47
And the Levites, for the tribe of their fathers , have not numbered themselves in their midst ,
48
seeing Jehovah speaketh unto Moses , saying,
49
`Only, the tribe of Levi thou dost not number, and their sum thou dost not take up in the midst of the sons of Israel ;
50
and thou, appoint the Levites over the tabernacle of the testimony, and over all its vessels , and over all that it hath; they bear the tabernacle, and all its vessels , and they serve it; and round about the tabernacle they encamp.
51
`And in the journeying of the tabernacle, the Levites take it down , and in the encamping of the tabernacle, the Levites raise it up; and the stranger who is coming near is put to death.'
52
And the sons of Israel have encamped , each by his camp , and each by his standard , by their hosts;
53
and the Levites encamp round about the tabernacle of the testimony; and there is no wrath on the company of the sons of Israel , and the Levites have kept the charge of the tabernacle of the testimony.
54
And the sons of Israel do according to all that Jehovah hath commanded Moses ; so they have done.
