3From thirtyH7970 yearsH8141 oldH1121 and upwardH4605 even until fiftyH2572 yearsH8141 oldH1121, all that enterH935 into the hostH6635, to doH6213 the workH4399 in the tabernacleH168 of the congregationH4150.

4This shall be the serviceH5656 of the sonsH1121 of KohathH6955 in the tabernacleH168 of the congregationH4150, about the mostH6944 holy thingsH6944:

5And when the campH4264 moveth forwardH5265, AaronH175 shall comeH935, and his sonsH1121, and they shall take downH3381 the coveringH4539 veilH6532, and coverH3680 the arkH727 of testimonyH5715 with it:

6And shall putH5414 on it the coveringH3681 of badgersH8476’ skinsH5785, and shall spreadH6566 overH4605 it a clothH899 whollyH3632 of blueH8504, and shall putH7760 in the staffsH905 of it.

7And upon the tableH7979 of showbreadH6440 they shall spreadH6566 a clothH899 of blueH8504, and putH5414 on it the dishesH7086, and the spoonsH3709, and the bowlsH4518, and coversH7184 to cover withH5262: and the continualH8548 breadH3899 shall be on it:1

8And they shall spreadH6566 upon them a clothH899 of scarletH8438H8144, and coverH3680 the same with a coveringH4372 of badgersH8476’ skinsH5785, and shall putH7760 in the staffsH905 of it.

9And they shall takeH3947 a clothH899 of blueH8504, and coverH3680 the lampstandH4501 of the lightH3974, and its lampsH5216, and its tongsH4457, and its snuffdishesH4289, and all its oilH8081 vesselsH3627, by which they serveH8334 it:

10And they shall putH5414 it and all its vesselsH3627 within a coveringH4372 of badgersH8476’ skinsH5785, and shall putH5414 it upon a barH4132.

11And upon the goldenH2091 altarH4196 they shall spreadH6566 a clothH899 of blueH8504, and coverH3680 it with a coveringH4372 of badgersH8476’ skinsH5785, and shall putH7760 to it its staffsH905:

12And they shall takeH3947 all the instrumentsH3627 of ministryH8335, by which they ministerH8334 in the sanctuaryH6944, and putH5414 them in a clothH899 of blueH8504, and coverH3680 them with a coveringH4372 of badgersH8476’ skinsH5785, and shall putH5414 them on a barH4132:

13And they shall take away the ashesH1878 from the altarH4196, and spreadH6566 a purpleH713 clothH899 over it:

14And they shall putH5414 upon it all its vesselsH3627, by which they ministerH8334 about it, even the censersH4289, the fleshhooksH4207, and the shovelsH3257, and the basinsH4219, all the vesselsH3627 of the altarH4196; and they shall spreadH6566 upon it a coveringH3681 of badgersH8476’ skinsH5785, and putH7760 to it its staffsH905.2

15And when AaronH175 and his sonsH1121 have finishedH3615 coveringH3680 the sanctuaryH6944, and all the vesselsH3627 of the sanctuaryH6944, as the campH4264 is to move forwardH5265; afterH310 that, the sonsH1121 of KohathH6955 shall comeH935 to bearH5375 it : but they shall not touchH5060 any holy thingH6944, lest they dieH4191. These things are the burdenH4853 of the sonsH1121 of KohathH6955 in the tabernacleH168 of the congregationH4150.
