My sons, be not now negligent; for Jehovah hath chosen you to stand before him, to minister unto him, and that ye should be his ministers, and burn incense.

My sons, do not be negligent now, for the Lord has chosen you to stand before him and serve him, to minister before him and to burn incense.”

My sons, don’t fail to obey the Lord. He has chosen you to stand in front of him and work for him. He wants you to serve him and burn incense to him.”

My sons, do not neglect your duties any longer! The Lord has chosen you to stand in his presence, to minister to him, and to lead the people in worship and present offerings to him.”

Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap.For he that soweth unto his own flesh shall of the flesh reap corruption; but he that soweth unto the Spirit shall of the Spirit reap eternal life.

At that time Jehovah set apart the tribe of Levi, to bear the ark of the covenant of Jehovah, to stand before Jehovah to minister unto him, and to bless in his name, unto this day.

Bring the tribe of Levi near, and set them before Aaron the priest, that they may minister unto him.And they shall keep his charge, and the charge of the whole congregation before the tent of meeting, to do the service of the tabernacle.And they shall keep all the furniture of the tent of meeting, and the charge of the children of Israel, to do the service of the tabernacle.And thou shalt give the Levites unto Aaron and to his sons: they are wholly given unto him on the behalf of the children of Israel.

And thy brethren also, the tribe of Levi, the tribe of thy father, bring thou near with thee, that they may be joined unto thee, and minister unto thee: but thou and thy sons with thee shall be before the tent of the testimony.And they shall keep thy charge, and the charge of all the Tent: only they shall not come nigh unto the vessels of the sanctuary and unto the altar, that they die not, neither they, nor ye.And they shall be joined unto thee, and keep the charge of the tent of meeting, for all the service of the Tent: and a stranger shall not come nigh unto you.And ye shall keep the charge of the sanctuary, and the charge of the altar; that there be wrath no more upon the children of Israel.And I, behold, I have taken your brethren the Levites from among the children of Israel: to you they are a gift, given unto Jehovah, to do the service of the tent of meeting.And thou and thy sons with thee shall keep your priesthood for everything of the altar, and for that within the veil; and ye shall serve: I give you the priesthood as a service of gift: and the stranger that cometh nigh shall be put to death.

And fire came forth from Jehovah, and devoured the two hundred and fifty men that offered the incense.And Jehovah spake unto Moses, saying,Speak unto Eleazar the son of Aaron the priest, that he take up the censers out of the burning, and scatter thou the fire yonder; for they are holy,even the censers of these sinners against their own lives; and let them be made beaten plates for a covering of the altar: for they offered them before Jehovah; therefore they are holy; and they shall be a sign unto the children of Israel.And Eleazar the priest took the brazen censers, which they that were burnt had offered; and they beat them out for a covering of the altar,to be a memorial unto the children of Israel, to the end that no stranger, that is not of the seed of Aaron, come near to burn incense before Jehovah; that he be not as Korah, and as his company: as Jehovah spake unto him by Moses.

Take the Levites from among the children of Israel, and cleanse them.And thus shalt thou do unto them, to cleanse them: sprinkle the water of expiation upon them, and let them cause a razor to pass over all their flesh, and let them wash their clothes, and cleanse themselves.Then let them take a young bullock, and its meal- offering, fine flour mingled with oil; and another young bullock shalt thou take for a sin- offering.And thou shalt present the Levites before the tent of meeting: and thou shalt assemble the whole congregation of the children of Israel:and thou shalt present the Levites before Jehovah. And the children of Israel shall lay their hands upon the Levites:and Aaron shall offer the Levites before Jehovah for a wave- offering, on the behalf of the children of Israel, that it may be theirs to do the service of Jehovah.And the Levites shall lay their hands upon the heads of the bullocks: and offer thou the one for a sin- offering, and the other for a burnt- offering, unto Jehovah, to make atonement for the Levites.And thou shalt set the Levites before Aaron, and before his sons, and offer them for a wave- offering unto Jehovah.Thus shalt thou separate the Levites from among the children of Israel; and the Levites shall be mine.
