For Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying,

“Only the tribe of Levi you shall not count, neither shall you take a census of them among the children 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.

but appoint the Levites over the Tabernacle of the Testimony, and over all its furnishings, and over all that belongs to it. They shall carry the tabernacle and all its furnishings; and they shall take care of it, and shall encamp 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, the Levites shall take it down; and when the tabernacle is to be set up, the Levites shall set it up. The stranger who comes near shall be put to death.

52 Jo-Israel nyaka gur hembegi e migepe, ka ngʼato ka ngʼato nitiere kare owuon kaluwore gi rangʼiny moketi.

The children of Israel shall pitch their tents, every man by his own camp, and every man by his own standard, according to their divisions.

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 shall encamp around the Tabernacle of the Testimony, that there may be no wrath on the congregation of the children of Israel. The Levites shall be responsible for the Tabernacle of the Testimony.”
