Tongan Bible, Revised West Version
1On the first day of the second month of the second year after the Israelites had come out of the land of Egypt, the LORD spoke to Moses in the Tent of Meeting in the Wilderness of Sinai. He said:
1Pea naʻe folofola ʻa Sihova kia Mōsese ʻi he toafa ʻo Sainai, ʻi he fale fehikitaki ʻoe kakai, ʻi he ʻuluaki ʻaho ʻo hono ua ʻoe māhina, ʻi hono ua taʻu ʻo ʻenau haʻu mei he fonua ko ʻIsipite, ʻo pehē,
2“Take a census of the whole congregation of Israel by their clans and families, listing every man by name, one by one.
2“Mou lau ʻae kakai kotoa pē ʻoe fānau ʻa ʻIsileli, ʻi honau ngaahi faʻahinga ʻo fakatatau mo e fale ʻo ʻenau ngaahi tamai, ʻo lau kotoa pē ʻi honau hingoa, ʻae kakai tangata kotoa pē taki taha;
3You and Aaron are to number those who are twenty years of age or older by their divisions—everyone who can serve in Israel’s army.
3Mei honau taʻu ʻe uofulu tupu, ʻakinautolu kotoa pē ʻoku mālohi ke ʻalu atu ke tau ʻi ʻIsileli: ko koe mo ʻElone ke mo lau ʻakinautolu ʻi heʻenau ngaahi matatau.
4And one man from each tribe, the head of each family, must be there with you.
4Pea ʻe fakataha mo kimoua ha tangata ʻe tokotaha mei he faʻahinga kotoa pē; ko ia taki taha ʻoku ʻeiki ʻi he fale ʻo ʻene ngaahi tamai.”
5These are the names of the men who are to assist you: From the tribe of Reuben, Elizur son of Shedeur;
5¶ Pea ko e ngaahi hingoa eni ʻoe kau tangata ʻe tuʻu mo kimoua; ko ʻIlisua, ko e foha ʻo Setiua ʻi he faʻahinga ʻo Lupeni:

15and from Naphtali, Ahira son of Enan.”
15Ko Heila, ko e foha ʻo ʻEnani ʻi he faʻahinga ʻo Nafitali.
16These men were appointed from the congregation; they were the leaders of the tribes of their fathers, the heads of the clans of Israel.
16Ko kinautolu ni naʻa nau ongoongo lahi ʻi he kakai, ko e houʻeiki ʻi he ngaahi faʻahinga ʻo ʻenau ngaahi tamai, ko e ʻeiki ʻoe ngaahi toko afe ʻi ʻIsileli.
17So Moses and Aaron took these men who had been designated by name,
17¶ Pea naʻe ʻave ʻe Mōsese mo ʻElone ʻae kau tangata ni kuo fakahā honau hingoa:
18and on the first day of the second month they assembled the whole congregation and recorded their ancestry by clans and families, counting one by one the names of those twenty years of age or older,
18Pea naʻa nau fakataha ʻae kakai kotoa pē ʻi he ʻuluaki ʻaho ʻo hono ua ʻoe māhina, pea naʻa nau fakahā honau hokohoko ʻi honau ngaahi faʻahinga, ʻi he fale ʻo ʻenau ngaahi tamai, ʻo fakatatau mo e lau ʻoe ngaahi hingoa taki taha, mei hono uofulu tupu ʻoe taʻu ʻo fai hake.

47The Levites, however, were not numbered along with them by the tribe of their fathers.
47¶ Ka naʻe ʻikai lau ʻiate kinautolu ʻae kau Livai ʻi he faʻahinga ʻo ʻenau ngaahi tamai.
48For the LORD had said to Moses:
48He kuo folofola ʻa Sihova kia Mōsese, ʻo pehē,
49“Do not number the tribe of Levi in the census with the other Israelites.
49“ʻE ʻikai te ke lau ʻae faʻahinga ʻo Livai, pea ʻoua naʻa ke lau ʻakinautolu fakataha mo e fānau ʻa ʻIsileli:
50Instead, you are to appoint the Levites over the tabernacle of the Testimony, all its furnishings, and everything in it. They shall carry the tabernacle and all its articles, care for it, and camp around it.
50Ka ke fakanofo ʻae kau Livai ke pule ki he fale fehikitaki ʻoe fakamoʻoni, pea mo e ngaahi nāunau kotoa pē ʻi ai, pea mo e ngaahi meʻa kotoa pē ʻi ai, pea tenau fua ʻae fale fehikitaki, pea mo hono ngaahi nāunau kotoa pē; pea tenau ngāue ki ai, ʻo nofo takatakai ki he fale fehikitaki.
51Whenever the tabernacle is to move, the Levites are to take it down, and whenever it is to be pitched, the Levites are to set it up. Any outsider who goes near it must be put to death.
51Pea ʻoka ʻalu atu ʻae fale fehikitaki, ʻe vete hifo ia ʻe he kau Livai; pea ʻoka nofo ʻae fale fehikitaki, ʻe fokotuʻu ia ʻe he kau Livai: pea ko e muli ʻoku haʻu ke ofi ki ai ʻe tāmateʻi ia.
52The Israelites are to camp by their divisions, each man in his own camp and under his own standard.
52Pea ko e fānau ʻa ʻIsileli tenau fokotuʻu ʻa honau ngaahi fale fehikitaki, ʻae tangata taki taha ki hono ʻapitanga, pea mo e tangata taki taha ki hono fuka, ʻi honau ngaahi faʻahinga.
53But the Levites are to camp around the tabernacle of the Testimony and watch over it, so that no wrath will fall on the congregation of Israel. So the Levites are responsible for the tabernacle of the Testimony.”
53Ka ʻe nofo ʻae kau Livai ʻo takatakai ʻi he fale fehikitaki ʻoe fakamoʻoni, koeʻuhi ke ʻoua naʻa ai ha houhau ki he fakataha ʻoe fānau ʻa ʻIsileli: pea ʻe tokanga ʻae kau Livai ki he tauhi ʻoe fale fehikitaki ʻoe fakamoʻoni.”
54Thus the Israelites did everything just as the LORD had commanded Moses.
54Pea naʻe fai ʻe he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli ʻo fakatatau ki he meʻa kotoa pē kuo fekau mai ʻe Sihova kia Mōsese; naʻe pehē pe ʻenau fai.
