Numbers 4:15-20

15When AaronH175 and his sonsH1121 have finishedH3615 coveringH3680 the holy objectsH6944 and allH3605 their equipmentH3627, as soon as the campH4264H310H3651 is ready to moveH5265, the KohathitesH1121H6955 shall comeH935 and do the carryingH5375. But they must notH3808 touchH5060H413 the holy objectsH6944, or they will dieH4191. TheseH428 are the transportation dutiesH4853 of the KohathitesH1121H6955 regarding the TentH168 of MeetingH4150.

16EleazarH499 sonH1121 of AaronH175 the priestH3548 shall overseeH6486 the oilH8081 for the lightH3974, the fragrantH5561 incenseH7004, the dailyH8548 grain offeringH4503, and the anointingH4888 oilH8081. He has oversightH6486 of the entireH3605 tabernacleH4908 and everythingH3605 in it, including the holy objectsH6944 and their utensilsH3627.”

17Then the LORDH3068 saidH1696 toH413 MosesH4872H413 and AaronH175H559, 18“Do notH408 allow the KohathiteH6956 tribalH7626 clansH4940 to be cut offH3772 from amongH8432 the LevitesH3881. 19In order that they may liveH2421 and notH3808 dieH4191 when they come nearH5066 the mostH6944 holy thingsH6944, doH6213 thisH2063 for them: AaronH175 and his sonsH1121 are to go inH935 and assignH7760 each manH376H5921 his taskH5656H413 and what he is to carryH4853. 20But the Kohathites are notH3808 to go inH935 and lookH7200 at the holy objectsH6944, even for a momentH1104, or they will dieH4191.”
