47 But this number did not include the names of the men of the tribe of Levi,
And the Levites to [the] tribe of ancestors their not they were enrolled in midst of them.
48 because Yahweh had said to Moses/me,
And he had spoken Yahweh to Moses saying.
49 “When you (count/write the names of) the men of the tribes of Israel, do not count the men in the tribe of Levi.
Only [the] tribe of Levi not you will enroll and head their not you will lift up in among [the] people of Israel.
50 Appoint the male descendants of Levi to take care of the Sacred Tent and the chest inside it that contains [the tablets on which are written] the Ten Commandments. They must also take care of the other things that are inside the tent. [When you travel], they are the ones who must carry the tent and all the things that are inside it, and they must take care of it and set up their tents around it.
And you appoint the Levites over [the] tabernacle of the testimony and over all articles its and over all that [belongs] to it they they will carry the tabernacle and all articles its and they they will serve it and around the tabernacle they will encamp.
51 Whenever it is time for all of you to move [to another location], the descendants of Levi are the ones who must dismantle the tent. And when it is time to stop traveling, they are the ones who must set up the Sacred Tent again. Any other person who goes near the Sacred Tent [to do this work] must be executed.
And when sets out the tabernacle they will take down it the Levites and when encamps the tabernacle they will raise up it the Levites and the stranger approaching he will be put to death.
52 The people of each Israeli tribe must set up their tents in their own area, and they must set up a flag/banner that represents their tribe.
And they will encamp [the] people of Israel everyone at camp his and everyone at standard his to military groups their.
53 But the male descendants of Levi must set up their tents around the Sacred Tent, in order to protect the other Israeli people from being punished [MTY] by Yahweh [for coming close to the Sacred Tent]. The descendants of Levi are the ones who must stand around the Sacred Tent to guard it.”
And the Levites they will encamp around [the] tabernacle of the testimony and not it will be wrath towards [the] congregation of [the] people Israel and they will keep the Levites [the] duty of [the] tabernacle of the testimony.
54 So the Israeli people did everything just like Yahweh had commanded Moses/me.
And they did [the] people of Israel according to all that he had commanded Yahweh Moses so they did.
