And when Aaron and his sons have made an end of covering the (h) sanctuary, and all the vessels of the sanctuary, as the camp is to set forward; after that, the sons of Kohath shall come to bear [it]: but they shall not (i) touch [any] holy thing, lest they die. These [things are] the burden of the sons of Kohath in the tabernacle of the congregation.
(h) That is, in folding up the things of the sanctuary, as the ark, etc.
(i) Before it is covered.
