Note: This view shows ‘verses’ which are not natural language units and hence sometimes only part of a sentence will be visible. Normally the OET discourages the reading of individual ‘verses’, but this view is only designed for doing comparisons of different translations. Click on any Bible version abbreviation down the left-hand side to see the verse in more of its context. The OET segments on this page are still very early looks into the unfinished texts of the Open English Translation of the Bible. Please double-check these texts in advance before using in public.

ClVg Numeravit Moyses, ut præceperat Dominus,
(Numeravit Moyses, as had_ordered Master, )
3:14-39 This first phase of a two-stage registration of the tribe of Levi (see 4:34-49 for stage two) summarized each family group’s special responsibilities (described in greater detail in 4:1-33). This numbering was not linked with military duties, so it enrolled male Levites from the age of one month (3:40-41).
• Three family groups are descended from Gershon, Kohath, and Merari, the three sons of Levi. These clans (often called the Gershonites, Kohathites, and Merarites) later inherited the “cities of refuge” (Josh 21) and filled various important posts in the Jerusalem Temple (2 Chr 29:3-17).

If it would be helpful to your readers, you could combine the phrases and express the emphasis in another way. Alternate translation: “exactly in accordance with what Yahweh had commanded”
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy
פִּ֣י

Here, mouth refers to what Yahweh said, which a person would do by using his mouth. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “the speech of”
Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive
צֻוָּֽה
commanded
If your language does not use the passive form in this way, you can express the idea in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. Alternate translation: “Yahweh commanded him”
