3 They shall attend to your needs and aall the needs of the tabernacle; bbut they shall not come near the articles of the sanctuary and the altar, clest they die—they and you also.
4 They shall be joined with you and attend to the needs of the tabernacle of meeting, for all the work of the tabernacle; abut an outsider shall not come near you.
5 And you shall attend to the duties of the sanctuary and athe duties of the altar, bthat there may be no more wrath on the children of Israel.
6 Behold, I Myself have ataken your brethren the Levites from among the children of Israel; bthey are a gift to you, given by the Lord, to do the work of the tabernacle of meeting.
7 Therefore ayou and your sons with you shall attend to your priesthood for everything at the altar and bbehind the veil; and you shall serve. I give your priesthood to you as a cgift for service, but the outsider who comes near shall be put to death.”

8 And the Lord spoke to Aaron: “Here, aI Myself have also given you charge of My heave offerings, all the holy gifts of the children of Israel; I have given them bas a portion to you and your sons, as an ordinance forever.
