Numbers 4:1-12 ▼

1 And the Lorde spake vnto Moyses and Aaron, saying:

2 Take the summe of the chyldren of Caath fro among the sonnes of Leui, after their kinredes and houses of their fathers:

3 From thirtie yeres and aboue, vntill fiftie, all that enter into the hoast for to do the worke in the tabernacle of the congregation.

4 This shalbe the office of the chyldren of Caath in the tabernacle of the congregation, about the most holy.

5 And when the hoast remoueth, Aaron and his sonnes shall come and take downe the couering vayle, and wrap the arke of wytnesse in it:

6 And shall put thereon a coueryng of Badgers skinnes, and shall spreade vppon it a cloth that is altogether of blew silke, and put in the barres therof.

7 And vpon the shewe table, they shall spreade abrode a cloth of blew silke, and put thereon the dishes, incense cuppes, and goblets, and pottes to powre with: and there shalbe bread thereon continually.

8 And they shall spreade vpon them a couering of skarlet, and couer the same with a couering of Badgers skinnes, and put in the barres thereof.

9 And they shall take a cloth of blewe silke, and couer the candelsticke of light, with his lampes, snuffers, and censars, and all the oyle vessels whiche they occupie about it.

10 And they shall put both it and all the vessels thereof, within a coueryng of Badgers skinnes, and put it vpon a barre.

11 And vpon the golden aulter, they shall spreade a cloth of blewe silke, and couer it with a couering of Badgers skinnes, and put to the barres therof.

12 And they shall take all the instrumentes wherewith they minister in the sanctuarie, and put a cloth of blew silke vpon them, and couer them with a couering of Badgers skynnes, and put them on a barre.
