Numbers 18:1-3
1599 Geneva Bible
18 1, 7 The office of Aaron and his sons, 2 With the Levites. 8 The Priest’s part of the offerings. 20 God is their portion. 26 The Levites have their tithes, and offer the tenths thereof to the Lord.
1 And the Lord said unto Aaron, Thou, and thy sons, and thy father’s house with thee, shall bear [a]the iniquity of the Sanctuary: both thou and thy sons with thee shall bear the iniquity of your Priest’s office.
2 And bring also with thee thy brethren of the tribe of Levi of the family of thy father which shall be joined with thee, and minister unto thee: but thou and thy sons with thee shall minister before the Tabernacle of the Testimony:
3 And they shall [b]keep my charge, even the charge of all the Tabernacle: but they shall not come near the instruments of the Sanctuary, nor to the altar, lest they die, both they and you.
