Common English Bible

²⁷ To Kohath belonged the clans of the Amramites, Izharites, Hebronites, and Uzzielites. These were the clans of the Kohathites. ²⁸ The number of males over one month old, who would perform duties for the sanctuary, was 8,600. ²⁹ The clans of the Kohathites were to camp on the south side of the dwelling. ³⁰ The chief of the household representing the clans of the Kohathites was Elizaphan, Uzziel’s son. ³¹ They were responsible for the chest, the table, the lampstand, the altars, the equipment of the sanctuary with which they would minister, and the screen—all these furnishings. ³² The head chief over the chiefs of the Levites was Eleazar the son of Aaron the priest. He was supervisor over those performing the duties of the sanctuary.
