47 But the Levites after the tribe of their fathers were not numbered among them.
Ke womexlẽ Levi ƒe viwo ƒe ƒomewo kple aƒewo kpe ɖe wo ŋuti o.
48 For the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
Elabena Yehowa gblɔ na Mose be,
49 Only the tribe of Levi thou shalt not number, neither shalt thou take the sum of them among the children of Israel:
“Ɖe Levi ƒe viwo katã ɖa le amexexlẽ sia me, eye mègabu wo kpe ɖe Israelvi bubuwo ƒe xexlẽme ŋu o,
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.
elabena Levi ƒe viwo ƒe dɔdeasiwo ku ɖe Agbadɔ la kple ekɔkɔ tso teƒe ɖeka yi teƒe bubu ŋu. Woanɔ Agbadɔ la gbɔ,
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.
eye ɣe sia ɣi si woaho Agbadɔ la ayi teƒe bubu la, Levi ƒe viwoe akakae, eye woawoe agakpee; ne ame bubu aɖe te va la, aku.
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.
Israelviwo ƒe to vovovoawo aƒu asaɖa anyi ɖe teƒe vovovowo, ɖe sia ɖe kple eƒe aflaga tɔxɛ
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.
Levi ƒe viwo ƒe agbadɔwo aƒo xlã Mawu ƒe Agbadɔ la, eye woanɔ eŋu dzɔm, ale be ame aɖeke mate ɖe eŋu, ana be nye dɔmedzoe nafla, eye matsrɔ̃ Israel dukɔ la o.”
54 Thus did the children of Israel; according to all that the LORD commanded Moses, so did they.
Ale Israelviwo wɔ se siwo katã Yehowa de na Mose la dzi pɛpɛpɛ.
