45So all those who were numbered of the children of Israel by their fathers` houses, from twenty years old and upward, all who were able to go forth to war in Israel;
46even all those who were numbered were six hundred three thousand five hundred fifty.
47But the Levites after the tribe of their fathers were not numbered among them.
49Only the tribe of Levi you shall not number, neither shall you take the sum of them among the children of Israel;
50but appoint you the Levites over the tent of the testimony, and over all the furniture of it, and over all that belongs to it: they shall bear the tent, and all the furniture of it; and they shall minister to it, and shall encamp round about the tent.
51When the tent sets forward, the Levites shall take it down; and when the tent is to be pitched, the Levites shall set it up: and the stranger who comes near shall be put to death.
