NUM 3 ©

3And these are the generations of Aaron and Moses in the day Yahweh spoke with Moses on the mountain of Sinai. 2And these are the names of the sons of Aaron: Nadab the firstborn, and Abihu, Eleazar, and Ithamar. 3These are the names of the sons of Aaron, the priests, the ones who were anointed, whose hand he filled to serve as priest. 4And Nadab died and Abihu before the face of Yahweh when they offered unfamiliar fire before the face of Yahweh in the wilderness of Sinai, and sons were not belonging to them. And Eleazar served as priest and Ithamar with the face of Aaron their father.

5And Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying, 6“Bring near the tribe of Levi and stand it before the face of Aaron the priest. And they shall serve him. 7And they shall keep his keeping and the keeping of all the congregation before the face of the tent of meeting, to serve the service of the dwelling. 8And they shall keep all the vessels of the tent of meeting and the keeping of the sons of Israel, to serve the service of the dwelling. 9And you shall give the Levites to Aaron and to his sons. They are given, given to him from with the sons of Israel. 10And you shall appoint Aaron and his sons, and they shall keep their priesthood. And the stranger who comes near shall be put to death.”

11And Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying, 12“And I, behold, I have taken the Levites from the midst of the sons of Israel instead of every firstborn, the opener of the womb from the sons of Israel, and the Levites are for me, 13for every firstborn belongs to me. In the day of my striking down every firstborn in the land of Egypt, I set apart for me every firstborn in Israel, from human up to livestock. They are for me. I am Yahweh.”

14And Yahweh spoke to Moses in the wilderness of Sinai, saying, 15“Count the sons of Levi according to the house of their fathers, according to their clans. You shall count them, every male from a son of a month and upward.” 16And Moses counted them in accordance with the mouth of Yahweh, just as he was commanded. 17And these were the sons of Levi by their names: Gershon and Kohath and Merari. 18And these are the names of the sons of Gershon according to their clans: Libni and Shimei. 19And the sons of Kohath according to their clans were Amram and Izhar, Hebron and Uzziel. 20And the sons of Merari according to their clans were Mahli and Mushi. These are they, the clans of the Levites according to the house of their fathers.

21Of Gershon were the clan of the Libnite and the clan of the Shimeite. These are they, the clans of the Gershonite. 22Their counted ones by the number of every male from a son of a month and upward, their counted ones were 7,500. 23The clans of the Gershonites were to camp behind the dwelling, to the west. 24And the leader of the house of the father of the Gershonite was Eliasaph the son of Lael. 25And the keeping of the sons of Gershon in the tent of meeting was the dwelling and the tent, its covering and the curtain of the opening of the tent of meeting 26and the hangings of the courtyard and the curtains of the opening of the courtyard that is upon the dwelling and upon the altar all around, and its ropes for all its service.

27And of Kohath were the clan of the Amramite and the clan of the Izharite and the clan of the Hebronite and the clan of the Uzzielite. These are they, the clans of the Kohathite. 28By the number of every male from a son of a month and upward, 8,600 were the keepers of the keeping of the holy place. 29The clans of the sons of Kohath were to camp on the side of the dwelling to the south. 30And the leader of the house of the father of the clans of the Kohathite was Elizaphan the son of Uzziel. 31And their duty was the box and the table and the lampstand and the altar and the vessels of the holy place with which they serve and the covering, and all its service. 32And the leader of the leaders of the Levites was Eleazar the son of Aaron the priest, the oversight of the keepers of the keeping of the holy place.

33Of Merari were the clan of the Mahlite and the clan of the Mushite. These are they, the clans of Merari. 34And their counted ones by the number of every male from a son of a month and upward were 6,200, 35and the leader of the house of the father of the clans of Merari was Zuriel the son of Abihail. They were to camp on the side of the dwelling to the north. 36And the oversight of the duty of the sons of Merari was the boards of the dwelling and its bars and its pillars and its bases and all its vessels, and all its service, 37and the pillars of the courtyard all around and their bases and their pegs and their ropes.

38And the ones camping before the face of the dwelling to the east, before the face of the tent of meeting toward the sunrise, were to be Moses and Aaron and his sons, the keepers of the keeping of the holy place, according to the keeping of the sons of Israel. And the stranger who comes near shall be put to death. 39All the counted ones of the Levites whom Moses and Aaron counted in accordance with the mouth of Yahweh, according to their clans, every male from a son of a month and upward, were 22,000.

40And Yahweh said to Moses, “Count every firstborn male of the sons of Israel from a son of a month and upward. And lift up the number of their names. 41And you shall take the Levites for me—I am Yahweh—instead of all the firstborn of the sons of Israel, and the livestock of the Levites instead of all the firstborn among the livestock of the sons of Israel.” 42And Moses counted all the firstborn of the sons of Israel, just as Yahweh had commanded him. 43And it happened that every firstborn male by the number of the names from a son of a month and upward, according to their counted ones, was 22,273.

44And Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying, 45“Take the Levites instead of all the firstborn among the sons of Israel, and the livestock of the Levites instead of their livestock (and the Levites shall belong to me—I am Yahweh), 46and the ransoms of the 273, the ones in excess over the Levites from the firstborn of the sons of Israel. 47And you shall take five, five shekels for the skull. You shall take by the shekel of the holy place (20 gerahs is the shekel). 48And you shall give the silver to Aaron and to his sons, the ransom of the ones in excess among them.” 49And Moses took the silver of the ransom from with the ones in excess over the ransomed ones of the Levites. 50From with the firstborn of the sons of Israel he took the silver: 1,365 by the shekel of the holy place. 51And Moses gave the silver of the ransom to Aaron and to his sons in accordance with the mouth of Yahweh, just as Yahweh had commanded Moses.
