But thus do H6213 to them, that they may live, H2421 and not die, H4191 when they approach H5066 to the most H6944 holy H6944 things: Aaron H175 and his sons H1121 shall go H935 in, and appoint H7760 them every H376 one H376 to his service H5656 and to his burden: H4853
20
But they shall not go H935 in to see H7200 when the holy H6944 things are covered, H1104 lest they die. H4191

29
As for the sons H1121 of Merari, H4847 you shall number H6485 them after their families, H4940 by the house H1004 of their fathers; H1
And this H2063 is the charge H4931 of their burden, H4853 according to all H3605 their service H5656 in the tabernacle H168 of the congregation; H4150 the boards H7175 of the tabernacle, H4908 and the bars H1280 thereof, and the pillars H5982 thereof, and sockets H134 thereof,

H4853
And Moses H4872 and Aaron H175 and the chief H5387 of the congregation H5712 numbered H6485 the sons H1121 of the Kohathites H6956 after their families, H4940 and after the house H1004 of their fathers, H1
Even those that were numbered H6485 of them, throughout their families, H4940 by the house H1004 of their fathers, H1 were two thousand H505 and six H8337 hundred H3967 and thirty. H7970
41
These H428 are they that were numbered H6485 of the families H4940 of the sons H1121 of Gershon, of all H3605 that might do H5647 service H5647 in the tabernacle H168 of the congregation, H4150 whom H834 Moses H4872 and Aaron H175 did number H6485 according H5921 to the commandment H6310 of the LORD. H3068
42
And those that were numbered H6485 of the families H4940 of the sons H1121 of Merari, H4847 throughout their families, H4940 by the house H1004 of their fathers, H1
All H3605 those that were numbered H6485 of the Levites, H3881 whom H834 Moses H4872 and Aaron H175 and the chief H5387 of Israel H3478 numbered, H6485 after their families, H4940 and after the house H1004 of their fathers, H1
And you shall bring H7126 the Levites H3881 before H6440 the tabernacle H168 of the congregation: H4150 and you shall gather H6950 the whole H854H3605 assembly H5712 of the children H1121 of Israel H3478 together:
And the Levites H3881 shall lay H5564 their hands H3027 on the heads H7218 of the bullocks: H6499 and you shall offer H6213 the one H259 for a sin H2403 offering, and the other H259 for a burnt H5930 offering, to the LORD, H3068 to make an atonement H3722 for the Levites. H3881
Thus shall you separate H914 the Levites H3881 from among H8432 the children H1121 of Israel: H3478 and the Levites H3881 shall be mine.
15
And after H310 that shall the Levites H3881 go H935 in to do H5647 the service H5647 of the tabernacle H168 of the congregation: H4150 and you shall cleanse H2891 them, and offer H5130 them for an offering. H8573
16
For they are wholly given H5414 to me from among H8432 the children H1121 of Israel; H3478 instead H8478 of such as open H6363 every H3605 womb, H7358 even instead of the firstborn H1060 of all H3605 the children H1121 of Israel, H3478 have I taken H3947 them to me.
And I have given H5414 the Levites H3881 as a gift to Aaron H175 and to his sons H1121 from among H8432 the children H1121 of Israel, H3478 to do H5647 the service H5656 of the children H1121 of Israel H3478 in the tabernacle H168 of the congregation, H4150 and to make an atonement H3722 for the children H1121 of Israel: H3478 that there be no H3808 plague H5063 among the children H1121 of Israel, H3478 when the children H1121 of Israel H3478 come H5066 near H5066 to the sanctuary. H6944
And the Levites H3881 were purified, H2398 and they washed H3526 their clothes; H899 and Aaron H175 offered H5130 them as an offering H8573 before H6440 the LORD; H3068 and Aaron H175 made an atonement H3722 for them to cleanse H2891 them.
But shall minister H8334 with their brothers H251 in the tabernacle H168 of the congregation, H4150 to keep H8104 the charge, H4931 and shall do H5647 no H3808 service. H5656 Thus H3602 shall you do H6213 to the Levites H3881 touching their charge. H4931
And these H428 are they that were numbered H6485 of the Levites H3881 after their families: H4940 of Gershon, H1647 the family H4940 of the Gershonites: H1649 of Kohath, H6955 the family H4940 of the Kohathites: H6956 of Merari, H4847 the family H4940 of the Merarites. H4848
And Johanan H3110 begat H3205 Azariah, H5838 (he it is that executed the priest's H3547 office in the temple H1004 that Solomon H8010 built H1129 in Jerusalem: H3389 )
The sons H1121 of Merari; H4847 Mahli, H4249 and Mushi. H4187 And these H428 are the families H4940 of the Levites H3881 according to their fathers. H1
And they ministered H8334 before H6440 the dwelling H4908 place of the tabernacle H168 of the congregation H4150 with singing, H7892 until H5704 Solomon H8010 had built H1129 the house H1004 of the LORD H3068 in Jerusalem: H3389 and then they waited H5975 on their office H5656 according to their order. H4941
Their brothers H251 also the Levites H3881 were appointed H5414 to all H3605 manner of service H5656 of the tabernacle H4908 of the house H1004 of God. H430
Now these H428 are their dwelling H4186 places throughout their castles H2918 in their coasts, H1366 of the sons H1121 of Aaron, H175 of the families H4940 of the Kohathites: H6956 for theirs H1992 was the lot. H1486
55
And they gave H5414 them Hebron H2275 in the land H776 of Judah, H3063 and the suburbs H4054 thereof round H5439 about it.

66
And the residue of the families H4940 of the sons H1121 of Kohath H6955 had H1961 cities H5892 of their coasts H1366 out of the tribe H4294 of Ephraim. H669
