Pakuti Yehova anawuza Mose kuti,
49 Only the tribe of Levi thou shalt not number, neither shalt thou take the sum of them among the children of Israel:
“Usawerenge fuko la Levi kapena kuliphatikiza mʼkawundula wa Aisraeli.
50 but appoint thou the Levites over the tabernacle of the testimony, and over all the furniture thereof, and over all that belongeth to it: they shall bear the tabernacle, and all the furniture thereof; and they shall minister unto it, and shall encamp round about the tabernacle.
Koma uyike Aleviwo kuti aziyangʼanira tenti yanga yopatulika, zipangizo zake ndi zonse zili mʼmenemo. Azinyamula tentiyo pamodzi ndi zipangizo zake zonse; azisamalira ndi kumanga misasa mozungulira tentiyo.
51 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.
Pamene akusamutsa tentiyo, Alevi ndiwo aziyitsitsa, akafuna kuyimanganso, Alevi ndiwo aziyimiritsa. Wina aliyense amene adzayandikire tentiyo adzaphedwa.
52 And the children of Israel shall pitch their tents, every man by his own camp, and every man by his own standard, according to their hosts.
Aisraeli azimanga matenti awo mʼmagulumagulu, munthu aliyense ku gulu lake pansi pa mbendera yake.
53 But the Levites shall pitch round about the tabernacle of the 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 the testimony.
Alevi nawonso, azimanga matenti awo mozungulira tenti yopatulika kuti chilango chisagwere Aisraeli onse. Ndipo Alevi aziyangʼanira ndi kusamalira tenti yopatulikayo.”
54 Thus did the children of Israel; according to all that the LORD commanded Moses, so did they.
Choncho Aisraeli anachita monga Yehova analamulira Mose.
