The Levites ,
however,
were
not
numbered
along
with
them
by
the tribe of their fathers.
But
the Levites after
the tribe of their fathers were
not
numbered
among
them
.
For the LORD had said
to
Moses :
For the LORD had spoken
unto
Moses ,
saying,
“Do
not number the tribe of Levi in
the census
with
the other
Israelites.
Only
thou
shalt
not number the tribe of Levi ,
neither
take
the sum
of
them
among
the children
of
Israel:
Instead,
you
are
to
appoint the Levites over the tabernacle of the
Testimony, all its
furnishings
, and everything
in
it .
They shall carry
the tabernacle and all its
articles,
care
for
it, and camp
around
it
.
But
thou
shalt
appoint the Levites over the tabernacle of testimony, and
over
all the
vessels
thereof
, and over
all
things
that
belong
to
it :
they shall bear
the tabernacle ,
and all the
vessels
thereof;
and
they
shall
minister
unto
it, and shall
encamp
round
about
the
tabernacle
.
Whenever
the tabernacle is
to
move
, the Levites are
to
take it down ,
and whenever
it
is to be pitched, the Levites are
to
set it up .
Any
outsider
who
goes
near
it
must
be put to death.
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.
The Israelites
are
to
camp
by
their divisions
, each
man in
his own camp and under
his own standard.
And
the children
of
Israel
shall
pitch
their tents
, every
man by
his own camp ,
and every
man
by
his own standard ,
throughout
their
hosts
.
But the Levites are
to
camp
around
the tabernacle of the
Testimony and
watch
over
it
, so
that no wrath will
fall
on
the congregation of Israel .
So
the Levites are
responsible
for
the tabernacle
of the Testimony. ”
But the Levites shall
pitch
round
about
the tabernacle of 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
testimony.
Thus
the Israelites
did everything
just
as
the LORD had
commanded Moses.
And
the children
of
Israel
did according
to
all
that
the LORD commanded Moses ,
so
did
they
.
