Leviticus 10:6-20

6Then MosesH4872 saidH559 to AaronH175 and to his sonsH1121 EleazarH499 and IthamarH385, “1Do not 2uncoverH6544 your headsH7218 norH3808 tearH6533 your clothesH899, so that you do not dieH4191 and He does not 3becomeH7107 wrathfulH7107 againstH5921 allH3605 the congregationH5712. But your 4kinsmenH251, the entireH3605 houseH1004 of IsraelH3478, shall weepH1058 for the burningH8316 whichH834 the LordH3068 has 5broughtH8313 aboutH8313. 7You shall not even goH3318 outH3318 from the doorwayH6607 of the tentH168 of meetingH4150, orH6435 you will dieH4191; for 6the Lord’sH3068 anointingH4888 oilH8081 is upon you.” So they didH6213 according to the wordH1697 of MosesH4872.

8The LordH3068 then spokeH1696 to AaronH175, sayingH559, 9“7Do not drinkH8354 wineH3196 or strongH7941 drinkH7941, neither you norH408 your sonsH1121 with you, when you comeH935 into the tentH168 of meetingH4150, so that you do not dieH4191--it is a permanentH5769 statuteH2708 throughout your generationsH1755-- 10and 8to makeH914 aH914 distinctionH914 betweenH996 the holyH6944 and the profaneH2455, and betweenH996 the uncleanH2931 and the cleanH2889, 11and 9so as to teachH3384 the sonsH1121 of IsraelH3478 allH3605 the statutesH2706 whichH834 the LordH3068 has spokenH1696 to them throughH3027 MosesH4872.”

12Then MosesH4872 spokeH1696 to AaronH175, and to his survivingH3498 sonsH1121, 10EleazarH499 and IthamarH385, “11TakeH3947 the grain offeringH4503 that is leftH3498 overH3498 from the Lord’sH3068 offeringsH801 byH801 fireH801 and eatH398 it as unleavenedH4682 breadH4682 besideH681 the altarH4196, for it is mostH6944 holyH6944. 13You shall eatH398 it in a holyH6918 placeH4725, becauseH3588 it is your allottedH2706 portionH2706 and your sons’H1121 allottedH2706 portionH2706 from the Lord’sH3068 offeringsH801 byH801 fireH801; for soH3651 I have been commandedH6680. 1412The breastH2373 of the waveH8573 offeringH8573, however, and the thighH7785 of the offeringH8641 you may eatH398 in a cleanH2889 placeH4725, you and your sonsH1121 and your daughtersH1323 with you; for they have been givenH5414 as your allottedH2706 portionH2706 and your sons’H1121 allottedH2706 portionH2706 from the sacrificesH2077 of the peaceH8002 offeringsH8002 of the sonsH1121 of IsraelH3478. 15They shall bringH935 13the thighH7785 offeredH8641 byH8641 liftingH8641 upH8641 and the breastH2373 offeredH8573 byH8573 wavingH8573, alongH5921 withH5921 the offeringsH801 byH801 fireH801 of the portionsH2459 of fatH2459, to presentH5130 as a waveH8573 offeringH8573 beforeH6440 the LordH3068; so it shall be a thingH2706 perpetuallyH5769 dueH2706 you and your sonsH1121 with you, justH3512 asH3512 the LordH3068 has commandedH6680.”

16But MosesH4872 searchedH1875 carefullyH1875 for the 14goatH5795 of the sinH2403 offeringH2403, and beholdH2009, it had been burnedH8313! So he wasH7107 angryH7107 with Aaron’sH175 survivingH3498 sonsH1121 EleazarH499 and IthamarH385, sayingH559, 17“WhyH4069 15did you not eatH398 the sinH2403 offeringH2403 at the 16holyH6944 placeH4725? For it is mostH6944 holyH6944, and 17He gaveH5414 it to you to takeH5375 away 18the guiltH5771 of the congregationH5712, to makeH3722 atonementH3722 for them beforeH6440 the LordH3068. 18BeholdH2005, 19since its bloodH1818 had not been broughtH935 insideH6441, into the sanctuaryH6944, you certainlyH398 should have 20eatenH398 it in the sanctuaryH6944, justH3512 asH3512 I commandedH6680!” 19But AaronH175 saidH1696 to MosesH4872, “BeholdH2005, this very dayH3117 they 21presentedH7126 their sinH2403 offeringH2403 and their burntH5930 offeringH5930 beforeH6440 the LordH3068. When things like theseH428 happenedH7122 to me, if I had eatenH398 a sinH2403 offeringH2403 todayH3117, would it have beenH3190 goodH3190 in the sightH5869 of the LordH3068?” 20When MosesH4872 heardH8085 that, it wasH3190 goodH3190 in his sightH5869.
