On the first day of the second month of the second year after the Israelites had come out of the land of Egypt, the LORD spoke to Moses in the Tent of Meeting in the Wilderness of Sinai. He said:

48 Angraeng mah Mosi khaeah,
For the LORD had said to Moses:
49 Levi acaeng loe kroek hmah loe, Israel kaminawk thungah doeh athumsak hmah.
“Do not number the tribe of Levi in the census with the other Israelites.
50 Toe Levi kaminawk loe hnukung lokthuihaih kahni im khenzawnkung, laom sabaenawk boih hoi to imthung ah kaom hmuennawk boih toepkung ah suem ah; nihcae loe kahni im hoi laom sabaenawk boih to apu o tih; nihcae mah kahni im thung ih sak han koi tok to sah o ueloe, ataihaih ahmuen phak o naah, kahni im taengah om o tih.
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.
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.
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.
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.
The Israelites are to camp by their divisions, each man in his own camp and under his own standard.
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.
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.”
54 Angraeng mah Mosi khaeah thuih ih lok baktih toengah, Israel kaminawk mah sak o.
Thus the Israelites did everything just as the LORD had commanded Moses.
