1 And the Lorde spake vnto Moses saynge: Now the LORD spoke to Moses, saying, The LORD said to Moses,
2 speake vnto Aaron and saye vnto hym: when thou puttest on the lampes se that they lighte all seuen apon the forefront of the candelsticke. “Speak to Aaron and say to him, When you set up the lamps, the seven lamps shall give light in front of the lampstand.” “Speak to Aaron and say to him, ‘When you set up the lamps, see that all seven light up the area in front of the lampstand.’”
3 And Aaron dyd euen so and put the lampes apon the forefrot of the candelsticke as the Lorde commaunded Moses And Aaron did so: he set up its lamps in front of the lampstand, as the LORD commanded Moses. Aaron did so; he set up the lamps so that they faced forward on the lampstand, just as the LORD commanded Moses.
4 and the worke of the candelsticke was of stiffe golde: both the shaft and the floures thereof. And accordinge vnto the visyon whiche the Lorde had shewed Moses euen so he made the candelsticke. And this was the workmanship of the lampstand, hammered work of gold. From its base to its flowers, it was hammered work; according to the pattern that the LORD had shown Moses, so he made the lampstand. This is how the lampstand was made: It was made of hammered gold—from its base to its blossoms. The lampstand was made exactly like the pattern the LORD had shown Moses.
5 And the Lorde spake vnto Moses sayenge: And the LORD spoke to Moses, saying, The LORD said to Moses:
6 take the leuites from amonge the childern of Israel and clense them. “Take the Levites from among the people of Israel and cleanse them. “Take the Levites from among all the Israelites and make them ceremonially clean.
7 And this doo vnto them when thou clensest them sprinckle water of purifyenge apon them and make a rasure to runne alonge apon all the fleshe of them and let them washe their clothes and then they shall be cleane. Thus you shall do to them to cleanse them: sprinkle the water of purification upon them, and let them go with a razor over all their body, and wash their clothes and cleanse themselves. To purify them, do this: Sprinkle the water of cleansing on them; then have them shave their whole bodies and wash their clothes. And so they will purify themselves.
8 And let them take a bollocke and his meatofferynge fyne floure myngled with oyle: and another bollocke shalt thou take to be a synneofferynge. Then let them take a bull from the herd and its grain offering of fine flour mixed with oil, and you shall take another bull from the herd for a sin offering. Have them take a young bull with its grain offering of the finest flour mixed with olive oil; then you are to take a second young bull for a sin offering.
9 Than brynge the leuites before the tabernacle of witnesse and gather the hole multitude of the chyldern of Israel together. And you shall bring the Levites before the tent of meeting and assemble the whole congregation of the people of Israel. Bring the Levites to the front of the tent of meeting and assemble the whole Israelite community.
10 And bringe the leuites before the Lorde and let the childern of Israel put their handes apon the leuites. When you bring the Levites before the LORD, the people of Israel shall lay their hands on the Levites, You are to bring the Levites before the LORD, and the Israelites are to lay their hands on them.
11 And let Aaron heue the leuites before the LORDE for an heueofferynge geuen of the childern of Israel ad the let them be appoynted to wayte apon the seruyce of the Lorde. and Aaron shall offer the Levites before the LORD as a wave offering from the people of Israel, that they may do the service of the LORD. Aaron is to present the Levites before the LORD as a wave offering from the Israelites, so that they may be ready to do the work of the LORD.
12 And let the leuites put their handes vpo the heedes of the bollockes and then offer them: the one for a synneofferynge and the other for a burntofferynge vnto the Lorde to make an attonement for the leuites. Then the Levites shall lay their hands on the heads of the bulls, and you shall offer the one for a sin offering and the other for a burnt offering to the LORD to make atonement for the Levites. “Then the Levites are to lay their hands on the heads of the bulls, using one for a sin offering to the LORD and the other for a burnt offering, to make atonement for the Levites.
13 And make the leuites stonde before Aaron and hys sonnes and heue them to be a heueofferynge vnto the Lorde. And you shall set the Levites before Aaron and his sons, and shall offer them as a wave offering to the LORD. Have the Levites stand in front of Aaron and his sons and then present them as a wave offering to the LORD.
14 And thou shalt separate the leuites from amonge the childern of Israel that they be myne: “Thus you shall separate the Levites from among the people of Israel, and the Levites shall be mine. In this way you are to set the Levites apart from the other Israelites, and the Levites will be mine.
15 and after that let them goo and do the seruice of the tabernacle of witnesse. Clense them and waue them And after that the Levites shall go in to serve at the tent of meeting, when you have cleansed them and offered them as a wave offering. “After you have purified the Levites and presented them as a wave offering, they are to come to do their work at the tent of meeting.
16 for they are geuen vnto me from amonge the childre of Israel: for I haue taken them vnto me for all ye firstborne that ope any matrice amoge the childern of Israel. For they are wholly given to me from among the people of Israel. Instead of all who open the womb, the firstborn of all the people of Israel, I have taken them for myself. They are the Israelites who are to be given wholly to me. I have taken them as my own in place of the firstborn, the first male offspring from every Israelite woman.
17 For all the fyrstborne among the childern of Israel are myne both man and beest: because the same tyme that I smote the fyrstborne in the lande of Egipte I sanctyfyde them for my selfe: For all the firstborn among the people of Israel are mine, both of man and of beast. On the day that I struck down all the firstborn in the land of Egypt I consecrated them for myself, Every firstborn male in Israel, whether human or animal, is mine. When I struck down all the firstborn in Egypt, I set them apart for myself.
18 and I haue taken the Leuites for all the fyrstborne amonge the childern of Israel and I have taken the Levites instead of all the firstborn among the people of Israel. And I have taken the Levites in place of all the firstborn sons in Israel.
19 and haue geuen them vnto Aaron and his sonnes from amonge the childern of Israel to doo the seruyce of the childern of Israel in the tabernacle of witnesse and to make an attonement for the chyldern of Israell that there be no plage a monge the childern of Ysraell yf they come nye vnto the sanctuary. And I have given the Levites as a gift to Aaron and his sons from among the people of Israel, to do the service for the people of Israel at the tent of meeting and to make atonement for the people of Israel, that there may be no plague among the people of Israel when the people of Israel come near the sanctuary.” From among all the Israelites, I have given the Levites as gifts to Aaron and his sons to do the work at the tent of meeting on behalf of the Israelites and to make atonement for them so that no plague will strike the Israelites when they go near the sanctuary.”
20 And Moses and Aaron and all the congregacion of the childern of Israel dyd vnto the leuites acordynge vnto all that ye Lorde commaunded Moses. Thus did Moses and Aaron and all the congregation of the people of Israel to the Levites. According to all that the LORD commanded Moses concerning the Levites, the people of Israel did to them. Moses, Aaron and the whole Israelite community did with the Levites just as the LORD commanded Moses.
21 And the leuites purifyed them selues a nd wasshed their clothes. And Aaron waued them before ye Lorde and made an attonement for them to clense them. And the Levites purified themselves from sin and washed their clothes, and Aaron offered them as a wave offering before the LORD, and Aaron made atonement for them to cleanse them. The Levites purified themselves and washed their clothes. Then Aaron presented them as a wave offering before the LORD and made atonement for them to purify them.
22 And after that they went into doo their seruyce in the tabernacle of wytnesse before Aaron and his sonnes. And acordinge as the Lorde had commaunded Moses as concernynge the leuites euen so they dyd vnto them. And after that the Levites went in to do their service in the tent of meeting before Aaron and his sons; as the LORD had commanded Moses concerning the Levites, so they did to them. After that, the Levites came to do their work at the tent of meeting under the supervision of Aaron and his sons. They did with the Levites just as the LORD commanded Moses.
23 And the Lorde spake vnto Moses sayenge: And the LORD spoke to Moses, saying, The LORD said to Moses,
24 this shalbe the maner of the leuites: from xxv. yere vppwarde they shall goo in to wayte vppon the seruyce in the tabernacle of witnesse “This applies to the Levites: from twenty-five years old and upward they shall come to do duty in the service of the tent of meeting. “This applies to the Levites: Men twenty-five years old or more shall come to take part in the work at the tent of meeting,
25 and at fyftye they shall ceasse waytynge apon the seruyce thereof and shall laboure no moare: And from the age of fifty years they shall withdraw from the duty of the service and serve no more. but at the age of fifty, they must retire from their regular service and work no longer.
26 but shall ministre vnto their bretheren in the tabernacle of witnesse and there wayte but shall doo no moare seruyce. And se that thou doo after this maner vnto the leuites in their waytynge tymes. They minister to their brothers in the tent of meeting by keeping guard, but they shall do no service. Thus shall you do to the Levites in assigning their duties.” They may assist their brothers in performing their duties at the tent of meeting, but they themselves must not do the work. This, then, is how you are to assign the responsibilities of the Levites.”
