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.
16 Tala misala ya Eleazari, mwana mobali ya Nganga-Nzambe Aron: kolandela mafuta ya etelemiselo ya minda, ansa ya kozikisa, makabo ya mokolo na mokolo mpe mafuta ya epakolami; kokengela Mongombo mpe biloko na yango nyonso, ezala Esika ya bule to biloko na yango nyonso. »
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.

And the Lord spoke to Moses and Aaron, saying,
18 « Bolongola te kati na Balevi lisanga ya mabota ya bato ya Keati.
You shall not destroy the family of Caath from the tribe out of the midst of the Levites.

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.
20 Basengeli te kokota bango moko mpo na kotala Esika ya bule, ata mpo na tango moke; soki te bakokufa. »
And [so] they shall by no means go in to look suddenly upon the holy things, and die.
