* But the Levites after the tribe of their fathers were not numbered among them . * For the LORD had spoken unto Moses , saying , * Only thou shalt not number the tribe of Levi , neither take the sum of them among the children of Israel : * But thou shalt appoint the Levites over the tabernacle of testimony , and over all the vessels thereof , and over all things that belong to it : they shall bear the tabernacle , and all the vessels thereof ; and they shall minister unto it , and shall encamp round about the tabernacle .
