गन्ती 3

1 यो परमप्रभु सीनै पर्वतमाथि मोशासँग बोल्नुहुँदा हारून र मोशाका सन्तानहरूको इतिहास हो ।

Now these are the generations of Aaron and Moses in the day that Jehovah spoke with Moses in mount Sinai:

2 हारूनका छोराका नाउँहरू यिनै हुन्: जेठा नादाब, अबीहू, एलाजार र ईतामार थिए ।

And these are the names of the sons of Aaron: Nadab the firstborn, and Abihu, Eleazar, and Ithamar.

3 हारून पुजारीका छोराहरूका नाउँहरू यिनै हुन् जसलाई पुजारीको रूपमा अभिषेक गरिएको थियो र पुजारीको रूपमा सेवा गर्न नियुक्‍त गरिएका थिए ।

These are the names of the sons of Aaron, the priests who were anointed, whom he consecrated to minister in the priest's office.

4 तर नादाब र अबीहूले सीनै पर्वतमा अस्वीकार्य आगो परमप्रभुलाई चढाउँदा तिनीहरू उहाँको सामु मरे । नादाब र अबीहूका कुनै छोराछोरी थिएन । यसैले एलाजार र ईतामारले तिनीहरूका बुबा हारूनसँग पुजारीको रूपमा सेवा गरे ।

And Nadab and Abihu died before Jehovah when they offered strange fire before Jehovah in the wilderness of Sinai, and they had no sons. And Eleazar and Ithamar ministered in the priest's office in the presence of Aaron their father.

5 परमप्रभुले मोशालाई भन्‍नुभयो,

And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,

6 “लेवीको कुललाई ले र तिनीहरूले पुजारी हारूनलाई सहायता गर्नको निम्ति तिनीहरूलाई तिनीकहाँ प्रस्तुत गर् ।

Bring the tribe of Levi near, and set them before Aaron the priest, that they may minister to him.

7 तिनीहरूले भेट हुने पालको सामु हारून र सारा समुदायको तर्फबाट दायित्वहरू पुरा गर्नुपर्छ । तिनीहरूले पवित्र वासस्थानमा सेवा गर्नुपर्छ ।

And they shall keep his charge, and the charge of the whole congregation before the tent of meeting, to do the service of the tabernacle.

8 तिनीहरूले भेट हुने पालका सबै सरसामानको हेरचाह गर्नुपर्छ र तिनीहरूले पवित्र वासस्थानको सेवा वहन गर्न इस्राएलका कुलहरूलाई सहायता गर्नुपर्छ ।

And they shall keep all the furniture of the tent of meeting, and the charge of the sons of Israel, to do the service of the tabernacle.

9 तैँले लेवीहरू हारून र तिनका छोराहरूलाई दिनुपर्छ । इस्राएलका मानिसहरूलाई सेवा गर्न तिनलाई सहायता गर्न तिनीहरूलाई पूर्ण रूपमा सुम्पिएका छन् ।

And thou shall give the Levites to Aaron and to his sons. They are wholly given to him on the behalf of the sons of Israel.

10 तैँले हारून र तिनका छोराहरूलाई पुजारीको रूपमा नियुक्‍त गर्नुपर्छ र नजिक आउने कुनै पनि मानिसलाई मार्नुपर्छ ।”

And thou shall appoint Aaron and his sons, and they shall keep their priesthood. And the stranger who comes near shall be put to death.

11 परमप्रभुले मोशालाई भन्‍नुभयो,

And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,

12 “हेर्, मैले लेवीहरूलाई इस्राएलका मानिसहरूबाट लिएको छु । मैले यो इस्राएलका मानिसहरूका जेठा छोराहरूको सट्टा लिएको छु । लेवीहरू मेरा हुन् ।

And I, behold, I have taken the Levites from among the sons of Israel instead of all the firstborn who opens the womb among the sons of Israel. And the Levites shall be mine,

13 पहिले जन्मेका सबै मेरा हुन् । मैले मिश्र देशमा पहिले जन्मेकाहरूलाई आक्रमण गरेको दिन नै इस्राएलका मानिस र पशुहरू दुवैको पहिले जन्मेका सबैलाई मेरो निम्ति अलग गरेँ । तिनीहरू मेरा हुन् । म परमप्रभु हुँ ।”

for all the firstborn are mine. On the day that I smote all the firstborn in the land of Egypt I hallowed to me all the firstborn in Israel, both man and beast. They shall be mine. I am Jehovah.

14 परमप्रभुले सीनैको मरुभूमिमा मोशालाई भन्‍नुभयो,

15 “लेवीका हरेक कुल र परिवार-परिवारअनुसार गन्ती गर् । एक महिना र त्यसभन्दा माथिका सबै पुरुषको गन्ती गर् ।

Number the sons of Levi by their fathers' houses, by their families. Thou shall number them, every male from a month old and upward.

And for the redemption of the two hundred and seventy-three of the firstborn of the sons of Israel, who are over and above the number of the Levites,
