⁴⁸ And their brethren the Levites are put to all the service of the tabernacle of the house of Elohim.

¹ These are the genealogical records of Aaron and Moses, on the day Yahweh spoke with Moses on Mount Sinai. ² And these were the names of the sons of Aaron:the firstborn Nadab, then Abihu, Eleazar and Ithamar. ³ These were the names of the sons of Aaron, the anointed priests, whose hands he filled to serve as priests. ⁴ Yet Nadab and Abihu died before Yahweh when they brought near alien fire before Yahweh in the wilderness of Sinai. They did not come to have sons, so Eleazar and Ithamar served as priests in the presence of Aaron their father.

⁵ Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying. ⁶ Take the Levites from the midst of the sons of Israel and cleanse them. ⁷ Thus shall you do to them to cleanse them:spatter water of purification from sin over them, let them pass a razor over all their flesh, let them rinse their garments and so cleanse themselves. ⁸ They will take a young bull (a calf of the herd) and its approach present of flour mingled with oil; then you shall take a second young bull (a calf of the herd) for a sin offering. ⁹ You will bring near the Levites before the tent of appointment and assemble the whole congregation of the sons of Israel. ¹⁰ When you bring near the Levites before Yahweh, then the sons of Israel will support their hands on the Levites, ¹¹ and Aaron will wave the Levites as a wave offering before Yahweh from the sons of Israel, so that they will come to serve in the service of Yahweh. ¹² And the Levites, they shall support their hands on the heads of the young bulls. Then offer the one as a sin offering and the other as an ascent offering to Yahweh to make a propitiatory shelter over the Levites. ¹³ Have the Levites stand before Aaron and before his sons, and wave them as a wave offering before Yahweh. ¹⁴ Thus you will separate the Levites from the midst of the sons of Israel, so that the Levites become Mine. ¹⁵ And afterward the Levites shall come to serve in the service of the tent of appointment when you have cleansed them and waved them as a wave offering. ¹⁶ For they are the ones being given, yea given to Me from the midst of the sons of Israel; instead of everyone opening up the womb, every firstborn of the sons of Israel, I have taken them for Myself;" ¹⁷ for Mine is every firstborn among the sons of Israel among human and among beast. On the day I smote every firstborn in the land of Egypt I sanctified them for Myself. ¹⁸ So I shall take the Levites instead of every firstborn among the sons of Israel, ¹⁹ and give the Levites from the midst of the sons of Israel as a gift to Aaron and to his sons to serve in the service on behalf of the sons of Israel in the tent of appointment and to make a separating shelter for the sons of Israel so that no stroke may come among the sons of Israel when the sons of Israel come close to the holy place. ²⁰ Moses, Aaron and the whole congregation of the sons of Israel dealt with the Levites according to all that Yahweh had instructed Moses as to the Levites. So the sons of Israel dealt with them. ²¹ The Levites purified themselves from sin and rinsed their garments, and Aaron waved them as a wave offering before Yahweh; then Aaron made a propitiatory shelter over them to cleanse them. ²² And afterward the Levites came to serve their service in the tent of appointment before Aaron and before his sons. Just as Yahweh had instructed Moses concerning the Levites, so they dealt with them. ²³ Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying. ²⁴ This is what applies to the Levites. From twenty-five years old and upward may one come to enlist with the Levitical host in the service of the tent of appointment. ²⁵ And from fifty years old shall one retire from the active service in the Levitical host and shall serve no longer; ²⁶ yet he may minister to his brothers in the tent of appointment, so as to keep guard, though in active service he shall not serve. Thus shall you deal with the Levites in regard to their charges.

⁹ Is it too little a thing for you that the Elohim of Israel has separated you from the congregation of Israel to bring you near to Him to serve in the service of the tabernacle of Yahweh and to stand before the congregation to minister to them? ¹⁰ He brought you near and all your brothers, the sons of Levi, with you. Yet now you seek even the priesthood!"

¹ Yahweh said to Aaron:You and your sons and your father's house with you shall bear any depravity committed against the sanctuary, and you and your sons with you shall bear any depravity in connection with your priesthood. ² Moreover, bring near with you your brothers of the stock of Levi, the tribe of your father, that they may be obligated to you and may minister to you when you and your sons with you are before the tent of the testimony. ³ They will keep guard of you and guard of the entire tent; only to the furnishings of the holy place and to the altar they shall not come near so that they may not die, both they and you. ⁴ They will be obligated to you and will keep guard of the tent of appointment for all the service of the tent. Yet no alien may come near to you. ⁵ You will keep guard of the holy place and guard of the altar so that no more wrath shall come on the sons of Israel. ⁶ As for Me, behold, I have taken your brothers, the Levites, from the midst of the sons of Israel as a gift for you, given to Yahweh to serve in the service of the tent of appointment. ⁷ Yet you and your sons with you shall keep your priesthood as to every matter of the altar and to that inside the curtain. Thus you will serve in the service. As a gift am I giving your priesthood. Yet the alien who comes near shall be put to death. ⁸ Yahweh spoke to Aaron:As for Me, behold, I give you charge of My heave offerings of all the holy gifts of the sons of Israel. To you I give them for a share of the anointing, and to your sons, as an eonian statute. ⁹ This shall become yours from the holy of holies, reserved from the fire of all their approach present, all their approach present and all their sin offering and all their guilt offering which they are restoring to Me; it will be a holy of holies for you and for your sons. ¹⁰ As a holy of holies shall you eat it; every male shall eat of it. It shall be holy for you. ¹¹ This also is yours as a heave offering share of their gifts:all the wave offerings of the sons of Israel. To you I give them and to your sons and to your daughters with you as an eonian statute. Everyone who is clean in your household may eat of it. ¹² All the best of the clarified oil and all the best of the grape juice and the grain; their firstfruit which they shall give to Yahweh, to you I give them. ¹³ The firstfruits of all that is in their land which they shall bring to Yahweh shall be yours. Everyone who is clean in your household may eat it. ¹⁴ Every devoted thing in Israel shall be yours. ¹⁵ Every male opening up the womb of all flesh which they may bring near to Yahweh of human and of beast shall be yours. Only you shall ransom, yea ransom the firstborn of humans, and the firstborn of an unclean beast shall you ransom. ¹⁶ As for his ransom, from a month old up shall you take ransom by your appraisal with five silver shekels by the shekel of the holy place. It is twenty gerahs. ¹⁷ Only the firstborn of kine or the firstborn of sheep or the firstborn of goats you shall not ransom. They are holy. Their blood you shall sprinkle against the altar, and their fat you shall cause to fume as a fire offering for a fragrant odor to Yahweh. ¹⁸ Yet their flesh shall be yours, like the chest of the wave offering, and like the right leg shall it be yours. ¹⁹ All the heave offering shares of the holy gifts which the sons of Israel shall raise up to Yahweh I give to you and to your sons and to your daughters with you as an eonian statute. An eonian covenant of salt shall it be before Yahweh, for you and for your seed with you. ²⁰ Yahweh said to Aaron:In their land you shall not have an allotment, nor shall a portion be yours in their midst. I am your portion and your allotment in the midst of the sons of Israel. ²¹ As for the sons of Levi, behold, I give all the tithe in Israel as an allotment in exchange for their service in which they are serving, the service of the tent of appointment. ²² The sons of Israel shall not come near again to the tent of appointment to bear sin so as to die. ²³ He, the Levite, will serve in the service of the tent of appointment, and they shall bear any depravity of theirs. It shall be an eonian statute throughout your generations so that in the midst of the sons of Israel they shall not be allotted an allotment, ²⁴ for it is the tithe of the sons of Israel which they shall raise up as a heave offering to Yahweh which I give to the Levites as an allotment. Therefore I say concerning them:No allotment in the midst of the sons of Israel shall they be allotted. ²⁵ Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying. ²⁶ As for the Levites, you shall speak and say to them:When you take from the sons of Israel the tithe which I give to you from them as your allotment, then you will raise up from it as a heave offering to Yahweh, a tenth of the tithe. ²⁷ Your heave offering will be reckoned to you like the grain from the threshing site and like the fullness from the wine vat. ²⁸ So shall you also raise up the heave offering of Yahweh from all your tithes which you take from the sons of Israel; and from it you will offer the heave offering of Yahweh to Aaron the priest. ²⁹ From all your gifts you shall raise up the whole heave offering of Yahweh of all its best, its hallowed part, from it. ³⁰ And you will say to them:When you raise up its best from it, then it will be reckoned to the Levites like the yield of the threshing site and like the yield of the wine vat. ³¹ And you may eat it in any place, you and your households, for it is your hire, in exchange for your service in the tent of appointment. ³² You shall not bear sin on account of it when you have raised up its best from it; thus you do not violate the holy things of the sons of Israel, nor shall you die.
