45 |Separate the descendants of Levi in place of all the firstborn sons of Israel and the livestock of the descendants of Levi in place of their livestock. The descendants of Levi belong to me, since I am the LORD. 46 You are to pay a ransom for the 273 first-born Israelis who exceed the census number of the descendants of Levi, 47 so collect five shekels for each individual, denominated in shekels of the sanctuary, that is, the shekel that weighs 20 gerahs. 48 Then give the money meant for ransom of their excess to Aaron and his sons.| Numbers 3:45-48, Intl. Standard Version. Copyright © 1995-2014 by ISV Foundation.
