6BringH7126 the tribeH4294 of LeviH3878 nearH7126, and presentH5975 them beforeH6440 AaronH175 the priestH3548, that they may ministerH8334 to him. 7And they shall keepH8104 his chargeH4931, and the chargeH4931 of the whole congregationH5712 beforeH6440 the tabernacleH168 of the congregationH4150, to doH5647 the serviceH5656 of the tabernacleH4908. 8And they shall keepH8104 all the instrumentsH3627 of the tabernacleH168 of the congregationH4150, and the chargeH4931 of the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478, to doH5647 the serviceH5656 of the tabernacleH4908. 9And thou shalt giveH5414 the LevitesH3881 to AaronH175 and to his sonsH1121: they are wholly givenH5414 to him out of the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478. 10And thou shalt appointH6485 AaronH175 and his sonsH1121, and they shall wait onH8104 their priest’s officeH3550: and the strangerH2114 that cometh nearH7131 shall be put to deathH4191. 11And the LORDH3068 spokeH1696 to MosesH4872, sayingH559, 12And I, behold, I have takenH3947 the LevitesH3881 from amongH8432 the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 instead of all the firstbornH1060 that openethH6363 the wombH7358 among the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478: therefore the LevitesH3881 shall be mine; 13Because all the firstbornH1060 are mine; for on the dayH3117 that I smoteH5221 all the firstbornH1060 in the landH776 of EgyptH4714 I hallowedH6942 to me all the firstbornH1060 in IsraelH3478, both manH120 and beastH929: mine they shall be: I am the LORDH3068.
14And the LORDH3068 spokeH1696 to MosesH4872 in the wildernessH4057 of SinaiH5514, sayingH559, 15NumberH6485 the childrenH1121 of LeviH3878 after the houseH1004 of their fathersH1, by their familiesH4940: every maleH2145 from a monthH2320 oldH1121 and upwardH4605 shalt thou numberH6485 them. 16And MosesH4872 numberedH6485 them according to the wordH6310 of the LORDH3068, as he was commandedH6680.1
