They are to take all the utensils for serving in the sanctuary, place them in a blue cloth, cover them with fine leather, and put them on the carrying frame.

…and place on it all the vessels used to serve there: the firepans, meat forks, shovels, and sprinkling bowls—all the equipment of the altar. They are to spread over it a covering of fine leather and insert the poles.

When Aaron and his sons have finished covering the holy objects and all their equipment, as soon as the camp is ready to move, the Kohathites shall come and do the carrying. But they must not touch the holy objects, or they will die. These are the transportation duties of the Kohathites regarding the Tent of Meeting.

In order that they may live and not die when they come near the most holy things, do this for them: Aaron and his sons are to go in and assign each man his task and what he is to carry.

But the Kohathites are not to go in and look at the holy objects, even for a moment, or they will die.”

They are to carry the curtains of the tabernacle, the Tent of Meeting with the covering of fine leather over it, the curtains for the entrance to the Tent of Meeting,

Each man’s sacred gifts are his own, but whatever he gives to the priest will belong to the priest.”

“Tell Aaron and his sons: This is how you are to bless the Israelites. Say to them:

“Speak to Aaron and tell him: ‘When you set up the seven lamps, they are to light the area in front of the lampstand.’”

Then have them take a young bull with its grain offering of fine flour mixed with oil, and you are to take a second young bull for a sin offering.

You are to present the Levites before the LORD and have the Israelites lay their hands upon them.

And the Levites are to lay their hands on the heads of the bulls, and offer to the LORD one as a sin offering and the other as a burnt offering, to make atonement for the Levites.

You are to have the Levites stand before Aaron and his sons and then present them before the LORD as a wave offering.

After that, they may assist their brothers in fulfilling their duties at the Tent of Meeting, but they themselves are not to do the work. This is how you are to assign responsibilities to the Levites.”

“The Israelites are to observe the Passover at its appointed time.

You are to observe it at the appointed time, at twilight on the fourteenth day of this month, in accordance with its statutes and ordinances.”

…and said to Moses, “We are unclean because of a dead body, but why should we be excluded from presenting the LORD’s offering with the other Israelites at the appointed time?”

Such people are to observe it at twilight on the fourteenth day of the second month. They are to eat the lamb, together with unleavened bread and bitter herbs;

When both are sounded, the whole congregation is to assemble before you at the entrance to the Tent of Meeting.

But if only one is sounded, then the leaders, the heads of the clans of Israel, are to gather before you.

When you sound short blasts, the camps that lie on the east side are to set out.

When you sound the short blasts a second time, the camps that lie on the south side are to set out. The blasts are to signal them to set out.

When you sound the short blasts a second time, the camps that lie on the south side are to set out. The blasts are to signal them to set out.

To convene the assembly, you are to sound long blasts, not short ones.

The sons of Aaron, the priests, are to sound the trumpets. This shall be a permanent statute for you and the generations to come.

And on your joyous occasions, your appointed feasts, and the beginning of each month, you are to blow the trumpets over your burnt offerings and peace offerings to serve as a reminder for you before your God. I am the LORD your God.”

Then Moses said to Hobab, the son of Moses’ father-in-law Reuel the Midianite, “We are setting out for the place of which the LORD said: ‘I will give it to you.’ Come with us, and we will treat you well, for the LORD has promised good things to Israel.”

See what the land is like and whether its people are strong or weak, few or many.

Is the land where they live good or bad? Are the cities where they dwell open camps or fortifications?

Is the soil fertile or unproductive? Are there trees in it or not? Be courageous and bring back some of the fruit of the land.” (It was the season for the first ripe grapes.)

Nevertheless, the people living in the land are strong, and the cities are large and fortified. We even saw the descendants of Anak there.

So they gave the Israelites a bad report about the land that they had spied out: “The land we explored devours its inhabitants, and all the people we saw there are great in stature.

I will strike them with a plague and destroy them—and I will make you into a nation greater and mightier than they are.”

And they will tell it to the inhabitants of this land. They have already heard that You, O LORD, are in the midst of this people, that You, O LORD, have been seen face to face, that Your cloud stands over them, and that You go before them in a pillar of cloud by day and a pillar of fire by night.

“Speak to the Israelites and tell them that throughout the generations to come they are to make for themselves tassels for the corners of their garments, with a blue cord on each tassel.

You, Korah, and all your followers are to do as follows: Take censers,

…and tomorrow you are to place fire and incense in them in the presence of the LORD. Then the man the LORD chooses will be the one who is holy. It is you sons of Levi who have taken too much upon yourselves!”

He has brought you near, you and all your fellow Levites, but you are seeking the priesthood as well.

And Moses said to Korah, “You and all your followers are to appear before the LORD tomorrow—you and they and Aaron.

Each man is to take his censer, place incense in it, and present it before the LORD—250 censers. You and Aaron are to present your censers as well.”

“Tell Eleazar son of Aaron the priest to remove the censers from the flames and to scatter the coals far away, because the censers are holy.

Then the Israelites declared to Moses, “Look, we are perishing! We are lost; we are all lost!

Then the Israelites declared to Moses, “Look, we are perishing! We are lost; we are all lost!

The Levites are to perform the work of the Tent of Meeting, and they must bear their iniquity. This is a permanent statute for the generations to come. The Levites will not receive an inheritance among the Israelites.

Then God came to Balaam and asked, “Who are these men with you?”

But God said to Balaam, “Do not go with them. You are not to curse this people, for they are blessed.”

But God said to Balaam, “Do not go with them. You are not to curse this people, for they are blessed.”

But the angel of the LORD said to Balaam, “Go with the men, but you are to speak only what I tell you.” So Balaam went with the princes of Balak.

…and he lifted up an oracle, saying: “This is the prophecy of Balaam son of Beor, the prophecy of a man whose eyes are open,
