Leviticus 10 The sons of Aaron, Nadab and Abihu, each took his fire-pan, put fire in them, placed incense on it and came near before Yahweh with alien fire such as He had not instructed them.

CLV⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ The sons of Aaron, Nadab and Abihu, each took his fire-pan, put fire in them, placed incense on it and came near before Yahweh with alien fire such as He had not instructed them. ² Hence fire came forth from before Yahweh and devoured them, and they died before Yahweh. ³ Then Moses said to Aaron:That is what Yahweh spoke of, saying:Among those near Me shall I be hallowed, and in the presence of all the people shall I be glorified. Aaron was still;" ⁴ and Moses called to Mishael and to Elzaphan, sons of Uzziel, uncle of Aaron, and said to them:Come near, and carry your brothers from the presence of the holy place outside the camp. ⁵ So they came near and carried them in their tunics outside the camp, just as Moses had spoken. ⁶ Then Moses said to Aaron and to Eleazar and to Ithamar, his sons:Do not dishevel your heads' hair and do not rip your garments so that you may not die, lest He be wrathful with the whole congregation. Yet your brothers, all the house of Israel, they may lament over the burning which Yahweh has burned. ⁷ And from the opening of the tent of appointment you shall not come forth lest you die, for the anointing oil of Yahweh is on you. So they did according to the words of Moses. ⁸ Yahweh spoke to Aaron saying: ⁹ Do not drink wine or intoxicant, you or your sons with you, when you come into the tent of appointment, so that you may not die. It shall be an eonian statute throughout your generations, ¹⁰ to differentiate between the holy and the profane, and between the unclean and the clean, ¹¹ and to direct the sons of Israel in all the statutes which Yahweh has spoken to them by means of Moses. ¹² Moses spoke to Aaron and to Eleazar and to Ithamar, his sons who were left:Take the approach present, the rest of the fire offerings of Yahweh, and eat it unleavened beside the altar, for it is a holy of holies. ¹³ You will eat it in a holy place, for it is your dole and your sons' dole from the fire offerings of Yahweh, for thus have I been instructed. ¹⁴ But the chest of the wave offering and the leg of the heave offering shall you eat in a clean place, you and your sons and your daughters with you, for as your dole and your sons' dole are they given from the sacrifices of peace offerings of the sons of Israel. ¹⁵ The leg of the heave offering and the chest of the wave offering on the fire offerings of the fat portions shall they bring to wave as a wave offering before Yahweh. And it will become yours and your sons' with you as an eonian dole just as Yahweh has given instructions. ¹⁶ Now as to the hairy goat of the sin offering, Moses inquired, yea inquired, but behold, it had been burned up. He was wrathful at Eleazar and at Ithamar, the sons of Aaron who were left, saying. ¹⁷ For what reason did you not eat the sin offering in the holy place? For it was a holy of holies, and He gave it to you to bear the depravity of the congregation, to make a propitiatory shelter over them before Yahweh. ¹⁸ Behold, its blood was not brought to the holy place inside. You should have eaten, yea eaten it in the holy place, just as I have given instructions. ¹⁹ Aaron spoke to Moses:Behold, today they brought near their sin offering and their ascent offering before Yahweh, yet meeting me are such things as these; and had I eaten the sin offering today, would it be good in the eyes of Yahweh? ²⁰ When Moses heard this, it was good in his eyes.
