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:

“Take a census of the whole congregation of Israel by their clans and families, listing every man by name, one by one.

48 BOEIPA loh Moses te a voek tih,
For the LORD had said to Moses:
49 “Levi koca bueng tah soep thil boel lamtah amih khuikah a lu te Israel ca khui la khuen boeh.
“Do not number the tribe of Levi in the census with the other Israelites.

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.

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 ca khuikah hlang he amah kah rhaehhmuen ah rhaeh saeh lamtah hlang he amah caempuei kah a hnitai neh om saeh.
The Israelites are to camp by their divisions, each man in his own camp and under his own standard.

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 Israel ca rhoek loh a saii uh vaengah BOEIPA loh Moses a uen bangla a cungkuem te a saii uh.
Thus the Israelites did everything just as the LORD had commanded Moses.
