| 52 | The children of Israel shall pitch their tents, every man by his own camp, and every man by his own standard, according to their divisions. | The people of Israel shall pitch their tents by their companies, each man in his own camp and each man by his own standard. | The Israelites are to set up their tents by divisions, each of them in their own camp under their standard. | |

The Levites are to be responsible for the care of the tabernacle of the covenant law.” | |
