1	These also are the generations of Aaron and Moyses, in ye day that the Lorde spake with Moyses in mount Sinai.	These are the generations of Aaron and Moses at the time when the LORD spoke with Moses on Mount Sinai.	This is the account of the family of Aaron and Moses at the time the LORD spoke to Moses at Mount Sinai.
2	And these are the names of the sonnes of Aaron: Nadab the eldest sonne, and Abihu, Eleazar, and Ithamar.	These are the names of the sons of Aaron: Nadab the firstborn, and Abihu, Eleazar, and Ithamar.	The names of the sons of Aaron were Nadab the firstborn and Abihu, Eleazar and Ithamar.

Those were the names of Aaron’s sons, the anointed priests, who were ordained to serve as priests.
4	And Nadab and Abihu dyed before the Lorde, when they offred straunge fire befor the Lorde in the wyldernesse of Sinai, and had no chyldren: And Eleazar and Ithamar ministred in the sight of Aaron their father.	But Nadab and Abihu died before the LORD when they offered unauthorized fire before the LORD in the wilderness of Sinai, and they had no children. So Eleazar and Ithamar served as priests in the lifetime of Aaron their father.	Nadab and Abihu, however, died before the LORD when they made an offering with unauthorized fire before him in the Desert of Sinai. They had no sons, so Eleazar and Ithamar served as priests during the lifetime of their father Aaron.
5	And the Lorde spake vnto Moyses, saying:	And the LORD spoke to Moses, saying,	The LORD said to Moses,
6	Bryng the tribe of Leui, and set them before Aaron the priest, that they may serue hym:	“Bring the tribe of Levi near, and set them before Aaron the priest, that they may minister to him.	“Bring the tribe of Levi and present them to Aaron the priest to assist him.
7	And take the charge with hym, euen the charge of the whole congregation before the tabernacle of the congregation, to do the seruice of the tabernacle.	They shall keep guard over him and over the whole congregation before the tent of meeting, as they minister at the tabernacle.

8	They shall kepe all the instrumentes of the tabernacle of the congregation, & haue the charge of the chyldren of Israel, to do the seruice of the tabernacle.	They shall guard all the furnishings of the tent of meeting, and keep guard over the people of Israel as they minister at the tabernacle.	They are to take care of all the furnishings of the tent of meeting, fulfilling the obligations of the Israelites by doing the work of the tabernacle.
9	And thou shalt geue the Leuites vnto Aaron and to his sonnes: for they are geuen and deliuered vnto hym of the chyldren of Israel.	And you shall give the Levites to Aaron and his sons; they are wholly given to him from among the people of Israel.	Give the Levites to Aaron and his sons; they are the Israelites who are to be given wholly to him.
10	And thou shalt appoynt Aaron and his sonnes to wayte on their priestes office: and the straunger that commeth nye, shalbe slayne.

But if any outsider comes near, he shall be put to death.”	Appoint Aaron and his sons to serve as priests; anyone else who approaches the sanctuary is to be put to death.”

The Levites shall be mine,	“I have taken the Levites from among the Israelites in place of the first male offspring of every Israelite woman. The Levites are mine,
13	Because all the first borne are myne: for the same day that I smote all the first borne in the lande of Egypt, I halowed vnto me all the first borne in Israel, both man and beast, and mine they shalbe: I am the Lorde.	for all the firstborn are mine. On the day that I struck down all the firstborn in the land of Egypt, I consecrated for my own all the firstborn in Israel, both of man and of beast. They shall be mine: I am the LORD.”	for all the firstborn are mine. When I struck down all the firstborn in Egypt, I set apart for myself every firstborn in Israel, whether human or animal.
