Bwana alikuwa amemwambia Mose:
49 See, you shall not muster the tribe of Levi, and you shall not take their numbers, in the midst of the children of Israel.
“Kamwe usihesabu kabila la Lawi wala kuwaweka pamoja katika hesabu ya Waisraeli wengine.
50 And do you set the Levites over the tabernacle of witness, and over all its furniture, and over all things that are in it; and they shall do service in it, and they shall encamp round about the tabernacle.
Badala yake, waweke Walawi kuwa viongozi wa Maskani ya Ushuhuda, juu ya samani zake na kila kitu kilichomo ndani yake. Wao watabeba Maskani na samani zake zote; wataitunza na kupiga kambi kuizunguka.
51 And in removing the tabernacle, the Levites shall take it down, and in pitching the tabernacle they shall set it up: and let the stranger that advances [to touch it] die.
Wakati wowote Maskani inapohamishwa, Walawi wataifungua, na wakati wowote maskani inapotakiwa kusimamishwa, Walawi watafanya kazi hiyo. Mtu yeyote mwingine ambaye atasogea karibu nayo atauawa.
52 And the children of Israel shall encamp, every man in his own order, and every man according to his company, with their host.
Waisraeli watapiga mahema yao kwa makundi makundi, kila mwanaume katika kambi yake mwenyewe chini ya bendera yake.
53 But let the Levites encamp round about the tabernacle of witness fronting it, and [so] there shall be no sin amongst the children of Israel; and the Levites themselves shall keep the guard of the tabernacle of witness.
Hata hivyo, Walawi watapiga mahema yao kuzunguka Maskani ya Ushuhuda ili ghadhabu isiipate jumuiya ya Waisraeli. Walawi watawajibika kwa utunzaji wa Maskani ya Ushuhuda.”
54 And the children of Israel did according to all that the Lord commanded Moses and Aaron, so did they.
Waisraeli walifanya yote haya sawasawa kama Bwana alivyomwamuru Mose.
