Yawe alobaki na Moyize:
49 “Don't register the tribe of Levi; don't count them in the census with the other Israelites.
« Kotanga te motango ya bato ya libota ya Levi, kokotisa bango te na molongo ya bato mosusu ya Isalaele.
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.
Okopesa na bato ya libota ya Levi mokumba ya Mongombo ya Litatoli mpe ya bisalelo na yango nyonso elongo na biloko nyonso oyo ezalaka kati na Mongombo. Bango bakozwa mokumba ya komemaka yango elongo na bisalelo na yango mpe bakovanda zingazinga na yango.
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.
Tango nyonso Mongombo ekolongwa na esika moko mpo na kokende na esika mosusu, Balevi nde bakolongola yango; mpe tango ekotelema, bango mpe kaka nde bakotelemisa yango. Moto mosusu oyo akopusana pembeni na yango asengeli kokufa.
52 The Israelites are to make camp according to their tribal divisions, each person in their own camp under their own flag.
Bana ya Isalaele bakotelemisa bandako na bango ya kapo kolanda milongo na bango ya mampinga, mpe moto na moto akozala kati na molako na ye, na se ya bendele na ye.
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.”
Kasi bato ya libota ya Levi bakotelemisa bandako na bango ya kapo zingazinga ya Mongombo ya Litatoli mpo ete kanda makasi ya Yawe ekoka kokweya likolo ya lisanga ya bana ya Isalaele te. Bato ya libota ya Levi nde bakosala mosala ya kobatela Mongombo ya Litatoli. »
54 The Israelites did everything that the Lord ordered Moses that they should do.
Bana ya Isalaele basalaki makambo oyo nyonso, ndenge kaka Yawe atindaki na nzela ya Moyize.
