Numbers 3:27-32 - The Numbering Of The Kohathites
27 And of Kohath came the kindred of the Amramites and the kindred of the Izharites and of the Hebronites and of the Uzzielites: And these are the kindreds of the Kohathites. 28 And the number of all the males from a month old and above, was eight thousand and six hundred: which waited on the holy place. 29 And the kindred of the children of Kohath, pitched on the south side of the dwelling. 30 And the captain in the most ancient house of the kindreds of the Kohathites, was Elizaphan the son of Uzziel; 31 and their office was to keep the ark, the table, the candlestick and the altar, and the holy vessels to minister with, and the veil with all that served thereto. 32 And Eleazar the son of Aaron the priest, was captain over all the captains of the Levites, and had the oversight of them that waited upon the holy things.
