Numbers 1:53Lighthouse Bible 2006But the Levites shall pitch round about the tabernacle of testimony, that there be no wrath upon the congregation of the children of Israel: and the Levites shall have the oversight of the tabernacle of testimony. See the chapter |
And they burn unto the LORD every morning and every evening burnt sacrifices and sweet incense: the showbread also they set in order upon the pure table; and the candlestick of gold with the lamps thereof, to burn every evening: for we obey the instruction of the LORD our God; but you have forsaken him.
But those that encamp before the tabernacle toward the east, even before the tabernacle of the congregation eastward, shall be Moses, and Aaron and his sons, having the responsibilities of the sanctuary for the charge of the children of Israel; and the stranger that comes near shall be put to death.
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 near to the sanctuary.
