Jehova akĩĩra Musa na Harũni atĩrĩ:
2 "Take a census of the sons of Kohath from among the sons of Levi, by their families, by their fathers' houses,
“Thĩinĩ wa Alawii-rĩ, tarai rũhonge rwa Akohathu kũringana na mbarĩ ciao na nyũmba ciao.
3 from thirty years old and upward even until fifty years old, all who enter into the service, to do the work in the Tent of Meeting.
Mũtare arũme othe a ũkũrũ wa kuuma mĩaka mĩrongo ĩtatũ nginya mĩaka mĩrongo ĩtano arĩa mokaga gũtungata wĩra-inĩ wa Hema-ya-Gũtũnganwo.
4 This is the service of the sons of Kohath in the Tent of Meeting, the most holy things.
“Ũyũ nĩguo wĩra wa Akohathu thĩinĩ wa Hema-ya-Gũtũnganwo: wĩra wao nĩ kũmenyerera indo iria theru mũno.
5 When the camp moves forward, Aaron shall go in, and his sons, and they shall take down the veil of the screen, and cover the ark of the Testimony with it,
Rĩrĩa kambĩ ĩgũthaama-rĩ, Harũni na ariũ ake marĩtoonyaga thĩinĩ wa hema ĩyo makaruta gĩtambaya gĩa gũcuurio gĩa kũhakania na makahumbĩra ithandũkũ rĩa Ũira nakĩo.
6 and shall put a covering of sealskin on it, and shall spread over it a cloth all of blue, and shall put in its poles.

7 On the table of show bread they shall spread a blue cloth, and put on it the dishes, the spoons, the bowls, and the pitchers for pouring with them; and the continual bread shall be on it.
“Nao maare gĩtambaya kĩa rangi wa bururu igũrũ rĩa metha ya mĩgate ĩrĩa ĩigagwo mbere ya Jehova, na mamĩigĩrĩre thaani, na thaani, nene na mbakũri, na ndigithũ cia magongona ma kũnyuuo; na mĩgate ĩrĩa ĩigagwo hau hĩndĩ ciothe ĩikare o hau igũrũ.
8 They shall spread on them a scarlet cloth, and cover the same with a covering of sealskin, and shall put in its poles.
Macooke maigĩrĩre gĩtambaya kĩa rangi wa gakarakũ igũrũ rĩa indo icio na ningĩ mahumbĩre gĩtambaya kĩu na njũũa cia pomboo, na matoonyie mĩtĩ ya kũrĩkuua handũ hayo.
9 They shall take a blue cloth, and cover the lampstand of the light, and its lamps, and its snuffers, and its snuff dishes, and all its oil vessels, with which they minister to it.
“Ningĩ moe gĩtambaya kĩa rangi wa bururu, mahumbĩre mũtĩ ũrĩa wa kũigĩrĩrwo matawa marĩa mamũrĩkaga, hamwe na matawa maguo, na magathĩ ma gũtinia ndaambĩ, na thaani cia mũrarĩ wa ndaambĩ, na ndigithũ cia gwĩkĩrwo maguta ma matawa macio.
10 They shall put it and all its vessels within a covering of sealskin, and shall put it on the frame.
Ningĩ makũnje mũtĩ ũcio na indo ciaguo ciothe ciohetwo na gĩthii kĩa njũũa cia pomboo, na macigĩrĩre igũrũ rĩa gĩkuui gĩacio.
11 On the golden altar they shall spread a blue cloth, and cover it with a covering of sealskin, and shall put in its poles.
“Nĩ maare gĩtambaya kĩa rangi wa bururu igũrũ rĩa kĩgongona gĩa thahabu, na makĩhumbĩre na gĩthii kĩa njũũa cia pomboo, na matoonyie mĩtĩ ĩrĩa ya gũgĩkuua handũ hayo.
12 They shall take all the vessels of ministry, with which they minister in the sanctuary, and put them in a blue cloth, and cover them with a covering of sealskin, and shall put them on the frame.
“Ningĩ moe indo ciothe iria ihũthagĩrwo ũtungata-inĩ wa handũ-harĩa-haamũre, macikũnje na gĩtambaya kĩa rangi wa bururu, macihumbĩre na gĩthii kĩa njũũa cia pomboo, na maciigĩrĩre igũrũ rĩa gĩkuui gĩacio.
13 They shall take away the ashes from the altar, and spread a purple cloth on it.
“Ningĩ nĩ marute mũhu kuuma kĩgongona-inĩ gĩa gĩcango, na maare gĩtambaya kĩa rangi wa ndathi igũrũ rĩakĩo.
14 They shall put on it all its vessels, with which they minister about it, the fire pans, the flesh hooks, the shovels, and the basins; all the vessels of the altar; and they shall spread on it a covering of sealskin, and put in its poles.
Ningĩ maigĩrĩre indo ciothe iria ihũthagĩrwo gũtungata kĩgongona-inĩ, nacio nĩ hamwe na ngĩo cia mwaki, na njibe, na icakũri, na mbakũri cia kũminjaminjĩria. Igũrũ rĩakĩo nĩ maare gĩthii kĩa njũũa cia pomboo na matoonyie mĩtĩ ya gũgĩkuua handũ hayo.
15 "When Aaron and his sons have finished covering the sanctuary, and all the furniture of the sanctuary, as the camp moves forward; after that, the sons of Kohath shall come to carry it: but they shall not touch the sanctuary, lest they die. These things are the burden of the sons of Kohath in the Tent of Meeting.
“Thuutha wa Harũni na ariũ ake kũrĩĩkia kũhumbĩra indo ciothe theru o na indo ciothe nyamũre, na rĩrĩa andũ a kambĩ mehaarĩria gũthaama-rĩ, ariũ a Akohathu nao moke makuue indo icio. No matikanahutie indo icio nyamũre matigakue. Akohathu acio nĩo magaakuua indo iria irĩ thĩinĩ wa Hema-ya-Gũtũnganwo.
16 "The duty of Eleazar the son of Aaron the priest shall be the oil for the light, the sweet incense, the continual meal offering, and the anointing oil, the requirements of all the tabernacle, and of all that is in it, the sanctuary, and its furnishings."
“Eleazaru mũrũ wa Harũni, ũrĩa mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai, nĩwe ũrĩmenyagĩrĩra maguta ma gwakia tawa, na ũbumba ũrĩa ũnungaga wega, na mũtu ũrĩa ũrutagwo hĩndĩ ciothe, o na maguta marĩa maitanagĩrĩrio. Nĩwe ũrĩmenyagĩrĩra Hema-ĩyo-Nyamũre ĩrĩ yothe na indo iria ciothe irĩ thĩinĩ wayo, nĩcio indo iria nyamũre ciĩkĩrĩtwo kuo, na indo cia wĩra.”
17 Jehovah spoke to Moses and to Aaron, saying,
Jehova akĩĩra Musa na Harũni atĩrĩ,
18 "Do not cut off the tribe of the families of the Kohathites from among the Levites;
“Menyererai mbarĩ cia mũhĩrĩga wa Akohathu matikaneherio kuuma kũrĩ Alawii.
19 but thus do to them, that they may live, and not die, when they approach to the most holy things: Aaron and his sons shall go in, and appoint them everyone to his service and to his burden;
Nĩguo matũũre muoyo na matikae gũkua rĩrĩa mangĩkuhĩrĩria indo iria theru mũno-rĩ, mekagĩrei ũũ: Harũni na ariũ ake nĩo marĩtoonyaga handũ harĩa hatheru, na makagaĩra o mũndũ wĩra wake na kĩrĩa egũkuua.
20 but they shall not go in to see the sanctuary even for a moment, lest they die."
No ariũ a Kohathu matikanatoonye thĩinĩ kuona indo iria theru o na hanini, nĩguo matigaakue.”
21 Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,
Jehova akĩĩra Musa atĩrĩ,
22 "Take a census of the sons of Gershon also, by their fathers' houses, by their families;
“Tara Agerishoni o nao kũringana na nyũmba ciao na mbarĩ ciao.
23 you shall count them from thirty years old and upward until fifty years old; all who enter in to wait on the service, to do the work in the Tent of Meeting.
Ũtare arũme othe a ũkũrũ wa kuuma mĩaka mĩrongo ĩtatũ nginya mĩaka mĩrongo ĩtano arĩa mokaga gũtungata wĩra-inĩ wa Hema-ya-Gũtũnganwo.
24 This is the service of the families of the Gershonites, in serving and in bearing burdens:
“Ũyũ nĩguo ũtungata wa mbarĩ cia Agerishoni rĩrĩa mekũruta wĩra na gũkuua mĩrigo:
