33 However, the Levites were not counted among the other Israelites, following the Lord's instructions to Moses.
But the Levites were not numbered among the children of Israel; as Jehovah had commanded Moses.
34 The Israelites did everything the Lord had ordered Moses. They set up their camps under their flags in their assigned positions, and marched out in the same order, each with their own tribe and family.
And the children of Israel did according to all that Jehovah had commanded Moses: so they encamped according to their standards, and so they journeyed, every one according to their families, according to their fathers' houses.
