¹⁴ Then spake Yahweh unto Moses, in the desert of Sinai, saying:–– ¹⁵ Number thou the sons of Levi, by their ancestral houses, by their families,––every male, from one month old and upwards, shalt thou number them. ¹⁶ So then Moses numbered them, according to the bidding of Yahweh,––as he was commanded. ¹⁷ And these were the sons of Levi, by their names,––Gershon, and Kohath, and Merari. ¹⁸ And, these, the names of the sons of Gershon, by their families,––Libni and Shimei. ¹⁹ And, the sons of Kohath, by their families, Amram, and Izhar, Hebron and Uzziel. ²⁰ And, the sons of Merari, by their families, Mahli and Mushi.

⁴⁰ And Yahweh said unto Moses: Number thou every firstborn male belonging to the sons of Israel, from one month old and upwards,––and reckon up the number of their names; ⁴¹ then shalt thou take the Levites for me, me Yahweh, instead of every firstborn among the sons of Israel,––also the cattle of the Levites, instead of every firstling among the cattle of the sons of Israel. ⁴² So then Moses numbered, as Yahweh commanded him,––every firstborn among the sons of Israel. ⁴³ And it was so––that all the firstborn of the males, in the counting of names from one month old and upwards, of such as were numbered of them,––were two–and–twenty thousand, two hundred and seventy–three. 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:

²¹ Then spake Yahweh unto Moses, saying: ²² Reckon up the sum of the sons of Gershon, even of them also,––by their ancestral house, by their families; ²³ from thirty years old and upwards, even to fifty years, shalt thou number them,––all that may enter to take rank in the host, to do laborious work in the tent of meeting. ²⁴ This, shall be the labour of the families of the Gershonites,––in labouring and in bearing:–– ²⁵ they shall bear the curtains of the habitation, and the tent of meeting, the covering thereof, and the covering of badgers’ skin which is over above it,––and the screen, at the entrance of the tent of meeting; ²⁶ and the hangings of the court, and the screen for the entrance of the gate of the court which is near the habitation, and near the altar, round about, and their cords, and all their articles of service, and all that is to be done to them, when they shall do their labour. ²⁷ At the bidding of Aaron and his sons, shall be all the labour of the sons of the Gershonites, to the extent of their every burden, and to the extent of all their labour,––so shall ye appoint unto them in charge, their every burden. ²⁸ This, shall be the labour of the families of the sons of the Gershonites, in the tent of meeting,––and, the charge of them, shall be in the hand of Ithamar, son of Aaron, the priest. ²⁹ As for the sons of Merari,––by their families, by their ancestral house, shall ye number them; ³⁰ from thirty years old and upwards, even to fifty years, shall ye number them,––all that enter into the host, to do laborious work in the tent of meeting. ³¹ And, this, shall be their charge of the burdens, to the extent of all their labour in the tent of meeting,––the boards of the habitation, and the bars thereof, and he pillars thereof and the sockets thereof: ³² and the pillars of the court round about, and their sockets and their pins and their cords, to the extent of all their articles, to the extent of all their labour,––and, by names, shall ye put under their care the articles of their charge of burdens. ³³ This, shall be the labour of the families of the sons of Merari, to the extent of all their labour in the tent of meeting,––in the hand of Ithamar, son of Aaron, the priest.

¹ And Yahweh spake unto Moses, saying: ² Speak unto Aaron, and thou shalt say unto him,––When thou lightest up the lamps, over against the front of the lampstand, shall the seven lamps give light. ³ And Aaron did so, over against the front of the lampstand, lighted he up the lamps thereof,––As Yahweh commanded Moses, ⁴ Now, this, was the work of the lampstand––beaten work of gold, both in the shaft thereof and in the flowers thereof, was it, beaten work, according to the appearance which Yahweh caused to appear unto Moses, so, made he the lampstand.
⁵ And Yahweh spake unto Moses, saying: ⁶ Take the Levites, out of the midst of the sons of Israel,––and thou shalt purify them. ⁷ And, thus, shalt thou do unto them, to purify them, sprinkle upon them sin–cleansing water,––then shall they cause a razor to pass over all their flesh, and shall wash their clothes, and so make themselves pure. ⁸ Then shall they take a choice young bullock, with the meal–offering thereof, even fine meal overflowed with oil,––and, a second choice young bullock, shalt thou take, as a sin–bearer. ⁹ Then shalt thou bring the Levites near, before the tent of meeting,––and shalt call together all the assembly of the sons of Israel; ¹⁰ and shalt bring the Levites near before Yahweh,––and the sons of Israel shall lean their hands upon the Levites; ¹¹ and Aaron shall offer the Levites, as a wave–offering before Yahweh, from among the sons of Israel,––so shall they be for performing the laborious work of Yahweh. ¹² And, the Levites, shall lean their hands upon the head of the bullocks; then make thou of the one a sin–bearer, and of the other an ascending–sacrifice unto Yahweh, to put a propitiatory–covering over the Levites. ¹³ Thus shalt thou cause the Levites to stand before Aaron, and before his sons,––thus shalt thou offer them as a wave–offering unto Yahweh; ¹⁴ thus shalt thou separate the Levites out of the midst of the sons of Israel,––thus shall the Levites become mine. ¹⁵ And, after that, shall the Levites enter to do the labour of the tent of meeting,––so shalt thou purify them, and offer them as a wave–offering. ¹⁶ For, given, given, they are, unto me, out of the midst of the sons of Israel,––instead of every firstborn that a mother beareth from among the sons of Israel, have I taken them, unto me. ¹⁷ For, mine, is every firstborn, among the sons of Israel, among men, and among beasts,––on the day when I smote every firstborn in the land of Egypt, did I hallow them, unto me. ¹⁸ Therefore have I taken the Levites,––instead of every firstborn among the sons of Israel; ¹⁹ therefore have I given the Levites, as a gift unto Aaron and unto his sons, out of the midst of the sons of Israel, to do the laborious work of the sons of Israel, in the tent of meeting, and to put a propitiatory–covering over the sons of Israel,––so shall there be, among the sons of Israel, no plague, by the coming nigh of the sons of Israel unto the sanctuary. ²⁰ And Moses and Aaron and all the assembly of the sons of Israel did thus unto the Levites,––according to all that Yahweh commanded Moses as touching the Levites, so, did the sons of Israel unto them. ²¹ And the Levites accepted the cleansing from sin, and washed their clothes, and Aaron offered them as a wave–offering before Yahweh,––and Aaron put a propitiatory–covering over them, to make them pure. ²² And, after that, went the Levites in, to do their laborious work in the tent of meeting, before Aaron, and before his sons,––as Yahweh commanded Moses concerning the Levites, so, did they unto them. ²³ And Yahweh spake unto Moses, saying; ²⁴ This, is what concerneth the Levites,––from twenty–five years old and upwards, shall they enter to take rank in the host, for doing the laborious work of the tent of meeting; ²⁵ but, from the age of fifty years, shall they retire from taking rank in the labour, and shall do laborious work no more; ²⁶ yet shall they wait upon their brethren in the tent of meeting, by keeping charge, but, laborious work, shall they not perform,––thus, shalt thou do unto the Levites, as touching their charges.
