Formal Translation When Aaron and his sons finish covering the sanctuary and all the vessels of the sanctuary, as the camp sets out, after that the sons of Kohath shall come to carry them; but they must not touch the sanctuary, lest they die. These are the burdens of the sons of Kohath in the tent of meeting. |
15. Dynamic Translation After Aaron and his sons have finished covering the sanctuary and all its vessels, when the camp moves out, then the Kohathites are to come and carry them—but they must not touch the holy things, or they will die. These duties belong to the Kohathites in the tent of meeting. |
