Ista sunt onera filiorum Caath in tabernaculo fœderis:

Aaron and his sons shall go in, and they shall appoint every man his work, and shall divide the burdens that every man is to carry.Ma affinché eglino non periscano, ove vengano a toccare le cose sante, fate così: Aronne, ei suoi figliuoli entrino (nel santuario), ed ei preparino a ciascheduno il loro incarico, e spartiscano quello che gli altri debbono portare.but doe this to them, that they may liue, and not die, if they touch Sancta sanctorum. Aaron and his sonnes shal enter, and they shal dispose the charges of euerie one, and shal diuide what euerie one must carie.sed hoc facite eis, ut vivant, et non moriantur, si tetigerint Sancta sanctorum. Aaron et filii ejus intrabunt, ipsique disponent opera singulorum, et divident quid portare quis debeat. 20Let not others by any curiosity see the things that are in the sanctuary before they be wrapped up, otherwise they shall die.Gli altri non si lascin portare dalla curiosità a mirare le cose, che sono nel santuario, prima che sieno involte, altrimenti periranno.Let others by no curiositie see the thinges that are in the Sanctuarie before they be wrapped vp, otherwise they shal die.Alii nulla curiositate videant quæ sunt in sanctuario priusquam involvantur, alioquin morientur.
