47Exemption of the Tribe of Levi from the CensusThe descendants of Levi were not counted according to their ancestral houses

49 “Be sure not to number or count the tribe of Levi with the rest of the Israelis.
50 Instead, appoint the descendants of Levi over the Tent of Meeting, all the vessels, and everything in it. They are to carry the tent and all the vessels in it. They are to attend to it and camp around it.
51 Whenever the tent is ready for travel, the descendants of Levi are to take it down. When it’s time to encamp, the descendants of Levi are to set it up. Any unauthorized person who approaches it is to be executed.
52 Then the Israelis are to encamp around the tent, arranged according to their company and the standard of their army.
53 But the descendants of Levi are to encamp on all sides of the Tent of Meeting so that divine wrath won’t fall on the congregation of Israel. The descendants of Levi are to take care of the Tent of Meeting.”
