NU-8:1 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
NU-8:2 Speak unto Aaron, and say unto him, When thou lightest
the lamps, the
seven lamps shall give light over against the candlestick.
NU-8:3 And Aaron did so; he lighted the lamps thereof over
against the
candlestick, as the LORD commanded Moses.
NU-8:4 And this work of the candlestick [was of] beaten gold,
unto the shaft
thereof, unto the flowers thereof, [was] beaten work: according
unto the
pattern which the LORD had showed Moses, so he made the
candlestick.
NU-8:5 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
NU-8:6 Take the Levites from among the children of Israel, and
cleanse them.
NU-8:7 And thus shalt thou do unto them, to cleanse them:
Sprinkle water of
purifying upon them, and let them shave all their flesh, and let
them wash
their clothes, and [so] make themselves clean.
NU-8:8 Then let them take a young bullock with his meat
offering, [even] fine
flour mingled with oil, and another young bullock shalt thou
take for a sin
offering.
NU-8:9 And thou shalt bring the Levites before the tabernacle
of the
congregation: and thou shalt gather the whole assembly of the
children of
Israel together:
NU-8:10 And thou shalt bring the Levites before the LORD: and
the children of
Israel shall put their hands upon the Levites:
NU-8:11 And Aaron shall offer the Levites before the LORD [for]
an offering
of the children of Israel, that they may execute the service of
the LORD.
NU-8:12 And the Levites shall lay their hands upon the heads of
the bullocks:
and thou shalt offer the one [for] a sin offering, and the other
[for] a burnt
offering, unto the LORD, to make an atonement for the Levites.
NU-8:13 And thou shalt set the Levites before Aaron, and before
his sons, and
offer them [for] an offering unto the LORD.
NU-8:14 Thus shalt thou separate the Levites from among the
children of
Israel: and the Levites shall be mine.
NU-8:15 And after that shall the Levites go in to do the
service of the
tabernacle of the congregation: and thou shalt cleanse them, and
offer them
[for] an offering.
NU-8:16 For they [are] wholly given unto me from among the
children of
Israel; instead of such as open every womb, [even instead of]
the firstborn of
all the children of Israel, have I taken them unto me.
NU-8:17 For all the firstborn of the children of Israel [are]
mine, [both]
man and beast: on the day that I smote every firstborn in the
land of Egypt I
sanctified them for myself.
NU-8:18 And I have taken the Levites for all the firstborn of
the children of
Israel.
NU-8:19 And I have given the Levites [as] a gift to Aaron and
to his sons
from among the children of Israel, to do the service of the
children of Israel
in the tabernacle of the congregation, and to make an atonement
for the
children of Israel: that there be no plague among the children
of Israel, when
the children of Israel come nigh unto the sanctuary.
NU-8:20 And Moses, and Aaron, and all the congregation of the
children of
Israel, did to the Levites according unto all that the LORD
commanded Moses
concerning the Levites, so did the children of Israel unto them.
NU-8:21 And the Levites were purified, and they washed their
clothes; and
Aaron offered them [as] an offering before the LORD; and Aaron
made an
atonement for them to cleanse them.
NU-8:22 And after that went the Levites in to do their service
in the
tabernacle of the congregation before Aaron, and before his sons:
as the LORD
had commanded Moses concerning the Levites, so did they unto
them.
NU-8:23 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
NU-8:24 This [is it] that [belongeth] unto the Levites: from
twenty and five
years old and upward they shall go in to wait upon the service
of the
tabernacle of the congregation:
NU-8:25 And from the age of fifty years they shall cease
waiting upon the
service [thereof], and shall serve no more:
NU-8:26 But shall minister with their brethren in the
tabernacle of the
congregation, to keep the charge, and shall do no service. Thus
shalt thou do
unto the Levites touching their charge.
