15 “Aaron and his sons must finish covering the holy place+ and all the equipment of the holy place when the camp is departing. Then the sons of Koʹhath will come in to carry them,+ but they must not touch the holy place or they will die.+ These things are the responsibility* of the sons of Koʹhath in connection with the tent of meeting.

24 This is what the families of the Gerʹshon·ites are assigned to care for and to carry:+ 25 They will carry the tent cloths of the tabernacle,+ the tent of meeting, its covering and the sealskin covering that is on top over it,+ the screen* of the entrance of the tent of meeting,+ 26 the hanging curtains of the courtyard,+ the screen* of the entrance of the courtyard+ that surrounds the tabernacle and the altar, their tent cords and all their utensils and everything used in its service. This is their assignment.

31 This is what they are responsible for carrying+ in connection with their service at the tent of meeting: the panel frames+ of the tabernacle, its bars,+ its pillars,+ its socket pedestals;+ 32 the pillars+ of the surrounding courtyard, their socket pedestals,+ their tent pins,+ and their tent cords together with all their equipment and all the service connected with these. You will assign to them by name the equipment they are responsible for carrying. 33 This is how the families of the sons of Me·rarʹi+ are to serve at the tent of meeting, under the direction of Ithʹa·mar the son of Aaron the priest.”+
