- [4]
  16.         "(8.7 damage per second)", -- [5]
  17.         "Requires Level 6", -- [6]
  18.         "Item Level 12", -- [7]
  19.         " ", -- [8]
  20.     },
  21.     [60001] = {
  22.         "Goldroar Band", -- [1]
  23.         "Binds when picked up", -- [2]
  24.         "Unique-Equipped", -- [3]
  25.         "Finger", -- [4]
  26.         "+1 Intellect", -- [5]
  27.         "Item Level 15", -- [6]
  28.         " ", -- [7]
  29.     },
  30.     [60003] = {
  31.         "Waterlogged Dirge", -- [1]
  32.         "Binds when picked up", -- [2]
  33.         "Two-Hand", -- [3]
  34.         "17 - 26 Damage", -- [4]
  35.         "(7.2 damage per second)", -- [5]
  36.         "+1 Strength", -- [6]
  37.         "+1 Stamina", -- [7]
  38.         "Requires Level 6", -- [8]
  39.         "Item Level 10", -- [9]
  40.         " ", -- [10]
  41.     },
  42.     [60000] = {
  43.         "Resilient Poncho", -- [1]
  44.         "Binds when picked up", -- [2]
  45.         "Back", -- [3]
  46.         "20 Armor", -- [4]
  47.         "+1 Spirit", -- [5]
  48.         "Requires Level 6", -- [6]
  49.         "Item Level 26", -- [7]
  50.         " ", -- [8]
  51.     },
  52. }

I would like it to sort like this:

Lua Code:
  1. ITEMSCRAPESTATS = {
  2.     [60000] = {
  3.         "Resilient Poncho", -- [1]
  4.         "Binds when picked up", -- [2]
  5.         "Back", -- [3]
  6.         "20 Armor", -- [4]
  7.         "+1 Spirit", -- [5]
  8.         "Requires Level 6", -- [6]
  9.         "Item Level 26", -- [7]
  10.         " ", -- [8]
  11.     },
  12.     [60001] = {
  13.         "Goldroar Band", -- [1]
  14.         "Binds when picked up", -- [2]
  15.         "Unique-Equipped", -- [3]
  16.         "Finger", -- [4]
  17.         "+1 Intellect", -- [5]
  18.         "Item Level 15", -- [6]
  19.         " ", -- [7]
  20.     },  
  21.     [60002] = {
  22.         "Goldroar Signet", -- [1]
  23.         "Binds when picked up", -- [2]
  24.         "Unique-Equipped", -- [3]
  25.         "Finger", -- [4]
  26.         "+1 Strength", -- [5]
  27.         "Item Level 15", -- [6]
  28.         " ", -- [7]
  29.     },
  30.     [60003] = {
  31.         "Waterlogged Dirge", -- [1]
  32.         "Binds when picked up", -- [2]
  33.         "Two-Hand", -- [3]
  34.         "17 - 26 Damage", -- [4]
  35.         "(7.2 damage per second)", -- [5]
  36.         "+1 Strength", -- [6]
  37.         "+1 Stamina", -- [7]
  38.         "Requires Level 6", -- [8]
  39.         "Item Level 10", -- [9]
  40.         " ", -- [10]
  41.     },  
  42.     [60004] = {
  43.         "Divining Rod", -- [1]
  44.         "Binds when picked up", -- [2]
  45.         "Ranged", -- [3]
  46.         "9 - 17 Fire Damage", -- [4]
  47.         "(8.7 damage per second)", -- [5]
  48.         "Requires Level 6", -- [6]
  49.         "Item Level 12", -- [7]
  50.         " ", -- [8]
  51.     },
  52. }
