MSTC⁽ⁱ⁾ ³⁶ And the office of the sons of Merari was the boards of the dwelling and the bars, pillars with the sockets thereof, and all the instruments thereof and all that served thereto: ³⁷ and the pillars of the court round about and their sockets, with their pins and cords. ³⁸ "But on the forefront of the habitation and before the tabernacle of witness eastward, shall Moses and Aaron and his sons pitch and wait on the sanctuary in the stead of the children of Israel. And the stranger that cometh nigh shall die for it." ³⁹ And the whole sum of the Levites which Moses and Aaron numbered, at the commandment of the LORD — throughout their kindreds, even of all the males of a month old and above — was twenty two thousand.
