LEB⁽ⁱ⁾ ⁶ "Take the Levites from the midst of the _⌊Israelites_⌋* and purify them. ⁷ So you will do to them, to purify them: sprinkle on them waters of purification, and _⌊they will shave their whole body_⌋* and wash their garments. ⁸ And they will take a _⌊young bull_⌋* and its grain offering of finely milled flour mixed with oil, and you will take a second _⌊young bull_⌋* as a sin offering. ⁹ You will bring the Levites _⌊before_⌋* the tent of assembly, and you will summon the entire community of the _⌊Israelites_⌋.* ¹⁰ And you will bring the Levites _⌊before Yahweh_⌋,* and the _⌊Israelites_⌋* will lay their hands on the Levites, ¹¹ and _⌊Aaron will offer_⌋* the Levites as a wave offering _⌊before Yahweh_⌋* from the _⌊Israelites_⌋,* and they will do the work of Yahweh. ¹² And the Levites will lay their hands on the head of the one bull and offer it as a sin offering and the other one as a burnt offering to Yahweh, to make atonement for the Levites. ¹³ And you will present the Levites _⌊before_⌋* Aaron and _⌊before_⌋* his sons, and he _⌊will offer_⌋* them as a wave offering to Yahweh. ¹⁴ "And you will separate the Levites from the midst of the _⌊Israelites_⌋,* and the Levites will be for me.
