23 Pinhas the son of Eleazar is the third in glory,

in that he was zealous in the fear of the master,

and stood fast when the people turned away,

and he made atonement for Yisrael (Israel).

24 Therefore, a covenant of peace was established for him,

that he should be leader of the sanctuary and of his people,

that he and his offspring should have the dignity of the priesthood forever.

25 Also he made a covenant with David the son of Yishay (Jesse), of the tribe of Yehudah (Judah).

The inheritance of the king is his alone from son to son.

So the inheritance of Aharon (Aaron) is also to his seed.

26 May God give you wisdom in your heart

to judge his people in righteousness,

that their good things may not be abolished,

and that their glory may endure for all their generations.
