They shall carry the tabernacle and all its furnishings, and they shall take care of it; they shall also camp around the tabernacle.50But appoint the Levites over the tabernacle of the testimony, over all its furnishings and over everything in it. They must carry the tabernacle and all its furnishings; and they must attend to it and camp around it.
51"So when the tabernacle is to set out, the Levites shall take it down; and when the tabernacle encamps, the Levites shall set it up. But the layman who comes near shall be put to death.51Whenever the tabernacle is to move, the Levites must take it down, and whenever the tabernacle is to be reassembled, the Levites must set it up. Any unauthorized person who approaches it must be killed.
52"The sons of Israel shall camp, each man by his own camp, and each man by his own standard, according to their armies.52"The Israelites will camp according to their divisions, each man in his camp, and each man by his standard.
53"But the Levites shall camp around the tabernacle of the testimony, so that there will be no wrath on the congregation of the sons of Israel. So the Levites shall keep charge of the tabernacle of the testimony."53But the Levites must camp around the tabernacle of the testimony, so that the LORD's anger will not fall on the Israelite community. The Levites are responsible for the care of the tabernacle of the testimony."
54Thus the sons of Israel did; according to all which the LORD had commanded Moses, so they did.54The Israelites did according to all that the LORD commanded Moses--that is what they did.
