7:89 And when Moses was gone into the tabernacle of the congregation to
speak with him, then he heard the voice of one speaking unto him from
off the mercy seat that was upon the ark of testimony, from between the
two cherubims: and he spake unto him.
8:1 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
8:2 Speak unto Aaron and say unto him, When thou lightest the lamps, the
seven lamps shall give light over against the candlestick.
8:3 And Aaron did so; he lighted the lamps thereof over against the
candlestick, as the LORD commanded Moses.
8:4 And this work of the candlestick was of beaten gold, unto the shaft
thereof, unto the flowers thereof, was beaten work: according unto the
pattern which the LORD had shewed Moses, so he made the candlestick.
8:5 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
8:6 Take the Levites from among the children of Israel, and cleanse
them.
8:7 And thus shalt thou do unto them, to cleanse them: Sprinkle water of
purifying upon them, and let them shave all their flesh, and let them
wash their clothes, and so make themselves clean.
8:8 Then let them take a young bullock with his meat offering, even fine
flour mingled with oil, and another young bullock shalt thou take for a
sin offering.
8:9 And thou shalt bring the Levites before the tabernacle of the
congregation: and thou shalt gather the whole assembly of the children
of Israel together:
8:10 And thou shalt bring the Levites before the LORD: and the children
of Israel shall put their hands upon the Levites:
8:11 And Aaron shall offer the Levites before the LORD for an offering
of the children of Israel, that they may execute the service of the
LORD.
