From thirty years old and upward even until fifty years old, all that are fitted for the service, to do work at the tabernacle of the congregation.
4 コハテの子たちの、会見の幕屋の務は、いと聖なる物にかかわるものであって、次のとおりである。
This shall be the service of the sons of Kehath at the tabernacle of the congregation: The most holy things.
5 すなわち、宿営の進む時に、アロンとその子たちとは、まず、はいって、隔ての垂幕を取りおろし、それをもって、あかしの箱をおおい、
And Aaron shall come with his sons, when the camp setteth forward, and they shall take down the vail of the separation, and cover therewith the ark of the testimony;
6 その上に、じゅごんの皮のおおいを施し、またその上に総青色の布をうちかけ、環にさおをさし入れる。
And they shall put over it a covering of badgers' skins, and they shall spread over all a cloth wholly of blue [woollen yarn], and they shall put in its staves.
7 また供えのパンの机の上には、青色の布をうちかけ、その上に、さら、乳香を盛る杯、鉢、および灌祭の瓶を並べ、また絶やさず供えるパンを置き、
And over the table of the showbread shall they spread a cloth of blue, and put thereon the dishes, and the spoons, and the tubes, and the staves of the covering; and the continual bread shall be thereon:
8 緋色の布をその上にうちかけ、じゅごんの皮のおおいをもって、これをおおい、さおをさし入れる。
And they shall spread over them a cloth of scarlet, and cover the same with a covering of badgers' skins; and they shall put in its staves.
9 また青色の布を取って、燭台とそのともし火ざら、芯切りばさみ、芯取りざら、およびそれに用いるもろもろの油の器をおおい、
And they shall take a cloth of blue, and cover the candlestick of the lighting, and its lamps, and its tongs, and its snuff-dishes, and all the oil-vessels thereof, wherewith they minister by it:
10 じゅごんの皮のおおいのうちに、燭台とそのもろもろの器をいれて、担架に載せる。
And they shall put it and all its vessels within a covering of badgers' skins, and they shall put it upon a barrow.
11 また、金の祭壇の上に青色の布をうちかけ、じゅごんの皮のおおいで、これをおおい、そのさおをさし入れる。
And over the golden altar shall they spread a cloth of blue, and cover it with a covering of badgers' skins; and they shall put in its staves.

And they shall take all the vessels of the service, wherewith they minister in the sanctuary, and put them in a cloth of blue, and cover them with a covering of badgers' skins; and they shall put them on a barrow.
13 また祭壇の灰を取り去って、紫の布をその祭壇の上にうちかけ、
And they shall take away the ashes from the altar, and spread over it a cloth of purple;
14 その上に、務をするのに用いるもろもろの器、すなわち、火ざら、肉さし、十能、鉢、および祭壇のすべての器を載せ、またその上に、じゅごんの皮のおおいをうちかけ、そしてさおをさし入れる。
And they shall put upon it all its vessels, wherewith they minister upon it, the fire-pans, the forks, and the shovels, and the basins, all the vessels of the altar; and they shall spread over it a covering of badgers' skins, and put in its staves.
15 宿営の進むとき、アロンとその子たちとが、聖所と聖所のすべての器をおおうことを終ったならば、その後コハテの子たちは、それを運ぶために、はいってこなければならない。しかし、彼らは聖なる物に触れてはならない。触れると死ぬであろう。会見の幕屋のうちの、これらの物は、コハテの子たちが運ぶものである。
And when Aaron and his sons have thus made an end of covering the sanctuary, and all the vessels of the sanctuary, when the camp is to set forward: then shall, after that, the sons of Kehath come to carry it; but they shall not touch any holy thing, lest they die; these are the things which the sons of Kehath are to carry at the tabernacle of the congregation.
16 祭司アロンの子エレアザルは、ともし油、香ばしい薫香、絶やさず供える素祭および注ぎ油をつかさどり、また幕屋の全体と、そのうちにあるすべての聖なる物、およびその所のもろもろの器をつかさどらなければならない」。
And under the supervision of Elazar the son of Aaron the priest shall be the oil for the lighting, and the incense of spices, and the daily meat-offering, and the anointing-oil; the supervision of all the tabernacle, and of all that is therein, over the sanctuary, and over its vessels.
17 主はまた、モーセとアロンに言われた、
And the Lord spoke unto Moses and unto Aaron, saying,
18 「あなたがたはコハテびとの一族を、レビびとのうちから絶えさせてはならない。
Do ye not cause the tribe of the families of the Kehathites to be cut off from among the Levites;
19 彼らがいと聖なる物に近づく時、死なないで、命を保つために、このようにしなさい、すなわち、アロンとその子たちが、まず、はいり、彼らをおのおのその働きにつかせ、そのになうべきものを取らせなさい。
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 しかし、彼らは、はいって、ひと目でも聖なる物を見てはならない。見るならば死ぬであろう」。
That they may not go in to see when the holy things are covered, and die.
