Chapter 8
And
the
Lord
spake
unto
Moses,
saying,
2
Speak
unto
Aaron,
and
say
unto
him,
When
thou
lightest
the
lamps,
the
seven
lamps
shall
give
light
over
against
the
candlestick.
3
And
Aaron
did
so;
he
lighted
the
lamps
thereof
over
against
the
candlestick,
as
the
Lord
commanded
Moses.
4
And
this
work
of
the
candlestick
was
of
beaten
gold,
unto
the
shaft
thereof,
unto
the
flowers
thereof,
was
beaten
work:
according
unto
the
pattern
which
the
Lord
had
shewed
Moses,
so
he
made
the
candlestick.
5
And
the
Lord
spake
unto
Moses,
saying,
6
Take
the
Levites
from
among
the
children
of
Israel,
and
cleanse
them.
7
And
thus
shalt
thou
do
unto
them,
to
cleanse
them:
Sprinkle
water
of
purifying
upon
them,
and
let
them
shave
all
their
flesh,
and
let
them
wash
their
clothes,
and
so
make
themselves
clean.
8
Then
let
them
take
a
young
bullock
with
his
meat
offering,
even
fine
flour
mingled
with
oil,
and
another
young
bullock
shalt
thou
take
for
a
sin
offering.
9
And
thou
shalt
bring
the
Levites
before
the
tabernacle
of
the
congregation:
and
thou
shalt
gather
the
whole
assembly
of
the
children
of
Israel
together:
10
And
thou
shalt
bring
the
Levites
before
the
Lord:
and
the
children
of
Israel
shall
put
their
hands
upon
the
Levites:
11
And
Aaron
shall
offer
the
Levites
before
the
Lord
for
an
offering
of
the
children
of
Israel,
that
they
may
execute
the
service
of
the
Lord.
12
And
the
Levites
shall
lay
their
hands
upon
the
heads
of
the
bullocks:
and
thou
shalt
offer
the
one
for
a
sin
offering,
and
the
other
for
a
burnt
offering,
unto
the
Lord,
to
make
an
atonement
for
the
Levites.
13
And
thou
shalt
set
the
Levites
before
Aaron,
and
before
his
sons,
and
offer
them
for
an
offering
unto
the
Lord.
14
Thus
shalt
thou
separate
the
Levites
from
among
the
children
of
Israel:
and
the
Levites
shall
be
mine.
15
And
after
that
shall
the
Levites
go
in
to
do
the
service
of
the
tabernacle
of
the
congregation:
and
thou
shalt
cleanse
them,
and
offer
them
for
an
offering.
16
For
they
are
wholly
given
unto
me
from
among
the
children
of
Israel;
instead
of
such
as
open
every
womb,
even
instead
of
the
firstborn
of
all
the
children
of
Israel,
have
I
taken
them
unto
me.
17
For
all
the
firstborn
of
the
children
of
Israel
are
mine,
both
man
and
beast:
on
the
day
that
I
smote
every
firstborn
in
the
land
of
Egypt
I
sanctified
them
for
myself.
18
And
I
have
taken
the
Levites
for
all
the
firstborn
of
the
children
of
Israel.
19
And
I
have
given
the
Levites
as
a
gift
to
Aaron
and
to
his
sons
from
among
the
children
of
Israel,
to
do
the
service
of
the
children
of
Israel
in
the
tabernacle
of
the
congregation,
and
to
make
an
atonement
for
the
children
of
Israel:
that
there
be
no
plague
among
the
children
of
Israel,
when
the
children
of
Israel
come
nigh
unto
the
sanctuary.
20
And
Moses,
and
Aaron,
and
all
the
congregation
of
the
children
of
Israel,
did
to
the
Levites
according
unto
all
that
the
Lord
commanded
Moses
concerning
the
Levites,
so
did
the
children
of
Israel
unto
them.
21
And
the
Levites
were
purified,
and
they
washed
their
clothes;
and
Aaron
offered
them
as
an
offering
before
the
Lord;
and
Aaron
made
an
atonement
for
them
to
cleanse
them.
22
And
after
that
went
the
Levites
in
to
do
their
service
in
the
tabernacle
of
the
congregation
before
Aaron,
and
before
his
sons:
as
the
Lord
had
commanded
Moses
concerning
the
Levites,
so
did
they
unto
them.
23
And
the
Lord
spake
unto
Moses,
saying,
24
This
is
it
that
belongeth
unto
the
Levites:
from
twenty
and
five
years
old
and
upward
they
shall
go
in
to
wait
upon
the
service
of
the
tabernacle
of
the
congregation:
25
And
from
the
age
of
fifty
years
they
shall
cease
waiting
upon
the
service
thereof,
and
shall
serve
no
more:
26
But
shall
minister
with
their
brethren
in
the
tabernacle
of
the
congregation,
to
keep
the
charge,
and
shall
do
no
service.
Thus
shalt
thou
do
unto
the
Levites
touching
their
charge.
