وَهَذِهِ هِيَ مَوَالِيدُ هَروُنَ وَمُوسَى يَوْمَ خَاطَبَ الرَّبُّ مُوسَى فِي جَبَلِ سِينَاءَ: ١ 1
Now this is the history of the generations of Aaron and Moses in the day that the LORD spoke with Moses in Mount Sinai.
هَذِهِ هِيَ أَسْمَاءُ أَبْنَاءِ هَرُونَ: نَادَابُ الْبِكْرُ، وَأَبِيهُو، وَأَلِعَازَارُ، وَإِيثَامَارُ، ٢ 2
These are the names of the sons of Aaron: Nadab the firstborn, and Abihu, Eleazar, and Ithamar.
الَّذِينَ كَانُوا كَهَنَةً مَمْسُوحِينَ تَكَرَّسُوا لِلْكَهَنُوتِ. ٣ 3
These are the names of the sons of Aaron, the priests who were anointed, whom he consecrated to minister in the priest’s office.
إِلّا أَنَّ نَادَابَ وَأَبِيهُو مَاتَا بَيْنَ يَدَيِ الرَّبِّ عِنْدَمَا قَرَّبَا نَاراً غَرِيبَةً أَمَامَهُ فِي صَحْرَاءِ سِينَاءَ، وَلَمْ يَكُنْ لَهُمَا بَنُون. وَأَمَّا أَلِعَازَارُ وَإِيثَامَارُ فَقَدْ قَامَا بِخِدْمَةِ الْكَهَنُوتِ تَحْتَ رِعَايَةِ أَبِيهِمَا هَرُونَ. ٤ 4
Nadab and Abihu died before the LORD when they offered strange fire before the LORD in the wilderness of Sinai, and they had no children. Eleazar and Ithamar ministered in the priest’s office in the presence of Aaron their father.
وَقَالَ الرَّبُّ لِمُوسَى: ٥ 5
The LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
«أَحْضِرْ سِبْطَ لاوِي لِيَمْثُلُوا أَمَامَ هَرُونَ الْكَاهِنِ وَيَخْدِمُوهُ. ٦ 6
“Bring the tribe of Levi near, and set them before Aaron the priest, that they may minister to him.
وَيُحَافِظُوا عَلَى شَعَائِرِهِ وَشَعَائِرِ كُلِّ الشَّعْبِ أَمَامَ خَيْمَةِ الاجْتِمَاعِ، وَيَقُومُوا بِخِدْمَةِ الْمَسْكَنِ، ٧ 7
They shall keep his requirements, and the requirements of the whole congregation before the Tent of Meeting, to do the service of the tabernacle.
وَيَحْرُسُوا كُلَّ أَمْتِعَةِ خَيْمَةِ الاجْتِمَاعِ، وَيَنُوبُوا عَنِ الشَّعْبِ فِي تَأْدِيَةِ وَاجِبَاتِ خِدْمَةِ الْمَسْكَنِ. ٨ 8
They shall keep all the furnishings of the Tent of Meeting, and the obligations of the children of Israel, to do the service of the tabernacle.
وَلْيَكُنِ اللّاوِيُّونَ تَحْتَ إِمْرَةِ هَرُونَ وَأَبْنَائِهِ هِبَةً لَهُ مِنْ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ. ٩ 9
You shall give the Levites to Aaron and to his sons. They are wholly given to him on the behalf of the children of Israel.
أَمَّا هَرُونُ وَأَبْنَاؤُهُ فَهُمْ وَحْدُهُمْ يَقُومُونَ بِخِدْمَةِ الْكَهَنُوتِ، وَأَيُّ وَاحِدٍ سِوَاهُمْ يَقْتَرِبُ مِنَ الْمَقْدِسِ يُقْتَلُ». ١٠ 10
You shall appoint Aaron and his sons, and they shall keep their priesthood, but the stranger who comes near shall be put to death.”
وَقَالَ الرَّبُّ لِمُوسَى: ١١ 11
The LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
«هَا إِنِّي قَدْ أَفْرَزْتُ اللّاوِيِّينَ مِنْ بَيْنِ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ بَدَلاً مِنْ أَبْكَارِ الشَّعْبِ، فَيَكُونُ اللّاوِيُّونَ خَاصَّتِي، ١٢ 12
“Behold, I have taken the Levites from amongst the children of Israel instead of all the firstborn who open the womb amongst the children of Israel; and the Levites shall be mine,
لأَنَّ كُلَّ بِكْرٍ مِنْ شَعْبِ إِسْرَائِيلَ هُوَ لِي. فَقَدْ أَفْرَزْتُ لِي كُلَّ بِكْرٍ فِي إِسْرَائِيلَ مِنَ النَّاسِ وَالْبَهَائِمِ مُنْذُ أَنْ أَهْلَكْتُ كُلَّ بِكْرٍ فِي دِيَارِ مِصْرَ. لِي يَكُونُونَ. أَنَا الرَّبُّ». ١٣ 13
for all the firstborn are mine. On the day that I struck down all the firstborn in the land of Egypt I made holy to me all the firstborn in Israel, both man and animal. They shall be mine. I am the LORD.”
وَقَالَ الرَّبُّ لِمُوسَى فِي صَحْرَاءِ سِينَاءَ: ١٤ 14
The LORD spoke to Moses in the wilderness of Sinai, saying,
«أَحْصِ كُلَّ ذَكَرٍ مِنْ أَبْنَاءِ سِبْطِ لاوِي مِنِ ابْنِ شَهْرٍ فَمَا فَوْقُ، حَسَبَ بُيُوتِ آبَائِهِمْ وَعَشَائِرِهِمْ». ١٥ 15
“Count the children of Levi by their fathers’ houses, by their families. You shall count every male from a month old and upward.”
فَأَحْصَاهُمْ مُوسَى وَفْقاً لأَمْرِ الرَّبِّ. ١٦ 16

and you shall give the money, with which their remainder is redeemed, to Aaron and to his sons.”
فَجَمَعَ مُوسَى فِضَّةَ الْفِدْيَةِ مِنَ الزَّائِدِينَ عَنْ عَدَدِ اللّاوِيِّينَ فِدَاءً لَهُمْ. ٤٩ 49

from the firstborn of the children of Israel he took the money, one thousand and three hundred and sixty-five shekels, according to the shekel of the sanctuary;
