53 But ⁿthe Levites shall camp around the tabernacle of the testimony, ^oso that there may be no wrath on the congregation of the people of Israel. And ^pthe Levites shall keep guard over the tabernacle of the testimony.”

38 Those who were to camp before the tabernacle ^qon the east, before the tent of meeting toward the sunrise, were Moses and Aaron and his sons, ^rguarding the sanctuary itself, to protect¹ the people of Israel. And ^sany outsider who came near was to be put to death.
