Ke womexlẽ Levi ƒe viwo ƒe ƒomewo kple aƒewo kpe ɖe wo ŋuti o.
48 For the LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
Elabena Yehowa gblɔ na Mose be,
49 "Only the tribe of Levi you shall not number, neither shall you take a census of them among the children of Israel;
“Ɖe Levi ƒe viwo katã ɖa le amexexlẽ sia me, eye mègabu wo kpe ɖe Israelvi bubuwo ƒe xexlẽme ŋu o,
50 but appoint the Levites over the Tabernacle of the Testimony, and over all its furnishings, and over all that belongs to it. They shall carry the tabernacle, and all its furnishings; and they shall take care of it, and shall camp around it.
elabena Levi ƒe viwo ƒe dɔdeasiwo ku ɖe Agbadɔ la kple ekɔkɔ tso teƒe ɖeka yi teƒe bubu ŋu. Woanɔ Agbadɔ la gbɔ,
51 When the tabernacle is to move, the Levites shall take it down; and when the tabernacle is to be set up, the Levites shall set it up. The unauthorized person who comes near shall be put to death.
eye ɣe sia ɣi si woaho Agbadɔ la ayi teƒe bubu la, Levi ƒe viwoe akakae, eye woawoe agakpee; ne ame bubu aɖe te va la, aku.
52 The children of Israel shall pitch their tents, every man by his own camp, and every man by his own standard, according to their divisions.
Israelviwo ƒe to vovovoawo aƒu asaɖa anyi ɖe teƒe vovovowo, ɖe sia ɖe kple eƒe aflaga tɔxɛ
53 But the Levites shall camp around the Tabernacle of the Testimony, that there may be no wrath on the congregation of the children of Israel: and the Levites shall be responsible for the Tabernacle of the Testimony."
Levi ƒe viwo ƒe agbadɔwo aƒo xlã Mawu ƒe Agbadɔ la, eye woanɔ eŋu dzɔm, ale be ame aɖeke mate ɖe eŋu, ana be nye dɔmedzoe nafla, eye matsrɔ̃ Israel dukɔ la o.”
54 Thus the children of Israel did. According to all that the LORD commanded Moses, so they did.
