Numbers 3:6-10 ▼

6 “Bring the tribe of Levi near, and you have caused it to stand before Aaron the priest, and they have served him,

7 and kept his charge, and the charge of all the congregation before the Tent of Meeting, to do the service of the Dwelling Place;

8 and they have kept all the vessels of the Tent of Meeting, and the charge of the sons of Israel, to do the service of the Dwelling Place;

9 and you have given the Levites to Aaron and to his sons; they are surely given to him out of the sons of Israel.

10 And you appoint Aaron and his sons, and they have kept their priesthood, and the stranger who comes near is put to death.”
