民数记 4
Revised Chinese Union Version (Simplified Script) Shen Edition
哥辖的子孙
4 耶和华吩咐摩西和亚伦说： 2 “你要照宗族、父家计算利未人中哥辖子孙的人口， 3 就是从三十岁到五十岁，凡前来任职，在会幕里事奉的人。 4 这是哥辖子孙在会幕里有关至圣之物的职责。
5 “拔营的时候，亚伦和他儿子要进去，把遮掩的幔子取下，用它来遮盖法柜， 6 又用精美皮料盖在上面，铺上纯蓝色的布，再把杠穿上。 7 他们要用蓝色的布铺在供饼的桌上，将盘、碟，以及浇酒祭的杯和壶摆在上面；经常供的饼也要留在桌上。 8 他们要在这些东西的上面铺上朱红色的布，把精美皮料盖在上面，再把杠穿上。 9 他们要用蓝色的布遮盖供职用的灯台、灯台上的灯盏、灯剪、灯盘，以及所有盛油的器皿； 10 又要用精美皮料把灯台和灯台的一切器具包好，放在抬架上。 11 他们要用蓝色的布铺在金坛上，用精美皮料盖在上面，再把杠穿上。 12 要用蓝色的布把圣所供职用的一切器具包好，再用精美皮料盖在上面，放在抬架上。 13 他们要清理祭坛上的灰，用紫色的布铺在坛上； 14 又要把供职用的一切器具，就是祭坛一切的器具，火盆、肉叉、铲子和盘子，都摆在坛上，铺上精美皮料，再把杠穿上。
15 “拔营的时候，亚伦和他儿子把圣所和圣所一切的器具盖好之后，哥辖的子孙才好来抬，免得他们摸圣物而死；这是哥辖子孙在会幕里所当抬的。
16 “祭司亚伦的儿子以利亚撒所要照管的是点灯的油和香料，以及常献的素祭和膏油。他要照管整个帐幕和其中所有的，以及圣所和圣所的器具。”
17 耶和华吩咐摩西和亚伦说： 18 “你们不可使哥辖人宗族的这一支从利未人中剪除。 19 他们挨近至圣之物的时候，要向他们这样做，使他们存活，不致死亡；亚伦和他的儿子要进去，分派各人当做的，当抬的。 20 但是他们不可进去观看圣所的拆卸[a]，免得死亡。”
革顺的子孙
21 耶和华吩咐摩西说： 22 “你要照父家、宗族计算革顺子孙的人口； 23 从三十岁到五十岁，凡前来任职，在会幕里事奉的，都要数点。 24 这是革顺人宗族的职责，要做的事，要抬的东西如下： 25 他们要抬帐幕的幔子、会幕和会幕的盖、外层精美皮料的盖、会幕的门帘、 26 帐幕和祭坛周围院子的帷幔和门帘、绳子，以及所有需用的器具；一切与这些东西相关的事务，他们要尽职。 27 革顺人的子孙一切的事奉，就是所当抬的，所当做的，都要遵照亚伦和他儿子的指示；他们所当抬的，你们要派他们负责。 28 这是革顺人子孙的宗族在会幕里的事奉；他们要在亚伦祭司的儿子以他玛的手下尽职。”
米拉利的子孙
29 “至于米拉利的子孙，你要照宗族、父家数点他们； 30 从三十岁到五十岁，凡前来任职，在会幕里事奉的，你都要数点。 31 这是他们在会幕里的事奉，他们负责要抬的是帐幕的竖板、横木、柱子和带卯眼的座， 32 院子四围的柱子和其上带卯眼的座、橛子、绳子和一切的器具，与一切相关事奉的物件。你们要按名指定他们要抬的器具。 33 这是米拉利子孙的宗族在会幕里的事奉，都在亚伦祭司的儿子以他玛的手下。”
利未人男丁的调查
34 摩西、亚伦和会众的领袖按照宗族、父家数点哥辖人的子孙； 35 从三十岁到五十岁，凡前来任职，在会幕里事奉的， 36 按照宗族被数的共有二千七百五十名。 37 这是所有在会幕里事奉的哥辖人宗族中被数的，是摩西和亚伦遵照耶和华藉摩西所指示数点的。
38 革顺子孙被数的，按照宗族、父家， 39 从三十岁到五十岁，凡前来任职，在会幕里事奉的， 40 按照宗族、父家被数的共有二千六百三十名。 41 这是所有在会幕里事奉的革顺子孙宗族中被数的，是摩西和亚伦遵照耶和华的指示所数点的。
42 米拉利子孙宗族被数的，按照宗族、父家， 43 从三十岁到五十岁，凡前来任职，在会幕里事奉的， 44 按照宗族被数的共有三千二百名。 45 这是米拉利子孙宗族中被数的，是摩西和亚伦遵照耶和华藉摩西所指示数点的。
46 摩西、亚伦和以色列领袖按照宗族、父家数点利未人， 47 从三十岁到五十岁，凡前来任职，在会幕里事奉，做抬物之工的， 48 他们被数的共有八千五百八十名。 49 按照耶和华藉摩西所指示的来分派，各人都有自己所做的事、所抬的物；他们就这样被数点，正如耶和华所吩咐摩西的。

Numbers 4
New American Standard Bible
Duties of the Kohathites
4 Then the Lord spoke to Moses and to Aaron, saying, 2 “Take a [a]census of the [b]descendants of Kohath from among the sons of Levi, by their families, by their fathers’ households, 3 from (A)thirty years old and upward, even to fifty years old, everyone who can enter the service of ministry to do work in the tent of meeting. 4 This is the work of the [c]descendants of Kohath in the tent of meeting, concerning the most holy things.
5 “When the camp sets out, Aaron and his sons shall go in and take down (B)the veil of the curtain, and cover the (C)ark of the testimony with it; 6 and they shall place a (D)covering of [d]fine leather on it, and spread over it a cloth of pure [e]violet, and insert its carrying poles. 7 Over the table of the bread of the Presence they shall also spread a cloth of violet and put on it the dishes, the pans, the sacrificial bowls, and the jugs for the drink offering; and (E)the continual bread shall be on it. 8 And they shall spread over them a cloth of scarlet material, and cover the same with a covering of fine leather, and they shall insert its carrying poles. 9 Then they shall take a violet cloth and cover the (F)lampstand for the light, (G)along with its lamps, its tongs, its trays, and all its oil containers, by which they attend to it; 10 and they shall put it and all its utensils in a covering of fine leather, and put it on the carrying [f]bars. 11 Over the golden altar they shall spread a violet cloth, and cover it with a covering of fine leather, and they shall insert its carrying poles; 12 and they shall take all the utensils of service, with which they serve in the sanctuary, and put them in a violet cloth and cover them with a covering of fine leather, and put them on the carrying [g]bars. 13 Then they shall clean away the [h]ashes from the (H)altar, and spread a purple cloth over it. 14 They shall also put on it all its utensils by which they serve in connection with it: the firepans, the forks, shovels, and the basins, all the utensils of the altar; and they shall spread a cover of fine leather over it and insert its carrying poles. 15 When Aaron and his sons have finished covering the holy objects and all the furnishings of the sanctuary, when the camp is to set out, after that the sons of Kohath shall come to carry them by the poles, so that they will not touch the holy objects (I)and die. These are the [i]things in the tent of meeting that the sons of Kohath are to carry.
16 “Now the responsibility of Eleazar the son of Aaron the priest is (J)the oil for the light, the (K)fragrant incense, (L)the continual grain offering, and (M)the anointing oil—the responsibility of all the [j]tabernacle and everything that is in it, with the sanctuary and its furnishings.”
17 Then the Lord spoke to Moses and to Aaron, saying, 18 “Do not let the tribe of the families of the Kohathites be eliminated from among the Levites. 19 Rather, do this for them so that they will live and (N)not die when they approach the most holy objects: Aaron and his sons shall go in and assign each of them to his work and to his load; 20 but (O)they shall not come in to see the holy objects even for a moment, or they will die.”
Duties of the Gershonites
21 Then the Lord spoke to Moses, saying, 22 “Take a [k]census of the sons of Gershon [l]also, by their fathers’ households, by their families; 23 from (P)thirty years old and upward to fifty years old you shall [m]count them: all who can enter to perform service, to do the work in the tent of meeting. 24 This is the service of the families of the Gershonites, in serving and in carrying: 25 they shall carry (Q)the curtains of the tabernacle and the tent of meeting with its covering and (R)the covering of fine leather that is on top of it, and the curtain for the entrance of the tent of meeting, 26 and (S)the curtains of the courtyard, the curtain for the entrance of the gate of the courtyard that is around the tabernacle and the altar, and their ropes and all the equipment for their service; and everything that is to be done [n]by them, [o]they shall perform. 27 All the service of the sons of the Gershonites, that is, all their loads and all their work, shall be performed at the [p]command of Aaron and his sons; and you shall assign to them as a duty all their loads. 28 This is the service of the families of the sons of the Gershonites in the tent of meeting; and their duties shall be [q]under the direction of Ithamar the son of Aaron the priest.
Duties of the Merarites
29 “As for the sons of Merari, you shall count them by their families, by their fathers’ households; 30 from (T)thirty years old and upward, even to fifty years old, you shall count them, everyone who can enter the service to do the work of the tent of meeting. 31 Now this is the duty of their loads, for all their service in the tent of meeting: the boards of the tabernacle, its bars, its pillars, and its bases, 32 and the pillars around the courtyard and their bases, their pegs, and their ropes, with all their equipment and with all their service; and you shall assign by names of the men the items [r]that each is to carry. 33 This is the service of the families of the sons of Merari, according to all their service in the tent of meeting, [s]under the direction of Ithamar the son of Aaron the priest.”
34 So Moses, Aaron, and the leaders of the congregation counted the sons of the Kohathites by their families and by their fathers’ households, 35 from (U)thirty years old and upward even to fifty years old, everyone who could enter the service for work in the tent of meeting. 36 Their numbered men by their families were 2,750. 37 These were the numbered men of the Kohathite families, everyone who was serving in the tent of meeting, whom Moses and Aaron counted according to the [t]commandment of the Lord [u]through Moses.
38 And the numbered men of the sons of Gershon by their families and by their fathers’ households, 39 from thirty years old and upward even to fifty years old, everyone who could enter the service for work in the tent of meeting— 40 their numbered men by their families, by their fathers’ households, were 2,630. 41 These were the numbered men of the families of the sons of Gershon, everyone who was serving in the tent of meeting, whom Moses and Aaron counted according to the [v]commandment of the Lord.
42 And the numbered men of the families of the sons of Merari by their families, by their fathers’ households, 43 from (V)thirty years old and upward even to fifty years old, everyone who could enter the service for work in the tent of meeting— 44 their numbered men by their families were 3,200. 45 These were the numbered men of the families of the sons of Merari, whom Moses and Aaron counted according to the [w]commandment of the Lord [x]through Moses.
46 All the numbered men of the Levites, whom Moses, Aaron, and the leaders of Israel counted, by their families and by their fathers’ households, 47 from thirty years old and upward even to fifty years old, everyone who could enter to do the work of service and the work of carrying in the tent of meeting— 48 their numbered men were (W)8,580. 49 According to the [y]commandment of the Lord [z]through Moses, they (X)were counted, everyone by his serving or carrying; so these were his numbered men, just as the Lord had commanded Moses.
