“Take a census of the Gershonites as well, by their families and clans,
Numbers 4:22 · BSB
The verses around it, from Numbers 4.
18 “Do not allow the Kohathite tribal clans to be cut off from among the Levites.
19 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.
20 But the Kohathites are not to go in and look at the holy objects, even for a moment, or they will die.”
21 And the LORD said to Moses,
22 “Take a census of the Gershonites as well, by their families and clans,
23 from thirty to fifty years old, counting everyone who comes to serve in the work at the Tent of Meeting.
24 This is the service of the Gershonite clans regarding work and transport:
25 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,
26 the curtains of the courtyard, and the curtains for the entrance at the gate of the courtyard that surrounds the tabernacle and altar, along with their ropes and all the equipment for their service. The Gershonites will do all that needs to be done with these items.
