YLT
Young's Literal Translation
Then
the
LORD
said
to
Moses,
And
Jehovah
speaketh
unto
Moses, saying,
“
Speak to
Aaron and tell
him :
‘When
you
set
up
the
seven
lamps
, they
are
to light
the area
in
front
of the lampstand
. ’”
`
Speak unto
Aaron ,
and thou
hast
said
unto
him, In
thy
causing
the
lights
to go
up,
over-against
the face
of the candlestick
do
the
seven
lights
give
light
. '
And Aaron did
so; he
set
up
the
lamps
facing
toward
the front
of the lampstand
, just
as the
LORD
had
commanded Moses.
And Aaron doth
so; over-against
the face
of the candlestick
he
hath
caused
its
lights
to
go
up
, as Jehovah
hath
commanded Moses.
This is how
the lampstand
was
constructed
: it
was
made
of hammered
gold from
its
base
to
its blossoms
, fashioned
according
to
the
pattern
the LORD
had
shown
Moses.
And
this `
is '
the work
of
the
candlestick
: beaten
work
of gold ;
unto
its thigh
, unto
its
flower
it
`is'
beaten
work;
as
the appearance
which
Jehovah
shewed
Moses ,
so
he
hath
made
the
candlestick
.
Again
the
LORD
spoke
to
Moses, saying,
And
Jehovah
speaketh
unto
Moses, saying,
“
Take the Levites from among
the Israelites
and make
them ceremonially
clean
.
`
Take the Levites from the midst
of
the
sons
of
Israel,
and thou
hast
cleansed
them.
This
is
what
you
must
do
to cleanse them: Sprinkle them with
the
water
of purification.
Have them
shave
their whole
bodies
and wash
their clothes
, and so
purify
themselves .
`And
thus
thou
dost
to them
to
cleanse them: sprinkle upon
them waters
of atonement,
and
they
have caused
a
razor
to
pass
over
all
their flesh,
and have
washed
their garments
, and cleansed
themselves ,
Then
have them
take
a young
bull
with
its
grain
offering
of fine
flour mixed with oil, and you
are
to
take
a second young
bull
for a sin offering .
and
have taken
a bullock,
a
son
of the
herd,
and
its
present,
flour mixed with oil, --
and a second bullock
a
son
of
the
herd
thou
dost
take
for a sin -
offering ,
Bring
the Levites before the Tent of Meeting and assemble
the whole congregation
of Israel .
and
thou
hast
brought
near
the Levites before the tent of meeting ,
and thou
hast
assembled
the whole company
of the
sons
of
Israel ,
You
are
to
present
the Levites before the
LORD
and have
the Israelites
lay
their hands upon
them.
and
thou
hast
brought
near
the Levites before Jehovah,
and the sons
of
Israel
have
laid
their hands on
the
Levites,
Aaron is
to
present
the Levites before
the
LORD
as
a wave offering from the sons of Israel, so
that
they may
perform
the service of the
LORD
.
and
Aaron hath
waved
the Levites --
a wave -
offering before
Jehovah,
from the sons of Israel, and
they have
been
--
for
doing
the service of Jehovah
.
And the Levites are
to
lay their hands on the heads
of the bulls
, and offer
to
the LORD
one as
a sin offering and the other
as
a burnt offering, to make
atonement
for the Levites .
`
And the Levites lay their hands on the head
of the bullocks
, and make
thou
the one a sin -
offering ,
and the one
a burnt -
offering to
Jehovah
, to atone
for the Levites ,
You
are
to
have
the Levites stand before Aaron and his sons and then
present
them before
the
LORD
as
a wave offering .
and
thou
hast
caused
the Levites to
stand before Aaron ,
and before
his sons ,
and hast
waved
them --
a wave -
offering to
Jehovah;
In
this
way
you
shall
separate
the Levites from the rest
of the Israelites
, and the Levites will
belong
to
Me.
and
thou
hast
separated
the Levites from the midst
of the sons
of
Israel
, and the Levites have
become
Mine;
After
you
have
cleansed
them
and presented
them
as
a
wave
offering,
they
may
come to serve at
the Tent of Meeting.
and afterwards
do
the
Levites
come in
to serve the tent of meeting ,
and
thou
hast
cleansed
them,
and
hast
waved
them
--
a
wave-offering
.
For the
Levites
have
been
wholly
given to Me from
among
the sons of Israel .
I
have
taken
them
for
Myself
in
place
of all
who come
first
from
the
womb ,
the firstborn
of all the sons of Israel .
`
For they
are
certainly
given to Me out
of
the midst
of
the
sons of Israel ,
instead
of him
who openeth
any
womb --
the first-born
of all --
from
the sons of Israel I
have
taken
them
to
Myself;
For every firstborn
male
in
Israel is
Mine
, both
man and beast .
I
set
them
apart
for
Myself
on
the day I
struck
down
all
the
firstborn
in the land of Egypt .
for Mine
`is'
every first-born
among
the
sons
of
Israel, among
man and among
beast ;
in
the day of
my
smiting
every
first-born
in the land of Egypt I
sanctified
them
for
Myself;
But
I have
taken
the Levites in
place
of all
the
firstborn
among the sons of Israel .
and
I take
the Levites instead
of every
first-born
among the sons of Israel :
And I have
given
the Levites as
a
gift
to Aaron and his sons from among
the Israelites
, to perform
the service for
the Israelites
at
the Tent of Meeting and to make atonement on
their
behalf
, so
that
no plague will
come
against
the Israelites
when
they
approach
the sanctuary. ”
`
And I give
the Levites gifts
to Aaron and to
his sons ,
from the midst
of
the
sons
of
Israel
, to do
the service of
the sons
of
Israel
in
the tent of meeting ,
and to make atonement for
the
sons
of
Israel
, and
there
is
no plague among
the sons
of
Israel
in
the sons
of
Israel's
drawing
nigh
unto
the
sanctuary. '
So
Moses ,
Aaron, and the whole
congregation
of Israel did
with
the Levites everything
that the
LORD
had
commanded Moses they
should
do
.
And
Moses doth
--
Aaron also
, and all
the company
of the
sons
of
Israel --
to
the Levites according
to
all
that Jehovah
hath
commanded Moses concerning
the
Levites;
so
have
the
sons
of
Israel
done
to
them
.
The Levites purified
themselves and washed
their clothes
, and Aaron presented
them as
a wave offering before the
LORD.
Aaron also
made
atonement for them to cleanse them .
And
the Levites cleanse
themselves ,
and wash
their garments
, and Aaron waveth
them a wave -
offering before Jehovah,
and
Aaron maketh
atonement for them to cleanse them ,
After
that,
the Levites came
to perform
their service at
the Tent of Meeting in
the
presence
of
Aaron and his sons .
Thus
they
did
with
the
Levites
just
as the
LORD
had
commanded Moses.
and
afterwards
have
the Levites gone
in
to do
their service in
the tent of meeting ,
before
Aaron and before
his sons ;
as Jehovah
hath
commanded Moses concerning
the
Levites,
so
they
have
done
to
them
.
And the
LORD
said
to
Moses,
And Jehovah
speaketh
unto
Moses, saying,
“
This applies
to
the Levites: Men
twenty-
five years of
age
or
older
shall
enter
to perform
the service
in the work
at
the Tent of Meeting .
`
This `is'
that
which
`is'
the Levites '
: from
a
son
of
five and
twenty
years and
upward
he
doth
go
in
to serve
the host
in the service
of
the tent of meeting ,
But
at
the
age
of fifty ,
they
must
retire
from performing
the work
and no
longer
serve .
and
from
a
son
of fifty years
he
doth
return
from the host
of
the
service,
and doth
not
serve any
more,
After
that,
they
may
assist
their
brothers
in fulfilling
their
duties
at
the Tent of Meeting, but
they
themselves
are
not
to do
the work.
This
is
how
you
are
to
assign
responsibilities
to the Levites. ”
and
he
hath
ministered
with
his
brethren
in the tent of meeting, to keep
the charge,
and
doth
not
do
service;
thus
thou
dost
to the Levites concerning
their
charge
. '
