47 Fa ny Levita, araka ny fireneny kosa dia tsy mba nalamina ho isan’ ireo.
But the men who were descended from Levi were not counted,
48 Fa Jehovah niteny tamin’ i Mosesy ka nanao hoe:
because Yahweh had said to Moses,
49 Ny firenen’ ny Levita ihany no aza alamina, ary aza mba alaina isa miaraka amin’ ny Zanak’ Isiraely;
“You must not count the tribe of Levi or include them in the total of the people of Israel.
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, assign the Levites to care for the tabernacle of the covenant decrees, and to care for all the furnishings in the tabernacle and for everything in it. The Levites must carry the tabernacle, and they must carry the tabernacle's furnishings. They must care for the tabernacle and make their 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.
When the tabernacle is to move to another place, the Levites must take it down. When the tabernacle is to be set up, the Levites must set it up. Any stranger who comes near the tabernacle must be killed.
52 Dia hitoby ny Zanak’ Isiraely, samy eo amin’ ny tobiny avy, ary samy eo amin’ ny fanevany ary, araka ny antokony.
When the people of Israel set up their tents, each man must do so near the banner that belongs to his armed group.
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.
However, the Levites must set up their tents around the tabernacle of the covenant decrees so that my anger does not come upon the people of Israel. The Levites must care for the tabernacle of the covenant decrees.”
54 Dia nataon’ ny Zanak’ Isiraely izany; araka izay rehetra efa nandidian’ i Jehovah an’ i Mosesy no nataony.
The people of Israel did all these things. They did everything that Yahweh commanded through Moses.
