Then the tabernacle of the congregation shall set forward with the camp of the Levites in the midst of the camp: as they encamp, so shall they set forward, every man in his place by their standards.

Verse 17 is found in chapter 2 of Numbers. The tabernacle and the Levites remain at the center while the other tribes are distributed around them. The chapter concludes by reaffirming that Israel obeyed the pattern established by God. The camp functions as a theological representation: the community is organized spatially around the place where God has established his presence.

Darnach soll die Hütte des Stifts ziehen mit dem Lager der Leviten, mitten unter den Lagern; und wie sie sich lagern, so sollen sie auch ziehen, ein jeglicher an seinem Ort unter seinem Panier.
Luego irá el tabernáculo del testimonio, el campo de los Levitas en medio de los ejércitos: de la manera que asientan el campo, así caminarán, cada uno en su lugar, junto a sus banderas.
Ensuite partira la tente d'assignation, avec le camp des Lévites placé au milieu des autres camps: Ils suivront dans la marche l'ordre dans lequel ils auront campé, chacun dans son rang, selon sa bannière.
Poi movasi il Tabernacolo della convenenza, essendo l’oste de’ Leviti nel mezzo degli altri campi; come sono accampati, così movansi, ciascuno nel suo ordine, secondo le lor bandiere.
Então partirá a tenda da congregação com o exército dos levitas no meio dos exércitos; como armaram as suas tendas, assim marcharão, cada um no seu lugar, segundo as suas bandeiras.
「會幕與 利未 營在諸營中間往前行。他們怎樣安營就怎樣往前行,各按本位,各歸本旗。
