49 “Ị gaghị agụ ndị ebo Livayị ọnụ. Ị gakwaghị agbakọnye ọnụọgụgụ ha nʼọnụọgụgụ ndị Izrel.
“Don't register the tribe of Levi; don't count them in the census with the other Israelites.

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.
51 Mgbe ọbụla kwa a ga-ebugharị ya maka njem, ọ bụ ọrụ ha iweda ya. Mgbe ọbụla a ga-eguzo ya ọtọ, ọ bụkwa ọrụ ndị Livayị iguzobe ya ọtọ. Onye ọbụla ọzọ ga-abịa nso ka a ga-egbu.
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.
52 Ebo Izrel ndị ọzọ ga-enwe ebe dị iche nye onwe ha, ebe ha ga-ewu ụlọ ikwu ha. Ha ga-akwụbakwa ọkọlọtọ nke ha, igosi aha ebo ha.
The Israelites are to make camp according to their tribal divisions, each person in their own camp under their own flag.
53 Ndị Livayị ga-ama ụlọ ikwu ha gburugburu ụlọ nzute Ihe Ama ahụ, ka iwe ọkụ m ghara ịbịakwasị nʼahụ nzukọ ụmụ Izrel. Ọ bụ ọrụ ndị Livayị ilekọta ụlọ nzute Ihe Ama ahụ.”
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.”
54 Ya mere, Izrel mere ihe ndị a niile Onyenwe anyị nyere Mosis nʼiwu.
The Israelites did everything that the Lord ordered Moses that they should do.
