1 And YHWH speaks to Moses and to Aaron, saying,
上主訓示梅瑟和亞郎說：「
2 “Take a census of the sons of Kohath from the midst of the sons of Levi, by their families, by the house of their fathers;
你應依照宗族和家系，統計肋未人中的刻哈特子孫，
3 from a son of thirty years and upward, even until a son of fifty years, everyone going in to the host, to do work in the Tent of Meeting.
由三十歲以上到五十歲，凡應入伍到會幕服務的都要登記。
4 This [is] the service of the sons of Kohath in the Tent of Meeting [for] the most holy things:
刻哈特子孫在會幕內的任務，是管理至聖之物。
5 when Aaron and his sons have come in, in the journeying of the camp, and have taken down the veil of the hanging, and have covered the Ark of the Testimony with it,
起營出發時，亞郎和他的兒子應來卸下帳幔，用來包裹約櫃，
6 then they have put a covering of tachash skin on it, and have spread a garment completely of blue above, and have placed its poles.
上面蒙上海豚皮蓋，其上再舖上純紫布，然後安上杠桿。
7 And they spread a garment of blue over the table of the presence, and have put the dishes, and the spoons, and the bowls, and the cups of the drink-offering on it, and the bread of continuity is on it,
在供餅桌上，應舖上子布，擺上盤、匙、杯和奠酒的爵；常供餅應仍在桌上。
8 and they have spread a garment of scarlet over them, and have covered it with a covering of tachash skin, and have placed its poles,
以後，在這些物件上，蓋上朱紅布，再蒙上海豚皮罩，然後安上杠桿。
9 and have taken a garment of blue, and have covered the lampstand of the lamp, and its lights, and its snuffers, and its snuff-dishes, and all its oil vessels with which they minister to it;
此後，拿一塊紫布，包好燈台和燈盞、剪子、碟子，以及為燈台用的一切油具；
10 and they have put it and all its vessels into a covering of tachash skin, and have put [it] on the bar.
將燈台和所有的用具，裝入海豚皮袋內，放在擔架上。
11 And they spread a garment of blue over the golden altar, and have covered it with a covering of tachash skin, and have placed its poles,
在金祭壇上舖上紫布，再用海豚皮包好，然後安上杠桿。
12 and have taken all the vessels of ministry with which they minister in the holy place, and have put [them] into a garment of blue, and have covered them with a covering of tachash skin, and have put [them] on the bar,
再把聖所內使用的一切用具都拿來，放在紫布袋內，再蒙上海豚皮罩，放在擔架上。
13 and have removed the ashes of the altar, and have spread a garment of purple over it,
把祭壇上的灰清除，舖上紫紅布，
14 and have put on it all its vessels with which they minister on it—the censers, the hooks, and the shovels, and the bowls, all the vessels of the altar—and have spread a covering of tachash skin on it, and have placed its poles.
上面放上一切用具：火盆。肉叉、鏟子、盤子以及祭壇上的一切用具；其上再蒙上海豚皮罩，然後安上杠桿。
15 And Aaron has finished—his sons also—covering the holy place, and all the vessels of the holy place, in the journeying of the camp, and afterward the sons of Kohath come in to carry [it], and they do not come to the holy thing, lest they have died; these [things are] the burden of the sons of Kohath in the Tent of Meeting.
亞郎和他的兒子包裝完了聖物和聖所的一切用具，起營出發時，刻哈特的子孫纔來抬，免得他們觸摸聖物而死亡：這是刻哈特的子孫對會幕的職務。
16 And the oversight of Eleazar, son of Aaron the priest, [is] the oil of the lamp, and the spice-incense, and the present of continuity, and the anointing oil, the oversight of all the Dwelling Place and of all that [is] in it, in the sanctuary and in its vessels.”
至於亞郎大司祭的兒子厄肋阿匝爾的任務，是管理燈油、香料、日獻的素祭和為傅禮用的油，並照管全會幕與其中所有的聖物和器具。」
17 And YHWH speaks to Moses and to Aaron, saying,
上主訓示梅瑟和亞郎說：「
18 “You do not cut off the tribe of the families of the Kohathite from the midst of the Levites;
不要使刻哈特族的一支由肋未人中消滅；
19 but do this for them, and they have lived and do not die in their drawing near [to] the Holy of Holies: Aaron and his sons go in, and have set them, each man to his service, and to his burden,
為使他們接近至聖之物時，生存而不死亡，你們對他們應這樣做：亞郎和他的兒子先來，給他們每人指定各人服役和搬運的工作，
20 and they do not go in to see when the holy thing is swallowed, lest they have died.”
免得這些人進去一時見到聖物而遭遇死亡。」
21 And YHWH speaks to Moses, saying,
上主訓示梅瑟說：「
22 “Also take a census of the sons of Gershon by the house of their fathers, by their families;
你要依照家系和宗族統計革爾雄的子孫，
23 from a son of thirty years and upward, until a son of fifty years, you number them—everyone who is going in to serve the host, to do the service in the Tent of Meeting.

24 This [is] the service of the families of the Gershonite, to serve and for burden:

搬運帳幕的帷幔、會幕和其頂蓬，及其上面蓋的海豚皮和會幕的門簾，
26 and the hangings of the court, and the veil at the opening of the gate of the court which [is] by the Dwelling Place, and by the altar all around, and their cords, and all the vessels of their service, and all that is made for them—and they have served.
庭院的帷幔，圍繞會幕和祭壇庭院的門簾、繩索以及一切為服役用的器具；凡交與他們應作的一切，他們都應執行。
27 By the command of Aaron and his sons is all the service of the sons of the Gershonite, in all their burden and in all their service; and you have laid a charge on them concerning the charge of all their burden.
革爾雄人所有的任務，不論是搬運或是服役，應全遵照亞郎和他兒子的吩咐；所以你們應照顧他們搬運一切：

由三十歲以上到五十歲，凡應入伍到會幕服務的，都要登記。

依照他們在會幕內所擔任的職務，應搬運的是：帳幕的木板、橫木、柱子和卯座，
