4. And this[H2088] work[H4639] of the candlestick[H4501] was of beaten[H4749] gold,[H2091] unto[H5704] the shaft[H3409] thereof, unto[H5704] the flowers[H6525] thereof, was beaten work:[H4749] according unto the pattern[H4758] which[H834] the LORD[H3068] had showed[H7200] [H853] Moses,[H4872] so[H3651] he made[H6213] [H853] the candlestick.[H4501]

5. And the LORD[H3068] spoke[H1696] unto[H413] Moses,[H4872] saying,[H559]

6. Take[H3947] [H853] the Levites[H3881] from among[H4480] [H8432] the children[H1121] of Israel,[H3478] and cleanse[H2891] them.

7. And thus[H3541] shalt thou do[H6213] unto them, to cleanse[H2891] them: Sprinkle[H5137] water[H4325] of purifying[H2403] upon[H5921] them, and let them shave[H5674] [H8593] [H5921] all[H3605] their flesh,[H1320] and let them wash[H3526] their clothes,[H899] and so make themselves clean.[H2891]

8. Then let them take[H3947] a young[H1121] [H1241] bullock[H6499] with his meat offering,[H4503] even fine flour[H5560] mingled[H1101] with oil,[H8081] and another[H8145] young[H1121] [H1241] bullock[H6499] shalt thou take[H3947] for a sin offering.[H2403]

9. And thou shalt bring[H7126] [H853] the Levites[H3881] before[H6440] the tabernacle[H168] of the congregation:[H4150] and thou shalt gather[H6950] [H853] the whole[H3605] assembly[H5712] of the children[H1121] of Israel[H3478] together:

10. And thou shalt bring[H7126] [H853] the Levites[H3881] before[H6440] the LORD:[H3068] and the children[H1121] of Israel[H3478] shall put[H5564] [H853] their hands[H3027] upon[H5921] the Levites: [H3881]

11. And Aaron[H175] shall offer[H5130] [H853] the Levites[H3881] before[H6440] the LORD[H3068] for an offering[H8573] of[H4480] [H854] the children[H1121] of Israel,[H3478] that they may execute[H1961] [H5647] [H853] the service[H5656] of the LORD.[H3068]

12. And the Levites[H3881] shall lay[H5564] [H853] their hands[H3027] upon[H5921] the heads[H7218] of the bullocks:[H6499] and thou shalt offer[H6213] [H853] the one[H259] for a sin offering,[H2403] and the other[H259] for a burnt offering,[H5930] unto the LORD,[H3068] to make an atonement[H3722] for[H5921] the Levites.[H3881]

13. And thou shalt set[H5975] [H853] the Levites[H3881] before[H6440] Aaron,[H175] and before[H6440] his sons,[H1121] and offer[H5130] them for an offering[H8573] unto the LORD.[H3068]

14. Thus shalt thou separate[H914] [H853] the Levites[H3881] from among[H4480] [H8432] the children[H1121] of Israel:[H3478] and the Levites[H3881] shall be[H1961] mine.

15. And after[H310] that[H3651] shall the Levites[H3881] go in[H935] to do the service[H5647] [H853] of the tabernacle[H168] of the congregation:[H4150] and thou shalt cleanse[H2891] them, and offer[H5130] them for an offering.[H8573]

16. For[H3588] they[H1992] are wholly given[H5414] [H5414] unto me from among[H4480] [H8432] the children[H1121] of Israel;[H3478] instead of[H8478] such as open[H6363] every[H3605] womb,[H7358] even instead of the firstborn[H1060] of all[H3605] the children[H4480] [H1121] of Israel,[H3478] have I taken[H3947] them unto me.

17. For[H3588] all[H3605] the firstborn[H1060] of the children[H1121] of Israel[H3478] are mine, both man[H120] and beast:[H929] on the day[H3117] that I smote[H5221] every[H3605] firstborn[H1060] in the land[H776] of Egypt[H4714] I sanctified[H6942] them for myself.

18. And I have taken[H3947] [H853] the Levites[H3881] for[H8478] all[H3605] the firstborn[H1060] of the children[H1121] of Israel.[H3478]

19. And I have given[H5414] [H853] the Levites[H3881] as a gift[H5414] to Aaron[H175] and to his sons[H1121] from among[H4480] [H8432] the children[H1121] of Israel,[H3478] to do[H5647] [H853] the service[H5656] of the children[H1121] of Israel[H3478] in the tabernacle[H168] of the congregation,[H4150] and to make an atonement[H3722] for[H5921] the children[H1121] of Israel:[H3478] that there be[H1961] no[H3808] plague[H5063] among the children[H1121] of Israel,[H3478] when the children[H1121] of Israel[H3478] come nigh[H5066] unto[H413] the sanctuary.[H6944]

20. And Moses,[H4872] and Aaron,[H175] and all[H3605] the congregation[H5712] of the children[H1121] of Israel,[H3478] did[H6213] to the Levites[H3881] according unto all[H3605] that[H834] the LORD[H3068] commanded[H6680] [H853] Moses[H4872] concerning the Levites,[H3881] so[H3651] did[H6213] the children[H1121] of Israel[H3478] unto them.

21. And the Levites[H3881] were purified,[H2398] and they washed[H3526] their clothes;[H899] and Aaron[H175] offered[H5130] them as an offering[H8573] before[H6440] the LORD;[H3068] and Aaron[H175] made an atonement[H3722] for[H5921] them to cleanse[H2891] them.

22. And after[H310] that[H3651] went the Levites in[H935] [H3881] to do[H5647] [H853] their service[H5656] in the tabernacle[H168] of the congregation[H4150] before[H6440] Aaron,[H175] and before[H6440] his sons:[H1121] as[H834] the LORD[H3068] had commanded[H6680] [H853] Moses[H4872] concerning[H5921] the Levites,[H3881] so[H3651] did[H6213] they unto them.

23. And the LORD[H3068] spoke[H1696] unto[H413] Moses,[H4872] saying,[H559]

24. This[H2063] is it that[H834] belongeth unto the Levites:[H3881] from twenty[H6242] and five[H2568] years[H8141] old[H4480] [H1121] and upward[H4605] they shall go in[H935] to wait upon[H6633] [H6635] the service[H5656] of the tabernacle[H168] of the congregation: [H4150]

25. And from the age[H4480] [H1121] of fifty[H2572] years[H8141] they shall cease waiting upon[H7725] [H4480] [H6635] the service[H5656] thereof, and shall serve[H5647] no[H3808] more: [H5750]

26. But shall minister[H8334] with[H854] their brethren[H251] in the tabernacle[H168] of the congregation,[H4150] to keep[H8104] the charge,[H4931] and shall do[H5647] no[H3808] service.[H5656] Thus[H3602] shalt thou do[H6213] unto the Levites[H3881] touching their charge.[H4931]
