*
They shall attend you and attend to all duties of the tent ;
but shall not come near to the vessels of the sanctuary or to the altar ,
lest they ,
and you ,
die .
*
They shall join you ,
and attend to the tent of meeting ,
for all the service of the tent ;
and no one else shall come near you .
*
And you shall attend to the duties of the sanctuary and the duties of the altar ,
that there be wrath no more upon the people of Israel .
*
And behold ,
I have taken your brethren the Levites from among the people of Israel ;
they are a gift to you ,
given to the LORD ,
to do the service of the tent of meeting .
*
And you and your sons with you shall attend to your priesthood for all that concerns the altar and that is within the veil ;
and you shall serve .
I give your priesthood as a gift ,
and any one else who comes near shall be put to death ."
*
Then the LORD said to Aaron , "
And behold ,
I have given you whatever is kept of the offerings made to me ,
all the consecrated things of the people of Israel ;
I have given them to you as a portion ,
and to your sons as a perpetual due .
