And the LORDH3068 spakeH1696 unto MosesH4872, sayingH559,
SpeakH1696 unto AaronH175, and sayH559 unto him, When thou lightestH5927 the lampsH5216, the sevenH7651 lampsH5216 shall give lightH215 over againstH6440+H4136 the candlestickH4501.
And AaronH175 didH6213 so; he lightedH5927 the lampsH5216 thereof over againstH4136+H6440 the candlestickH4501, as the LORDH3068 commandedH6680 MosesH4872.
And this workH4639 of the candlestickH4501 was of beatenH4749 goldH2091, unto the shaftH3409 thereof, unto the flowersH6525 thereof, was beaten workH4749: according unto the patternH4758 which the LORDH3068 had shewedH7200 MosesH4872, so he madeH6213 the candlestickH4501.
And the LORDH3068 spakeH1696 unto MosesH4872, sayingH559,
TakeH3947 the LevitesH3881 from amongH8432 the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478, and cleanseH2891 them.
And thus shalt thou doH6213 unto them, to cleanseH2891 them: SprinkleH5137 waterH4325 of purifyingH2403 upon them, and let them shaveH8593+H5674 all their fleshH1320, and let them washH3526 their clothesH899, and so make themselves cleanH2891. {let them shave…: Heb. let them cause a razor to pass over, etc}
Then let them takeH3947 a youngH1121+H1241 bullockH6499 with his meat offeringH4503, even fine flourH5560 mingledH1101 with oilH8081, and anotherH8145 youngH1121+H1241 bullockH6499 shalt thou takeH3947 for a sin offeringH2403.
And thou shalt bringH7126 the LevitesH3881 beforeH6440 the tabernacleH168 of the congregationH4150: and thou shalt gatherH6950 the whole assemblyH5712 of the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 togetherH6950:
And thou shalt bringH7126 the LevitesH3881 beforeH6440 the LORDH3068: and the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 shall putH5564 their handsH3027 upon the LevitesH3881:
And AaronH175 shall offerH5130 the LevitesH3881 beforeH6440 the LORDH3068 for an offeringH8573 of the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478, that they may executeH5647 the serviceH5656 of the LORDH3068. {offer: Heb. wave} {offering: Heb. wave offering} {they…: Heb. they may be to execute, etc}
And the LevitesH3881 shall layH5564 their handsH3027 upon the headsH7218 of the bullocksH6499: and thou shalt offerH6213 the oneH259 for a sin offeringH2403, and the otherH259 for a burnt offeringH5930, unto the LORDH3068, to make an atonementH3722 for the LevitesH3881.
And thou shalt setH5975 the LevitesH3881 beforeH6440 AaronH175, and beforeH6440 his sonsH1121, and offerH5130 them for an offeringH8573 unto the LORDH3068.
Thus shalt thou separateH914 the LevitesH3881 from amongH8432 the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478: and the LevitesH3881 shall be mine.
And afterH310 that shall the LevitesH3881 go inH935 to do the serviceH5647 of the tabernacleH168 of the congregationH4150: and thou shalt cleanseH2891 them, and offerH5130 them for an offeringH8573.
For they are wholly givenH5414 unto me from amongH8432 the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478; instead of such as openH6363 every wombH7358, even instead of the firstbornH1060 of all the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478, have I takenH3947 them unto me.
For all the firstbornH1060 of the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 are mine, both manH120 and beastH929: on the dayH3117 that I smoteH5221 every firstbornH1060 in the landH776 of EgyptH4714 I sanctifiedH6942 them for myself.
And I have takenH3947 the LevitesH3881 for all the firstbornH1060 of the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478.
And I have givenH5414 the LevitesH3881 as a giftH5414 to AaronH175 and to his sonsH1121 from amongH8432 the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478, to doH5647 the serviceH5656 of the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 in the tabernacleH168 of the congregationH4150, and to make an atonementH3722 for the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478: that there be no plagueH5063 among the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478, when the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 come nighH5066 unto the sanctuaryH6944. {a gift: Heb. given}
And MosesH4872, and AaronH175, and all the congregationH5712 of the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478, didH6213 to the LevitesH3881 according unto all that the LORDH3068 commandedH6680 MosesH4872 concerning the LevitesH3881, so didH6213 the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 unto them.
And the LevitesH3881 were purifiedH2398, and they washedH3526 their clothesH899; and AaronH175 offeredH5130 them as an offeringH8573 beforeH6440 the LORDH3068; and AaronH175 made an atonementH3722 for them to cleanseH2891 them.
And afterH310 that wentH935 the LevitesH3881 in to doH5647 their serviceH5656 in the tabernacleH168 of the congregationH4150 beforeH6440 AaronH175, and beforeH6440 his sonsH1121: as the LORDH3068 had commandedH6680 MosesH4872 concerning the LevitesH3881, so didH6213 they unto them.
And the LORDH3068 spakeH1696 unto MosesH4872, sayingH559,
This is it that belongeth unto the LevitesH3881: from twentyH6242 and fiveH2568 yearsH8141 oldH1121 and upwardH4605 they shall go inH935 to waitH6633+H6635 upon the serviceH5656 of the tabernacleH168 of the congregationH4150: {to…: Heb. to war the warfare of, etc}
And from the ageH1121 of fiftyH2572 yearsH8141 they shall ceaseH7725 waitingH6635 upon the serviceH5656 thereof, and shall serveH5647 no more: {cease…: Heb. return from the warfare of the service}
But shall ministerH8334 with their brethrenH251 in the tabernacleH168 of the congregationH4150, to keepH8104 the chargeH4931, and shall doH5647 no serviceH5656. Thus shalt thou doH6213 unto the LevitesH3881 touching their chargeH4931.

And thou shalt giveH5414 the LevitesH3881 unto AaronH175 and to his sonsH1121: they are wholly givenH5414 unto him out of the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478.
But the LevitesH3881 shall pitchH2583 round aboutH5439 the tabernacleH4908 of testimonyH5715, that there be no wrathH7110 upon the congregationH5712 of the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478: and the LevitesH3881 shall keepH8104 the chargeH4931 of the tabernacleH4908 of testimonyH5715.

And they shall keepH8104 thy chargeH4931, and the chargeH4931 of all the tabernacleH168: only they shall not come nighH7126 the vesselsH3627 of the sanctuaryH6944 and the altarH4196, that neither they, nor ye also, dieH4191.

And that they should keepH8104 the chargeH4931 of the tabernacleH168 of the congregationH4150, and the chargeH4931 of the holyH6944 place, and the chargeH4931 of the sonsH1121 of AaronH175 their brethrenH251, in the serviceH5656 of the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068.

Because they ministeredH8334 unto them beforeH6440 their idolsH1544, and caused the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478 to fallH4383 into iniquityH5771; therefore have I lifted upH5375 mine handH3027 against them, saithH5002 the LordH136 GODH3069, and they shall bearH5375 their iniquityH5771. {caused…: Heb. were for a stumblingblock of iniquity unto, etc}

And he smoteH5221 the menH376 of BethshemeshH1053, because they had lookedH7200 into the arkH727 of the LORDH3068, even he smoteH5221 of the peopleH5971 fiftyH2572 thousandH505 and threescore and tenH7657 menH582: and the peopleH5971 lamentedH56, because the LORDH3068 had smittenH5221 many of the peopleH5971 with a greatH1419 slaughterH4347.
But when he was strongH2393, his heartH3820 was lifted upH1361 to his destructionH7843: for he transgressedH4603 against the LORDH3068 his GodH430, and wentH935 into the templeH1964 of the LORDH3068 to burn incenseH6999 upon the altarH4196 of incenseH7004.
And AzariahH5838 the priestH3548 went inH935 afterH310 him, and with him fourscoreH8084 priestsH3548 of the LORDH3068, that were valiantH2428 menH1121:
And they withstoodH5975 UzziahH5818 the kingH4428, and saidH559 unto him, It appertaineth not unto thee, UzziahH5818, to burn incenseH6999 unto the LORDH3068, but to the priestsH3548 the sonsH1121 of AaronH175, that are consecratedH6942 to burn incenseH6999: go outH3318 of the sanctuaryH4720; for thou hast trespassedH4603; neither shall it be for thine honourH3519 from the LORDH3068 GodH430.
Then UzziahH5818 was wrothH2196, and had a censerH4730 in his handH3027 to burn incenseH6999: and while he was wrothH2196 with the priestsH3548, the leprosyH6883 even rose upH2224 in his foreheadH4696 beforeH6440 the priestsH3548 in the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068, from beside the incenseH7004 altarH4196.
And AzariahH5838 the chiefH7218 priestH3548, and all the priestsH3548, lookedH6437 upon him, and, behold, he was leprousH6879 in his foreheadH4696, and they thrust him outH926 from thence; yea, himself hastedH1765 also to go outH3318, because the LORDH3068 had smittenH5060 him.
