Yahweh spoke to Moses in the tent of meeting in the wilderness of Sinai. This happened on the first day of the second month during the second year after the people of Israel had come out from the land of Egypt. Yahweh said,
2 “Kaw kwan dhout oganda mar jo-Israel duto kaluwore gi gwengegi kod anywolagi, kindiko nying joma chwo duto moro ka moro.
“Conduct a census of all the men of Israel in each clan, in their fathers' families. Count them by name. Count every male, each man

4 Kaw ngʼato achiel koa e dhoot ka dhoot, ka moro ka moro otelo ne jog-gi mondo okonyi kweno.
A man from each tribe, a clan head, must serve with you as his tribe's leader. Each leader must lead the men who will fight for his tribe.

48 Jehova Nyasaye nowacho ne Musa niya,
because Yahweh had said to Moses,
49 “Kik ikwan dhood Lawi kata riwogi e kweno mar jo-Israel mamoko.
“You must not count the tribe of Levi or include them in the total of the people of Israel.
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, 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 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.
When the tabernacle is to move to another place, the Levites must take it down. When the tabernacle is to be set up, the Levites must set it up. Any stranger who comes near the tabernacle must be killed.
52 Jo-Israel nyaka gur hembegi e migepe, ka ngʼato ka ngʼato nitiere kare owuon kaluwore gi rangʼiny moketi.
When the people of Israel set up their tents, each man must do so near the banner that belongs to his armed group.
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.”
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 Jo-Israel notimo gigi duto mana kaka Jehova Nyasaye nochiko Musa.
The people of Israel did all these things. They did everything that Yahweh commanded through Moses.
