1
The Sons of Aaron
When the Lord talked with Moses on Mount Sinai,
These also are the generations of Aaron and Moses in the day that the Lord spake with Moses in mount Sinai.
2 Aaron's four sons, Nadab, Abihu, Eleazar, and Ithamar, And these are the names of the sons of Aaron; Nadab the firstborn, and Abihu, Eleazar, and Ithamar.
3 were the ones to be ordained as priests. These are the names of the sons of Aaron, the priests which were anointed, whom he consecrated to minister in the priest’s office.
4 But the Lord killed Nadab and Abihu in the Sinai Desert when they used fire that was unacceptable in their offering to the Lord. And because Nadab and Abihu had no sons, only Eleazar and Ithamar served as priests with their father Aaron. And Nadab and Abihu died before the Lord, when they offered strange fire before the Lord, in the wilderness of Sinai, and they had no children: and Eleazar and Ithamar ministered in the priest’s office in the sight of Aaron their father.
5
The Duties of the Levites
The Lord said to Moses:
And the Lord spake unto Moses, saying,
6 Assign the Levi tribe to Aaron the priest. They will be his assistants Bring the tribe of Levi near, and present them before Aaron the priest, that they may minister unto him.
7 and will work at the sacred tent for him and for all the Israelites. And they shall keep his charge, and the charge of the whole congregation before the tabernacle of the congregation, to do the service of the tabernacle.
8 The Levites will serve the community by being responsible for the furnishings of the tent. And they shall keep all the instruments of the tabernacle of the congregation, and the charge of the children of Israel, to do the service of the tabernacle.
9 They are assigned to help Aaron and his sons, And thou shalt give the Levites unto Aaron and to his sons: they are wholly given unto him out of the children of Israel.
10 who have been appointed to be priests. Anyone else who tries to perform the duties of a priest must be put to death. And thou shalt appoint Aaron and his sons, and they shall wait on their priest’s office: and the stranger that cometh nigh shall be put to death.
11 — And the Lord spake unto Moses, saying,
12 — And I, behold, I have taken the Levites from among the children of Israel instead of all the firstborn that openeth the matrix among the children of Israel: therefore the Levites shall be mine;
13 Moses, I have chosen these Levites from all Israel, and they will belong to me in a special way. When I killed the first-born sons of the Egyptians, I decided that the first-born sons in every Israelite family and the first-born males of their flocks and herds would be mine. But now I accept these Levites in place of the first-born sons of the Israelites. Because all the firstborn are mine; for on the day that I smote all the firstborn in the land of Egypt I hallowed unto me all the firstborn in Israel, both man and beast: mine shall they be: I am the Lord.
14
The Levites Are Counted
In the Sinai Desert the Lord said to Moses,
And the Lord spake unto Moses in the wilderness of Sinai, saying,
15 “Now I want you to count the men and boys in the Levi tribe by families and by clans. Include every one at least a month old.” Number the children of Levi after the house of their fathers, by their families: every male from a month old and upward shalt thou number them.
16 So Moses obeyed and counted them. And Moses numbered them according to the word of the Lord, as he was commanded.
17 Levi's three sons, Gershon, Kohath, and Merari, had become the heads of their own clans. And these were the sons of Levi by their names; Gershon, and Kohath, and Merari.
18 Gershon's sons were Libni and Shimei. And these are the names of the sons of Gershon by their families; Libni, and Shimei.
19 Kohath's sons were Amram, Izhar, Hebron, and Uzziel. And the sons of Kohath by their families; Amram, and Izehar, Hebron, and Uzziel.
20 And Merari's sons were Mahli and Mushi. These were the sons and grandsons of Levi, and they had become the leaders of the Levite clans. And the sons of Merari by their families; Mahli, and Mushi. These are the families of the Levites according to the house of their fathers.
21 The two Gershon clans were the Libnites and Shimeites, Of Gershon was the family of the Libnites, and the family of the Shimites: these are the families of the Gershonites.
22 and they had 7,500 men and boys at least one month old. Those that were numbered of them, according to the number of all the males, from a month old and upward, even those that were numbered of them were seven thousand and five hundred.
23 — The families of the Gershonites shall pitch behind the tabernacle westward.
24 The Gershonites, under the leadership of Eliasaph son of Lael, were to camp on the west side of the sacred tent. And the chief of the house of the father of the Gershonites shall be Eliasaph the son of Lael.
25 Their duties at the tent included taking care of the tent itself, along with its outer covering, the curtain for the entrance, And the charge of the sons of Gershon in the tabernacle of the congregation shall be the tabernacle, and the tent, the covering thereof, and the hanging for the door of the tabernacle of the congregation,
26 the curtains hanging inside the courtyard around the tent, as well as the curtain and ropes for the entrance to the courtyard and its altar. The Gershonites were responsible for setting these things up and taking them down. And the hangings of the court, and the curtain for the door of the court, which is by the tabernacle, and by the altar round about, and the cords of it for all the service thereof.
27 The four Kohath clans were the Amramites, Izharites, Hebronites, and the Uzzielites, And of Kohath was the family of the Amramites, and the family of the Izeharites, and the family of the Hebronites, and the family of the Uzzielites: these are the families of the Kohathites.
28 and they had 8,600 men and boys at least one month old. In the number of all the males, from a month old and upward, were eight thousand and six hundred, keeping the charge of the sanctuary.
29 — The families of the sons of Kohath shall pitch on the side of the tabernacle southward.
30 The Kohathites, under the leadership of Elizaphan son of Uzziel, were to camp on the south side of the sacred tent. And the chief of the house of the father of the families of the Kohathites shall be Elizaphan the son of Uzziel.
31 Their duties at the tent included taking care of the sacred chest, the table for the sacred bread, the lampstand, the altars, the objects used for worship, and the curtain in front of the most holy place. The Kohathites were responsible for setting these things up and taking them down. And their charge shall be the ark, and the table, and the candlestick, and the altars, and the vessels of the sanctuary wherewith they minister, and the hanging, and all the service thereof.
32 Eleazar son of Aaron was the head of the Levite leaders, and he made sure that the work at the sacred tent was done. And Eleazar the son of Aaron the priest shall be chief over the chief of the Levites, and have the oversight of them that keep the charge of the sanctuary.
33 The two Merari clans were the Mahlites and the Mushites, Of Merari was the family of the Mahlites, and the family of the Mushites: these are the families of Merari.
34 and they had 6,200 men and boys at least one month old. And those that were numbered of them, according to the number of all the males, from a month old and upward, were six thousand and two hundred.
35 The Merarites, under the leadership of Zuriel son of Abihail, were to camp on the north side of the sacred tent. And the chief of the house of the father of the families of Merari was Zuriel the son of Abihail: these shall pitch on the side of the tabernacle northward.
36 — And under the custody and charge of the sons of Merari shall be the boards of the tabernacle, and the bars thereof, and the pillars thereof, and the sockets thereof, and all the vessels thereof, and all that serveth thereto,
37 Their duties included taking care of the tent frames and the pieces that held the tent up: the bars, the posts, the stands, and its other equipment. They were also in charge of the posts that supported the courtyard, as well as their stands, tent pegs, and ropes. The Merari clans were responsible for setting these things up and taking them down. And the pillars of the court round about, and their sockets, and their pins, and their cords.
38 Moses, Aaron, and his sons were to camp in front of the sacred tent, on the east side, and to make sure that the Israelites worshiped in the proper way. Anyone else who tried to do the work of Moses and Aaron was to be put to death. But those that encamp before the tabernacle toward the east, even before the tabernacle of the congregation eastward, shall be Moses, and Aaron and his sons, keeping the charge of the sanctuary for the charge of the children of Israel; and the stranger that cometh nigh shall be put to death.
39 So Moses and Aaron obeyed the Lord and counted the Levites by their clans. The total number of Levites at least one month old was 22,000. All that were numbered of the Levites, which Moses and Aaron numbered at the commandment of the Lord, throughout their families, all the males from a month old and upward, were twenty and two thousand.
40
The Levites Are Accepted as Substitutes for the First-Born Sons
The Lord said to Moses, “Make a list and count the first-born sons at least one month old in each of the Israelite families.
And the Lord said unto Moses, Number all the firstborn of the males of the children of Israel from a month old and upward, and take the number of their names.
41 They belong to me, but I will accept the Levites as substitutes for them, and I will accept the Levites' livestock as substitutes for the Israelites' first-born livestock.” And thou shalt take the Levites for me (I am the Lord) instead of all the firstborn among the children of Israel; and the cattle of the Levites instead of all the firstlings among the cattle of the children of Israel.
42 Moses obeyed the Lord and counted the first-born sons; And Moses numbered, as the Lord commanded him, all the firstborn among the children of Israel.
43 there were 22,273 of them. And all the firstborn males by the number of names, from a month old and upward, of those that were numbered of them, were twenty and two thousand two hundred and threescore and thirteen.
44 Then the Lord said, And the Lord spake unto Moses, saying,
45 “The Levites will belong to me and will take the place of the first-born sons; their livestock will take the place of the Israelites' first-born livestock. Take the Levites instead of all the firstborn among the children of Israel, and the cattle of the Levites instead of their cattle; and the Levites shall be mine: I am the Lord.
46 But since there are more first-born sons than Levites, the extra 273 men and boys must be bought back from me. And for those that are to be redeemed of the two hundred and threescore and thirteen of the firstborn of the children of Israel, which are more than the Levites;
47 For each one, you are to collect five pieces of silver, weighed according to the official standards. Thou shalt even take five shekels apiece by the poll, after the shekel of the sanctuary shalt thou take them: (the shekel is twenty gerahs:)
48 This money must then be given to Aaron and his sons.” And thou shalt give the money, wherewith the odd number of them is to be redeemed, unto Aaron and to his sons.
49 Moses collected the silver from the extra 273 first-born men and boys, And Moses took the redemption money of them that were over and above them that were redeemed by the Levites:
50 and it amounted to 1,365 pieces of silver, weighed according to the official standards. Of the firstborn of the children of Israel took he the money; a thousand three hundred and threescore and five shekels, after the shekel of the sanctuary:
51 Then he gave it to Aaron and his sons, just as the Lord had commanded. And Moses gave the money of them that were redeemed unto Aaron and to his sons, according to the word of the Lord, as the Lord commanded Moses.
