49 “ Only the family of Levi should not be numbered. Do not add their number among the sons of Israel.

Somente não contarás a tribo de Levi, nem tomarás a soma deles entre os filhos de Israel;

50 B ut have the Levites take care of the meeting tent of the Law, and all that is in it, and all that belongs to it. They will carry the meeting tent and all that goes in it. They will take care of it, and set up their tents around it.

mas tu põe os levitas sobre o tabernáculo do testemunho, sobre todos os seus móveis, e sobre tudo o que lhe pertence. Eles levarão o tabernáculo e todos os seus móveis, e o administrarão; e acampar-se-ão ao redor do tabernáculo.

51 W hen the meeting tent is to be moved, the Levites will take it down. When the meeting tent is brought to a place to stay, the Levites will set it up. If anyone else comes near, he must be put to death.

Quando o tabernáculo houver de partir, os levitas o desarmarão; e quando o tabernáculo se houver de assentar, os levitas o armarão; e o estranho que se chegar será morto.

52 T he people of Israel will set up their tents by their own groups and armies, each man by his own flag.

Os filhos de Israel acampar-se-ão, cada um no seu arraial, e cada um junto ao seu estandarte, segundo os seus exércitos.

53 B ut the Levites will set up their tents around the meeting tent of the Law. Then no anger will come upon the people of Israel. The Levites must take care of the meeting tent of the Law.”

Mas os levitas acampar-se-ão ao redor do tabernáculo do testemunho, para que não suceda acender-se ira contra a congregação dos filhos de Israel; pelo que os levitas terão o cuidado da guarda do tabernáculo do testemunho.

54 S o the people of Israel did this. They did everything the Lord had told Moses.

Assim fizeram os filhos de Israel; conforme tudo o que o Senhor ordenara a Moisés, assim o fizeram.
