Numbers 18:6 in Context — Numbers 18

4 Ils te seront attachés, et ils observeront ce qui concerne la tente d’assignation pour tout le service de la tente. Aucun étranger n’approchera de vous.

5 Vous observerez ce qui concerne le sanctuaire et l’autel, afin qu’il n’y ait plus de colère contre les enfants d’Israël.

6 Voici, j’ai pris vos frères les Lévites du milieu des enfants d’Israël: donnés à l’Éternel, ils vous sont remis en don pour faire le service de la tente d’assignation.

7 Toi, et tes fils avec toi, vous observerez les fonctions de votre sacerdoce pour tout ce qui concerne l’autel et pour ce qui est en dedans du voile: c’est le service que vous ferez. Je vous accorde en pur don l’exercice du sacerdoce. L’étranger qui approchera sera mis à mort.

8 L’Éternel dit à Aaron: Voici, de toutes les choses que consacrent les enfants d’Israël, je te donne celles qui me sont offertes par élévation; je te les donne, à toi et à tes fils, comme droit d’onction, par une loi perpétuelle.
