Numbers 3:27-32

27From Kohath came the family of the Amramites, the family of the Izharites, the family of the Hebronites, and the family of the Uzzielites; these were the families of the Kohathites.

28According to the number of all the males, from a month old and above, there were eight thousand six hundred keeping charge of the sanctuary.

29The families of the children of Kohath were to camp on the south side of the tabernacle.

30And the leader of the fathers’ house of the families of the Kohathites was Elizaphan the son of Uzziel.

31Their duty included the ark, the table, the lampstand, the altars, the utensils of the sanctuary with which they ministered, the screen, and all the work relating to them.

32And Eleazar the son of Aaron the priest was to be chief over the leaders of the Levites, with oversight of those who kept charge of the sanctuary.
