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 'fanya sensa ya wanaume wote wa Israel kutoka kila ukoo, katika familia za baba zao. Wahesabu kwa majina, wahesabu kila mume, kila mwanamume
“Take a census of the whole congregation of Israel by their clans and families, listing every man by name, one by one.
3 kuanzia umri a miaka ishirini na zaidi. Uwahesabu wote wanaoweza kupigana kama askari wa Israel. Wewe na Haruni mtaandika idadi ya wanaume katika makundi ya majeshi yao.

4 Kila mwanamume kwa kila kabila, kichwa cha ukoo, lazima atumike na wewe kama kiongozi wa kabila.
And one man from each tribe, the head of each family, must be there with you.

16 Hawa ndio wanaume waliochaguliwa kutoka kwa watu. Waliongoza kabila za mababu zao. Walikuwa viongozi wa koo katika Israel.
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 Musa na Haruni wakawachukua wale wanaume, waliokuwa wameandikwa kwa majina,
So Moses and Aaron took these men who had been designated by name,
18 na pamoja na wanaume hao waliwakusanya wanume wote katika siku ya kwanza ya mwezi wa pili. Kisha kila mwanume wa miaka ishirini na zaidi alitambua babu zake. Alitakiwa kutaja koo na famila kutoka katika ukoo.
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 Lakini wanaume toka uzao wa Lawi hawakuhesabiwa,
The Levites, however, were not numbered along with them by the tribe of their fathers.
48 Kwa sababu BWANA alimwambia Musa,
For the LORD had said to Moses:
49 “usiwahesabu wale wa kabila la Lawi wala kuwajumuisha kwenye jumla ya watu wa Israeli.
“Do not number the tribe of Levi in the census with the other Israelites.
50 Badala yake, waagize Walawi kuliangalia hema la amri za agano, na kuangalia mapambo ya hema na vyote vilivyomo. Walawi watalazimika kulibeba hema na lazima wayabebe mapambo ya hema. Lazima waliangalie hema na kuyatengeneza mazingira yake. Wataiangalia masikani na kuzitengeneza kambi zinazolizunguka.
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 Kila hema litakapotakiwa kuhamishiwa eneo jingine, Walawi ndio watakaolipeleka pale. Na kila hema litakapotakiwa kusimamishwa, Walawi ndio watakao lisimamisha. Na mgeni yeyote atakayelisogelea hema lazima auawe.
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 Wakati watu wa Israeli watakaposimamisha hema zao, kila mwanaume lazima awe karibu na bango la jeshi lake.
The Israelites are to camp by their divisions, each man in his own camp and under his own standard.
53 Hata hivyo Walawi lazima waweke hema zao kuizunguka hiyo masikani ya amri za agano ili kwamba hasira yangu isije ikawaka juu ya wana wa Israeli. Walawi lazima wailinde hiyo masikani ya amri za agano.”
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 Wana wa Israeli walifanya yote haya. Walifanya yote ambayo BWANA aliagiza kupitia Musa.
Thus the Israelites did everything just as the LORD had commanded Moses.
