49 Levi acaeng loe kroek hmah loe, Israel kaminawk thungah doeh athumsak hmah.
“You must not count the tribe of Levi or include them in the total of the people of Israel.

Instead, assign the Levites to care for the tabernacle of the covenant decrees, and to care for all the furnishings in the tabernacle and for everything in it. The Levites must carry the tabernacle, and they must carry the tabernacle's furnishings. They must care for the tabernacle and make their camp around it.
51 Kahni im puenhaih tue phak naah, Levi kaminawk mah pakuem o ueloe, kahni im sakhaih tue phak naah doeh, Levi kaminawk mah sah o tih; kahni im taengah kacaeh kalah kami loe paduek han oh.

52 Israel kaminawk mah angmacae ih im sak o naah, misatuh kami boih mah, angmacae ataihaih ahmuen to angmacae hoi karaem ah sah o tih.
When the people of Israel set up their tents, each man must do so near the banner that belongs to his armed group.
53 Toe amkhueng Israel kaminawk nuiah palungphuihaih phak han ai ah, Levi kaminawk loe hnukung lokthuihaih kahni im taengah atai o ueloe, hnukung lokthuihaih kahni im to khenzawn o tih, tiah a naa.
However, the Levites must set up their tents around the tabernacle of the covenant decrees so that my anger does not come upon the people of Israel. The Levites must care for the tabernacle of the covenant decrees.”
54 Angraeng mah Mosi khaeah thuih ih lok baktih toengah, Israel kaminawk mah sak o.
The people of Israel did all these things. They did everything that Yahweh commanded through Moses.
