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.

The families of the Gershonites shall pitch behind the tabernacle westward.

On the south side {shall be} the standard of the camp of Reuben according to their armies: and the captain of the children of Reuben {shall be} Elizur the son of Shedeur.

But those that encamp before the tabernacle toward the east, {even} before the tabernacle of the congregation eastward, {shall be} Moses, and Aaron and his sons, keeping the charge of the sanctuary for the charge of the children of Israel; and the stranger that cometh nigh shall be put to death.
