Numbers 18:7 in Context — Numbers 18

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.

9 Voici ce qui t’appartiendra parmi les choses très saintes qui ne sont pas consumées par le feu: toutes leurs offrandes, tous leurs dons, tous leurs sacrifices d’expiation, et tous les sacrifices de culpabilité qu’ils m’offriront; ces choses très saintes seront pour toi et pour tes fils.
