48 And the LORD spoke unto Moses, saying:
因為上主曾訓示梅瑟說:「
49 'Howbeit the tribe of Levi thou shalt not number, neither shalt thou take the sum of them among the children of Israel;
只有肋未支派,不要登記,不要將他們列在以色列子民內。
50 but appoint thou the Levites over the tabernacle of the testimony, and over all the furniture thereof, and over all that belongeth to it; they shall bear the tabernacle, and all the furniture thereof; and they shall minister unto it, and shall encamp round about the tabernacle.
你應派肋未人管理會幕和其中一切器皿,並一切附屬物。他們要搬運會幕和其中一切器皿,在會幕中服務,住在會幕的四周。
51 And when the tabernacle setteth forward, the Levites shall take it down; and when the tabernacle is to be pitched, the Levites shall set it up; and the common man that draweth nigh shall be put to death.
會幕要遷移時,肋未人拆卸;會幕要搭紮時,肋未人張搭;若俗人走近,應處死刑。
52 And the children of Israel shall pitch their tents, every man with his own camp, and every man with his own standard, according to their hosts.
以色列子民應分隊紮營,各歸本旗。
53 But the Levites shall pitch round about the tabernacle of the testimony, that there be no wrath upon the congregation of the children of Israel; and the Levites shall keep the charge of the tabernacle of the testimony.'
但肋未人應在會幕四周紮營,免得以色列子民會眾觸犯天怒;肋未人應負責看守會幕。」
54 Thus did the children of Israel; according to all that the LORD commanded Moses, so did they.
以色列子民都照辦了;上主怎樣吩咐了梅瑟,他們就怎樣辦了。
