سپس خداوند به موسی و هارون فرمود: 1
Adonai spoke to Moses [Drawn out] and to Aaron [Light-bringer], saying,
«نسل قهات را که طایفه‌ای از قبیلهٔ لاوی می‌باشند، بشمار. 2
“Take a census of the sons of Kohath from among the sons of Levi [United with], by their families, by their fathers’ houses,
این سرشماری از تمام مردان سی ساله تا پنجاه ساله که می‌توانند در خیمهٔ ملاقات خدمت کنند به عمل آید. 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.
«وظایف نسل قهات در خیمۀ ملاقات در خصوص اسبابِ بسیار مقدّس خواهد بود. 4
“This is the service of the sons of Kohath in the Tent of Meeting, the most holy things.
وقتی که اردو بخواهد حرکت کند، ابتدا هارون و پسرانش باید به خیمهٔ عبادت داخل شوند و پردهٔ داخلی را پایین آورده، صندوق عهد را با آن بپوشانند. 5
When the camp moves forward, Aaron [Light-bringer] 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,
سپس پرده را با پوست بز پوشانیده، یک پارچهٔ آبی رنگ روی پوست بز بکشند و چوبهای حامل صندوق عهد را در حلقه‌های خود قرار دهند. 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.
«بعد ایشان باید یک پارچهٔ آبی روی میزی که نان حضور بر آن گذاشته می‌شود کشیده، بشقابها، قاشقها، کاسه‌ها، پیاله‌ها و نان حضور را روی آن پارچه بگذارند. 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 cups with which to pour out; and the continual bread shall be on it.
سپس یک پارچهٔ ارغوانی روی آن کشیده، آنگاه پارچهٔ ارغوانی را با پوست بز بپوشانند و چوبهای حامل میز را در حلقه‌ها جای دهند. 8
They shall spread on them a scarlet cloth, and cover the same with a covering of sealskin, and shall put in its poles.
«پس از آن باید چراغدان، چراغها، انبرها، سینی‌ها و ظرف روغن زیتون را با پارچهٔ آبی رنگ بپوشانند. 9
“They shall take a blue cloth, and cover the menorah ·lamp· of the light, and its menorah ·lamp· candles, and its snuffers, and its snuff dishes, and all its oil utensils, with which they minister to it.
سپس تمام این اشیاء را در پوست بز پیچیده، بسته را روی یک چهار چوب حامل قرار دهند. 10
They shall put it and all its utensils within a covering of sealskin, and shall put it on the frame.
«آنگاه یک پارچهٔ آبی روی مذبح طلایی بکشند و آن را با پوست بز پوشانیده، چوبهای حامل را در حلقه‌های مذبح بگذارند. 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.
کلیهٔ وسایل باقیماندهٔ خیمهٔ عبادت را در یک پارچهٔ آبی پیچیده، آن را با پوست بز بپوشانند و روی چهار چوب حامل بگذارند. 12
“They shall take all the utensils 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.
«خاکستر مذبح را باید دور بریزند و خود مذبح را با یک پارچهٔ ارغوانی بپوشانند. 13
“They shall take away the ashes from the altar, and spread a purple cloth on it.
تمام وسایل مذبح از قبیل آتشدانها، چنگکها، خاک‌اندازها، کاسه‌ها و ظروف دیگر را باید روی پارچه بگذارند و پوششی از پوست بز روی آنها بکشند. آنگاه چوبهای حامل را در جاهای خود قرار دهند. 14
They shall put on it all its utensils, with which they minister about it, the fire pans, the meat hooks, the shovels, and the basins; all the utensils of the altar; and they shall spread on it a covering of sealskin, and put in its poles.
وقتی که هارون و پسرانش، کار جمع کردن اسباب قدس و کلیهٔ وسایل آن را تمام کردند، نسل قهات آمده، آنها را بردارند و به هر جایی که اردو کوچ می‌کند ببرند. ولی ایشان نباید به این اشیاء مقدّس دست بزنند مبادا بمیرند، پس وظیفهٔ مقدّس پسران قهات، حمل اشیاء خیمهٔ ملاقات است. 15
“When Aaron [Light-bringer] 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.
«العازار پسر هارون، مسئول روغن برای روشنایی، بخور خوشبو، هدیهٔ آردی روزانه و روغن تدهین باشد. در واقع، نظارت بر تمامی خیمهٔ عبادت و هر چه که در آن است به عهدهٔ او خواهد بود.» 16
“The duty of Eleazar [Help of God] the son of Aaron [Light-bringer] 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.”
سپس خداوند به موسی و هارون فرمود: 17
Adonai spoke to Moses [Drawn out] and to Aaron [Light-bringer], saying,
«مواظب باشید طایفۀ قهاتیان از میان لاویان منقطع نشوند. 18
“Don’t cut off the tribe of the families of the Kohathites from among the Levites [Descendants of United with];
آنچه باید بکنید تا ایشان به هنگام حمل مقدّسترین اشیاء خیمۀ عبادت نمیرند، این است: هارون و پسرانش با ایشان داخل خیمۀ عبادت شده، آنچه را که هر یک از آنان باید حمل کنند به ایشان نشان دهند. 19
but thus do to them, that they may live, and not die, when they approach to the most holy things: Aaron [Light-bringer] and his sons shall go in, and appoint them everyone to his service and to his burden;
در غیر این صورت، ایشان نباید هرگز حتی برای یک لحظه داخل قدس بشوند، مبادا به اشیاء مقدّس آنجا نگاه کرده بمیرند.» 20
but they shall not go in to see the sanctuary even for a moment, lest they die.”
خداوند به موسی فرمود: 21
Adonai spoke to Moses [Drawn out], saying,
«افراد خاندانها و طایفه‌های جرشون از قبیلۀ لاوی را سرشماری کن. 22
“Take a census of the sons of Gershon also, by their fathers’ houses, by their families;
همۀ مردان سی ساله و بالاتر تا پنجاه ساله را که می‌توانند در خیمهٔ ملاقات خدمت کنند، بشمار. 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.
وظایف ایشان از این قرار است: 24
“This is the service of the families of the Gershonites, in serving and in bearing burdens:
«حمل پرده‌های خیمهٔ ملاقات، خود خیمه با پوششهای آن، پوشش پوست بز بالای آن، پردهٔ مدخل خیمه، 25
they shall carry the curtains of the tabernacle, and the Tent of Meeting, its covering, and the covering of sealskin that is above on it, and the screen for the door of the Tent of Meeting,
حمل پرده‌های دیوار حیاط و پردهٔ مدخل حیاطی که در اطراف مذبح و خیمهٔ عبادت است، به اضافهٔ حمل طنابها و تمام لوازم دیگر. ایشان مسئول حمل و نقل این اشیاء هستند. 26
and the hangings of the court, and the screen for the door of the gate of the court, which is by the tabernacle and around the altar, and their cords, and all the instruments of their service, and whatever shall be done with them. They shall serve in there.
هارون و پسران او، این خدمتها را برای جرشونی‌ها تعیین خواهند نمود. 27
Aaron [Light-bringer] and his sons shall supervise all the work of the sons of the Gershonites, transporting loads and serving, and you shall assign them who is to do what job and its responsibilities.
این است خدمت جرشونی‌ها در خیمۀ ملاقات؛ و ایتامار پسر هارون بر کار آنها نظارت خواهد کرد.» 28
This is the service of the families of the sons of the Gershonites in the Tent of Meeting: and their duty shall be under the hand of Ithamar the son of Aaron [Light-bringer] the priest.
«حال افراد طایفه‌ها و خاندانهای مِراری از قبیلۀ لاوی را سرشماری کن. 29
“As for the sons of Merari, you shall count them by their families, by their fathers’ houses;
همۀ مردان سی ساله و بالاتر تا پنجاه ساله را که می‌توانند در خیمهٔ ملاقات خدمت کنند، بشمار. 30
you shall count them from thirty years old and upward even to fifty years old, everyone who enters on the service, to do the work of the Tent of Meeting.
هنگام حمل و نقل خیمهٔ ملاقات، ایشان باید چوب‌بست خیمه، پشت‌بندها، ستونها، پایه‌ها، 31
This is the duty of their burden, according to all their service in the Tent of Meeting: the tabernacle’s boards, its bars, its pillars, its sockets,
ستونهای اطراف حیاط با پایه‌ها، میخها، طنابها و هر چیز دیگری را که مربوط به استفاده و تعمیر آنها باشد، حمل کنند. «وظیفهٔ هر کس را با ذکر اسم، به او گوشزد نما. 32
and the pillars of the court around it, and their sockets, and their pins, and their cords, with all their instruments, and with all their service: and by name you shall appoint the instruments of the duty of their burden.
مردان مراری نیز باید تحت نظر ایتامار پسر هارون در خیمۀ ملاقات انجام وظیفه کنند.» 33
This is the service of the families of the sons of Merari, according to all their service, in the Tent of Meeting, under the hand of Ithamar the son of Aaron [Light-bringer] the priest.”
پس موسی و هارون و رهبران دیگر، طایفهٔ قهات را برحسب طایفه‌ها و خاندانهایشان سرشماری کردند. 34
Moses [Drawn out] and Aaron [Light-bringer] and the princes of the congregation counted the sons of the Kohathites by their families, and by their fathers’ houses,

Those who were counted of them by their families were two thousand seven hundred fifty.
