Numbers 3:44-51

Rotherham(i) 44 Then spake Yahweh unto Moses, saying:–– 45 Take the Levites, instead of all the firstborn among the sons of Israel, and the cattle of the Levites, instead of their cattle,––so shall the Levites, belong unto me, me Yahweh; 46 and, as the ransom of the two hundred and seventy–three,––who are more than the Levites, of the firstborn of the sons of Israel, 47 thou shalt take five shekels apiece, by the poll,––by the shekel of the sanctuary, shalt thou take it, twenty gerahs to the shekel; 48 and shalt give the silver to Aaron, and to his sons,––as the ransom of them that are in excess over them. 49 So Moses took the redemption silver from them who were in excess over them who were redeemed by the Levites: 50 from the firstborn of the sons of Israel, took he the silver,––a thousand, three hundred, and sixty–five shekels, by the shekel of the sanctuary, 51 And Moses gave the redemption silver to Aaron and to his sons, at the bidding of Yahweh,––As Yahweh commanded Moses.
