Berean Standard Bible
Now
these
are
the generations
of Aaron and Moses in
the day
that
Jehovah
spake
with Moses in
mount Sinai.
This
is
the account
of Aaron and Moses at
the time
the
LORD
spoke
with Moses on
Mount Sinai.
And
these are the names of the sons of Aaron: Nadab the first-born
, and
Abihu, Eleazar, and Ithamar.
These are the names of the sons of Aaron: Nadab the firstborn
, then
Abihu, Eleazar, and Ithamar.
These are
the
names
of
the
sons of
Aaron
, the priests
that
were
anointed, whom
he
consecrated
to minister
in
the
priest's
office
.
These were
Aaron’s
sons, the anointed priests
, who
were
ordained
to serve
as
priests
.
And
Nadab and Abihu died
before
Jehovah
, when they offered strange
fire before Jehovah,
in the wilderness of Sinai ,
and they had no children;
and
Eleazar and Ithamar ministered
in
the
priest's
office
in
the presence
of Aaron
their father.
Nadab and Abihu, however,
died
in
the
presence
of
the
LORD
when they offered unauthorized
fire before the
LORD
in the Wilderness of Sinai .
And since
they had no sons,
only
Eleazar and Ithamar served
as
priests
during
the lifetime
of their father Aaron
.
And
Jehovah
spake
unto
Moses, saying,
Then
the
LORD
said
to
Moses,
Bring the tribe of Levi near,
and set
them before
Aaron the priest ,
that
they
may
minister
unto
him.
“
Bring the tribe of Levi and present
them to
Aaron the priest to
assist
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.
They are
to
perform
duties
for
him
and for
the whole congregation before the Tent of Meeting, attending
to 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.
They shall take
care
of
all the furnishings
of the Tent of Meeting and fulfill
obligations
for
the Israelites
by
attending
to 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
.
Assign
the Levites to
Aaron and his sons ;
they have
been
given exclusively
to
him from
among
the Israelites
.
And
thou
shalt
appoint Aaron and his sons ,
and
they
shall
keep
their
priesthood :
and
the stranger
that
cometh
nigh
shall
be put to death.
So
you
shall
appoint Aaron and his sons to
carry
out
the
duties
of
the
priesthood ;
but
any
outsider
who
approaches
the tabernacle
must
be put to death. ”
And
Jehovah
spake
unto
Moses, saying,
Again
the
LORD
spoke
to
Moses, saying,
And
I,
behold, I have taken the Levites from among the children of Israel instead
of all
the
first-born
that
openeth
the womb among
the
children
of
Israel;
and
the Levites shall
be
mine:
“
Behold, I have taken the Levites from among the children of Israel in
place
of every
firstborn
Israelite
from
the womb .
The Levites belong
to
Me,
for all the first-born
are mine ;
on the day that
I smote
all
the
first-born
in the land of Egypt I hallowed
unto
me
all the first-born
in Israel, both man and beast ;
mine
they shall
be:
I am Jehovah
.
for all the firstborn
are Mine .
On the day I struck
down
every
firstborn
in the land of Egypt ,
I consecrated
to
Myself
all the firstborn
in Israel, both man and beast .
They are
Mine;
I am the
LORD
. ”
And
Jehovah
spake
unto
Moses in the wilderness of Sinai, saying,

the
LORD
spoke
to
Moses in the Wilderness of Sinai, saying,
Number the children
of
Levi

fathers'
houses,
by their families :

a month old and
upward
shalt
thou
number
them
.
“
Number the Levites
by their families and
clans.
You
are
to
count
every male a month old or
more

males

of
Israel
from
a month old and

, and take
the
number
of
their names.
Then
the
LORD
said to
Moses, “
Number every
firstborn
male
of the Israelites
a month old or
more
, and list
their names.
And
thou
shalt
take the Levites for me (
I am Jehovah)
instead
of all the first-born
among
the
children
of Israel ;
and the cattle
of the Levites instead
of all the firstlings
among
the
cattle
of the children
of Israel:
You
are
to
take the Levites for Me —
I am the
LORD—in
place
of all the firstborn
of Israel ,
and the livestock
of the Levites in
place
of all the firstborn
of the livestock
of the
Israelites.”
and
Moses numbered, as Jehovah
commanded him ,
all
the
first-born
among
the
children
of
Israel
.
So
Moses numbered all
the
firstborn
of
the
Israelites
, as the
LORD
had
commanded him.
And
all
the first-born
males
according
to
the
number of names,
from
a month old and
upward
, of
those
that
were
numbered
of
them
, were

and
two
thousand
two
hundred
and

and
thirteen
.
The total
number of the
firstborn
males
a month old or
more
, listed

name
, was

And
Jehovah
spake
unto
Moses, saying,
Again
the
LORD
spoke
to
Moses, saying,
Take the Levites instead
of all the first-born
among
the
children
of Israel, and the cattle
of the Levites instead
of their cattle;
and
the Levites shall
be
mine:
I am Jehovah
.
“
Take the Levites in
place
of all the firstborn
of Israel, and the livestock
of the Levites in
place
of their livestock.
The Levites belong
to
Me;
I am the
LORD
.
And
for
the
redemption
of
the
two
hundred
and
threescore
and
thirteen
of
the
first-born
of
the
children
of
Israel,
that
are
over
and
above
`
the number
of'
the Levites,
To
redeem
the 273
firstborn
Israelites
who
outnumber
the Levites,
thou
shalt
take
five shekels apiece
by
the
poll;
after
the
shekel
of
the sanctuary shalt
thou
take
them
(the
shekel is
twenty gerahs ):
you
are
to
collect
five shekels for
each
one,
according
to
the sanctuary shekel of
twenty gerahs .
and
thou
shalt
give the money ,
wherewith
the
odd
number
of
them
is
redeemed,
unto
Aaron and to
his sons.
Give the money to
Aaron and his sons as
the
redemption
price
for
the
excess
among
the
Israelites
. ”
And
Moses took
the redemption -
money from them
that
were
over
and
above
them
that
were
redeemed by the Levites ;
So
Moses collected
the redemption money from those
in
excess
of
the
number
redeemed by the Levites .
from
the first-born
of
the children
of Israel
took
he
the money
, a
thousand
three
hundred
and
threescore
and
five
`
shekels '
, after
the
shekel
of
the sanctuary :
He
collected
the money
from
the firstborn
of the Israelites:
1
, 365
shekels, according
to
the sanctuary shekel.
and Moses gave the redemption -
money unto
Aaron and to
his sons ,
according
to the word of Jehovah
, as Jehovah
commanded Moses
.
And Moses gave the redemption money to
Aaron and his sons in
obedience
to the word of the
LORD
, just
as the
LORD
had
commanded him
.
