1 YHWH spoke to Moses, saying, Numbers 8:1WEB
2 “Speak to Aaron, and tell him, ‘When you light the lamps, the seven lamps shall give light in front of the lamp stand.’” Numbers 8:2WEB
3 Aaron did so. He lit its lamps to light the area in front of the lamp stand, as YHWH commanded Moses. Numbers 8:3WEB
4 This was the workmanship of the lamp stand, beaten work of gold. From its base to its flowers, it was beaten work. He made the lamp stand according to the pattern which YHWH had shown Moses. Numbers 8:4WEB
5 YHWH spoke to Moses, saying, Numbers 8:5WEB
6 “Take the Levites from among the children of Israel, and cleanse them. Numbers 8:6WEB
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, let them wash their clothes, and cleanse themselves. Numbers 8:7WEB
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. Numbers 8:8WEB
9 You shall present the Levites before the Tent of Meeting. You shall assemble the whole congregation of the children of Israel. Numbers 8:9WEB
10 You shall present the Levites before YHWH. The children of Israel shall lay their hands on the Levites, Numbers 8:10WEB
11 and Aaron shall offer the Levites before YHWH for a wave offering on the behalf of the children of Israel, that it may be theirs to do the service of YHWH. Numbers 8:11WEB
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 YHWH, to make atonement for the Levites. Numbers 8:12WEB
13 You shall set the Levites before Aaron and before his sons, and offer them as a wave offering to YHWH. Numbers 8:13WEB
14 Thus you shall separate the Levites from among the children of Israel, and the Levites shall be mine. Numbers 8:14WEB
15 “After that, the Levites shall go in to do the service of the Tent of Meeting. You shall cleanse them, and offer them as a wave offering. Numbers 8:15WEB
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. Numbers 8:16WEB
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. Numbers 8:17WEB
18 I have taken the Levites instead of all the firstborn among the children of Israel. Numbers 8:18WEB
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, so that there will be no plague among the children of Israel when the children of Israel come near to the sanctuary.” Numbers 8:19WEB
20 Moses, and Aaron, and all the congregation of the children of Israel did so to the Levites. According to all that YHWH commanded Moses concerning the Levites, so the children of Israel did to them. Numbers 8:20WEB
21 The Levites purified themselves from sin, and they washed their clothes; and Aaron offered them for a wave offering before YHWH and Aaron made atonement for them to cleanse them. Numbers 8:21WEB
22 After that, the Levites went in to do their service in the Tent of Meeting before Aaron and before his sons: as YHWH had commanded Moses concerning the Levites, so they did to them. Numbers 8:22WEB
23 YHWH spoke to Moses, saying, Numbers 8:23WEB
24 “This is what is assigned 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; Numbers 8:24WEB
25 and from the age of fifty years they shall retire from doing the work, and shall serve no more, Numbers 8:25WEB
26 but shall assist their brothers in the Tent of Meeting, to perform the duty, and shall perform no service. This is how you shall have the Levites do their duties.” Numbers 8:26WEB
