008:022 After that, the Levites went in to do their service in
the Tent of Meeting before Aaron, and before his sons:
as Yahweh had commanded Moses concerning the Levites,
so they did to them.
008:023 Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying,
008:024 "This is that which belongs to the Levites: from twenty-five
years old and upward they shall go in to wait on the service
in the work of the Tent of Meeting;
008:025 and from the age of fifty years they shall cease waiting
on the work, and shall serve no more,
008:026 but shall minister with their brothers in the Tent
of Meeting, to keep the charge, and shall do no service.
Thus shall you do to the Levites concerning their duties."
009:001 Yahweh spoke to Moses in the wilderness of Sinai, in the first
month of the second year after they had come out of the land
of Egypt, saying,
009:002 "Moreover let the children of Israel keep the Passover
in its appointed season.
009:003 On the fourteenth day of this month, at evening, you shall keep
it in its appointed season--according to all its statutes,
and according to all its ordinances, you shall keep it."
009:004 Moses spoke to the children of Israel, that they should
keep the Passover.
009:005 They kept the Passover in the first month, on the fourteenth
day of the month, at evening, in the wilderness of Sinai.
According to all that Yahweh commanded Moses, so the children
of Israel did.
009:006 There were certain men, who were unclean because of the dead body
of a man, so that they could not keep the Passover on that day,
and they came before Moses and before Aaron on that day.
009:007 Those men said to him, "We are unclean because of the dead
body of a man. Why are we kept back, that we may not offer
the offering of Yahweh in its appointed season among
the children of Israel?"
009:008 Moses answered them, "Wait, that I may hear what Yahweh will
command concerning you."
009:009 Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying,
009:010 "Say to the children of Israel, 'If any man of you or of your
generations is unclean by reason of a dead body, or is on a
journey far away, he shall still keep the Passover to Yahweh.
009:011 In the second month, on the fourteenth day at evening they
shall keep it; they shall eat it with unleavened bread
and bitter herbs.
009:012 They shall leave none of it until the morning, nor break a bone
of it. According to all the statute of the Passover they
shall keep it.
009:013 But the man who is clean, and is not on a journey, and fails
