Nomery 1
1 Ary Jehovah niteny tamin’ i Mosesy tany an-efitr’ i Sinay, tao amin’ ny trano-lay fihaonana tamin’ ny andro voalohany tamin’ ny volana faharoa, tamin’ ny taona faharoa taorian’ ny nivoahany avy tany amin’ ny tany Egypta, ka nanao hoe:
On the first day of the second month of the second year after the Israelites had come out of the land of Egypt, the LORD spoke to Moses in the Tent of Meeting in the Wilderness of Sinai. He said:
2 Alao isa ny fiangonana, dia ny Zanak’ Isiraely rehetra, araka ny fokony sy ny fianakaviany avy, ary araka ny anarany tsirairay,
“Take a census of the whole congregation of Israel by their clans and families, listing every man by name, one by one.
3 dia ny lehilahy rehetra amin’ ny Isiraely hatramin’ ny roa-polo taona no ho miakatra, dia izay rehetra azo alefa hanafika; handamina azy araka ny antokony avy ianao sy Arona.
You and Aaron are to number those who are twenty years of age or older by their divisions—everyone who can serve in Israel’s army.
4 Ary aoka hisy lehilahy iray avy isam-pirenena ho namanareo, dia izay samy lohan’ ny fianakaviany avy.
And one man from each tribe, the head of each family, must be there with you.
5 Ary izao no anaran’ ireo lehilahy ho namanareo ireo: Ny avy amin’ i Robena dia Elizora, zanak’ i Sedeora;
These are the names of the men who are to assist you: From the tribe of Reuben, Elizur son of Shedeur;
6 ny avy amin’ i Simeona dia Selomiela, zanak’ i Zorisaday;

11 ny avy amin’ i Benjamina dia Abidana, zanak’ i Gideony;

16 Ireo no voafidin’ ny fiangonana, dia samy lohan’ ny fireneny avy sady mpifehy arivo amin’ ny Isiraely.
These men were appointed from the congregation; they were the leaders of the tribes of their fathers, the heads of the clans of Israel.
17 Ary Mosesy sy Arona naka ireo olona voatonona anarana ireo,
So Moses and Aaron took these men who had been designated by name,
18 dia namory ny fiangonana rehetra tamin’ ny andro voalohany tamin’ ny volana faharoa; ary samy nampanoratra ny anarany avy izy araka ny firazanany, dia araka ny fokony sy ny fianakaviany, ary araka ny anarany tsirairay, hatramin’ ny roa-polo taona no ho miakatra.
and on the first day of the second month they assembled the whole congregation and recorded their ancestry by clans and families, counting one by one the names of those twenty years of age or older,

And all those counted totaled 603,550.
47 Fa ny Levita, araka ny fireneny kosa dia tsy mba nalamina ho isan’ ireo.
The Levites, however, were not numbered along with them by the tribe of their fathers.
48 Fa Jehovah niteny tamin’ i Mosesy ka nanao hoe:
For the LORD had said to Moses:
49 Ny firenen’ ny Levita ihany no aza alamina, ary aza mba alaina isa miaraka amin’ ny Zanak’ Isiraely;
“Do not number the tribe of Levi in the census with the other Israelites.
50 fa tendreo izy hitandrina ny tabernakelin’ ny Vavolombelona sy ny fanaka rehetra ary ny zavatra rehetra izay momba azy; fa izy no hitondra ny tabernakely sy ny zavatra rehetra momba azy sady hanao fanompoam-pivavahana ao; ary manodidina ny tabernakely no hitobiany.
Instead, you are to appoint the Levites over the tabernacle of the Testimony, all its furnishings, and everything in it. They shall carry the tabernacle and all its articles, care for it, and camp around it.
51 Ary raha hafindra ny tabernakely, dia ny Levita no hangorona azy; ary raha haorina ny tabernakely, dia ny Levita no hanangana azy; fa raha olon-kafa no manakaiky, dia hatao maty izy.
Whenever the tabernacle is to move, the Levites are to take it down, and whenever it is to be pitched, the Levites are to set it up. Any outsider who goes near it must be put to death.
52 Dia hitoby ny Zanak’ Isiraely, samy eo amin’ ny tobiny avy, ary samy eo amin’ ny fanevany ary, araka ny antokony.
The Israelites are to camp by their divisions, each man in his own camp and under his own standard.
53 Fa ny Levita kosa hitoby manodidina ny tabernakelin’ ny Vavolombelona, mba tsy hisy fahatezerana hahatratra ny fiangonan’ ny Zanak’ Isiraely; ary ny Levita hitandrina ny anjara raharaha momba ny tabernakelin’ ny Vavolombelona.
But the Levites are to camp around the tabernacle of the Testimony and watch over it, so that no wrath will fall on the congregation of Israel. So the Levites are responsible for the tabernacle of the Testimony.”
54 Dia nataon’ ny Zanak’ Isiraely izany; araka izay rehetra efa nandidian’ i Jehovah an’ i Mosesy no nataony.
Thus the Israelites did everything just as the LORD had commanded Moses.
