< Numbers 4 >

1 Yahweh spoke to Moses and to Aaron, saying,
Locutusque est Dominus ad Moysen et Aaron, dicens:
2 “Take a census of the sons of Kohath from among the sons of Levi, by their families, by their fathers’ houses,
Tolle summam filiorum Caath de medio Levitarum per domos et familias suas,
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.
a trigesimo anno et supra, usque ad quinquagesimum annum, omnium qui ingrediuntur ut stent et ministrent in tabernaculo fœderis.
4 “This is the service of the sons of Kohath in the Tent of Meeting, regarding the most holy things.
Hic est cultus filiorum Caath: Tabernaculum fœderis, et Sanctum sanctorum
5 When the camp moves forward, Aaron shall go in with his sons; and they shall take down the veil of the screen, cover the ark of the Testimony with it,
ingredientur Aaron et filii eius, quando movenda sunt castra, et deponent velum quod pendet ante fores, involventque eo arcam testimonii,
6 put a covering of sealskin on it, spread a blue cloth over it, and put in its poles.
et operient rursum velamine ianthinarum pellium, extendentque desuper pallium totum hyacinthinum, et inducent vectes.
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.
Mensam quoque propositionis involvent hyacinthino pallio, et ponent cum ea thuribula et mortariola, cyathos et crateras ad liba fundenda: panes semper in ea erunt:
8 They shall spread on them a scarlet cloth, and cover it with a covering of sealskin, and shall put in its poles.
extendentque desuper pallium coccineum, quod rursum operient velamento ianthinarum pellium, et inducent vectes.
9 “They shall take a blue cloth and cover the lamp stand of the light, its lamps, its snuffers, its snuff dishes, and all its oil vessels, with which they minister to it.
Sument et pallium hyacinthinum quo operient candelabrum cum lucernis et forcipibus suis et emunctoriis et cunctis vasis olei, quæ ad cocinnandas lucernas necessaria sunt:
10 They shall put it and all its vessels within a covering of sealskin, and shall put it on the frame.
et super omnia ponent operimentum ianthinarum pellium, et inducent vectes.
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.
Nec non et altare aureum involvent hyacinthino vestimento, et extendent desuper operimentum ianthinarum pellium, inducentque vectes.
12 “They shall take all the vessels of ministry with which they minister in the sanctuary, and put them in a blue cloth, cover them with a covering of sealskin, and shall put them on the frame.
Omnia vasa, quibus ministratur in Sanctuario, involvent hyacinthino pallio, et extendent desuper operimentum ianthinarum pellium, inducentque vectes.
13 “They shall take away the ashes from the altar, and spread a purple cloth on it.
Sed et altare mundabunt cinere, et involvent illud purpureo vestimento,
14 They shall put on it all its vessels with which they minister about it, the fire pans, the meat hooks, the shovels, and the basins—all the vessels of the altar; and they shall spread on it a covering of sealskin, and put in its poles.
ponentque cum eo omnia vasa, quibus in ministerio eius utuntur, id est, ignium receptacula, fuscinulas ac tridentes, uncinos et batilla. Cuncta vasa altaris operient simul velamine ianthinarum pellium, et inducent vectes.
15 “When Aaron 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. The sons of Kohath shall carry these things belonging to the Tent of Meeting.
Cumque involverint Aaron et filii eius Sanctuarium et omnia vasa eius in commotione castrorum, tunc intrabunt filii Caath ut portent involuta: et non tangent vasa Sanctuarii, ne moriantur. Ista sunt onera filiorum Caath in tabernaculo fœderis:
16 “The duty of Eleazar the son of Aaron 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.”
super quos erit Eleazar filius Aaron sacerdotis, ad cuius curam pertinet oleum ad concinnandas lucernas, et compositionis incensum, et sacrificium, quod semper offertur, et oleum unctionis, et quidquid ad cultum tabernaculi pertinet, omniumque vasorum, quæ in Sanctuario sunt.
17 Yahweh spoke to Moses and to Aaron, saying,
Locutusque est Dominus ad Moysen et Aaron, dicens:
18 “Don’t cut off the tribe of the families of the Kohathites from among the Levites;
Nolite perdere populum Caath de medio Levitarum:
19 but do this to them, that they may live, and not die, when they approach the most holy things: Aaron and his sons shall go in and appoint everyone to his service and to his burden;
sed hoc facite eis, ut vivant, et non moriantur, si tetigerint Sancta sanctorum. Aaron et filii eius intrabunt, ipsique disponent opera singulorum, et divident quid portare quis debeat.
20 but they shall not go in to see the sanctuary even for a moment, lest they die.”
Alii nulla curiositate videant quæ sunt in Sanctuario priusquam involvantur, alioquin morientur.
21 Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying,
Locutusque est Dominus ad Moysen, dicens:
22 “Take a census of the sons of Gershon also, by their fathers’ houses, by their families;
Tolle summam etiam filiorum Gerson per domos ac familias et cognationes suas,
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.
a triginta annis et supra, usque ad annos quinquaginta. Numera omnes qui ingrediuntur et ministrant in tabernaculo fœderis.
24 “This is the service of the families of the Gershonites, in serving and in bearing burdens:
Hoc est officium familiæ Gersonitarum,
25 they shall carry the curtains of the tabernacle and the Tent of Meeting, its covering, the covering of sealskin that is on it, the screen for the door of the Tent of Meeting,
ut portent cortinas tabernaculi et tectum fœderis operimentum aliud, et super omnia velamen ianthinum tentoriumque quod pendet in introitu tabernaculi fœderis,
26 the hangings of the court, the screen for the door of the gate of the court which is by the tabernacle and around the altar, their cords, and all the instruments of their service, and whatever shall be done with them. They shall serve in there.
cortinas atrii, et velum in introitu quod est ante tabernaculum. Omnia quæ ad altare pertinent funiculos, et vasa ministerii,
27 At the commandment of Aaron and his sons shall be all the service of the sons of the Gershonites, in all their burden and in all their service; and you shall appoint their duty to them in all their responsibilities.
iubente Aaron et filiis eius, portabunt filii Gerson: et scient singuli cui debeant oneri mancipari.
28 This is the service of the families of the sons of the Gershonites in the Tent of Meeting. Their duty shall be under the hand of Ithamar the son of Aaron the priest.
Hic est cultus familiæ Gersonitarum in tabernaculo fœderis, eruntque sub manu Ithamar filii Aaron sacerdotis.
29 “As for the sons of Merari, you shall count them by their families, by their fathers’ houses;
Filios quoque Merari per familias et domos patrum suorum recensebis
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.
a triginta annis et supra, usque ad annos quinquaginta, omnes qui ingrediuntur ad officium ministerii sui et cultum fœderis testimonii.
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,
Hæc sunt onera eorum: Portabunt tabulas tabernaculi et vectes eius, columnas ac bases earum,
32 the pillars of the court around it, their sockets, their pins, their cords, with all their instruments, and with all their service. You shall appoint the instruments of the duty of their burden to them by name.
columnas quoque atrii per circuitum cum basibus et paxillis et funibus suis. Omnia vasa et supellectilem ad numerum accipient, sicque portabunt.
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 the priest.”
Hoc est officium familiæ Meraritarum et ministerium in tabernaculo fœderis: eruntque sub manu Ithamar filii Aaron sacerdotis.
34 Moses and Aaron and the princes of the congregation counted the sons of the Kohathites by their families, and by their fathers’ houses,
Recensuerunt igitur Moyses et Aaron et principes synagogæ filios Caath per cognationes et domos patrum suorum
35 from thirty years old and upward even to fifty years old, everyone who entered into the service for work in the Tent of Meeting.
a triginta annis et supra, usque ad annum quinquagesimum, omnes qui ingrediuntur ad ministerium tabernaculi fœderis:
36 Those who were counted of them by their families were two thousand seven hundred fifty.
et inventi sunt duo millia septingenti quinquaginta.
37 These are those who were counted of the families of the Kohathites, all who served in the Tent of Meeting, whom Moses and Aaron counted according to the commandment of Yahweh by Moses.
Hic est numerus populi Caath qui intrant tabernaculum fœderis: hos numeravit Moyses et Aaron iuxta sermonem Domini per manum Moysi.
38 Those who were counted of the sons of Gershon, by their families, and by their fathers’ houses,
Numerati sunt et filii Gerson per cognationes et domos patrum suorum,
39 from thirty years old and upward even to fifty years old—everyone who entered into the service for work in the Tent of Meeting,
a triginta annos et supra, usque ad quinquagesimum annum, omnes qui ingrediuntur ut ministrent in tabernaculo fœderis:
40 even those who were counted of them, by their families, by their fathers’ houses, were two thousand six hundred thirty.
et inventi sunt duo millia sexcenti triginta.
41 These are those who were counted of the families of the sons of Gershon, all who served in the Tent of Meeting, whom Moses and Aaron counted according to the commandment of Yahweh.
Hic est populus Gersonitarum, quos numeraverunt Moyses et Aaron iuxta verbum Domini.
42 Those who were counted of the families of the sons of Merari, by their families, by their fathers’ houses,
Numerati sunt et filii Merari per cognationes et domos patrum suorum,
43 from thirty years old and upward even to fifty years old—everyone who entered into the service for work in the Tent of Meeting,
a triginta annis et supra, usque ad annum quinquagesimum, omnes qui ingrediuntur ad explendos ritus tabernaculi fœderis:
44 even those who were counted of them by their families, were three thousand two hundred.
et inventi sunt tria millia ducenti.
45 These are those who were counted of the families of the sons of Merari, whom Moses and Aaron counted according to the commandment of Yahweh by Moses.
Hic est numerus filiorum Merari, quos recensuerunt Moyses et Aaron iuxta imperium Domini per manum Moysi.
46 All those who were counted of the Levites whom Moses and Aaron and the princes of Israel counted, by their families and by their fathers’ houses,
Omnes qui recensiti sunt de Levitis, et quos recenseri fecit ad nomen Moyses et Aaron, et principes Israel per cognationes et domos patrum suorum,
47 from thirty years old and upward even to fifty years old, everyone who entered in to do the work of service and the work of bearing burdens in the Tent of Meeting,
a triginta annis et supra, usque ad annum quinquagesimum, ingredientes ad ministerium tabernaculi, et onera portanda,
48 even those who were counted of them, were eight thousand five hundred eighty.
fuerunt simul octo millia quingenti octoginta.
49 According to the commandment of Yahweh they were counted by Moses, everyone according to his service and according to his burden. Thus they were counted by him, as Yahweh commanded Moses.
Iuxta verbum Domini recensuit eos Moyses, unumquemque iuxta officium et onera sua, sicut præceperat ei Dominus.
