وَقَالَ الرَّبُّ لِمُوسَى: | ١ 1 |
The LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
«أَوْصِ هَرُونَ وَقُلْ لَهُ: مَتَى أَضَأْتَ سُرُجَ الْمَنَارَةِ السَّبْعَةَ، فَاجْعَلْ نُورَهَا يَنْعَكِسُ إِلَى الأَمَامِ». | ٢ 2 |
“Speak to Aaron, and tell him, ‘When you light the lamps, the seven lamps shall give light in front of the lamp stand.’”
فَنَفَّذَ هَرُونُ الأَمْرَ، إِذْ جَعَلَ أَنْوَارَ الْمَنَارَةِ تَنْعَكِسُ أَمَامَهَا كَمَا أَمَرَ الرَّبُّ مُوسَى. | ٣ 3 |
Aaron did so. He lit its lamps to light the area in front of the lamp stand, as the LORD commanded Moses.
أَمَّا الْمَنَارَةُ فَكَانَتْ مَطْرُوقَةً مِنْ ذَهَبٍ هِيَ وَسَاقُهَا وَزَهْرُهَا وَفْقاً لِلْمِثَالِ الَّذِي أَرَاهُ الرَّبُّ لِمُوسَى. | ٤ 4 |
This was the workmanship of the lamp stand, beaten work of gold. From its base to its flowers, it was beaten work. He made the lamp stand according to the pattern which the LORD had shown Moses.
وَقَالَ الرَّبُّ لِمُوسَى: | ٥ 5 |
The LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
«أَفْرِزِ اللّاوِيِّينَ مِنْ بَيْنِ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ وَطَهِّرْهُمْ. | ٦ 6 |
“Take the Levites from amongst the children of Israel, and cleanse them.
وَهَذَا مَا تَفْعَلُهُ لِتَطْهِيرِهِمْ: رُشَّ عَلَيْهِمْ مَاءَ الْخَطِيئَةِ، ثُمَّ لِيَحْلِقُوا شَعْرَ جَسَدِهِمْ، وَيَغْسِلُوا ثِيَابَهُمْ فَيَتَطَهَّرُوا. | ٧ 7 |
You shall do this to them to cleanse them: sprinkle the water of cleansing on them, let them shave their whole bodies with a razor, let them wash their clothes, and cleanse themselves.
ثُمَّ لِيُحْضِرُوا ثَوْراً مَعَ تَقْدِمَةٍ مِنْ دَقِيقٍ مَعْجُونٍ بِزَيْتٍ، وَعِجْلاً آخَرَ لِيَكُونَ ذَبِيحَةَ خَطِيئَةٍ. | ٨ 8 |
Then let them take a young bull and its meal offering, fine flour mixed with oil; and another young bull you shall take for a sin offering.
وَتُوْقِفُ اللّاوِيِّينَ أَمَامَ خَيْمَةِ الاجْتِمَاعِ وَتَجْمَعُ كُلَّ شَعْبِ إِسْرَائِيلَ. | ٩ 9 |
You shall present the Levites before the Tent of Meeting. You shall assemble the whole congregation of the children of Israel.
وَتُقَدِّمُ اللّاوِيِّينَ أَمَامَ الرَّبِّ فَيَضَعُ بَنُو إِسْرَائِيلَ أَيْدِيَهُمْ عَلَيْهِمْ. | ١٠ 10 |
You shall present the Levites before the LORD. The children of Israel shall lay their hands on the Levites,
وَلْيُرَجِّحْ هَرُونُ يَدَيْهِ أَمَامَ الرَّبِّ كَرَمْزٍ لِتَقْدِيمِ اللّاوِيِّينَ مِنْ بَيْنِ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ، لِيَقُومُوا بِخِدْمَةِ الرَّبِّ. | ١١ 11 |
and Aaron shall offer the Levites before the LORD for a wave offering on the behalf of the children of Israel, that it may be theirs to do the service of the LORD.
ثُمَّ يَضَعُ اللّاوِيُّونَ أَيْدِيَهُمْ عَلَى رَأْسَيِ الْعِجْلَيْنِ، فَتُقَرِّبُ أَحَدَهُمَا ذَبِيحَةَ خَطِيئَةٍ وَالآخَرَ مُحْرَقَةً لِلرَّبِّ تَكْفِيراً عَنِ اللّاوِيِّينَ. | ١٢ 12 |
“The Levites shall lay their hands on the heads of the bulls, and you shall offer the one for a sin offering and the other for a burnt offering to the LORD, to make atonement for the Levites.
وَاجْعَلِ اللّاوِيِّينَ يَقِفُونَ أَمَامَ هَرُونَ وَأَبْنَائِهِ وَقَدِّمْهُمْ كَتَقْدِمَةِ تَرْجِيحٍ لِلرَّبِّ. | ١٣ 13 |
You shall set the Levites before Aaron and before his sons, and offer them as a wave offering to the LORD.
وَأَفْرِزِ اللّاوِيِّينَ مِنْ بَيْنِ شَعْبِ إِسْرَائِيلَ لِيَكُونُوا مِلْكاً لِي | ١٤ 14 |
Thus you shall separate the Levites from amongst the children of Israel, and the Levites shall be mine.
ثُمَّ يُقْبِلُ اللّاوِيُّونَ عَلَى خِدْمَةِ خَيْمَةِ الاجْتِمَاعِ، فَتُطَهِّرُهُمْ وَتَجْعَلُهُمْ تَقْدِمَةَ تَرْجِيحٍ، | ١٥ 15 |
“After that, the Levites shall go in to do the service of the Tent of Meeting. You shall cleanse them, and offer them as a wave offering.
لأَنَّهُمْ قَدْ وُهِبُوا لِي مِنْ بَيْنِ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ، فَقَدِ اسْتَعَضْتُ بِهِمْ عَنْ كُلِّ بِكْرٍ فَاتِحِ رَحِمٍ مِنْ إِسْرَائِيلَ، | ١٦ 16 |
For they are wholly given to me from amongst the children of Israel; instead of all who open the womb, even the firstborn of all the children of Israel, I have taken them to me.
لأَنَّ كُلَّ بِكْرٍ فِي إِسْرَائِيلَ مِنَ النَّاسِ وَالْبَهَائِمِ هُوَ لِي، إِذْ قَدَّسْتُهُمْ لِي يَوْمَ قَضَيْتُ عَلَى كُلِّ بِكْرٍ فِي دِيَارِ مِصْرَ. | ١٧ 17 |
For all the firstborn amongst the children of Israel are mine, both man and animal. On the day that I struck all the firstborn in the land of Egypt, I sanctified them for myself.
فَاسْتَعَضْتُ بِاللّاوِيِّينَ عَنْ كُلِّ بِكْرٍ لِي مِنْ شَعْبِ إِسْرَائِيلَ. | ١٨ 18 |
I have taken the Levites instead of all the firstborn amongst the children of Israel.
وَقَدْ وَهَبْتُ اللّاوِيِّينَ لِهَرُونَ وَأَبْنَائِهِ مِنْ بَيْنِ شَعْبِ إِسْرَائِيلَ، لِيَقُومُوا عَلَى خِدْمَةِ خَيْمَةِ الاجْتِمَاعِ، عِوَضاً عَنْ شَعْبِ إِسْرَائِيلَ، وَلِلتَّكْفِيرِ عَنْهُمْ، لِئَلّا يَتَفَشَّى وَبَأٌ فِي إِسْرَائِيلَ عِنْدَ اقْتِرَابِهِمْ مِنَ الْقُدْسِ». | ١٩ 19 |
I have given the Levites as a gift to Aaron and to his sons from amongst the children of Israel, to do the service of the children of Israel in the Tent of Meeting, and to make atonement for the children of Israel, so that there will be no plague amongst the children of Israel when the children of Israel come near to the sanctuary.”
فَفَعَلَ مُوسَى وَهَرُونُ وَشَعْبُ إِسْرَائِيلَ لِلّاوِيِّينَ، بِكُلِّ دِقَّةٍ، جَمِيعَ مَا أَمَرَ الرَّبُّ بِهِ | ٢٠ 20 |
Moses, and Aaron, and all the congregation of the children of Israel did so to the Levites. According to all that the LORD commanded Moses concerning the Levites, so the children of Israel did to them.
فَتَطَهَّرَ اللّاوِيُّونَ وَغَسَّلُوا ثِيَابَهُمْ وَأَحْضَرَهُمْ هَرُونُ أَمَامَ الرَّبِّ كَتَقْدِمَةِ تَرْجِيحٍ وَكَفَّرَ عَنْهُمْ تَطْهِيراً لَهُمْ. | ٢١ 21 |
The Levites purified themselves from sin, and they washed their clothes; and Aaron offered them for a wave offering before the LORD and Aaron made atonement for them to cleanse them.
وَبَعْدَ ذَلِكَ أَقْبَلَ اللّاوِيُّونَ عَلَى خِدْمَةِ خَيْمَةِ الاجْتِمَاعِ تَحْتَ إِشْرَافِ هَرُونَ وَأَبْنَائِهِ، وَهَكَذَا تَمَّ تَنْفِيذُ كُلِّ مَا أَمَرَ الرَّبُّ بِهِ بِشَأْنِ اللّاوِيِّينَ. | ٢٢ 22 |
After that, the Levites went in to do their service in the Tent of Meeting before Aaron and before his sons: as the LORD had commanded Moses concerning the Levites, so they did to them.
وَقَالَ الرَّبُّ لِمُوسَى: | ٢٣ 23 |
The LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
«هَذِهِ هِيَ شَرِيعَةُ اللّاوِيِّينَ: كُلُّ لاوِيٍّ عُمْرُهُ خَمْسٌ وَعِشْرُونَ سَنَةً فَمَا فَوْقُ، يُجَنَّدُ فِي خِدْمَةِ خَيْمَةِ الاجْتِمَاعِ. | ٢٤ 24 |
“This is what is assigned to the Levites: from twenty-five years old and upward they shall go in to wait on the service in the work of the Tent of Meeting;
وَلَكِنَّهُمْ يَتَقَاعَدُونَ عَنِ الْخِدْمَةِ عِنْدَ بُلُوغِهِمِ الْخَمْسِينَ مِنَ الْعُمْرِ. | ٢٥ 25 |
and from the age of fifty years they shall retire from doing the work, and shall serve no more,
إِنَّمَا يُمْكِنُهُمْ بَعْدَ سِنِّ الْخَمْسِينَ أَنْ يُسَاعِدُوا إِخْوَتَهُمُ الْقَائِمِينَ بِوَاجِبَاتِهِمْ، وَلَكِنَّهُمْ لَا يَتَوَلَّوْنَ هُمُ الْخِدْمَةَ. فَهَذَا مَا يَتَوَجَّبُ عَلَيْكَ أَنْ تَعْهَدَ بِهِ للّاوِيِّينَ مِنْ مَسْؤولِيَّاتٍ». | ٢٦ 26 |
but shall assist their brothers in the Tent of Meeting, to perform the duty, and shall perform no service. This is how you shall have the Levites do their duties.”
