I have given the Levites as gifts to Aaron and his sons. I have taken them from among all the Israelites. I have appointed them to do the work at the tent of meeting.

但利未人要在法柜帐幕的四周安营，免得神的忿怒临到以色列的会众；利未人要负看守法柜的帐幕的责任。”

摩西对亚伦说：“你要拿着香炉，把坛上的火盛在里头，又加上香，快快带到会众那里去，为他们赎罪，因为有震怒从耶和华面前出来，瘟疫已经开始了。”

他们的职任是协助亚伦的子孙，办理耶和华殿的事务，管理院子、厢房和洁净一切圣物，以及办理神殿的事务；又管理陈设饼、素祭细面，或无酵薄饼，或是煎盘烤的，或是用油调和的，以及管理各种量度的器具。每天早晨要侍立称谢和赞美耶和华，每天晚上也要这样；又要在安息日，每月初一日和指定的节日，按着数目照着规例，把燔祭不住地献在耶和华面前。他们要看守会幕和圣所，以及看管他们在耶和华殿里办事的亲族，亚伦的子孙。

“你要叫利未支派近前来，使他们站在亚伦祭司面前，可以服事他。他们要替亚伦和全体会众，在会幕前尽上本分，办理帐幕的事。他们又要看守管理会幕里的一切器具，也要替以色列人尽上本分，办理帐幕的事。你要把利未人派给亚伦和他的儿子，因为他们是从以色列人中选出来完全给他的。

耶和华因为伯．示麦人偷窥他的约柜，就击杀他们；他击杀了七十人（“七十人”大多数文本都作“五万零七十人”，少数文本作“七十人”）。众人因为耶和华用大灾击杀他们，就哀哭起来。

乌西雅强盛起来，就心高气傲，以致自寻毁灭，竟冒犯耶和华他的神；他进了耶和华的殿，要在香坛上烧香。跟随乌西雅进去的，有亚撒利雅祭司，还有耶和华的祭司八十个，都是英勇的人。他们阻止乌西雅王，对他说：“乌西雅啊，给耶和华烧香不是你应作的事，而是亚伦的子孙作祭司的事，他们是分别为圣作烧香的事；请离开圣所吧，因为你作了不应该作的事了，你必不能从耶和华神那里得着尊荣。”于是乌西雅十分忿怒，手里拿着香炉正要烧香，他向众祭司发怒的时候，就在耶和华的殿里香坛旁边众祭司的面前，他的额上忽然长出了大痲风。大祭司亚撒利雅和众祭司看着他，忽然见他的额上长了大痲风，就急忙催他出殿；他自己也急忙出去，因为耶和华击打了他。

他们要在我的圣所作仆役，看管殿门，在圣殿中供职；他们要为人民宰杀燔祭牲和其他祭牲，又要站在人民面前侍候他们。因为这些利未人曾在他们的偶像前侍候这人民，成了陷以色列家在罪孽中的绊脚石。因此，我向他们举手起誓，他们必要担当自己的罪孽。这是主耶和华的宣告。他们不可亲近我，作我的祭司，也不可亲近我的一切圣物，或至圣之物。他们必要担当自己的羞辱和他们所行可憎之事的报应。然而我要委派他们看守圣殿，办理圣殿的一切事务，作一切当作的工。

你要带着你的亲族利未支派的人，就是你祖宗支派的人，与你一同前来，使他们与你联合，并且服事你；只是你和你的儿子要与你一同在约柜的会幕前供职。他们要守你所吩咐的，和会幕里的一切事，只是不可走近圣所的器具和祭坛，免得他们和你们都死亡。他们要与你联合，也要守会幕的本分，办理会幕的一切事务；只是外人不可走近你们。你们要看守圣所和祭坛，免得震怒再临到以色列人。我已经把你们的亲族利未人，从以色列人中拣选出来，给你们作礼物献与耶和华，为要办理会幕的事。
