Numbers 1:49-51
1599 Geneva Bible
49 Only thou shalt not number the tribe of Levi, neither take the sum of them among the children of Israel.
50 But thou shalt appoint the Levites over the Tabernacle of the Testimony, and over all the instruments thereof, and over all things that belong to it: they shall bear the Tabernacle, and all the instruments thereof, and shall minister in it, and shall [a]dwell round about the Tabernacle.
51 And when the Tabernacle goeth forth, the Levites shall take it down: and when the Tabernacle is to be pitched, the Levites shall set it up: for the [b]stranger that cometh near, shall be slain.
