Dual Panel1Now the Lord <03068> spoke <01696> to <0413> Moses <04872> in the tent <0168> of meeting <04150> in the wilderness <04057> of Sinai <05514> on the first <0259> day of the second <08145> month <02320> of the second <08145> year <08141> after the Israelites departed <03318> from the land <0776> of Egypt <04714>. He said <0559>:
2“Take <05375> a census <07218> of the entire <03605> Israelite <03478> <01121> community <05712> by their clans <04940> and families <01> <01004>, counting <04557> the name <08034> of every <03605> individual <01538> male <02145>.
3You <0859> and Aaron <0175> are to number <06485> all <03605> in Israel <03478> who can serve <03318> in the army <06635>, those who are twenty <06242> years <08141> old <01121> or older <04605>, by their divisions <06635>.
4And to help you there is to be <01961> a man <0376> from each <0376> tribe <04294>, each man <0376> the head <07218> of his family <01> <01004>.
5Now these <0428> are the names <08034> of the men <0376> who <0834> are to help <05975> you: from Reuben <07205>, Elizur <0468> son <01121> of Shedeur <07707>;
6from Simeon <08095>, Shelumiel <08017> son <01121> of Zurishaddai <06701>;

18and they assembled <06950> the entire <03605> community <05712> together on the first <0259> day of the second <08145> month <02320>.

47But the Levites <03881>, according to the tribe <04294> of their fathers <01>, were not <03808> numbered <06485> among <08432> them.
48The Lord <03068> had said <01696> to <0413> Moses <04872>,
49“Only <0389> the tribe <04294> of Levi <03881> you must not <03808> number <06485> or <03808> count <05375> <07218> with the other <08432> Israelites <03478> <01121>.
50But appoint <06485> the <0853> Levites <03881> over <05921> the tabernacle <04908> of the testimony <05715>, over <05921> all <03605> its furnishings <03627> and over <05921> everything <03605> in it <0834>. They <01992> must carry <05375> the <0853> tabernacle <04908> and all <03605> its furnishings <03627>; and they <01992> must attend <08334> to it and camp <02583> around <05439> it <04908>.
51Whenever the tabernacle <04908> is to move <05265>, the Levites <03881> must take it down <03381>, and whenever the tabernacle <04908> is to be reassembled <02583>, the Levites <03881> must set it up <06965>. Any unauthorized person <02114> who approaches <07126> it must be killed <04191>.
52“The Israelites <03478> <01121> will camp <02583> according to their divisions <06635>, each man <0376> in <05921> his camp <04264>, and each man <0376> by <05921> his standard <01714>.
53But the Levites <03881> must camp <02583> around <05439> the tabernacle <04908> of the testimony <05715>, so that the Lord’s anger <07110> will not <03808> fall <01961> on <05921> the Israelite <03478> <01121> community <05712>. The Levites <03881> are responsible <08104> for the care <04931> of the tabernacle <04908> of the testimony <05715>.”
54The Israelites <03478> <01121> did <06213> according to all <03605> that <0834> the Lord <03068> commanded <06680> Moses <04872>– that is what <03651> they did <06213>.
