Numbers 18:3-5
New International Reader's Version
3 The Levites will work for you. They must do everything that needs to be done at the tent. But they must not go near anything that belongs to the sacred tent. And they must not go near the altar. If they do, they and you will die. 4 They will help you take care of the tent of meeting. They will join you in all the work at the tent. No one else can come near you there.
5 “You will be responsible for taking care of the sacred tent and the altar. Then I will not be angry with the Israelites again.
