| 1. | Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying, | And the Lord said to Moses, | And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, | ||
| 2. | "Speak to Aaron, and tell him, 'When you light the lamps, the seven lamps shall give light in front of the lampstand.'" | Say to Aaron, When you put the lights in their places, the seven lights will give light in front of the support. | Speak unto Aaron, and say unto him, When thou lightest the lamps, the seven lamps shall give light over against the candlestick. | ||
| 3. | Aaron did so. He lit its lamps to light the area in front of the lampstand, as Yahweh commanded Moses. | And Aaron did so; he put the lights in their places so that they gave light in front of the support, as the Lord gave orders to Moses. | And Aaron did so; he lighted the lamps thereof over against the candlestick, as the LORD commanded Moses. | ||
| 4. | This was the workmanship of the lampstand, beaten work of gold. From its base to its flowers, it was beaten work: according to the pattern which Yahweh had shown Moses, so he made the lampstand. | The support for the lights was of hammered gold work, from its base to its flowers it was of hammered work; from the design which the Lord had given to Moses, he made the support for the lights. | 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 shewed Moses, so he made the candlestick. | ||
| 5. | Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying, | And the Lord said to Moses, | And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, | ||
| 6. | "Take the Levites from among the children of Israel, and cleanse them. | Take the Levites out from among the children of Israel and make them clean. | Take the Levites from among the children of Israel, and cleanse them. | ||
| 7. | You shall do this to them, to cleanse them: sprinkle the water of cleansing on them, let them shave their whole bodies with a razor, and let them wash their clothes, and cleanse themselves. | And this is how you are to make them clean: let the holy water which takes away sin be put on them, and let the hair all over their bodies be cut off with a sharp blade, and let their clothing be washed and their bodies made clean. | 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. | ||
| 8. | Then let them take a young bull, and its meal offering, fine flour mixed with oil; and another young bull you shall take for a sin offering. | Then let them take a young ox and its meal offering, crushed grain mixed with oil, and take another ox for a sin-offering. | 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. | ||
| 9. | You shall present the Levites before the Tent of Meeting. You shall assemble the whole congregation of the children of Israel. | And make the Levites come forward in front of the Tent of meeting, and let all the children of Israel come together: | 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: | ||
| 10. | You shall present the Levites before Yahweh. The children of Israel shall lay their hands on the Levites, | And you are to take the Levites before the Lord: and the children of Israel are to put their hands on them: | And thou shalt bring the Levites before the LORD: and the children of Israel shall put their hands upon the Levites: | ||
| 11. | and Aaron shall offer the Levites before Yahweh for a wave offering, on the behalf of the children of Israel, that it may be theirs to do the service of Yahweh. | And Aaron is to give the Levites to the Lord as a wave offering from the children of Israel, so that they may do the Lord's work. | 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. | ||
| 12. | "The Levites shall lay their hands on the heads of the bulls, and you shall offer the one for a sin offering, and the other for a burnt offering to Yahweh, to make atonement for the Levites. | And the Levites are to put their hands on the heads of the oxen, and one of the oxen is to be offered for a sin-offering and the other for a burned offering to the Lord to take away the sin of the Levites. | 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. | ||
| 13. | You shall set the Levites before Aaron, and before his sons, and offer them as a wave offering to Yahweh. | Then the Levites are to be put before Aaron and his sons, to be offered as a wave offering to the Lord. | And thou shalt set the Levites before Aaron, and before his sons, and offer them for an offering unto the LORD. | ||
| 14. | Thus you shall separate the Levites from among the children of Israel, and the Levites shall be mine. | So you are to make the Levites separate from the children of Israel, and the Levites will be mine. | Thus shalt thou separate the Levites from among the children of Israel: and the Levites shall be mine. | ||
| 15. | "After that, the Levites shall go in to do the service of the Tent of Meeting: and you shall cleanse them, and offer them as a wave offering. | After that, the Levites will go in to do whatever has to be done in the Tent of meeting; you are to make them clean and give them as a wave offering. | 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. | ||
| 16. | For they are wholly given to me from among the children of Israel; instead of all who open the womb, even the firstborn of all the children of Israel, I have taken them to me. | For they have been given to me from among the children of Israel; in place of every mother's first son, the first to come to birth in Israel, I have taken them for myself. | 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. | ||
| 17. | For all the firstborn among the children of Israel are mine, both man and animal. On the day that I struck all the firstborn in the land of Egypt, I sanctified them for myself. | For every mother's first son among the children of Israel is mine, the first male birth of man or beast: on the day when I sent death on all the first sons in the land of Egypt, I made them mine. | 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. | ||
| 18. | I have taken the Levites instead of all the firstborn among the children of Israel. | And in place of the first sons among the children of Israel, I have taken the Levites. | And I have taken the Levites for all the firstborn of the children of Israel. | ||
| 19. | 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 Tent of Meeting, and to make atonement for the children of Israel; that there be no plague among the children of Israel, when the children of Israel come near to the sanctuary." | And I have given them to Aaron and to his sons, from among the children of Israel, to undertake for them all the work of the Tent of meeting, and to take away sin from the children of Israel so that no evil may come on them when they come near the holy place. | 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. | ||
| 20. | Moses, and Aaron, and all the congregation of the children of Israel did so to the Levites. According to all that Yahweh commanded Moses concerning the Levites, so the children of Israel did to them. | All these things Moses and Aaron and the children of Israel did to the Levites; as the Lord gave orders to Moses about the Levites, so the children of Israel did. | 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. | ||
| 21. | The Levites purified themselves from sin, and they washed their clothes; and Aaron offered them for a wave offering before Yahweh; and Aaron made atonement for them to cleanse them. | And the Levites were made clean from sin, and their clothing was washed, and Aaron gave them for a wave offering before the Lord; and Aaron took away their sin and made them clean. | 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. | ||
| 22. | After that, the Levites went in to do their service in the Tent of Meeting before Aaron, and before his sons: as Yahweh had commanded Moses concerning the Levites, so they did to them. | And then the Levites went in to do their work in the Tent of meeting before Aaron and his sons: all the orders which the Lord had given Moses about the Levites were put into effect. | 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. | ||
| 23. | Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying, | And the Lord said to Moses, | And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, | ||
| 24. | "This is that which belongs to the Levites: from twenty-five years old and upward they shall go in to wait on the service in the work of the Tent of Meeting; | This is the rule for the Levites: those of twenty-five years old and over are to go in and do the work of the Tent of meeting; | 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: | ||
| 25. | and from the age of fifty years they shall cease waiting on the work, and shall serve no more, | But after they are fifty years old, they are to give up their work and do no more; | And from the age of fifty years they shall cease waiting upon the service thereof, and shall serve no more: | ||
| 26. | but shall minister with their brothers in the Tent of Meeting, to perform the duty, and shall do no service. You shall do thus to the Levites concerning their duties." | But be with their brothers in the Tent of meeting, taking care of it but doing no work. This is what you are to do in connection with the Levites and their work. | 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. | ||
