Numbers 1
1 The Lord spoke to Moses in the Tent of Meeting while they were in the Sinai desert. This was on the first day of the second month of the second year after the Israelites had left Egypt. He told him,
以色列人出埃及地後，第二年二月初一日，耶和華在西奈的曠野、會幕中曉諭摩西說：
2 “Census all the Israelites according to their tribe and family. Count every man and keep a record of each individual's name.
「你要按以色列全會眾的家室、宗族、人名的數目計算所有的男丁。
3 Those aged twenty or older who can do military service are to be registered by you and Aaron in their Israelite army divisions.
凡以色列中，從二十歲以外，能出去打仗的，你和亞倫要照他們的軍隊數點。
4 A representative from each tribe, the head of a family, must be there with you.
每支派中必有一人作本支派的族長，幫助你們。

這都是從會中選召的，各作本支派的首領，都是以色列軍中的統領。」
17 Moses and Aaron summoned these men who had been selected by name.
於是，摩西、亞倫帶着這些按名指定的人，
18 They had all the Israelites gather together on the first day of the second month, and recorded the people's genealogy according to their tribe and family, and counted up the names of all those aged twenty or older,
當二月初一日招聚全會眾。會眾就照他們的家室、宗族、人名的數目，從二十歲以外的，都述說自己的家譜。

47 However, the Levites were not registered with the others according to their tribe and families.
利未人卻沒有按着支派數在其中，
48 This was because the Lord had told Moses,
因為耶和華曉諭摩西說：
49 “Don't register the tribe of Levi; don't count them in the census with the other Israelites.
「惟獨利未支派你不可數點，也不可在以色列人中計算他們的總數。
50 Put the Levites in charge of the Tabernacle and of the Testimony, as well as all its furniture and everything it contains. They are the ones responsible for carrying the Tabernacle and all its items. They are to care for it, and to make their camp around it.
只要派利未人管法櫃的帳幕和其中的器具，並屬乎帳幕的；他們要抬帳幕和其中的器具，並要辦理帳幕的事，在帳幕的四圍安營。
51 When it's time to move the Tabernacle, the Levites shall take it down, and when it's time to make camp, the Levites shall put it up. Any outsider who goes near it must be put to death.
帳幕將往前行的時候，利未人要拆卸；將支搭的時候，利未人要豎起。近前來的外人必被治死。
52 The Israelites are to make camp according to their tribal divisions, each person in their own camp under their own flag.
以色列人支搭帳棚，要照他們的軍隊，各歸本營，各歸本纛。
53 But the Levites are to set up their camp around the Tabernacle of the Testimony to stop anyone making me angry with the Israelites. The Levites are responsible for looking after the Tabernacle of the Testimony.”
但利未人要在法櫃帳幕的四圍安營，免得忿怒臨到以色列會眾；利未人並要謹守法櫃的帳幕。」
54 The Israelites did everything that the Lord ordered Moses that they should do.
以色列人就這樣行。凡耶和華所吩咐摩西的，他們就照樣行了。
