*
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 .
*
And when the tabernacle setteth forward ,
the Levites shall take it down :
and when the tabernacle is to be pitched ,
the Levites shall set it up :
and the stranger that cometh nigh shall be put to death .
*
And the children of Israel shall pitch their tents ,
every man by his own camp ,
and every man by his own standard ,
throughout their hosts .
*
But the Levites shall pitch round about the tabernacle of testimony ,
that there be no wrath upon the congregation of the children of Israel :
and the Levites shall keep the charge of the tabernacle of testimony .
*
And the children of Israel did according to all that the LORD commanded Moses ,
so did they .
