But those that encamp before the tabernacle toward the east, [even] before the tabernacle of the congregation eastward, [shall be] Moses, and Aaron and his sons, keeping the charge of the sanctuary for the charge of the children of Israel; and the stranger that cometh nigh shall be put to death.
But those that encamp {H2583} before {H6440} the tabernacle {H4908} toward the east {H6924}, even before {H6440} the tabernacle {H168} of the congregation {H4150} eastward {H4217}, shall be Moses {H4872}, and Aaron {H175} and his sons {H1121}, keeping {H8104} the charge {H4931} of the sanctuary {H4720} for the charge {H4931} of the children {H1121} of Israel {H3478}; and the stranger {H2114} that cometh nigh {H7131} shall be put to death {H4191}.
Those who were to camp in front of the tabernacle on the east, in front of the tent of meeting toward the sunrise, were Moshe, Aharon and his sons who were in charge of the Holy Place. They carried out their responsibility on behalf of the people of Isra'el, and anyone else who involved himself was to be put to death.
Moses, Aaron, and Aaron’s sons were to camp to the east of the tabernacle, toward the sunrise, before the Tent of Meeting. They were to perform the duties of the sanctuary as a service on behalf of the Israelites; but any outsider who approached the sanctuary was to be put to death.
And those that encamp before the tabernacle eastward, before the tent of meeting toward the sunrising, shall be Moses, and Aaron and his sons, keeping the charge of the sanctuary for the charge of the children of Israel; and the stranger that cometh nigh shall be put to death.
