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 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.
Then they killedH7819 the passoverH6453 on the fourteenthH702+H6240 day of the secondH8145 monthH2320: and the priestsH3548 and the LevitesH3881 were ashamedH3637, and sanctifiedH6942 themselves, and brought inH935 the burnt offeringsH5930 into the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068.
And they stoodH5975 in their placeH5977 after their mannerH4941, according to the lawH8451 of MosesH4872 the manH376 of GodH430: the priestsH3548 sprinkledH2236 the bloodH1818, which they received of the handH3027 of the LevitesH3881. {their place: Heb. their standing}
For there were manyH7227 in the congregationH6951 that were not sanctifiedH6942: therefore the LevitesH3881 had the charge of the killingH7821 of the passoversH6453 for every one that was not cleanH2889, to sanctifyH6942 them unto the LORDH3068.
Then the priestsH3548 the LevitesH3881 aroseH6965 and blessedH1288 the peopleH5971: and their voiceH6963 was heardH8085, and their prayerH8605 cameH935 up to his holyH6944 dwelling placeH4583, even unto heavenH8064. {his holy…: Heb. the habitation of his holiness}
And HezekiahH3169 appointedH5975 the coursesH4256 of the priestsH3548 and the LevitesH3881 after their coursesH4256, every manH376 accordingH6310 to his serviceH5656, the priestsH3548 and LevitesH3881 for burnt offeringsH5930 and for peace offeringsH8002, to ministerH8334, and to give thanksH3034, and to praiseH1984 in the gatesH8179 of the tentsH4264 of the LORDH3068.
And his princesH8269 gaveH7311 willinglyH5071 unto the peopleH5971, to the priestsH3548, and to the LevitesH3881: HilkiahH2518 and ZechariahH2148 and JehielH3171, rulersH5057 of the houseH1004 of GodH430, gaveH5414 unto the priestsH3548 for the passover offeringsH6453 two thousandH505 and sixH8337 hundredH3967 small cattle, and threeH7969 hundredH3967 oxenH1241. {gave willingly: Heb. offered, etc}
ConaniahH3562 also, and ShemaiahH8098 and NethaneelH5417, his brethrenH251, and HashabiahH2811 and JeielH3273 and JozabadH3107, chiefH8269 of the LevitesH3881, gaveH7311 unto the LevitesH3881 for passover offeringsH6453 fiveH2568 thousandH505 small cattle, and fiveH2568 hundredH3967 oxenH1241. {gave: Heb. offered}
So the serviceH5656 was preparedH3559, and the priestsH3548 stoodH5975 in their placeH5977, and the LevitesH3881 in their coursesH4256, according to the king'sH4428 commandmentH4687.
And they killedH7819 the passoverH6453, and the priestsH3548 sprinkledH2236 the blood from their handsH3027, and the LevitesH3881 flayedH6584 them.
And they removedH5493 the burnt offeringsH5930, that they might giveH5414 according to the divisionsH4653 of the familiesH1+H1004 of the peopleH1121+H5971, to offerH7126 unto the LORDH3068, as it is writtenH3789 in the bookH5612 of MosesH4872. And so did they with the oxenH1241.
And they roastedH1310 the passoverH6453 with fireH784 according to the ordinanceH4941: but the other holyH6944 offerings sodH1310 they in potsH5518, and in caldronsH1731, and in pansH6745, and divided them speedilyH7323 among all the peopleH1121+H5971. {divided…: Heb. made them run}
And afterwardH310 they made readyH3559 for themselves, and for the priestsH3548: because the priestsH3548 the sonsH1121 of AaronH175 were busied in offeringH5927 of burnt offeringsH5930 and the fatH2459 until nightH3915; therefore the LevitesH3881 preparedH3559 for themselves, and for the priestsH3548 the sonsH1121 of AaronH175.
And the singersH7891 the sonsH1121 of AsaphH623 were in their placeH4612, according to the commandmentH4687 of DavidH1732, and AsaphH623, and HemanH1968, and JeduthunH3038 the king'sH4428 seerH2374; and the portersH7778 waited at every gateH8179; they might not departH5493 from their serviceH5656; for their brethrenH251 the LevitesH3881 preparedH3559 for them. {place: Heb. station}
