4:1 The
LORD
spoke
to
Moses
and
Aaron,
saying,
4:2 "Take
a
census
of
the
sons
of
Kohath
from
among
the
sons
of
Levi,
by
their
clans
and
their
fathers'
houses,
4:3 from
thirty
years
old
up
to
fifty
years
old,
all
who
can
come
on
duty,
to
do
the
work
in
the
tent
of
meeting.
4:4 This
is
the
service
of
the
sons
of
Kohath
in
the
tent
of
meeting:
the
most
holy
things.
4:5 When
the
camp
is
to
set
out,
Aaron
and
his
sons
shall
go
in
and
take
down
the
veil
of
the
screen
and
cover
the
ark
of
the
testimony
with
it.
4:6 Then
they
shall
put
on
it
a
covering
of
goatskin
and
spread
on
top
of
that
a
cloth
all
of
blue,
and
shall
put
in
its
poles.
4:7 And
over
the
table
of
the
bread
of
the
Presence
they
shall
spread
a
cloth
of
blue
and
put
on
it
the
plates,
the
dishes
for
incense,
the
bowls,
and
the
flagons
for
the
drink
offering;
the
regular
showbread
also
shall
be
on
it.
4:8 Then
they
shall
spread
over
them
a
cloth
of
scarlet
and
cover
the
same
with
a
covering
of
goatskin,
and
shall
put
in
its
poles.
4:9 And
they
shall
take
a
cloth
of
blue
and
cover
the
lampstand
for
the
light,
with
its
lamps,
its
tongs,
its
trays,
and
all
the
vessels
for
oil
with
which
it
is
supplied.
4:10 And
they
shall
put
it
with
all
its
utensils
in
a
covering
of
goatskin
and
put
it
on
the
carrying
frame.
4:11 And
over
the
golden
altar
they
shall
spread
a
cloth
of
blue
and
cover
it
with
a
covering
of
goatskin,
and
shall
put
in
its
poles.
4:12 And
they
shall
take
all
the
vessels
of
the
service
that
are
used
in
the
sanctuary
and
put
them
in
a
cloth
of
blue
and
cover
them
with
a
covering
of
goatskin
and
put
them
on
the
carrying
frame.
4:13 And
they
shall
take
away
the
ashes
from
the
altar
and
spread
a
purple
cloth
over
it.
4:14 And
they
shall
put
on
it
all
the
utensils
of
the
altar,
which
are
used
for
the
service
there,
the
fire
pans,
the
forks,
the
shovels,
and
the
basins,
all
the
utensils
of
the
altar;
and
they
shall
spread
on
it
a
covering
of
goatskin,
and
shall
put
in
its
poles.
4:15 And
when
Aaron
and
his
sons
have
finished
covering
the
sanctuary
and
all
the
furnishings
of
the
sanctuary,
as
the
camp
sets
out,
after
that
the
sons
of
Kohath
shall
come
to
carry
these,
but
they
must
not
touch
the
holy
things,
lest
they
die.
These
are
the
things
of
the
tent
of
meeting
that
the
sons
of
Kohath
are
to
carry.
4:16 "And
Eleazar
the
son
of
Aaron
the
priest
shall
have
charge
of
the
oil
for
the
light,
the
fragrant
incense,
the
regular
grain
offering,
and
the
anointing
oil,
with
the
oversight
of
the
whole
tabernacle
and
all
that
is
in
it,
of
the
sanctuary
and
its
vessels."
4:17 The
LORD
spoke
to
Moses
and
Aaron,
saying,
4:18 "Let
not
the
tribe
of
the
clans
of
the
Kohathites
be
destroyed
from
among
the
Levites,
4:19 but
deal
thus
with
them,
that
they
may
live
and
not
die
when
they
come
near
to
the
most
holy
things:
Aaron
and
his
sons
shall
go
in
and
appoint
them
each
to
his
task
and
to
his
burden,
4:20 but
they
shall
not
go
in
to
look
on
the
holy
things
even
for
a
moment,
lest
they
die."
4:21 The
LORD
spoke
to
Moses,
saying,
4:22 "Take
a
census
of
the
sons
of
Gershon
also,
by
their
fathers'
houses
and
by
their
clans.
4:23 From
thirty
years
old
up
to
fifty
years
old,
you
shall
list
them,
all
who
can
come
to
do
duty,
to
do
service
in
the
tent
of
meeting.
4:24 This
is
the
service
of
the
clans
of
the
Gershonites,
in
serving
and
bearing
burdens:
4:25 they
shall
carry
the
curtains
of
the
tabernacle
and
the
tent
of
meeting
with
its
covering
and
the
covering
of
goatskin
that
is
on
top
of
it
and
the
screen
for
the
entrance
of
the
tent
of
meeting
4:26 and
the
hangings
of
the
court
and
the
screen
for
the
entrance
of
the
gate
of
the
court
that
is
around
the
tabernacle
and
the
altar,
and
their
cords
and
all
the
equipment
for
their
service.
And
they
shall
do
all
that
needs
to
be
done
with
regard
to
them.
4:27 All
the
service
of
the
sons
of
the
Gershonites
shall
be
at
the
command
of
Aaron
and
his
sons,
in
all
that
they
are
to
carry
and
in
all
that
they
have
to
do.
And
you
shall
assign
to
their
charge
all
that
they
are
to
carry.
4:28 This
is
the
service
of
the
clans
of
the
sons
of
the
Gershonites
in
the
tent
of
meeting,
and

the

the

4:29 "As
for
the
sons
of
Merari,
you
shall
list
them
by
their
clans
and
their
fathers'
houses.
4:30 From
thirty
years
old
up

old,
you
shall
list
them,
everyone
who
can
come
on
duty,
to
do
the
service
of
the
tent
of
meeting.
4:31 And
this
is
what
they
are
charged
to
carry,
as
the
whole
of
their

in
the
tent
of
meeting:

around
the
court
with

And
you

by
name
the
objects
that
they
are
required
to
carry.
4:33 This
