Numbers 4:13-15
1599 Geneva Bible
13 Also they shall take away the ashes from the [a]altar, and spread a purple cloth upon it,
14 And shall put upon it all the instruments thereof, which they occupy about it, the censers, the fleshhooks, and the besoms, and the basins, even all the instruments of the altar: and they shall spread upon it a covering of badger’s skins, and put to the bars of it.
15 And when Aaron and his sons have made an end of covering the [b]Sanctuary, and all the instruments of the Sanctuary, at the removing of the host, afterward the sons of Kohath shall come to bear it, but they shall not [c]touch any holy thing lest they die. This is the charge of the sons of Kohath in the Tabernacle of the Congregation.

13 Also they shall take away the ashes from the altar, and spread a purple cloth over it. 14 They shall put on it all its implements with which they minister there—the firepans, the forks, the shovels, the [a]basins, and all the utensils of the altar—and they shall spread on it a covering of badger skins, and insert its poles. 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.
