UJehova wathi ku -Aroni: Awuyikuba nafa ezweni lakubo , futhi ungabi nasabelo phakathi kwabo ; mina ngiyisabelo sakho nefa lakho phakathi kwabantwana bakwa-Israyeli.

Kepha amaLevi ayakugcina inkonzo yetende lokuhlangana, athwale ububi bawo; kuyakuba yisimiso esiphakade ezizukulwaneni zenu ; naphakathi kwabantwana bakwa-Israyeli abayikuba nafa.

Ngokuba okweshumi kwabantwana bakwa-Israyeli abanikela ngakho, kube ngumnikelo wokuphakanyiswa kuJehova , ngikunikile amaLevi kube yifa lawo; ngalokho ngishilo kuwo, ngathi: Phakathi kwabantwana bakwa-Israyeli aniyikuba nafa.

niyakwenama phambi kukaJehova uNkulunkulu wenu , nina namadodana enu, namadodakazi enu , nezinceku zenu , nezincekukazi zenu , nomLevi ophakathi kwamasango enu, lokhu engenasabelo nafa kini.

nomLevi ophakathi kwamasango akho awuyikumeyisa , ngokuba akanasabelo nafa nawe.

nomLevi, lokhu engenasabelo nafa nawe , nomfokazi, nentandane, nomfelokazi, abangaphakathi kwamasango akho , bayakuza, badle, basuthe ukuba uJehova uNkulunkulu wakho akubusise emsebenzini wonke wesandla sakho owenzayo.

Abapristi bamaLevi, yebo, sonke isizwe sakwaLevi asiyikuba nasabelo nafa kanye no-Israyeli; siyakudla iminikelo yomlilo kaJehova nefa lakhe.

Asiyikuba nafa phakathi kwabafowabo ; uJehova uyifa laso , njengalokho ekhulumile kuso.

Ngokuba nafa, ukuphila kwenu kufihliwe noKristu kuNkulunkulu;
