04:003:040 And the LORD said unto Moses, Number all the firstborn of
the males of the children of Israel from a month old and upward, and
take the number of their names.
04:003:041 And thou shalt take the Levites for me (I am the LORD)
instead of all the firstborn among the children of Israel; and the
cattle of the Levites instead of all the firstlings among the cattle of
the children of Israel.
04:003:042 And Moses numbered, as the LORD commanded him, all the
firstborn among the children of Israel.
04:003:043 And all the firstborn males by the number of names, from a
month old and upward, of those that were numbered of them, were twenty
and two thousand two hundred and threescore and thirteen.
04:003:044 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
04:003:045 Take the Levites instead of all the firstborn among the
children of Israel, and the cattle of the Levites instead of their
cattle; and the Levites shall be mine: I am the LORD.
04:003:046 And for those that are to be redeemed of the two hundred and
threescore and thirteen of the firstborn of the children of Israel,
which are more than the Levites;
04:003:047 Thou shalt even take five shekels apiece by the poll, after
the shekel of the sanctuary shalt thou take them: (the shekel is twenty
gerahs:)
04:003:048 And thou shalt give the money, wherewith the odd number of
them is to be redeemed, unto Aaron and to his sons.
04:003:049 And Moses took the redemption money of them that were over
and above them that were redeemed by the Levites:
04:003:050 Of the firstborn of the children of Israel took he the
money; a thousand three hundred and threescore and five shekels, after
the shekel of the sanctuary:
04:003:051 And Moses gave the money of them that were redeemed unto
Aaron and to his sons, according to the word of the LORD, as the LORD
commanded Moses.
04:004:001 And the LORD spake unto Moses and unto Aaron, saying,
04:004:002 Take the sum of the sons of Kohath from among the sons of
Levi, after their families, by the house of their fathers,
04:004:003 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.
04:004:004 This shall be the service of the sons of Kohath in the
tabernacle of the congregation, about the most holy things:
04:004:005 And when the camp setteth forward, Aaron shall come, and his
sons, and they shall take down the covering vail, and cover the ark of
testimony with it:
04:004:006 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.
04:004:007 And upon the table of shewbread they shall spread a cloth of
