⁴⁹“Only the tribe of Levi you shall not number, neither shall you take a census of them among the children of Israel;

⁵⁰तर तिमीले लेवीहरूलाई करारको पवित्र पाल र यसका सबै वस्तुहरू हेरचाह गर्नुका निम्ति नियुक्त गर्यौ। तिनीहरूले पवित्र पाल र यसका सबै वस्तुहरू बोक्नु पर्छ। अनि तिनीहरूले पवित्र पालको सेवा गर्नुपर्छ र तिनीहरूले उनीहरूको छाउनी यसकै वरिपरि बनाउनु पर्छ।

⁵⁰but appoint the Levites over the Tabernacle of the Testimony, and over all its furnishings, and over all that belongs to it. They shall carry the tabernacle, and all its furnishings; and they shall take care of it, and shall encamp around it.

⁵¹जब तिमीले पवित्र पाल सार्थ्यो लेवीहरूले यसलाई तल झार्नु पर्थ्यो जब तिमीहरू रोकिने छौ, लेवीहरूले यसलाई स्थापित गर्नु पर्थ्यो। कुनै जो विदेशी नजिक आउँछ त्यसलाई मार्नु पर्छ।

⁵¹When the tabernacle is to move, the Levites shall take it down; and when the tabernacle is to be set up, the Levites shall set it up. The stranger who comes near shall be put to death.

⁵²इस्राएलीहरूले आफ्नो आफ्नो दल समूह भित्र र आफ्नै झण्डाको छेउ छाउमा शिविर बनाऊन्।

⁵²The children of Israel shall pitch their tents, every man by his own camp, and every man by his own standard, according to their divisions.

⁵³तर लेवीहरूले तिनीहरूका छाउनी पवित्र पालकै वरिपरि लगाउन् र यसलाई रक्षा गर्नु पर्छ ताकि करारको पवित्र पाल सुरक्षित रहोस् र परमेश्वरको रिसको प्रकोप इस्राएली समुदायमाथि नपरोस्।”

⁵³But the Levites shall encamp around the Tabernacle of the Testimony, that there may be no wrath on the congregation of the children of Israel: and the Levites shall be responsible for the Tabernacle of the Testimony.”
