Numbers 4:5-13

New American Standard Bible

⁵ “When the camp sets out, Aaron and his sons shall go in and take down ^(A)the veil of the curtain, and cover the ^(B)ark of the testimony with it; ⁶ and they shall place a ^(C)covering of ^[a]fine leather on it, and spread over it a cloth of pure ^[b]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 ^(D)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 ^(E)lampstand for the light, ^(F)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 ^[c]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 ^[d]bars. ¹³ Then they shall clean away the ^[e]ashes from the ^(G)altar, and spread a purple cloth over it.
