NU-4:1 And the LORD spake unto Moses and unto Aaron, saying,



NU-4:2 Take the sum of the sons of Kohath from among the sons
of Levi, after

their families, by the house of their fathers,

NU-4:3 From thirty years old and upward even until fifty years
old, all that

enter into the host, to do the work in the tabernacle of the
congregation.

NU-4:4 This [shall be] the service of the sons of Kohath in the
tabernacle of

the congregation, [about] the most holy things:

NU-4:5 And when the camp setteth forward, Aaron shall come, and
his sons, and

they shall take down the covering veil, and cover the ark of
testimony with

it:

NU-4:6 And shall put thereon the covering of badgers' skins,
and shall spread

over [it] a cloth wholly of blue, and shall put in the staves
thereof.

NU-4:7 And upon the table of showbread they shall spread a
cloth of blue, and

put thereon the dishes, and the spoons, and the bowls, and
covers to cover

withal: and the continual bread shall be thereon:

NU-4:8 And they shall spread upon them a cloth of scarlet, and
cover the same

with a covering of badgers' skins, and shall put in the staves
thereof.

NU-4:9 And they shall take a cloth of blue, and cover the
candlestick of the

light, and his lamps, and his tongs, and his snuffdishes, and
all the oil

vessels thereof, wherewith they minister unto it:

NU-4:10 And they shall put it and all the vessels thereof
within a covering

of badgers' skins, and shall put [it] upon a bar.

NU-4:11 And upon the golden altar they shall spread a cloth of
blue, and

cover it with a covering of badgers' skins, and shall put to the
staves

thereof:

NU-4:12 And they shall take all the instruments of ministry,
wherewith they

minister in the sanctuary, and put [them] in a cloth of blue,
and cover them

with a covering of badgers' skins, and shall put [them] on a bar:

NU-4:13 And they shall take away the ashes from the altar, and
spread a

purple cloth thereon:

NU-4:14 And they shall put upon it all the vessels thereof,
wherewith they

minister about it, [even] the censers, the fleshhooks, and the
shovels, and

the basins, all the vessels of the altar; and they shall spread
upon it a

covering of badgers' skins, and put to the staves of it.

NU-4:15 And when Aaron and his sons have made an end of
covering the

sanctuary, as the camp is to set forward; after that, the sons
of Kohath shall

come to bear [it]: but they shall not touch [any] holy thing,
lest they die.

These [things are] the burden of the sons of Kohath in the
tabernacle of the

congregation.

NU-4:16 And to the office of Eleazar the son of Aaron the
priest [pertaineth]

the oil for the light, and the sweet incense, and the daily meat
offering, and

the anointing oil, [and] the oversight of all the tabernacle,
and of all that

therein [is], in the sanctuary, and in the vessels thereof.

NU-4:17 And the LORD spake unto Moses and unto Aaron, saying,

NU-4:18 Cut ye not off the tribe of the families of the
Kohathites from among

the Levites:

NU-4:19 But thus do unto them, that they may live, and not die,
when they

approach unto the most holy things: Aaron and his sons shall go
in, and

appoint them every one to his service and to his burden:

NU-4:20 But they shall not go in to see when the holy things
are covered,

lest they die.

NU-4:21 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,

NU-4:22 Take also the sum of the sons of Gershon, throughout
the houses of

their fathers, by their families;

NU-4:23 From thirty years old and upward until fifty years old
shalt thou

number them; all that enter in to perform the service, to do the
work in the

tabernacle of the congregation.

NU-4:24 This [is] the service of the families of the
Gershonites, to serve,

and for burdens:

NU-4:25 And they shall bear the curtains of the tabernacle, and
the

tabernacle of the congregation, his covering, and the covering
of the badgers'

skins that [is] above upon it, and the hanging for the door of
the tabernacle

of the congregation,

NU-4:26 And the hangings of the court, and the hanging for the
door of the

gate of the court, which [is] by the tabernacle and by the altar
round about,

and their cords, and all the instruments of their service, and
all that is

made for them: so shall they serve.

NU-4:27 At the appointment of Aaron and his sons shall be all
the service of

the sons of the Gershonites, in all their burdens, and in all
their service:

and ye shall appoint unto them in charge all their burdens.

Gershon in the

tabernacle of the congregation: and their charge [shall be]
under the hand of

Ithamar the son of Aaron the priest.

NU-4:29 As for the sons of Merari, thou shalt number them after
their

families, by the house of their fathers;

NU-4:30 From thirty years old and upward even unto fifty years
old shalt thou

number them, every one that entereth into the service, to do the
work of the

tabernacle of the congregation.

NU-4:31 And this [is] the charge of their burden, according to
all their

service in the tabernacle of the congregation; the boards of the
tabernacle,

and the bars thereof, and the pillars thereof, and sockets
thereof,

NU-4:32 And the pillars of the court round about, and their
sockets, and

their pins, and their cords, with all their instruments, and
with all their

service: and by name ye shall reckon the instruments of the
charge of their

burden.

NU-4:33 This [is] the service of the families of the sons of
Merari,

according to all their service, in the tabernacle of the
congregation, under

the hand of Ithamar the son of Aaron the priest.

numbered the

sons of the Kohathites after their families, and after the house
of their

fathers,

old, every one

that entereth into the service, for the work in the tabernacle
of the

congregation:

were two
