1
Then the LORD
spoke
to Moses
and to Aaron,
saying,
2
"Take
a census
of the descendants
of Kohath
from among
the sons
of Levi,
by their families,
by their fathers'
households,
3
from thirty
years
and upward,
even to fifty
years
old,
all
who enter
the service
to do
the work
in the tent
of meeting.
4
"This
is the work
of the descendants
of Kohath
in the tent
of meeting,
concerning the most
holy things.
5
"When the camp
sets
out, Aaron
and his sons
shall go
in and they shall take down
the veil
of the screen
and cover
the ark
of the testimony
with it;
6
and they shall lay
a c
over
ing
of porpoise
skin
on it, and shall spread
over
it a cloth
of pure
blue,
and shall insert
its poles.
7
"Over
the table
of the
bread
of the Presence
they shall also spread
a cloth
of blue
and put
on it the dishes
and the pans
and the sacrificial bowls
and the jars
for the drink offering,
and the continual
bread
shall be on it.
8
"They shall spread
over
them a cloth
of scarlet
material, and c
over
the same
with a c
over
ing
of porpoise
skin,
and they shall insert
its poles.
9
"Then they shall take
a blue
cloth
and cover
the lampstand
for the light,
along with its lamps
and its snuffers,
and its trays
and all
its oil
vessels,
by which
they serve
it;
10
and they shall put
it and all
its utensils
in a covering
of porpoise
skin,
and shall put
it on the carrying bars.
11
"Over
the golden
altar
they shall spread
a blue
cloth
and cover
it with a covering
of porpoise
skin,
and shall insert
its poles;
12
and they sh
all
take
all
the utensils
of service,
with which
they serve
in the sanctuary,
and put
them in a blue
cloth
and cover
them with a covering
of porpoise
skin,
and put
them on the carrying bars.
13
"Then they shall take away the ashes
from the altar,
and spread
a purple
cloth
over
it.
14
"They sh
all
also put
on it
all
its utensils
by which
they serve
in connection
with it: the firepans,
the forks
and shovels
and the basins,
all
the utensils
of the altar;
and they sh
all
spread
a c
over
of porpoise
skin
over
it and insert
its poles.
15
"When Aaron
and his sons
have finished
covering
the holy
objects and all
the furnishings
of the sanctuary,
when the camp
is to set
out, after
that the sons
of Kohath
shall come
to carry
them, so that they will not touch
the holy
objects and die.
These
are the things
in the tent
of meeting
which the sons
of Kohath
are
to carry
.
16
"The responsibility
of Eleazar
the son
of Aaron
the priest
is the oil
for the light
and the fragrant
incense
and the continual
grain offering
and the anointing
oil--
the responsibility
of all
the tabernacle
and
of all
that is in it, with the sanctuary
and its furnishings."
17
Then the LORD
spoke
to Moses
and to Aaron,
saying,
18
"Do not let the tribe
of the families
of the Kohathites
be cut off
from among
the Levites.
19
"But do
this
to them that they may live
and not die
when they approach
the most
holy
objects: Aaron
and his sons
shall go
in and assign
each
of them to his work
and to his load;
20
but they shall not go
in to see
the holy
objects even for a moment,
or they will die."
21
Then the LORD
spoke
to Moses,
saying,
22
"Take
a census
of the sons
of Gershon
also,
by their fathers'
households,
by their families;
23
from thirty
years
and upward
to fifty
years
old,
you shall number
them; all
who enter
to perform
the service
to do
the work
in the tent
of meeting.
24
"This
is the service
of the families
of the Gershonites,
in serving
and in carrying:
25
they shall carry
the curtains
of the tabernacle
and the tent
of meeting
with its covering
and the covering
of porpoise skin
that is on top
of it, and the screen
for the doorway
of the tent
of meeting
,
26
and the hangings
of the court
,
and the screen
for the doorway
of the gate
of the court
which
is around
the tabernacle
and the altar,
and their cords
and all
the equipment
for their service;
and all
that is to be done,
they shall perform.
27
"All
the service
of the sons
of the Gershonites,
in
all
their loads
and
in
all
their work,
sh
all
be performed at the command
of Aaron
and his sons;
and you sh
all
assign
to them as a duty
all
their loads
.
28
"This
is the service
of the families
of
the son
s
of the Gershonites
in the tent
of meeting,
and their duties
shall be under the direction
of Ithamar
the son
of Aaron
the priest.
29
"As for the sons
of Merari,
you shall number
them by their families,
by their fathers'
households;
30
from thirty
years
and upward
even to fifty
years
old,
you shall number
them, everyone
who enters
the service
to do
the work
of the tent
of meeting.
31
"Now this
is the duty
of their loads,
for all
their service
in the tent
of meeting:
the boards
of the tabernacle
and its bars
and its pillars
and its sockets,
32
and the pillars
around
the court
and their sockets
and their pegs
and their cords,
with all
their equipment
and
with all
their service;
and you shall assign
each man by name
the items
he is to carry.
33
"This
is the service
of the families
of
the son
s
of Merari,
according to all
their service
in the tent
of meeting,
under the direction
of Ithamar
the son
of Aaron
the priest."
34
So Moses
and Aaron
and the leaders
of the congregation
numbered
the sons
of the Kohathites
by their families
and by their fathers'
households,
35
from thirty
years
and upward
even to fifty
years
old,
everyone
who entered
the service
for work
in the tent
of meeting.
36
Their numbered
men by their families
were 2,750.
37
These
are the
numbered
men of the Kohathite
families,
everyone
who was serving
in the tent
of meeting,
whom
Moses
and Aaron
numbered
according
to the commandment
of the LORD
through
Moses
.
38
The numbered
men of the sons
of Gershon
by their families
and by their fathers'
households,
39
from thirty
years
and upward
even to fifty
years
old,
everyone
who entered
the service
for work
in the tent
of meeting.
40
Their numbered
men by their families,
by their fathers'
households,
were 2,630.
41
These
are the
numbered
men of the families
of the sons
of Gershon,
everyone
who was serving
in the tent
of meeting,
whom
Moses
and Aaron
numbered
according
to the commandment
of the LORD.
42
The numbered
men of the families
of the sons
of Merari
by their families,
by their fathers'
households,
43
from thirty
years
and upward
even to fifty
years
old,
everyone
who entered
the service
for work
in the tent
of meeting.
44
Their numbered
men by their families
were 3,200.
45
These
are the
numbered
men of the families
of the sons
of Merari,
whom
Moses
and Aaron
numbered
according
to the commandment
of the LORD
through
Moses
.
46
All
the numbered
men of the Levites,
whom
Moses
and Aaron
and the leaders
of Israel
numbered,
by their families
and by their fathers'
households,
47
from thirty
years
and upward
even to fifty
years
old,
everyone
who could enter
to do the work
of service
and the work
of carrying
in the tent
of meeting.
48
Their numbered
men were 8,580.
49
According
to the commandment
of the LORD
through
Moses,
they were numbered,
everyone
by his serving
or carrying;
thus these were his numbered
men, just
as the LORD
had commanded
Moses.
