Numbers 4:26-28

Living Bible

²⁶ They are also to carry the drapes covering the courtyard fence, and the curtain across the entrance to the courtyard that surrounds the altar and the Tabernacle. They will also carry the altar, the ropes, and all of the accessories. They are fully responsible for the transportation of these items. ²⁷ Aaron or any of his sons may assign the Gershonites’ tasks to them, ²⁸ but the Gershonites will be directly responsible to Aaron’s son Ithamar.
