Take the sum of the sons of Kohath from among the sons of Levi, after their families, by the house of their fathers,
3 三十歳以上五十歳以下で、務につき、会見の幕屋で働くことのできる者を、ことごとく数えなさい。
From thirty years old and upward even until fifty years old, all that enter into the host, to do the work in the tabernacle of the congregation.
4 コハテの子たちの、会見の幕屋の務は、いと聖なる物にかかわるものであって、次のとおりである。
This shall be the service of the sons of Kohath in the tabernacle of the congregation, about the most holy things:
5 すなわち、宿営の進む時に、アロンとその子たちとは、まず、はいって、隔ての垂幕を取りおろし、それをもって、あかしの箱をおおい、
And when the camp sets forward, Aaron shall come, and his sons, and they shall take down the covering veil, and cover the ark of testimony with it:
6 その上に、じゅごんの皮のおおいを施し、またその上に総青色の布をうちかけ、環にさおをさし入れる。
And shall put thereon the covering of badgers’ skins, and shall spread over it a cloth wholly of blue, and shall put in the staves thereof.
7 また供えのパンの机の上には、青色の布をうちかけ、その上に、さら、乳香を盛る杯、鉢、および灌祭の瓶を並べ、また絶やさず供えるパンを置き、
And on the table of show bread they shall spread a cloth of blue, and put thereon the dishes, and the spoons, and the bowls, and covers to cover with: and the continual bread shall be thereon:
8 緋色の布をその上にうちかけ、じゅごんの皮のおおいをもって、これをおおい、さおをさし入れる。
And they shall spread on them a cloth of scarlet, and cover the same with a covering of badgers’ skins, and shall put in the staves thereof.
9 また青色の布を取って、燭台とそのともし火ざら、芯切りばさみ、芯取りざら、およびそれに用いるもろもろの油の器をおおい、
And they shall take a cloth of blue, and cover the candlestick of the light, and his lamps, and his tongs, and his firepans, and all the oil vessels thereof, with which they minister to it:
10 じゅごんの皮のおおいのうちに、燭台とそのもろもろの器をいれて、担架に載せる。
And they shall put it and all the vessels thereof within a covering of badgers’ skins, and shall put it on a bar.
11 また、金の祭壇の上に青色の布をうちかけ、じゅごんの皮のおおいで、これをおおい、そのさおをさし入れる。
And on the golden altar they shall spread a cloth of blue, and cover it with a covering of badgers’ skins, and shall put to the staves thereof:
12 また聖所の務に用いる務の器をみな取り、青色の布に包み、じゅごんの皮のおおいで、これをおおって、担架に載せる。
And they shall take all the instruments of ministry, with which they minister in the sanctuary, and put them in a cloth of blue, and cover them with a covering of badgers’ skins, and shall put them on a bar:
13 また祭壇の灰を取り去って、紫の布をその祭壇の上にうちかけ、
And they shall take away the ashes from the altar, and spread a purple cloth thereon:
14 その上に、務をするのに用いるもろもろの器、すなわち、火ざら、肉さし、十能、鉢、および祭壇のすべての器を載せ、またその上に、じゅごんの皮のおおいをうちかけ、そしてさおをさし入れる。
And they shall put on it all the vessels thereof, with which they minister about it, even the censers, the meat hooks, and the shovels, and the basins, all the vessels of the altar; and they shall spread on it a covering of badgers’ skins, and put to the staves of it.
15 宿営の進むとき、アロンとその子たちとが、聖所と聖所のすべての器をおおうことを終ったならば、その後コハテの子たちは、それを運ぶために、はいってこなければならない。しかし、彼らは聖なる物に触れてはならない。触れると死ぬであろう。会見の幕屋のうちの、これらの物は、コハテの子たちが運ぶものである。
And when Aaron and his sons have made an end of covering the sanctuary, and all the vessels of the sanctuary, as the camp is to set forward; after that, the sons of Kohath shall come to bear it: but they shall not touch any holy thing, lest they die. These things are the burden of the sons of Kohath in the tabernacle of the congregation.
16 祭司アロンの子エレアザルは、ともし油、香ばしい薫香、絶やさず供える素祭および注ぎ油をつかさどり、また幕屋の全体と、そのうちにあるすべての聖なる物、およびその所のもろもろの器をつかさどらなければならない」。
And to the office of Eleazar the son of Aaron the priest pertains the oil for the light, and the sweet incense, and the daily meat offering, and the anointing oil, and the oversight of all the tabernacle, and of all that therein is, in the sanctuary, and in the vessels thereof.
17 主はまた、モーセとアロンに言われた、
And the LORD spoke to Moses and to Aaron saying,
18 「あなたがたはコハテびとの一族を、レビびとのうちから絶えさせてはならない。
Cut you not off the tribe of the families of the Kohathites from among the Levites:
19 彼らがいと聖なる物に近づく時、死なないで、命を保つために、このようにしなさい、すなわち、アロンとその子たちが、まず、はいり、彼らをおのおのその働きにつかせ、そのになうべきものを取らせなさい。
But thus do to them, that they may live, and not die, when they approach to the most holy things: Aaron and his sons shall go in, and appoint them every one to his service and to his burden:
20 しかし、彼らは、はいって、ひと目でも聖なる物を見てはならない。見るならば死ぬであろう」。
But they shall not go in to see when the holy things are covered, lest they die.
