¹⁰ So you shall appoint Aaron and his sons, ^(A)and they shall attend to their priesthood; ^(B)but the outsider who comes near shall be put to death.”

^38 (A)Moreover those who were to camp before the tabernacle on the east, before the tabernacle of meeting, were Moses, Aaron, and his sons, ^(B)keeping charge of the sanctuary, ^(C)to meet the needs of the children of Israel; but ^(D)the outsider who came near was to be put to death.

¹⁵ And when Aaron and his sons have finished covering the sanctuary and all the furnishings of the sanctuary, when the camp is set to go, then ^(A)the sons of Kohath shall come to carry them; ^(B)but they shall not touch any holy thing, lest they die.

“^(C)These are the things in the tabernacle of meeting which the sons of Kohath are to carry.

¹⁹ but do this in regard to them, that they may live and not die when they approach ^(A)the most holy things: Aaron and his sons shall go in and ^[a]appoint each of them to his service and his task.

^20 (A)But they shall not go in to watch while the holy things are being covered, lest they die.”

^22 (A)Hereafter the children of Israel shall not come near the tabernacle of meeting, ^(B)lest they bear sin and die.
