Numbers 4
Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition
4 And the Lord spoke to Moses, and Aaron, saying:
2 Take the sum of the sons of Caath from the midst of the Levites, by their houses and families.
3 From thirty years old and upward, to fifty years old, of all that go in to stand and to minister in the tabernacle of the covenant.
4 This is the service of the sons of Caath:
5 When the camp is to set forward, Aaron and his sons shall go into the tabernacle of the covenant, and the holy of holies, and shall take down the veil that hangeth before the door, and shall wrap up the ark of the testimony in it,
6 And shall cover it again with a cover of violet skins, and shall spread over it a cloth all of violet, and shall put in the bars.
7 They shall wrap up also the table of proposition in a cloth of violet, and shall put with it the censers and little mortars, the cups and bowls to pour out the libations: the leaves shall be always on it:
8 And they shall spread over it a cloth of scarlet, which again they shall cover with a covering of violet skins, and shall put in the bars.
9 They shall take also a cloth of violet wherewith they shall cover the candlestick with the lamps and tongs thereof and the snuffers and all the oil vessels, which are necessary for the dressing of the lamps:
10 And over all they shall put a cover of violet skins and put in the bars.
11 And they shall wrap up the golden altar also in a cloth of violet, and shall spread over it a cover of violet skins, and put in the bars.
12 All the vessels wherewith they minister in the sanctuary, they shall wrap up in a cloth of violet, and shall spread over it a cover of violet skins, and put in the bars.
13 They shall cleanse the altar also from the ashes, and shall wrap it up in a purple cloth,
14 And shall put it with all the vessels that they use in the ministry thereof, that is to say, firepans, fleshhooks and forks, pothooks and shovels. They shall cover all the vessels of the altar together with a covering of violet skins, and shall put in the bars.
15 And when Aaron and his sons have wrapped up the sanctuary and the vessels thereof at the removing of the camp, then shall the sons of Caath enter in to carry the things wrapped up: and they shall not touch the vessels of the sanctuary, lest they die. These are the burdens of the sons of Caath: in the tabernacle of the covenant:
16 And over them shall be Eleazar the son of Aaron the priest, to whose charge pertaineth the oil to dress the lamps, and the sweet incense, and the sacrifice, that is always offered, and the oil of unction, and whatsoever pertaineth to the service of the tabernacle, and of all the vessels that are in the sanctuary.
17 And the Lord spoke to Moses and Aaron, saying:
18 Destroy not the people of Caath from the midst of the Levites:
19 But do this to them, that they may live, and not die, by touching the holies of holies. Aaron and his sons shall go in, and they shall appoint every man his work, and shall divide the burdens that every man is to carry.
20 Let not others by any curiosity see the things that are in the sanctuary before they be wrapped up, otherwise they shall die.
21 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
22 Take the sum of the soils of Gerson also by their houses and families and kindreds.
23 From thirty years old and upward, unto fifty years old. Number them all that go in and minister in the tabernacle of the covenant.
24 This is the office of the family of the Gersonites:
25 To carry the curtains of the tabernacle and the roof of the covenant, the other covering, and the violet covering over all, and the hanging that hangeth in the entry of the tabernacle of the covenant,
26 The curtains of the court, and the veil in the entry that is before the tabernacle. All things that pertain to the altar, the cords and the vessels of the ministry,
27 The sons of Gerson shall carry, by the commandment of Aaron and his sons: and each man shall know to what burden he must be assigned.
28 This is the service of the family of the Gersonites in the tabernacle of the covenant, and they shall be under the hand of Ithamar the son of Aaron the priest.
29 Thou shalt reckon up the sons of Merari also by the families and houses of their fathers,
30 From thirty years old and upward, unto fifty years old, all that go in to the office of their ministry, and to the service of the covenant of the testimony.
31 These are their burdens: They shall carry the boards of the tabernacle and the bars thereof, the pillars and their sockets,
32 The pillars also of the court round about, with their sockets and pins and cords. They shall receive by account all the vessels and furniture, and so shall carry them.
33 This is the office of the family of the Merarites, and their ministry in the tabernacle of the covenant: and they shall be under the hand of Ithamar the son of Aaron the priest.
34 So Moses and Aaron and the princes of the synagogue reckoned up the sons of Caath, by their kindreds and the houses of their fathers,
35 From thirty years old and upward, unto fifty years old, all that go in to the ministry of the tabernacle of the covenant:
36 And they were found two thousand seven hundred and fifty.
37 This is the number of the people of Caath that go in to the tabernacle of the covenant: these did Moses and Aaron number according to the word of the Lord by the hand of Moses.
38 The sons of Gerson also were numbered by the kindreds and houses of their fathers,
39 From thirty years old and upward, unto fifty years old, all that go in to minister in the tabernacle of the covenant:
40 And they were found two thousand six hundred and thirty.
41 This is the people of the Gersonites, whom Moses and Aaron numbered according to the word of the Lord.
42 The sons of Merari also were numbered by the kindreds and houses of their fathers,
43 From thirty years old and upward, unto fifty years old, all that go in to fulfill the rites of the tabernacle of the covenant:
44 And they were found three thousand two hundred.
45 This is the number of the sons of Merari, whom Moses and Aaron reckoned up according to the commandment of the Lord by the hand of Moses.
46 All that were reckoned up of the Levites, and whom Moses and Aaron and the princes of Israel took by name, by the kindreds and houses of their fathers,
47 From thirty years old and upward, until fifty years old, that go into the ministry of the tabernacle, and to carry the burdens,
48 Were in all eight thousand five hundred and eighty.
49 Moses reckoned them up according to the word of the Lord, every one according to their office and burdens, as the Lord had commanded him.

Священное Писание (Восточный Перевод)
Обязанности каафитов
4 Вечный сказал Мусе и Харуну:
2 – Сделай перепись каафитской ветви левитов по кланам и семьям. 3 Исчисли всех мужчин от тридцати до пятидесяти лет, которые смогут работать при шатре встречи.
4 Вот служба каафитов при шатре встречи: пусть они заботятся о самой священной утвари. 5 Когда лагерю нужно будет трогаться в путь, пусть Харун и его сыновья войдут, снимут закрывающую завесу и покроют ею сундук соглашения. 6 Пусть они положат на завесу кожу дюгоней[a], расстелют сверху развёрнутое голубое покрывало и вложат шесты.
7 Пусть они расстелют над столом для священного хлеба голубое покрывало и положат на него тарелки, блюда, чаши и кувшины для жертвенных возлияний. Хлеб, который постоянно лежит там, пусть там и остаётся. 8 Над ними пусть они расстелют алое покрывало, покроют его кожей дюгоней и вложат шесты.
9 Пусть они возьмут голубое покрывало и покроют светильник с его лампадами, щипцами для фитилей, лотками для нагара и всеми сосудами для масла, из которых его заправляют. 10 Пусть они завернут его со всей утварью в покров из кожи дюгоней и положат на носилки.
11 Над золотым жертвенником пусть они расстелют голубое покрывало, покроют его кожей дюгоней и вложат шесты.
12 Пусть они возьмут всю утварь, которой пользуются для служения в святилище, завернут её в голубое покрывало, покроют кожей дюгоней и положат на носилки.
13 Пусть они сметут пепел с бронзового жертвенника, расстелют на жертвеннике пурпурное покрывало 14 и положат на него всю утварь, которой пользуются для служения при жертвеннике: противни, вилки для мяса, лопатки и кропильные чаши. Пусть они расстелют над ним покров из кожи дюгоней и вложат шесты.
15 Когда лагерю нужно будет трогаться в путь, после того как Харун и его сыновья закончат покрывать святилище и его утварь, пусть каафиты придут, чтобы нести всё это. Им нельзя прикасаться к самим священным вещам, иначе они умрут. Это утварь шатра встречи, которую будут носить каафиты.
16 Пусть Элеазар, сын священнослужителя Харуна, заботится о масле для посвящения, благовониях, постоянном хлебном приношении и масле для помазания. Пусть он заботится о священном шатре и обо всём, что в нём: о святилище и его утвари.
17 Вечный сказал Мусе и Харуну:
18 – Не дайте погибнуть левитскому клану каафитов. 19 Чтобы они жили и не умерли, приближаясь к великим святыням, сделайте для них вот что: пусть Харун и его сыновья входят в святилище и назначают каждому его службу и что ему нести. 20 Но сами они пусть не входят, чтобы посмотреть на святыни даже на миг, иначе они умрут.
Обязанности гершонитов
21 Вечный сказал Мусе:
22 – Ещё сделай перепись гершонитов по семьям и кланам. 23 Исчисли всех мужчин от тридцати до пятидесяти лет, которые могут служить при шатре встречи.
24 Вот служба гершонитских кланов, когда они трудятся и носят тяжести: 25 пусть несут покрывала священного шатра – шатра встречи, – его покрытие и внешнее покрытие из кож дюгоней, завесы к входу в шатёр встречи, 26 завесы двора вокруг священного шатра и жертвенника, завесу ко входу, верёвки и все принадлежности к ним. Пусть они делают всё то, что с этим положено делать. 27 Вся их служба – переноска или другая работа – пусть совершается под руководством Харуна и его сыновей. Доверьте их заботе всё, что они должны нести. 28 Такова служба гершонитских кланов при шатре встречи. Пусть они исполняют свои обязанности под началом Итамара, сына священнослужителя Харуна.
Обязанности мераритов
29 Исчисли мераритов по кланам и семьям. 30 Исчисли всех мужчин от тридцати до пятидесяти лет, которые могут служить при шатре встречи. 31 Вот их обязанность по службе при шатре встречи: пусть несут брусья священного шатра, его поперечины, столбы и основания, 32 а ещё столбы окружающего двора с их основаниями, колья священного шатра, верёвки, все принадлежности к ним и оснастку. Определи каждому, что именно ему нести. 33 Такова служба мераритских кланов, которую они должны исполнять при шатре встречи под началом Итамара, сына священнослужителя Харуна.
Исчисление левитских кланов
34 Муса, Харун и вожди народа исчислили каафитов по кланам и семьям. 35 Всех мужчин от тридцати до пятидесяти лет, годных служить при шатре встречи, 36 которых исчислили по кланам, было две тысячи семьсот пятьдесят человек. 37 Это общее число всех, кто в каафитских кланах служил при шатре встречи. Муса и Харун исчислили их по повелению Вечного, данному через Мусу.
38 Гершониты были исчислены по кланам и семьям. 39 Всех мужчин от тридцати до пятидесяти лет, годных служить при шатре встречи, 40 которых исчислили по кланам и семьям, было две тысячи шестьсот тридцать человек. 41 Это общее число всех, кто в гершонитских кланах служил при шатре встречи. Муса и Харун исчислили их по повелению Вечного.
42 Мерариты были исчислены по кланам и семьям. 43 Всех мужчин от тридцати до пятидесяти лет, годных служить при шатре встречи, 44 которых исчислили по кланам, было три тысячи двести человек. 45 Это их общее число в мераритских кланах. Муса и Харун исчислили их по повелению Вечного, данному через Мусу.
46 Муса, Харун и вожди Исраила исчислили всех левитов по кланам и семьям. 47 Всех мужчин от тридцати до пятидесяти лет, годных совершать служение при шатре встречи и нести его, 48 было восемь тысяч пятьсот восемьдесят человек. 49 По повелению Вечного, данному через Мусу, каждому из них назначили его службу и сказали, что нести.
Они были исчислены, как повелел через Мусу Вечный.

Numbers 4
King James Version
4 And the Lord spake unto Moses and unto Aaron, saying,
2 Take the sum of the sons of Kohath from among the sons of Levi, after their families, by the house of their fathers,
3 From thirty years old and upward even until fifty years old, all that enter into the host, to do the work in the tabernacle of the congregation.
4 This shall be the service of the sons of Kohath in the tabernacle of the congregation, about the most holy things:
5 And when the camp setteth forward, Aaron shall come, and his sons, and they shall take down the covering vail, and cover the ark of testimony with it:
6 And shall put thereon the covering of badgers' skins, and shall spread over it a cloth wholly of blue, and shall put in the staves thereof.
7 And upon the table of shewbread they shall spread a cloth of blue, and put thereon the dishes, and the spoons, and the bowls, and covers to cover withal: and the continual bread shall be thereon:
8 And they shall spread upon them a cloth of scarlet, and cover the same with a covering of badgers' skins, and shall put in the staves thereof.
9 And they shall take a cloth of blue, and cover the candlestick of the light, and his lamps, and his tongs, and his snuffdishes, and all the oil vessels thereof, wherewith they minister unto it:
10 And they shall put it and all the vessels thereof within a covering of badgers' skins, and shall put it upon a bar.
11 And upon the golden altar they shall spread a cloth of blue, and cover it with a covering of badgers' skins, and shall put to the staves thereof:
12 And they shall take all the instruments of ministry, wherewith they minister in the sanctuary, and put them in a cloth of blue, and cover them with a covering of badgers' skins, and shall put them on a bar:
13 And they shall take away the ashes from the altar, and spread a purple cloth thereon:
14 And they shall put upon it all the vessels thereof, wherewith they minister about it, even the censers, the fleshhooks, and the shovels, and the basons, all the vessels of the altar; and they shall spread upon it a covering of badgers' skins, and put to the staves of it.
15 And when Aaron and his sons have made an end of covering the sanctuary, and all the vessels of the sanctuary, as the camp is to set forward; after that, the sons of Kohath shall come to bear it: but they shall not touch any holy thing, lest they die. These things are the burden of the sons of Kohath in the tabernacle of the congregation.
16 And to the office of Eleazar the son of Aaron the priest pertaineth the oil for the light, and the sweet incense, and the daily meat offering, and the anointing oil, and the oversight of all the tabernacle, and of all that therein is, in the sanctuary, and in the vessels thereof.
17 And the Lord spake unto Moses and unto Aaron saying,
18 Cut ye not off the tribe of the families of the Kohathites from among the Levites:
19 But thus do unto them, that they may live, and not die, when they approach unto the most holy things: Aaron and his sons shall go in, and appoint them every one to his service and to his burden:
20 But they shall not go in to see when the holy things are covered, lest they die.
21 And the Lord spake unto Moses, saying,
22 Take also the sum of the sons of Gershon, throughout the houses of their fathers, by their families;
23 From thirty years old and upward until fifty years old shalt thou number them; all that enter in to perform the service, to do the work in the tabernacle of the congregation.
24 This is the service of the families of the Gershonites, to serve, and for burdens:
25 And they shall bear the curtains of the tabernacle, and the tabernacle of the congregation, his covering, and the covering of the badgers' skins that is above upon it, and the hanging for the door of the tabernacle of the congregation,
26 And the hangings of the court, and the hanging for the door of the gate of the court, which is by the tabernacle and by the altar round about, and their cords, and all the instruments of their service, and all that is made for them: so shall they serve.
27 At the appointment of Aaron and his sons shall be all the service of the sons of the Gershonites, in all their burdens, and in all their service: and ye shall appoint unto them in charge all their burdens.
28 This is the service of the families of the sons of Gershon in the tabernacle of the congregation: and their charge shall be under the hand of Ithamar the son of Aaron the priest.
29 As for the sons of Merari, thou shalt number them after their families, by the house of their fathers;
30 From thirty years old and upward even unto fifty years old shalt thou number them, every one that entereth into the service, to do the work of the tabernacle of the congregation.
31 And this is the charge of their burden, according to all their service in the tabernacle of the congregation; the boards of the tabernacle, and the bars thereof, and the pillars thereof, and sockets thereof,
32 And the pillars of the court round about, and their sockets, and their pins, and their cords, with all their instruments, and with all their service: and by name ye shall reckon the instruments of the charge of their burden.
33 This is the service of the families of the sons of Merari, according to all their service, in the tabernacle of the congregation, under the hand of Ithamar the son of Aaron the priest.
34 And Moses and Aaron and the chief of the congregation numbered the sons of the Kohathites after their families, and after the house of their fathers,
35 From thirty years old and upward even unto fifty years old, every one that entereth into the service, for the work in the tabernacle of the congregation:
36 And those that were numbered of them by their families were two thousand seven hundred and fifty.
37 These were they that were numbered of the families of the Kohathites, all that might do service in the tabernacle of the congregation, which Moses and Aaron did number according to the commandment of the Lord by the hand of Moses.
38 And those that were numbered of the sons of Gershon, throughout their families, and by the house of their fathers,
39 From thirty years old and upward even unto fifty years old, every one that entereth into the service, for the work in the tabernacle of the congregation,
40 Even those that were numbered of them, throughout their families, by the house of their fathers, were two thousand and six hundred and thirty.
41 These are they that were numbered of the families of the sons of Gershon, of all that might do service in the tabernacle of the congregation, whom Moses and Aaron did number according to the commandment of the Lord.
42 And those that were numbered of the families of the sons of Merari, throughout their families, by the house of their fathers,
43 From thirty years old and upward even unto fifty years old, every one that entereth into the service, for the work in the tabernacle of the congregation,
44 Even those that were numbered of them after their families, were three thousand and two hundred.
45 These be those that were numbered of the families of the sons of Merari, whom Moses and Aaron numbered according to the word of the Lord by the hand of Moses.
46 All those that were numbered of the Levites, whom Moses and Aaron and the chief of Israel numbered, after their families, and after the house of their fathers,
47 From thirty years old and upward even unto fifty years old, every one that came to do the service of the ministry, and the service of the burden in the tabernacle of the congregation.
48 Even those that were numbered of them, were eight thousand and five hundred and fourscore,
49 According to the commandment of the Lord they were numbered by the hand of Moses, every one according to his service, and according to his burden: thus were they numbered of him, as the Lord commanded Moses.
