48 Kwa sababu BWANA alimwambia Musa,
because Yahweh had said to Moses,
49 “usiwahesabu wale wa kabila la Lawi wala kuwajumuisha kwenye jumla ya watu wa Israeli.
“You must not count the tribe of Levi or include them in the total of the people of Israel.
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, 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 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.
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 Wakati watu wa Israeli watakaposimamisha hema zao, kila mwanaume lazima awe karibu na bango la jeshi lake.
When the people of Israel set up their tents, each man must do so near the banner that belongs to his armed group.
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.”
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 Wana wa Israeli walifanya yote haya. Walifanya yote ambayo BWANA aliagiza kupitia Musa.
The people of Israel did all these things. They did everything that Yahweh commanded through Moses.
