And no G3756 man G5100 takes G2983 this G3588 honor G5092 to himself, G1438 but he that is called G2564 of God, G2316 as was Aaron. G2

And take H7126 you to you Aaron H175 your brother, H251 and his sons H1121 with him, from among H8432 the children H1121 of Israel, H3478 that he may minister to me in the priest's H3547 office, even Aaron, H175 Nadab H5070 and Abihu, H30 Eleazar H499 and Ithamar, H385 Aaron's H175 sons. H1121

And he has brought H7126 you near H7138 to him, and all H3605 your brothers H251 the sons H1121 of Levi H3878 with you: and seek H1245 you the priesthood H3550 also? H1571

For which cause H3651 both you and all H3605 your company H5712 are gathered H3259 together against H5921 the LORD: H3068 and what H4100 is Aaron, H175 that you murmur H3885 against H5921 him?

And you shall write H3789 Aaron's H175 name H8034 on the rod H4294 of Levi: H3878 for one H259 rod H4294 shall be for the head H7218 of the house H1004 of their fathers. H1

And it shall come H1961 to pass, that the man's H376 rod, H4294 whom H834 I shall choose, H977 shall blossom: H6524 and I will make to cease H7918 from me the murmurings H8519 of the children H1121 of Israel, H3478 whereby H834 they murmur H3885 against H5921 you.

And Moses H4872 laid H3240 up the rods H4294 before H6440 the LORD H3068 in the tabernacle H168 of witness. H5715

And Moses H4872 brought H3318 out all H3605 the rods H4294 from before H6440 the LORD H3068 to all H3605 the children H1121 of Israel: H3478 and they looked, H7200 and took H3947 every man H376 his rod. H4294

Therefore you and your sons H1121 with you shall keep H8104 your priest's H3550 office for everything H3605 H1697 of the altar, H4196 and within H1004 the veil; H6532 and you shall serve: H5647 I have given H5414 your priest's H3550 office to you as a service H5656 of gift: H4979 and the stranger H376 H2114 that comes H7131 near H7126 shall be put to death. H4191

And, behold, H2009 I have given H5414 the children H1121 of Levi H3878 all H3605 the tenth H4643 in Israel H3478 for an inheritance, H5159 for their service H5656 which H834 they serve, H5647 even the service H5656 of the tabernacle H168 of the congregation. H4150

But the Levites H3881 shall do H5647 the service H5656 of the tabernacle H168 of the congregation, H4150 and they shall bear H5375 their iniquity: H5771 it shall be a statute H2708 for ever H5769 throughout your generations, H1755 that among H8432 the children H1121 of Israel H3478 they have no H3808 inheritance. H5159

And the LORD H3068 spoke H1696 to Moses, H4872 saying, H559

And all H3605 the tithe H4643 of the land, H776 whether of the seed H2233 of the land, H776 or of the fruit H6529 of the tree, H6086 is the LORD's: H3068 it is holy H6944 to the LORD. H3068

And concerning the tithe H4643 of the herd, H1241 or of the flock, H6629 even of whatever H3605 passes H5674 under H8478 the rod, H7626 the tenth H6224 shall be holy H6944 to the LORD. H3068

Thus speak H1696 to the Levites, H3881 and say H559 to them, When H3588 you take H3947 of the children H1121 of Israel H3478 the tithes H4643 which H834 I have given H5414 you from them for your inheritance, H5159 then you shall offer H7311 up an heave H8641 offering H8641 of it for the LORD, H3068 even a tenth H4643 part H2506 of the tithe. H4643

Thus H3651 you also H1571 shall offer H7311 an heave H8641 offering H8641 to the LORD H3068 of all H3605 your tithes, H4643 which H834 you receive H3947 of the children H1121 of Israel; H3478 and you shall give H5414 thereof the LORD's H3068 heave H8641 offering H8641 to Aaron H175 the priest. H3548

Therefore you shall say H559 to them, When you have heaved H7311 the best H2459 thereof from it, then it shall be counted H2803 to the Levites H3881 as the increase H8393 of the threshing floor, H1637 and as the increase H8393 of the wine press. H3342

And you shall bear H5375 no H3808 sin H2399 by reason H5921 of it, when you have heaved H7311 from it the best H2459 of it: neither H3808 shall you pollute H2490 the holy H6944 things of the children H1121 of Israel, H3478 lest H3808 you die. H4191

Moreover he commanded H559 the people H5971 that dwelled H3427 in Jerusalem H3389 to give H5414 the portion H4521 of the priests H3548 and the Levites, H3881 that they might be encouraged H2388 in the law H8451 of the LORD. H3068

And concerning the children H1121 of Israel H3478 and Judah, H3063 that dwelled H3427 in the cities H5892 of Judah, H3063 they also H1571 brought H935 in the tithe H4643 of oxen H1241 and sheep, H6629 and the tithe H4643 of holy H6944 things which were consecrated H6942 to the LORD H3068 their God, H430 and laid H5414 them by heaps. H6194

And I perceived H3045 that the portions H4521 of the Levites H3881 had not been given H5414 them: for the Levites H3881 and the singers, H7891 that did H6213 the work, H4399 were fled H1272 every H376 one H376 to his field. H7704

For he was yet G2089 in the loins G3751 of his father, G3962 when G3753 Melchisedec G3198 met G4876 him.

And God H430 said H559 to him, I am God H410 Almighty: H7706 be fruitful H6509 and multiply; H7235 a nation H1471 and a company H6951 of nations H1471 shall be of you, and kings H4428 shall come H3318 out of your loins; H2504

All H3605 the souls H5315 that came H935 with Jacob H3290 into Egypt, H4714 which came H3318 out of his loins, H3409 besides H905 Jacob's H3290 sons' H1121 wives, H802 all H3605 the souls H5315 were three score H8346 and six; H8337

And all H3605 the souls H5315 that came H3318 out of the loins H3409 of Jacob H3290 were seventy H7657 souls: H5315 for Joseph H3130 was in Egypt H4714 already.

Nevertheless H7535 you shall not build H1129 the house; H1004 but your son H1121 that shall come H3318 forth H3318 out of your loins, H2504 he shall build H1129 the house H1004 to my name. H8034
