19 This is what you must do so they will live and not die when they approach the most sacred objects. Aaron and his sons must always go in with them and assign a specific duty or load to each person.
20 The Kohathites must never enter the sanctuary to look at the sacred objects for even a moment, or they will die.”
21 And the lord said to Moses,
22 “Record the names of the members of the clans and families of the Gershonite division of the tribe of Levi.
23 List all the men between the ages of thirty and fifty who are eligible to serve in the Tabernacle.
24 “These Gershonite clans will be responsible for general service and carrying loads.
25 They must carry the curtains of the Tabernacle, the Tabernacle itself with its coverings, the outer covering of fine goatskin leather, and the curtain for the Tabernacle entrance.
