Numbers 1:52-54

Expanded Bible

⁵² The ·Israelites [^Lsons/^Tchildren of Israel] will make their camps in separate divisions, each family near its ·flag [standard]. ⁵³ But the Levites must make their camp around the ·Holy Tent [Tabernacle] of the ·Agreement [Testimony; Treaty; Covenant; 1:50] so that I will not be angry with the ·Israelites [community/ congregation/assembly of the sons/^Tchildren of Israel]. The Levites will take care of the ·Holy Tent [Tabernacle] of the ·Agreement [Testimony; Treaty; Covenant; 1:50].”

⁵⁴ So the Israelites did everything just as the Lord commanded Moses.
