“Do not number the tribe of Levi, neither shall you take a total of them with the sons of Israel.

But appoint them over the tabernacle of the testimony, and all its vessels, and whatever pertains to the ceremonies. They shall carry the tabernacle and all its articles. And they shall be for the ministry, and they shall encamp all around the tabernacle.
51 Rĩrĩa rĩothe hema ĩyo ĩgũthaamio, Alawii acio nĩo marĩmĩambũraga, na rĩrĩa rĩothe hema ĩyo ĩĩkwambwo-rĩ, Alawii acio nĩo marĩmĩambaga. Mũndũ ũngĩ o na ũrĩkũ angĩkamĩkuhĩrĩria nĩakooragwo.
When you would depart, the Levites shall take down the tabernacle. When you are to make camp, they shall set it up. Any outsider who will approach it shall be killed.
52 Andũ a Isiraeli marĩambaga hema ciao kũringana na ikundi ciao, o mũndũ kambĩ-inĩ yake harĩa bendera yake ĩrĩ.
Now the sons of Israel shall make camp, each one by his companies and bands, as well as his army.
53 No rĩrĩ, Alawii marĩambaga hema ciao mathiũrũrũkĩirie hema ya Ũira nĩgeetha kĩrĩndĩ kĩu kĩa Isiraeli gĩtigakorererwo nĩ mangʼũrĩ ma Ngai. Alawii nĩo marĩĩhokagĩrwo ũmenyereri wa hema ĩyo ya Ũira.”
Moreover, the Levites shall fix their tents all around the tabernacle, lest there be an indignation over the multitude of the sons of Israel. And they shall stand watch as guardians over the tabernacle of the testimony.”
54 Nao andũ a Isiraeli magĩĩka maũndũ macio o ta ũrĩa Jehova aathĩte Musa.
Therefore, the sons of Israel acted according to everything that the Lord had instructed Moses.
