“Conduct a census of the male descendants of Kohath from among the Levites, by their clans and families.
3 Ka gbogbo ọkùnrin láti ọmọ ọgbọ̀n ọdún títí dé àádọ́ta ọdún gbogbo àwọn tó ń ṣiṣẹ́ nínú àgọ́ ìpàdé.
Count all the men who are thirty to fifty years old. These men must join the company to serve in the tent of meeting.
4 “Wọ̀nyí ni iṣẹ́ ìsìn àwọn ọmọ Kohati nínú àgọ́ àjọ, láti tọ́jú àwọn ohun èlò mímọ́ jùlọ.
The descendants of Kohath must take care of the most holy things reserved for me in the tent of meeting.
5 Nígbà tí àgọ́ yóò bá tẹ̀síwájú, Aaroni àti àwọn ọmọ rẹ̀ yóò wọ inú rẹ̀, wọn yóò sí aṣọ ìbòrí rẹ̀, wọn yóò sì fi bo àpótí ẹ̀rí.
When the camp prepares to move forward, Aaron and his sons must go into the tent, take down the curtain that separates the most holy place from the holy place and cover the ark of the testimony with it.
6 Wọn yóò sì fi awọ ewúrẹ́ bò ó, lórí awọ ewúrẹ́ yìí ni wọn ó tẹ̀ bọ ààyè rẹ̀.
They must cover the ark with sea cow skins. They must spread a blue cloth over it. They must insert the poles to carry it.
7 “Lórí tábìlì àkàrà ìfihàn ni kí wọn ó na aṣọ aláró kan sí, kí wọn kí ó sì fi àwopọ̀kọ́ sórí rẹ̀, àti ṣíbí àti àwokòtò àti ìgò fún ọrẹ ohun mímu; àti àkàrà ìgbà gbogbo ní kí ó wà lórí rẹ̀.
They are to spread a blue cloth on the table of the bread of the presence. On it they must put the dishes, spoons, bowls, and jars for pouring. Bread must always continue to be on the table.
8 Lórí gbogbo nǹkan wọ̀nyí ni wọn yóò da, wọn ó tún fi awọ ewúrẹ́ bò ó, wọn ó sì fi òpó rẹ̀ bọ ààyè rẹ̀.
They must cover them with a scarlet cloth and again with sea cow skins. They must insert poles to carry the table.
9 “Kí wọn kí ó sì mú aṣọ aláwọ̀ aláró kan, kí wọn kí ó sì fi bo ọ̀pá fìtílà àti fìtílà rẹ̀, àti alumagaji rẹ̀, àti àwo alumagaji rẹ̀, àti gbogbo ohun èlò òróró rẹ̀, èyí tí wọ́n fi ń ṣe iṣẹ́ rẹ̀.
They must take a blue cloth and cover the lampstand, along with its lamps, tongs, trays, and all the jars of oil for the lamps.
10 Kí wọn ó fi awọ ẹran yí fìtílà àti gbogbo ohun èlò rẹ, kí wọn kí ó sì gbé e lé orí férémù tí wọn yóò fi gbé e.
They must put the lampstand and all its accessories into a covering of sea cow skins, and they must put it on a carrying frame.
11 “Ní orí pẹpẹ wúrà ni kí wọn ó tẹ́ aṣọ aláró kan sí, wọn yóò sì fi awọ seali bò ó, kí wọ́n sì fi òpó rẹ̀ bọ ààyè rẹ̀.
They must spread a cloth of blue on the gold altar. They must cover it with a covering of sea cow skins, and then insert the carrying poles.
12 “Kí wọn kó gbogbo ohun èlò tí wọ́n ń lò fún iṣẹ́ ìsìn ní ibi mímọ́, kí wọn ó fi aṣọ aláwọ̀ búlúù yìí, kí wọn ó sì fi awọ seali bò ó, kí wọn ó sì fi gbé wọn ka orí férémù.
They must take all the equipment for the work in the holy place and wrap it in a blue cloth. They must cover it with sea cow skins and put the equipment on the carrying frame.
13 “Kí wọn ó kó eérú kúrò lórí pẹpẹ idẹ, kí wọn ó sì tẹ́ aṣọ aláwọ̀ àlùkò lé e lórí.
They must remove the ashes from the altar and spread a purple cloth on the altar.
14 Nígbà náà ni kí wọn ó kó gbogbo ohun èlò fún iṣẹ́ ìsìn níbi pẹpẹ, títí dórí àwo iná, fọ́ọ̀kì ẹran, ọkọ́ eérú àti àwokòtò. Kí wọn ó fi awọ ewúrẹ́ bo gbogbo rẹ̀, kí wọn ó sì fi òpó rẹ̀ bọ ààyè rẹ̀.
They must put on the carrying frame all the equipment that they use in the work of the altar. These objects are the firepans, forks, shovels, bowls, and all the other equipment for the altar. They must cover the altar with sea cow skins and then insert the carrying poles.
15 “Lẹ́yìn tí Aaroni àti àwọn ọmọ rẹ̀ ti parí bíbo ibi mímọ́ àti gbogbo ohun èlò ibi mímọ́, nígbà tí àgọ́ bá sì ṣetán láti tẹ̀síwájú, kí àwọn ọmọ Kohati bọ́ síwájú láti gbé e, ṣùgbọ́n wọn kò gbọdọ̀ fọwọ́ kan ohun mímọ́ kankan, bí wọ́n bá ṣe bẹ́ẹ̀ wọn ó kú. Àwọn ọmọ Kohati ni yóò gbé gbogbo ohun tó wà nínú àgọ́ ìpàdé.
When Aaron and his sons have completely covered the holy place and all its equipment, and when the camp moves forward, then the descendants of Kohath must come to carry the holy place. If they touch the holy instruments, they must die. This is the work of the descendants of Kohath, to carry the furnishings in the tent of meeting.
16 “Iṣẹ́ Eleasari ọmọ Aaroni tí í ṣe àlùfáà ni ṣíṣe àbojútó òróró fìtílà, tùràrí dídùn, ẹbọ ohun jíjẹ ìgbà gbogbo àti òróró ìtasórí. Kí ó jẹ́ alábojútó gbogbo ohun tó jẹ mọ́ àgọ́ àti gbogbo ohun tó wà nínú rẹ̀, pẹ̀lú gbogbo ohun èlò ibi mímọ́.”
Eleazar son of Aaron the priest oversees the care of the oil for the light, the sweet incense, the regular grain offering, and the anointing oil. He oversees the care of the entire tabernacle and all that is in it, the holy place and its equipment.”
17 Olúwa sọ fún Mose àti Aaroni pé,
Yahweh spoke to Moses and to Aaron. He said,
18 “Rí i pé a kò gé ẹ̀yà Kohati kúrò lára àwọn ọmọ Lefi.
“Do not allow the Kohathite tribal clans to be removed from among the Levites.
19 Nítorí kí wọ́n lè yè, kí wọ́n má ba à kú nígbà tí wọ́n bá súnmọ́ tòsí àwọn ohun mímọ́ jùlọ: Aaroni àti àwọn ọmọ rẹ̀ ni kí ó wọ ibi mímọ́ láti pín iṣẹ́ oníkálùkù àti àwọn ohun tí wọn yóò gbé.
Protect them, that they may live and not die, by doing this. When they approach the most holy things
20 Ṣùgbọ́n àwọn ọmọ Kohati kò gbọdọ̀ wọlé láti wo àwọn ohun mímọ́, bó tilẹ̀ jẹ́ ìṣẹ́jú kan, bí wọ́n bá ṣe bẹ́ẹ̀, wọn yóò kú.”
they must not go in to see the holy place even for a moment, or they must die. Aaron and his sons must go in, and then Aaron and his sons must assign each of the Kohathites to his work, to his special tasks.”
21 Olúwa sọ fún Mose pé,
Yahweh spoke again to Moses. He said,
22 “Tún ka iye àwọn ọmọ Gerṣoni nípa ilé baba wọn àti ìdílé wọn.
“Conduct a census of the descendants of Gershon also, by their ancestor's families and by their clans.

This is the work of the clans of the Gershonites, when they serve and what they carry.
25 Àwọn ni yóò máa ru àwọn aṣọ títa ti àgọ́, ti àgọ́ ìpàdé àti ìbòrí rẹ̀, àti awọ ewúrẹ́ tí a fi bò ó, aṣọ títa ẹnu-ọ̀nà àgọ́ ìpàdé,
They must carry the curtains of the tabernacle, the tent of meeting, its covering, the covering of sea cow skin that is on it, and the curtains for the entrance to the tent of meeting.
26 aṣọ títa ti àgbàlá tó yí àgọ́ àti pẹpẹ ká, aṣọ títa ti ẹnu-ọ̀nà àbáwọlé sí àgbàlá, okùn àti àwọn ohun èlò iṣẹ́ ìsìn, àti ohun gbogbo tí à ń lò fún wọn, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni wọn ó máa sìn. Àwọn ọmọ Gerṣoni ni yóò ṣe gbogbo ohun tó bá yẹ pẹ̀lú àwọn nǹkan wọ̀nyí.
They must carry the curtains of the court, the curtain for the doorway of the court's gate, which is near the tabernacle and near the altar, their ropes, and all the instruments for their service. Whatever should be done with these things, they must do it.

Aaron and his sons must direct all the service of the descendants of the Gershonites, in everything that they transport, and in all their service. You must assign them to all their responsibilities.
28 Èyí ni iṣẹ́ ìdílé àwọn Gerṣoni ni àgọ́ ìpàdé Itamari, ọmọ Aaroni tí í ṣe àlùfáà ni yóò sì jẹ alábojútó iṣẹ́ wọn.

You must count the descendants of Merari by their clans, and order them by their ancestor's families,
