47But the Levites after the tribe of their fathers were not numbered among them.47But this total did not include the Levites.
48For the LORD had spoken unto Moses, saying,48For the LORD had said to Moses,
49Only thou shalt not number the tribe of Levi, neither take the sum of them among the children of Israel:49“Do not include the tribe of Levi in the registration; do not count them with the rest of the Israelites.
50But thou shalt appoint the Levites over the tabernacle of testimony, and over all the vessels thereof, and over all things that belong to it: they shall bear the tabernacle, and all the vessels thereof; and they shall minister unto it, and shall encamp round about the tabernacle.50Put the Levites in charge of the Tabernacle of the Covenant, along with all its furnishings and equipment. They must carry the Tabernacle and all its furnishings as you travel, and they must take care of it and camp around it.
51And when the tabernacle setteth forward, the Levites shall take it down: and when the tabernacle is to be pitched, the Levites shall set it up: and the stranger that cometh nigh shall be put to death.51Whenever it is time for the Tabernacle to move, the Levites will take it down. And when it is time to stop, they will set it up again. But any unauthorized person who goes too near the Tabernacle must be put to death.
52And the children of Israel shall pitch their tents, every man by his own camp, and every man by his own standard, throughout their hosts.52Each tribe of Israel will camp in a designated area with its own family banner.
53But the Levites shall pitch round about the tabernacle of testimony, that there be no wrath upon the congregation of the children of Israel: and the Levites shall keep the charge of the tabernacle of testimony.53But the Levites will camp around the Tabernacle of the Covenant to protect the community of Israel from the LORD’s anger. The Levites are responsible to stand guard around the Tabernacle.”
54And the children of Israel did according to all that the LORD commanded Moses, so did they.54So the Israelites did everything just as the LORD had commanded Moses.
