Teks -- Numbers 8:8-26 (NET)

Konteks
8:8 Then they are to take a young bull with its grain offering of fine flour mixed with olive oil ; and you are to take a second young bull for a purification offering. 8:9 You are to bring the Levites before the tent of meeting and assemble the entire community of the Israelites . 8:10 Then you are to bring the Levites before the Lord , and the Israelites are to lay their hands on the Levites ; 8:11 and Aaron is to offer the Levites before the Lord as a wave offering from the Israelites , that they may do the work of the Lord . 8:12 When the Levites lay their hands on the heads of the bulls , offer the one for a purification offering and the other for a whole burnt offering to the Lord , to make atonement for the Levites . 8:13 You are to have the Levites stand before Aaron and his sons , and then offer them as a wave offering to the Lord . 8:14 And so you are to separate the Levites from among the Israelites , and the Levites will be mine. 8:15 “After this, the Levites will go in to do the work of the tent of meeting . So you must cleanse them and offer them like a wave offering . 8:16 For they are entirely given to me from among the Israelites . I have taken them for myself instead of all who open the womb , the firstborn sons of all the Israelites . 8:17 For all the firstborn males among the Israelites are mine, both humans and animals ; when I destroyed all the firstborn in the land of Egypt I set them apart for myself. 8:18 So I have taken the Levites instead of all the firstborn sons among the Israelites . 8:19 I have given the Levites as a gift to Aaron and his sons from among the Israelites , to do the work for the Israelites in the tent of meeting , and to make atonement for the Israelites , so there will be no plague among the Israelites when the Israelites come near the sanctuary .” 8:20 So Moses and Aaron and the entire community of the Israelites did this with the Levites . According to all that the Lord commanded Moses concerning the Levites , this is what the Israelites did with them. 8:21 The Levites purified themselves and washed their clothing ; then Aaron presented them like a wave offering before the Lord , and Aaron made atonement for them to purify them. 8:22 After this , the Levites went in to do their work in the tent of meeting before Aaron and before his sons . As the Lord had commanded Moses concerning the Levites , so they did .
The Work of the Levites
8:23 Then the Lord spoke to Moses : 8:24 “This is what pertains to the Levites : At the age of twenty-five years and upward one may begin to join the company in the work of the tent of meeting , 8:25 and at the age of fifty years they must retire from performing the work and may no longer work . 8:26 They may assist their colleagues in the tent of meeting , to attend to needs , but they must do no work . This is the way you must establish the Levites regarding their duties .”
