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; 23 From thirty years old and upward until fifty years old, shall you number them; all that enter to perform the service, to do the work in the tabernacle of the congregation. 24 This is the service of the families of the Gershonites, to serve and bear burdens: 25 And they shall carry the curtains of the tabernacle, and the tabernacle of the congregation, its covering, and the covering of badgers' skins that is above upon it, and the hanging for the door of the tabernacle of the congregation, 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 all around, and their cords, and all the instruments of their service, and all that is made for them: so shall they serve. 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 you shall appoint to them in charge all their burdens. 28 This is the service of the families of the sons of Gershon in the tabernacle of the congregation: and their charge shall be under the hand of Ithamar, the son of Aaron the priest. 29 As for the sons of Merari, you shall number them by their families, by the house of their fathers; 30 From thirty years old and upward even to fifty years old you shall number them, every one that enters into the service, to do the work of the tabernacle of the congregation. 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 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.
