24The chief of the Gershonites is Eliasaph, the son of Lael.
25In the Tent of meeting, the Gershonites are to have the care of the House, and the Tent with its cover, and the veil for the door of the Tent of meeting,
26And the hangings for the open space round the House and the altar, and the curtain for its doorway, and all the cords needed for its use.
27From Kohath come the Amramites and the Izharites and the Hebronites and the Uzzielites; these are the families of the Kohathites.
28Those who were numbered of them, the males from one month old and over, were eight thousand, six hundred, who were responsible for the care of the holy place.
29The tents of the Kohathites are to be placed on the south side of the House.
