3[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 3You and Aaron are to register those who are 20 years old or more by their military divisions--everyone who can serve in Israel's army. |
4[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 4A man from each tribe is to be with you, each one the head of his ancestral house. |

50[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 50Appoint the Levites over the tabernacle of the testimony, all its furnishings, and everything in it. They are to transport the tabernacle and all its articles, take care of it, and camp around it. |
51[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 51Whenever the tabernacle is to move, the Levites are to take it down, and whenever it is to stop at a campsite, the Levites are to set it up. Any unauthorized person who comes near it must be put to death." |
