But the Levites shall pitch round about the tabernacle of testimony, that there be no wrath upon the congregation of the children of Israel: and the Levites shall keep the charge of the tabernacle of testimony.

Verse 53 is found in chapter 1 of Numbers. The Levites are excluded from the military census because they receive a different responsibility: caring for the tabernacle and transporting its furnishings. This separation shows that the sanctuary stands at the center of Israel’s life and that its service requires specific organization. The camp cannot treat the tabernacle as an ordinary object; its presence introduces a dimension of holiness that must be protected.

Aber die Leviten sollen sich um die Wohnung des Zeugnisses her lagern, auf daß nicht ein Zorn über die Gemeinde der Kinder Israel komme; darum sollen die Leviten des Dienstes warten an der Wohnung des Zeugnisses.
Mas los Levitas asentarán las suyas alrededor del tabernáculo del testimonio, y no habrá ira sobre la congregación de los hijos de Israel: y los Levitas tendrán la guarda del tabernáculo del testimonio.
Mais les Lévites camperont autour du tabernacle du témoignage, afin que ma colère n'éclate point sur l'assemblée des enfants d'Israël; et les Lévites auront la garde du tabernacle du témoignage.
Ma accampinsi i Leviti intorno al Tabernacolo della Testimonianza; acciocchè non vi sia ira contro alla raunanza de’ figliuoli d’Israele; e facciano i Leviti la funzione del Tabernacolo della Testimonianza.
Mas os levitas armarão as suas tendas ao redor do tabernáculo do testemunho, para que não haja indignação sobre a congregação dos filhos de Israel, pelo que os levitas terão o cuidado da guarda do tabernáculo do testemunho.
但 利未 人要在法櫃帳幕的四圍安營,免得憤怒臨到 以色列 會眾; 利未 人要負責看守法櫃的帳幕。」
