And these were the sons of Levi by their names: Gershon, and Kohath, and Merari.

And the sons of Kohath by their families: Amram and Izehar, Hebron and Uzziel.

And of Kohath was the family of the Amramites, and the family of the Izeharites, the family of the Hebronites, and the family of the Uzzielites. These were the families of the Kohathites.

The families of the sons of Kohath shall pitch on the side of the tabernacle southward.

Take the sum of the sons of Kohath from among the sons of Levi, according to their families, by their fathers' house,

This shall be the service of the sons of Kohath in the tabernacle of the congregation, the most holy place.

And when Aaron and his sons have made an end of covering the sanctuary, and all the vessels of the sanctuary, when the camp is to set forward, then after that the sons of Kohath shall come to carry it. But they shall not touch any holy thing lest they die. These are the burden of the sons of Kohath in the tabernacle of the congregation.

But to the sons of Kohath he did not give any, because the service of the sanctuary belonging to them was that which they should carry upon their shoulders.

Now Korah, the son of Izhar, the son of Kohath, the son of Levi, took both Dathan and Abiram, the sons of Eliab, and On, the son of Peleth, sons of Reuben;

And these are the numbered ones of the Levites according to their families: of Gershon, the family of the Gershonites; of Kohath, the family of the Kohathites; of Merari, the family of the Merarites.
