1 Chiengʼ mokwongo mar dwe mar ariyo e higa mar ariyo Jehova Nyasaye nowuoyo gi Musa e Hemb Romo e Thim mar Sinai ka jo-Israel nosewuok Misri. Nowachone niya,
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:
2 “Kaw kwan dhout oganda mar jo-Israel duto kaluwore gi gwengegi kod anywolagi, kindiko nying joma chwo duto moro ka moro.
“Take a census of the whole congregation of Israel by their clans and families, listing every man by name, one by one.
3 In kod Harun mondo ukwan jo-Israel kuketogi e migepegi, ma mago jo-higni piero ariyo kadhi nyime nyalo tiyo e lweny.
You and Aaron are to number those who are twenty years of age or older by their divisions—everyone who can serve in Israel’s army.
4 Kaw ngʼato achiel koa e dhoot ka dhoot, ka moro ka moro otelo ne jog-gi mondo okonyi kweno.
And one man from each tribe, the head of each family, must be there with you.
5 “Magi e nying joma chwo mabiro konyi kweno: “koa kuom joka Reuben, kaw Elizur wuod Shedeur;

47 Anywola mar jo-Lawi, kata kamano, ne ok okwan gi joma moko.
The Levites, however, were not numbered along with them by the tribe of their fathers.
48 Jehova Nyasaye nowacho ne Musa niya,
For the LORD had said to Moses:
49 “Kik ikwan dhood Lawi kata riwogi e kweno mar jo-Israel mamoko.
“Do not number the tribe of Levi in the census with the other Israelites.
50 Kuom mano, yier jo-Lawi mondo obed jorit Hemb Romo mar Rapar kaachiel gi gik moko duto manie iye. Gin ema nyaka gitingʼ Hemb Romo gi gige; kendo girite maber ka gilwore kod hembegi koni gi koni.
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 Kamoro amora ma itero e Hema, jo-Lawi ema nyaka gole oko, kendo kamoro amora midhi gure Hema, jo-Lawi ema nyaka gure. Ngʼato angʼata mosudo machiegni kode nyaka negi.
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 Jo-Israel nyaka gur hembegi e migepe, ka ngʼato ka ngʼato nitiere kare owuon kaluwore gi rangʼiny moketi.
The Israelites are to camp by their divisions, each man in his own camp and under his own standard.
53 Jo-Lawi, kata kamano, nyaka gur hembegi e alwora mar Hemb Romo mar Rapar mondo omi mirimb Jehova Nyasaye kik lwar kuom oganda mar jo-Israel. Jo-Lawi nobed karito Hemb Romo mar Rapar.”
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 Jo-Israel notimo gigi duto mana kaka Jehova Nyasaye nochiko Musa.
Thus the Israelites did everything just as the LORD had commanded Moses.
