• Num 4:1-9 : 1 And the LORD spoke to Moses and to Aaron, saying, 2 Take the sum of the sons of Kohath from among the sons of Levi, by their families, by the house of their fathers, 3 From thirty years old and upward, even until fifty years old, all that enter the service, to do the work in the tabernacle of the congregation. 4 This shall be the service of the sons of Kohath in the tabernacle of the congregation, regarding the most holy things: 5 And when the camp moves forward, Aaron shall come, and his sons, and they shall take down the covering veil, and cover the ark of testimony with it: 6 And shall put on it the covering of badgers' skins, and shall spread over it a cloth entirely of blue, and shall put in the poles. 7 And upon the table of showbread they shall spread a cloth of blue, and put on it the dishes, and the spoons, and the bowls, and covers for covering, and the continual bread shall be on it: 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 poles. 9 And they shall take a cloth of blue, and cover the lampstand of the light, and its lamps, and its tongs, and its trays, and all the oil vessels thereof, with which they serve it: 10 And they shall put it and all the vessels within a covering of badgers' skins, and shall put it upon a bar. 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 in the poles. 12 And they shall take all the instruments of ministry, with which they serve 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. 13 And they shall take away the ashes from the altar, and spread a purple cloth on it: 14 And they shall put upon it all the vessels with which they serve about it, even the censers, the forks, the shovels, and the basins, all the vessels of the altar; and they shall spread upon it a covering of badgers' skins, and put in the poles of it. 15 And when Aaron and his sons have finished covering the sanctuary, and all the vessels of the sanctuary, as the camp is to move forward, after that, the sons of Kohath shall come to carry 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. 16 And to the office of Eleazar, the son of Aaron the priest, pertains the oil for the light, and the sweet incense, and the daily grain offering, and the anointing oil, and the oversight of all the tabernacle, and all that is in it, in the sanctuary, and in its vessels. 17 And the LORD spoke to Moses and to Aaron, saying, 18 Do not cut off the tribe of the families of the Kohathites from among the Levites: 19 But do this for them, that they may live and not die when they approach the most holy things: Aaron and his sons shall go in, and appoint every one to his service and to his burden: 20 But they shall not go in to see when the holy things are covered, lest they die. 21 And the LORD spoke to Moses, saying, 22 Take also the sum of the sons of Gershon, by their families, by the house of their fathers;

the boards of the tabernacle, and its bars, and its pillars, and its sockets, 32 And the pillars of the court all around, and their sockets, and their pegs, and their cords, with all their instruments, and with all their service: and by name you shall reckon the instruments of the charge of their burden. 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. 34 And Moses and Aaron and the chiefs of the congregation numbered the sons of the Kohathites by their families, and by the house of their fathers, 35 From thirty years old and upward even to fifty years old, every one that enters into service, for work in the tabernacle of the congregation: 36 And those that were numbered by their families were two thousand seven hundred and fifty. 37 These were they that were numbered of the families of the Kohathites, all that might do service in the tabernacle of the congregation, which Moses and Aaron numbered according to the commandment of the LORD by the hand of Moses. 38 And those that were numbered of the sons of Gershon, by their families, and by the house of their fathers, 39 From thirty years old and upward even to fifty years old, every one that enters into service, for work in the tabernacle of the congregation, 40 Even those that were numbered by their families, by the house of their fathers, were two thousand six hundred and thirty. 41 These are they that were numbered of the families of the sons of Gershon, all that might do service in the tabernacle of the congregation, whom Moses and Aaron numbered according to the commandment of the LORD. 42 And those that were numbered of the families of the sons of Merari, by their families, by the house of their fathers, 43 From thirty years old and upward even to fifty years old, every one that enters into service, for work in the tabernacle of the congregation, 44 Even those that were numbered after their families, were three thousand two hundred. 45 These are they that were numbered of the families of the sons of Merari, whom Moses and Aaron numbered according to the word of the LORD by the hand of Moses. 46 All those that were numbered of the Levites, whom Moses and Aaron and the chiefs of Israel numbered, by their families, and by the house of their fathers, 47 From thirty years old and upward even to fifty years old, every one that came to do the service of ministry, and the service of the burden in the tabernacle of the congregation, 48 Even those that were numbered of them were eight thousand five hundred and eighty. 49 According to the commandment of the LORD they were numbered by the hand of Moses, every one according to his service, and according to his burden: thus they were numbered, as the LORD commanded Moses.
