Lexham English Bible
14 they will put on it all the vessels with which they serve, the fire pans, forks, shovels, and bowls—all the vessels of the altar. They will spread on it a covering of fine leather;[a] and they will place its poles. 15 And when Aaron and his sons have finished covering the sanctuary and all the vessels of the sanctuary when the camp sets out, the descendants[b] of Kohath will come after to carry these, but they must not touch the sanctuary, or they will die. These are the load of the descendants[c] of Kohath in the tent of assembly.
16 “Eleazar son of Aaron the priest is to supervise the oil of the light source, the incense, the regular grain offering,[d] the oil of anointment, the supervision of all the tabernacle and all that is in it, in the sanctuary and in its vessels.”
