49 “ Do not number the tribe of Levi in the census with the other Israelites. “Only the tribe of Levi you shall not list, and you shall not take a census of them among the people of Israel. Only thou shalt not number the tribe of Levi, neither take the sum of them among the children of Israel: “Only the tribe of Levi you shall not count, nor shall you take their census among the sons of Israel. “You must not count the tribe of Levi or include them in the census of the other Israelites.
50 Instead, you are to appoint the Levites over the tabernacle of the Testimony, all its furnishings, and everything in it. They shall carry the tabernacle and all its articles, care for it, and camp around it. But appoint the Levites over the tabernacle of the testimony, and over all its furnishings, and over all that belongs to it. They are to carry the tabernacle and all its furnishings, and they shall take care of it and shall camp around the tabernacle. But thou shalt appoint the Levites over the tabernacle of testimony, and over all the vessels thereof, and over all things that <i>belong</i> 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. And you shall appoint the Levites over the tabernacle of the testimony, and over all its furnishings and over everything that belongs to it. They shall carry the tabernacle and all its furnishings, and they shall take care of it; they shall also camp around the tabernacle. Instead, appoint the Levites to be in charge of the tabernacle of the covenant law—over all its furnishings and everything belonging to it. They are to carry the tabernacle and all its furnishings; they are to take care of it and encamp around it.
51 Whenever the tabernacle is to move, the Levites are to take it down, and whenever it is to be pitched, the Levites are to set it up. Any outsider who goes near it must be put to death. When the tabernacle is to set out, the Levites shall take it down, and when the tabernacle is to be pitched, the Levites shall set it up. And if any outsider comes near, he shall be put to death. And 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. So when the tabernacle is to move on, the Levites shall take it down; and when the tabernacle encamps, the Levites shall set it up. But the layman who comes near <i>it</i> shall be put to death. Whenever the tabernacle is to move, the Levites are to take it down, and whenever the tabernacle is to be set up, the Levites shall do it. Anyone else who approaches it is to be put to death.
52 The Israelites are to camp by their divisions, each man in his own camp and under his own standard. The people of Israel shall pitch their tents by their companies, each man in his own camp and each man by his own standard. And the children of Israel shall pitch their tents, every man by his own camp, and every man by his own standard, throughout their hosts. So the sons of Israel shall camp, each man by his own camp, and each man by his own flag, according to their armies. The Israelites are to set up their tents by divisions, each of them in their own camp under their standard.
53 But the Levites are to camp around the tabernacle of the Testimony and watch over it, so that no wrath will fall on the congregation of Israel. So the Levites are responsible for the tabernacle of the Testimony.” But the Levites shall camp around the tabernacle of the testimony, so that there may be no wrath on the congregation of the people of Israel. And the Levites shall keep guard over the tabernacle of the testimony.” But 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. But the Levites shall camp around the tabernacle of the testimony, so that there will be no <i>divine</i> wrath against the congregation of the sons of Israel. So the Levites shall be responsible for service to the tabernacle of the testimony.” The Levites, however, are to set up their tents around the tabernacle of the covenant law so that my wrath will not fall on the Israelite community. The Levites are to be responsible for the care of the tabernacle of the covenant law.”
54 Thus the Israelites did everything just as the LORD had commanded Moses. Thus did the people of Israel; they did according to all that the LORD commanded Moses. And the children of Israel did according to all that the LORD commanded Moses, so did they. And the sons of Israel did <i>so;</i> in accordance with all that the LORD had commanded Moses, so they did. The Israelites did all this just as the LORD commanded Moses.
