Numbers 1:52 BBE

⁵⁰  But to them you are to give the care of the Tent of meeting with its vessels and everything in it: they are to take up the Tent, and be responsible for everything to do with it, and put up their tents round it.

⁵¹  And when the Tent of meeting goes forward, the Levites are to take it down; and when it is to be put up, they are to do it: any strange person who comes near it is to be put to death.

⁵²  The children of Israel are to put up their tents, every man in his tent-circle round his flag.

⁵³  But the tents of the Levites are to be round the Tent of meeting, so that wrath may not come on the children of Israel: the Tent of meeting is to be in the care of the Levites.

⁵⁴  So the children of Israel did as the Lord had given orders to Moses.
