These then are the sons of Levi by their names: Gershon and Kohath and Merari.

and the sons of Kohath by their families: Amram and Izhar, Hebron and Uzziel;

Of Kohath was the family of the Amramites and the family of the Izharites and 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 were to camp on the southward side of the tabernacle,

“Take a census of the descendants of Kohath from among the sons of Levi, by their families, by their fathers’ households,

This is the work of the descendants of Kohath in the tent of meeting, concerning the most holy things.

When Aaron and his sons have finished covering the holy objects and all the furnishings of the sanctuary, when the camp is to set out, after that the sons of Kohath shall come to carry them, so that they will not touch the holy objects and die. These are the things in the tent of meeting which the sons of Kohath are to carry.

But he did not give any to the sons of Kohath because theirs was the service of the holy objects, which they carried on the shoulder.

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

These are those who were numbered 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.

These are the families of Levi: the family of the Libnites, the family of the Hebronites, the family of the Mahlites, the family of the Mushites, the family of the Korahites. Kohath became the father of Amram.
