22Let the sons of Gershon be numbered by families, in the order of their fathers' houses;
23All those from thirty to fifty years old who are able to do the work of the Tent of meeting.
24This is to be the work of the Gershonites, the things they are to do and take up.
25They are to take up the curtains of the House, and the Tent of meeting with its cover and the leather cover over it, and the hangings 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, with the cords and all the things used for them; whatever is necessary for these, they are to do.
27From the mouth of Aaron and his sons the Gershonites will have word about all the things they are to do and take up; you are to give them their orders.
28This is the work of the family of the Gershonites in the Tent of meeting, and they will be under the direction of Ithamar, the son of Aaron the priest.
