1 And the Lord spoke to Moses in the desert of Sinai in the tabernacle of the covenant, the first day of the second month, the second year of their going out of Egypt, saying:

Na Awurade aka akyerɛ Mose se,
49 Number not the tribe of Levi, neither shalt thou put down the sum of them with the children of Israel:
“Nkan Lewifo abusuakuw no, na mfa wɔn nka Israelfo a wɔaka no ho.
50 But appoint them over the tabernacle of the testimony, and all the vessels thereof, and whatsoever pertaineth to the ceremonies. They shall carry the tabernacle and all the furniture thereof: and they shall minister, and shall encamp round about the tabernacle.
Fa Ahyiae Ntamadan no ho dwumadi hyɛ Lewifo no nsa. Wɔnhwɛ nneɛma a wɔde asiesie mu ne nea ɛkeka ho nyinaa so. Wɔn na wɔbɛsoa Ahyiae Ntamadan no ne mu nneɛma, wɔbɛhwɛ so na wɔatenatena ho.
51 When you are to go forward, the Levites shall take down the tabernacle: when you are to camp, they shall set it up. What stranger soever cometh to it, shall be slain.
Bere biara a ɛsɛ sɛ wotu Ahyiae Ntamadan no, Lewifo no na ɛsɛ sɛ wotutu, na baabiara a wɔde besi no, wɔn na wɔbɛyɛ. Onipa foforo biara a ɔbɛbɛn ho no, wobekum no.
52 And the children of Israel shall camp every man by his troops and bands and army.
Israel abusuakuw biara benya ne tenabea ne ne frankaa.
53 But the Levites shall pitch their tents round about the tabernacle, lest there come indignation upon the multitude of the children of Israel, and they shall keep watch, and guard the tabernacle of the testimony.
Lewifo no besisi wɔn ntamadan atwa Ahyiae Ntamadan no ho ahyia, sɛnea ɛbɛyɛ a Onyankopɔn abufuwhyew remma Israelfo no so. Lewifo no na wɔbɛhwɛ Ahyiae Ntamadan no so.”
54 And the children of Israel did according to all things which the Lord had commanded Moses.
Israelfo no yɛɛ eyinom nyinaa sɛnea Awurade hyɛɛ Mose no.
