⁴⁹Qabiilka reer Laawi oo keliya waa inaadan tirin, oo reer binu Israa'iilna waa inaadan tiradooda ku dhex darin,

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

⁵⁰laakiinse reer Laawi waxaad u doorataa inay u taliyaan taambuugga maragga, iyo alaabtiisa oo dhan, iyo waxa uu isagu leeyahay oo dhan. Iyagu waa inay taambuugga iyo alaabtiisa oo dhan sidaan, oo ay u adeegaan, oo ay taambuugga hareerihiisa degaan.

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.

⁵¹Oo markii taambuuggu hor u dhaqaaqayo reer Laawi waa inay furaan, markii taambuugga la dhisayona reer Laawi waa inay dhisaan, oo shisheeyihii u soo dhowaadana waa in la dilaa.

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.

⁵²Oo reer binu Israa'iilna markay teendhooyinkooda dhistaan, nin waluba tiisa xeradiisa ha ka dhisto, oo nin waluba calankiisa ha uga ag dhisto sida ciidammadoodu yihiin.

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.

⁵³Laakiinse reer Laawi waa inay teendhooyinkooda ka dhistaan taambuugga maragga hareerihiisa, si aan cadho ugu soo degin shirka reer binu Israa'iil; oo reer Laawi waa inay u taliyaan taambuugga maragga.Oo reer binu Israa'iil sidaasay yeeleen; oo sidii Rabbigu Muuse ku amray oo dhan ayay wada yeeleen.

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.”

⁵⁴Oo reer binu Israa'iil sidaasay yeeleen; oo sidii Rabbigu Muuse ku amray oo dhan ayay wada yeeleen.

⁵⁴Thus the children of Israel did. According to all that Yahweh commanded Moses, so they did.
