Numbers 1:48-54
48For the LordH3068 had spokenH1696 to MosesH4872, sayingH559,
49“OnlyH389 the tribeH4294 of LeviH3878 1you shall not numberH6485, norH3808 shall you takeH5375 their 2censusH7218 amongH8432 the sonsH1121 of IsraelH3478.
50But you shall 3appointH6485 the LevitesH3881 overH5921 the 4tabernacleH4908 of the testimonyH5715, and overH5921 allH3605 its furnishingsH3627 and overH5921 allH3605 that belongs to it. They shall carryH5375 the tabernacleH4908 and allH3605 its furnishingsH3627, and they shall takeH8334 careH8334 of it; they shall also campH2583 aroundH5439 the 5tabernacleH4908.
516So when the tabernacleH4908 is to setH5265 out, the LevitesH3881 shall takeH3381 it downH3381; and when the tabernacleH4908 encampsH2583, the LevitesH3881 shall setH6965 it up. But 7the 8laymanH2114 who comesH7131 nearH7131 shall be putH4191 to deathH4191.
529The sonsH1121 of IsraelH3478 shall campH2583, eachH376 manH376 by his own campH4264, and eachH376 manH376 by his own standardH1714, according to their armiesH6635.
5310But the LevitesH3881 shall campH2583 aroundH5439 the tabernacleH4908 of the testimonyH5715, so that there will be 11noH3808 wrathH7110 on the congregationH5712 of the sonsH1121 of IsraelH3478. 12So the LevitesH3881 shall keepH8104 chargeH4931 of the tabernacleH4908 of the testimonyH5715.”
54Thus the sonsH1121 of IsraelH3478 didH6213; according to allH3605 whichH834 the LordH3068 had commandedH6680 MosesH4872, soH3651 they didH6213.
