[15] 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] ἐπίσκοπος Ελεαζαρ υἱὸς Ααρων τοῦ ἱερέως· τὸ ἔλαιον τοῦ φωτὸς καὶ τὸ θυμίαμα τῆς συνθέσεως καὶ ἡ θυσία ἡ καθ’ ἡμέραν καὶ τὸ ἔλαιον τῆς χρίσεως, ἡ ἐπισκοπὴ ὅλης τῆς σκηνῆς καὶ ὅσα ἐστὶν ἐν αὐτῇ ἐν τῷ ἁγίῳ ἐν πᾶσι τοῖς ἔργοις. –
[16] 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.
[17] καὶ ἐλάλησεν κύριος πρὸς Μωυσῆν καὶ Ααρων λέγων
[17] And the Lord spoke to Moses and Aaron, saying,
[18] Μὴ ὀλεθρεύσητε τῆς φυλῆς τὸν δῆμον τὸν Κααθ ἐκ μέσου τῶν Λευιτῶν·
[18] Ye shall not destroy the family of Caath
from the tribe out of the midst of the Levites.
[19] τοῦτο ποιήσατε αὐτοῖς καὶ ζήσονται καὶ οὐ μὴ ἀποθάνωσιν προσπορευομένων αὐτῶν πρὸς τὰ ἅγια τῶν ἁγίων· Ααρων καὶ οἱ υἱοὶ αὐτοῦ προσπορευέσθωσαν καὶ καταστήσουσιν αὐτοὺς ἕκαστον κατὰ τὴν ἀναφορὰν αὐτοῦ,
[19] This do ye 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] καὶ οὐ μὴ εἰσέλθωσιν ἰδεῖν ἐξάπινα τὰ ἅγια καὶ ἀποθανοῦνται.
[20] And so they shall by no means go in to look suddenly upon the holy things, and die.
[21] Καὶ ἐλάλησεν κύριος πρὸς Μωυσῆν λέγων
[21] And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,
[22] Λαβὲ τὴν ἀρχὴν τῶν υἱῶν Γεδσων, καὶ τούτους κατ’ οἴκους πατριῶν αὐτῶν κατὰ δήμους αὐτῶν·
