Numbers 4
1 And the Lord spoke to Moses and Aaron, saying,
耶和華曉諭摩西、亞倫說：
2 Take the sum of the children of Caath from the midst of the sons of Levi, after their families, according to the houses of their fathers' households;
「你從利未人中，將哥轄子孫的總數，照他們的家室、宗族，
3 from twenty-five years old and upward until fifty years, every one that goes in to minister, to do all the works in the tabernacle of witness.
從三十歲直到五十歲，凡前來任職、在會幕裏辦事的，全都計算。
4 And these are the works of the sons of Caath in the tabernacle of witness; it is most holy.
哥轄子孫在會幕搬運至聖之物，所辦的事乃是這樣：
5 And Aaron and his sons shall go in, when the camp is about to move, and shall take down the shadowing veil, and shall cover with it the ark of the testimony.
起營的時候，亞倫和他兒子要進去摘下遮掩櫃的幔子，用以蒙蓋法櫃，
6 And they shall put on it a cover, even a blue skin, and put on it above a garment all of blue, and shall put the staves through [the rings].
又用海狗皮蓋在上頭，再蒙上純藍色的毯子，把槓穿上。
7 And they shall put on the table set forth for show-bread a cloth all of purple, and the dishes, and the censers, and the cups, and the vessels with which one offers drink-offerings; and the continual loaves shall be upon it.
又用藍色毯子鋪在陳設餅的桌子上，將盤子、調羹、奠酒的爵，和杯擺在上頭。桌子上也必有常設的餅。
8 And they shall put upon it a scarlet cloth, and they shall cover it with a blue covering of skin, and they shall put the staves into it.
在其上又要蒙朱紅色的毯子，再蒙上海狗皮，把槓穿上。
9 And they shall take a blue covering, and cover the candlestick that gives light, and its lamps, and its snuffers, and its funnels, and all the vessels of oil with which they minister.
要拿藍色毯子，把燈臺和燈臺上所用的燈盞、剪子、蠟花盤，並一切盛油的器皿，全都遮蓋。
10 And they shall put it, and all its vessels, into a blue skin cover; and they shall put it on bearers.
又要把燈臺和燈臺的一切器具包在海狗皮裏，放在抬架上。
11 And they shall put a blue cloth for a cover on the golden altar, and shall cover it with a blue skin cover, and put in its staves.
在金壇上要鋪藍色毯子，蒙上海狗皮，把槓穿上。
12 And they shall take all the instruments of service, with which they minister in the sanctuary: and shall place them in a cloth of blue, and shall cover them with blue skin covering, and put them upon staves.
又要把聖所用的一切器具包在藍色毯子裏，用海狗皮蒙上，放在抬架上。
13 And he shall put the covering on the altar, and they shall cover it with a cloth all of purple.
要收去壇上的灰，把紫色毯子鋪在壇上；
14 And they shall put upon it all the vessels with which they minister upon it, and the fire-pans, and the flesh hooks, and the cups, and the cover, and all the vessels of the altar; and they shall put on it a blue cover of skins, and shall put in its staves; and they shall take a purple cloth, and cover the laver and its foot, and they shall put it into a blue cover of skin, and put it on bars.
又要把所用的一切器具，就是火鼎、肉鍤子、鏟子、盤子，一切屬壇的器具都擺在壇上，又蒙上海狗皮，把槓穿上。
15 And Aaron and his sons shall finish covering the holy things, and all the holy vessels, when the camp begins to move; and afterwards the sons of Caath shall go in to take up [the furniture]; but shall not touch the holy things, lest they die: these shall the sons of Caath bear in the tabernacle of witness.
將要起營的時候，亞倫和他兒子把聖所和聖所的一切器具遮蓋完了，哥轄的子孫就要來抬，只是不可摸聖物，免得他們死亡。會幕裏這些物件是哥轄子孫所當抬的。
16 Eleazar the son of Aaron the priest is overseer—the oil of the light, and the incense of composition, and the daily meat-offering and the anointing oil, are his charge; even the oversight of the whole tabernacle, and all things that are in it in the holy place, in all the works.
「祭司亞倫的兒子以利亞撒所要看守的是點燈的油與香料，並當獻的素祭和膏油，也要看守全帳幕與其中所有的，並聖所和聖所的器具。」
17 And the Lord spoke to Moses and Aaron, saying,
耶和華曉諭摩西、亞倫說：
18 You shall not destroy the family of Caath from the tribe out of the midst of the Levites.
「你們不可將哥轄人的支派從利未人中剪除。
19 This do you to them, and they shall live and not die, when they approach the holy of holies: Let Aaron and his sons advance, and they shall place them each in his post for bearing.
他們挨近至聖物的時候，亞倫和他兒子要進去派他們各人所當辦的，所當抬的。這樣待他們，好使他們活着，不致死亡。
20 And [so] they shall by no means go in to look suddenly upon the holy things, and die.
只是他們連片時不可進去觀看聖所，免得他們死亡。」
21 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,
耶和華曉諭摩西說：
22 Take the sum of the children of Gedson, and these according to the houses of their lineage, according to their families.
「你要將革順子孫的總數，照着宗族、家室，
23 Take the number of them from five and twenty years old and upwards until the age of fifty, every one that goes in to minister, to do his business in the tabernacle of witness.
從三十歲直到五十歲，凡前來任職、在會幕裏辦事的，全都數點。
24 This [is] the public service of the family of Gedson, to minister and to bear.
革順人各族所辦的事、所抬的物乃是這樣：
25 And they shall bear the skins of the tabernacle, and the tabernacle of witness, and its veil, and the blue cover that was on it above, and the cover of the door of the tabernacle of witness.
他們要抬帳幕的幔子和會幕，並會幕的蓋與其上的海狗皮，和會幕的門簾，
26 And all the curtains of the court which were upon the tabernacle of witness, and the appendages, and all the vessels of service that they minister with they shall attend to.
院子的帷子和門簾（院子是圍帳幕和壇的）、繩子，並所用的器具，不論是做甚麼用的，他們都要經理。
27 According to the direction of Aaron and his sons shall be the ministry of the sons of Gedson, in all their ministries, and in all their works; and you shall take account of them by name in all things borne by them.
革順的子孫在一切抬物辦事之上都要憑亞倫和他兒子的吩咐；他們所當抬的，要派他們看守。
28 This is the service of the sons of Gedson in the tabernacle of witness, and their charge by the hand of Ithamar the son of Aaron the priest.
這是革順子孫的各族在會幕裏所辦的事；他們所看守的，必在祭司亞倫兒子以他瑪的手下。」
29 The sons of Merari according to their families, according to the houses of their lineage, take you the number of them.
「至於米拉利的子孫，你要照着家室、宗族把他們數點。
30 Take the number of them from five and twenty years old and upwards until fifty years old, every one that goes in to perform the services of the tabernacle of witness.
從三十歲直到五十歲，凡前來任職、在會幕裏辦事的，你都要數點。
31 And these are the charges of the things borne by them according to all their works in the tabernacle of witness: they shall bear the chapiters of the tabernacle, and the bars, and its pillars, and its sockets, and the veil, and [there shall be] their sockets, and their pillars, and the curtain of the door of the tabernacle.
他們辦理會幕的事，就是抬帳幕的板、閂、柱子，和帶卯的座，
32 And they shall bear the pillars of the court round about, and [there shall be] their sockets, and [they shall bear] the pillars of the veil of the door of the court, and their sockets and their pins, and their cords, and all their furniture, and all their instruments of service: take you their number by name, and all the articles of the charge of the things borne by them.
院子四圍的柱子和其上帶卯的座、橛子、繩子，並一切使用的器具。他們所抬的器具，你們要按名指定。
33 This is the ministration of the family of the sons of Merari in all their works in the tabernacle of witness, by the hand of Ithamar the son of Aaron the priest.
這是米拉利子孫各族在會幕裏所辦的事，都在祭司亞倫兒子以他瑪的手下。」
34 And Moses and Aaron and the rulers of Israel took the number of the sons of Caath according to their families, according to the houses of their lineage;
摩西、亞倫與會眾的諸首領將哥轄的子孫，照着家室、宗族，
35 from five and twenty years old and upwards to the age of fifty years, every one that goes in to minister and do service in the tabernacle of witness.
從三十歲直到五十歲，凡前來任職、在會幕裏辦事的，都數點了。
36 And the numbering of them according to their families was two thousand, seven hundred and fifty.
被數的共有二千七百五十名。
37 This is the numbering of the family of Caath, every one that ministers in the tabernacle of witness, as Moses and Aaron numbered them by the word of the Lord, by the hand of Moses.
這是哥轄各族中被數的，是在會幕裏辦事的，就是摩西、亞倫照耶和華藉摩西所吩咐數點的。
38 And the sons of Gedson were numbered according to their families, according to the houses of their lineage,
革順子孫被數的，照着家室、宗族，
39 from five and twenty years old and upward till fifty years old, every one that goes in to minister and to do the services in the tabernacle of witness.
從三十歲直到五十歲，凡前來任職、在會幕裏辦事的，共有二千六百三十名。
40 And the numbering of them according to their families, according to the houses of their lineage, [was] two thousand six hundred and thirty.
41 This [is] the numbering of the family of the sons of Gedson, every one who ministers in the tabernacle of witness; whom Moses and Aaron numbered by the word of the Lord, by the hand of Moses.
這是革順子孫各族中被數的，是在會幕裏辦事的，就是摩西、亞倫照耶和華藉摩西所吩咐數點的。
42 And also the family of the sons of Merari were numbered according to their divisions, according to the house of their fathers;
米拉利子孫中各族被數的，照着家室、宗族，

46 All that were numbered, whom Moses and Aaron and the rulers of Israel numbered, [namely], the Levites, according to their families and according to the houses of their lineage,
凡被數的利未人，就是摩西、亞倫並以色列眾首領，照着家室、宗族所數點的，
47 from five and twenty years old and upward till fifty years old, every one that goes in to the service of the works, and the [charge of] the things that are carried in the tabernacle of witness.
從三十歲直到五十歲，凡前來任職、在會幕裏做抬物之工的，共有八千五百八十名。
48 And they that were numbered were eight thousand five hundred and eighty.
49 He reviewed them by the word of the Lord by the hand of Moses, appointing each man severally over their [respective] work, and over their burdens; and they were numbered, as the Lord commanded Moses.
摩西按他們所辦的事、所抬的物，憑耶和華的吩咐數點他們；他們這樣被摩西數點，正如耶和華所吩咐他的。
