< Numbers 3 >

1 Now these are the generations of Aaron and Moses in the day that the LORD spoke with Moses in Mount Sinai.
Inilah keluarga Harun dan Musa pada waktu TUHAN berbicara kepada Musa di atas Gunung Sinai.
2 These are the names of the sons of Aaron: Nadab the firstborn, and Abihu, Eleazar, and Ithamar.
Harun mempunyai empat anak laki-laki: Nadab yang sulung, kemudian Abihu, Eleazar dan Itamar.
3 These are the names of the sons of Aaron, the cohanim who were anointed, whom he consecrated to minister as cohanim.
Mereka ditahbiskan menjadi imam dengan upacara penuangan minyak di atas kepala.
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 office of cohen in the presence of Aaron their father.
Tetapi Nadab dan Abihu mati di padang gurun Sinai, pada saat mereka menghadap TUHAN dengan api yang tidak halal. Mereka berdua tidak mempunyai anak. Jadi selama Harun masih hidup, Eleazar dan Itamar bertugas sebagai imam.
5 The LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
TUHAN berkata kepada Musa,
6 "Bring the tribe of Levi near, and set them before Aaron the cohen, that they may minister to him.
"Suruhlah suku Lewi datang menghadap, dan tunjuklah mereka menjadi pelayan-pelayan Harun.
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.
Mereka bertugas di Kemah-Ku dan harus melayani para imam serta seluruh umat dengan pekerjaan mereka di Kemah-Ku itu.
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.
Tugas mereka ialah mengurus seluruh perlengkapan Kemah-Ku dan melakukan pekerjaan di Kemah-Ku itu sebagai pengganti orang-orang Israel.
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.
Dari bangsa Israel, hanya suku Lewi yang Kutugaskan menjadi pelayan tetap bagi Harun dan keturunannya.
10 And you shall appoint Aaron and his sons, and they shall attend to the duties of cohanim; but the unauthorized person who comes near shall be put to death."
Tetapi Harun dan anak-anaknya harus kauangkat untuk menjalankan tugas sebagai imam; selain mereka, siapa saja yang mencoba melakukan tugas itu harus dihukum mati."
11 The LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
TUHAN berkata kepada Musa,
12 "Look, I have taken the Levites from among the children of Israel instead of all the firstborn who open the womb among the children of Israel; and the Levites shall be mine:
"Sekarang orang-orang Lewi Kupilih menjadi milik-Ku. Ketika Aku membunuh semua anak sulung bangsa Mesir, Kukhususkan bagi-Ku semua anak laki-laki sulung orang Israel dan semua ternak mereka yang pertama lahir. Semuanya itu adalah milik-Ku. Sebagai pengganti anak laki-laki sulung Israel, Aku mengambil orang Lewi untuk-Ku; mereka akan menjadi kepunyaan-Ku. Akulah TUHAN."
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."
14 The LORD spoke to Moses in the wilderness of Sinai, saying,
Di padang gurun Sinai TUHAN menyuruh Musa
