4. This is the work of the descendants of Kohath in the tent of assembly, concerning the holiness of the sanctuary:
5. When setting out the camp, Aaron and his sons will go and lower the curtain of the covering and cover with it the ark of the testimony.
6. They will put on it a covering of fine leather, and they will spread a cloth of perfect blue over it, and they will place its poles.
7. And over the table of the presence they will spread out a blue cloth and put on it the plates, dishes, and libation bowls, and the pitchers of the libation; and the bread of continuity will be on it.
8. They will spread over it a scarlet cloth, and they will cover it with a covering of fine leather, and they will place its poles.
9. They will take a blue cloth and cover the lampstand for the light source, its lamps, a pair of its tongs, its small pans, and all the vessels of its oil with which they attend to it.
