38 Those encamped before the tabernacle to the east—before the tent of assembly to the east—were Moses and Aaron and his sons; they will keep the responsibility of the sanctuary for the Israelites;[a] and the stranger[b] who approaches will be put to death. 39 All those counted from the Levites whom Moses and Aaron mustered[c] according to the word of Yahweh,[d] according to their clans, every male from one month[e] and above were twenty-two thousand.
