Числа 3
1 И сия рождения Аарона и Моисеа, в день в оньже глагола Господь Моисею на горе Синайстей:
These are some of the things that happened to Aaron and Moses/me when Yahweh spoke to Moses/me on Sinai Mountain.
2 и сия имена сынов Аароних: первенец Надав и Авиуд, и Елеазар и Ифамар:
Aaron’s four sons were Nadab the oldest, Abihu, Eleazar, and Ithamar.
3 сия имена сынов Аароних, жерцы помазаныя, имже совершишася руце их жрети:
They were appointed [MTY] (OR, Moses/I appointed them) to be priests.
4 и скончашася Надав и Авиуд пред Господем, приносящым им огнь чуждь пред Господем в пустыни Синайстей, и чад не бе им: и жречествоваху Елеазар и Ифамар со Аароном, отцем своим.
But, while Yahweh was watching, Nadab and Abihu died in the Sinai Desert because they burned [incense] in a manner that was different from what Yahweh had commanded. They had no sons, so Eleazar and Ithamar were the [only] sons of Aaron who [were left to be] priests, along with their father Aaron.
5 И рече Господь к Моисею, глаголя:
Then Yahweh said to Moses/me,
6 поими племя Левиино, и поставиши я пред Аароном жерцем, и да служат ему:
“Bring [the men of] the tribe of Levi and present them to Aaron, in order that they may assist him.
7 и да стрегут стражбы его и стражбы сынов Израилевых пред скиниею свидения, делати дела скинии:
They will serve Aaron and all the other Israeli people, while they do their work inside the Sacred Tent and outside it.
8 и да хранят вся сосуды скинии свидения и стражбы сынов Израилевых по всем делом скинии:
They must serve all the Israeli people by taking care of all the things that are inside the Sacred Tent.
9 и да даси левиты Аарону брату твоему и сыном его жерцем: в дар даны сии Мне суть от сынов Израилевых:
Appoint them to [help] Aaron and his two sons. I have chosen them from all the Israeli people to do that.
10 и Аарона и сыны его поставиши над скиниею свидения, и да хранят жречество свое, и вся яже у олтаря и внутрь завесы: иноплеменник же прикасаяйся умрет.
Appoint Aaron and his two sons to do the work that priests do. But anyone else who comes close to the Sacred Tent [to do that work] must be executed.”
11 И рече Господь к Моисею, глаголя:
Yahweh also told Moses/me,
12 и се, Аз взях левиты от среды сынов Израилевых, вместо всякаго первенца, отверзающаго ложесна от сынов Израилевых: искупления их будут, и да будут Мне левити:
“Note that from all the Israelis, I have chosen the men of the tribe of Levi to take the places of all the firstborn sons of the Israeli people. The male descendants of Levi belong to me,
13 Мне бо всяк первенец: в оньже день побих всякаго первенца в земли Египетстей, освятих Себе всякаго первенца во Израили, от человека до скота Мне да будут: Аз Господь.
because truly all the firstborn [males] belong to me. That is because on the day that I killed all the firstborn [sons] of the people of Egypt, I [spared] all the firstborn [sons] of the Israelis and set them apart for myself. I also set apart the firstborn [males] of your domestic animals. They belong to me, Yahweh.”
14 И рече Господь к Моисею в пустыни Синайстей, глаголя:
Yahweh spoke to Moses/me again in the Sinai Desert. He said,
15 соглядай сынов Левииных по домом отечеств их по сонмом их, по рождению их: всяк мужеск пол от месяца единаго и вышше да соглядаете их.
“Count the male members of the tribe of Levi. Write down their names and the names of their clans and family groups. Count all the males who are at least one month old.”
16 И сочте их Моисей и Аарон повелением Господним, якоже повеле им Господь.
So Moses/I counted them, just as Yahweh commanded.
17 И бяху сии сынове Левиины от имен их: Гирсон, Кааф и Мерари.
Levi had [three] sons, whose names were Gershon, Kohath, and Merari.

Aaron and Moses/I and Aaron’s sons were told to set up their/our tents in the area in front of the Sacred Tent, on the east side. Their/Our work was to supervise the work that would be done in and around the Sacred Tent, for the benefit of the Israeli people. Only the priests were permitted to do that. [Yahweh declared that] we should execute anyone else who went near the tent [to do the work that the priests do].
39 Все соглядание левитов, ихже согляда Моисей и Аарон повелением Господним по сонмом их, всяк мужеск пол от месяца единаго и вышше, двадесять и две тысящы.
When Aaron and Moses/I counted all the males who were at least one month old, who belonged to the clans descended from Levi, the total was 22,000.

Then Yahweh said to Moses/me, “Now count all the [other] firstborn males in Israel who are at least one month old, and write down their names.
41 и да поймеши Мне левиты за вся первенцы сынов Израилевых: Аз Господь: и скоты левитски вместо всех первенцев в скотех сынов Израилевых.
Also, set apart for me the descendants of Levi to be substitutes for the firstborn males of the other Israelis. And set apart for me the livestock of the descendants of Levi to be substitutes for the firstborn livestock of the other Israeli people.”
42 И согляда Моисей, якоже заповеда ему Господь, всякаго первенца в сынех Израилевых.
So Moses/I did that. He/I counted the firstborn males of all the Israeli people, as Yahweh had commanded.

“Set apart the descendants of Levi to be substitutes for [the firstborn males of] the other Israeli people. The descendants of Levi belong to me, Yahweh.
