5 Q uando o acampamento tiver que mudar, Arão e os seus filhos entrarão e descerão o véu protetor e com ele cobrirão a arca da aliança.

When the camp moves forward, Aaron shall go in, and his sons, and they shall take down the veil of the screen, and cover the ark of the Testimony with it,

6 D epois a cobrirão com couro, estenderão um pano inteiramente azul sobre ela e colocarão as varas no lugar.

and shall put a covering of sealskin on it, and shall spread over it a cloth all of blue, and shall put in its poles.

7 “ Sobre a mesa da Presença eles estenderão um pano azul e colocarão os pratos, os recipientes para incenso, as tigelas e as bacias para as ofertas derramadas, e os pães da Presença, que devem estar sempre sobre ela.

“On the table of show bread they shall spread a blue cloth, and put on it the dishes, the spoons, the bowls, and the cups with which to pour out; and the continual bread shall be on it.

8 S obre tudo isso estenderão um pano vermelho e o cobrirão com couro. Depois colocarão as varas no lugar.

They shall spread on them a scarlet cloth, and cover the same with a covering of sealskin, and shall put in its poles.

Mas não tocarão nas coisas sagradas; se o fizerem, morrerão. São esses os utensílios da Tenda do Encontro que os coatitas carregarão.

“When Aaron and his sons have finished covering the sanctuary, and all the furniture of the sanctuary, as the camp moves forward; after that, the sons of Kohath shall come to carry it: but they shall not touch the sanctuary, lest they die. These things are the burden of the sons of Kohath in the Tent of Meeting.

16 “ Eleazar, filho do sacerdote Arão, ficará encarregado do azeite para a iluminação, do incenso aromático, da oferta costumeira de cereal e do óleo da unção. Ficará encarregado de todo o tabernáculo e de tudo o que nele há, isto é, seus utensílios e seus artigos sagrados”.

“The duty of Eleazar the son of Aaron the priest shall be the oil for the light, the sweet incense, the continual meal offering, and the anointing oil, the requirements of all the tabernacle, and of all that is in it, the sanctuary, and its furnishings.”

17 O Senhor disse ainda a Moisés e a Arão:

Yahweh spoke to Moses and to Aaron, saying,

18 “ Não permitam que o ramo dos clãs coatitas seja eliminado dentre os levitas.

“Don’t cut off the tribe of the families of the Kohathites from among the Levites;

19 M as, para que continuem vivos e não morram quando se aproximarem das coisas santíssimas, Arão e os seus filhos entrarão no santuário e designarão a cada homem a sua tarefa e o que deverá carregar.

but thus do to them, that they may live, and not die, when they approach to the most holy things: Aaron and his sons shall go in, and appoint them everyone to his service and to his burden;

20 O s coatitas não entrarão para ver as coisas sagradas, nem por um breve momento, para que não morram”. Os Gersonitas e as suas Responsabilidades

but they shall not go in to see the sanctuary even for a moment, lest they die.”

21 E o Senhor disse a Moisés:
