1 And these the generations of Aaron and Moses, in the day Jehovah spake to Moses in mount Sinai.

2 And these the names of the sons of Aaron: the first-born Nadab, and Abihu, and Eleazar and Ithamar.

3 These the names of the sons of Aaron, the priests being anointed, of whom he filled their hands to be priests.

4 And Nadab and Abihu will die before Jehovah in their bringing strange fire before Jehovah, in the desert of Sinai: and there were no sons to them: and Eleazar will be priest, and Ithamar, before Aaron their father.

5 And Jehovah will speak to Moses, saying,

6 Bring near the tribe of Levi, and make it stand before Aaron the priest; and they served him.

7 And they watched his watches, and the watches of all the assembly before the tent of appointment to do the work of the dwelling.

8 And they shall watch all the vessels of the tent of appointment, and the watches of the sons of Israel, to do the work of the dwelling.

9 And give the Levites to Aaron and to his sons; being given they were given to him from the sons of Israel.
