ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹ And the LORD spake unto Moses and unto Aaron, saying,

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁵ And when the camp setteth forward, Aaron shall come, and his sons, and they shall take down the covering vail, and cover the ark of testimony with it:

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁸ And four wagons and eight oxen he gave unto the sons of Merari, according unto their service, under the hand of Ithamar the son of Aaron the priest.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

² Speak unto Aaron, and say unto him, When thou lightest the lamps, the seven lamps shall give light over against the candlestick.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

³ And Aaron did so; he lighted the lamps thereof over against the candlestick, as the LORD commanded Moses.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁶ And there were certain men, who were defiled by the dead body of a man, that they could not keep the passover on that day: and they came before Moses and before Aaron on that day:

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁷ And Moses and Aaron took these men which are expressed by their names:

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁴⁴ These are those that were numbered, which Moses and Aaron numbered, and the princes of Israel, being twelve twelve men: each one was for the house of his fathers.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁸ And the sons of Aaron, the priests, shall blow with the trumpets; and they shall be to you for an ordinance for ever throughout your generations.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹ And Miriam and Aaron spake against Moses because of the Ethiopian woman whom he had married: for he had married an Ethiopian woman.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁴ And the LORD spake suddenly unto Moses, and unto Aaron, and unto Miriam, Come out ye three unto the tabernacle of the congregation. And they three came out.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁵ And the LORD came down in the pillar of the cloud, and stood in the door of the tabernacle, and called Aaron and Miriam: and they both came forth.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁸ With him will I speak mouth to mouth, even apparently, and not in dark speeches; and the similitude of the LORD shall he behold: wherefore then were ye not afraid to speak against my servant Moses?

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

² And all the children of Israel murmured against Moses and against Aaron: and the whole congregation said unto them, Would God that we had died in the land of Egypt! or would God we had died in this wilderness!

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

³ And wherefore hath the LORD brought us unto this land, to fall by the sword, that our wives and our children should be a prey? were it not better for us to return into Egypt?

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁴ And they said one to another, Let us make a captain, and let us return into Egypt.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁵ Then Moses and Aaron fell on their faces before all the assembly of the congregation of the children of Israel.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

³ And they gathered themselves together against Moses and against Aaron, and said unto them, Ye take too much upon you, seeing all the congregation are holy, every one of them, and the LORD is among them: wherefore then lift ye up yourselves above the congregation of the LORD?

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁴ And when Moses heard it, he fell upon his face:

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁵ And he spake unto Korah and unto all his company, saying, Even to morrow the LORD will shew who are his, and who is holy; and will cause him to come near unto him: even him whom he hath chosen will he cause to come near unto him.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁶ This do; Take you censers, Korah, and all his company;

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁷ And put fire therein, and put incense in them before the LORD to morrow: and it shall be that the man whom the LORD doth choose, he shall be holy: ye take too much upon you, ye sons of Levi.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁸ And Moses said unto Korah, Hear, I pray you, ye sons of Levi:

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁹ Seemeth it but a small thing unto you, that the God of Israel hath separated you from the congregation of Israel, to bring you near to himself to do the service of the tabernacle of the LORD, and to stand before the congregation to minister unto them?

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹ And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

² Speak unto the children of Israel, and take of every one of them a rod according to the house of their fathers, of all their princes according to the house of their fathers twelve twelve rods: write thou every man's name upon his rod.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

³ And thou shalt write Aaron's name upon the rod of Levi: for one rod shall be for the head of the house of their fathers.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁴ And thou shalt lay them up in the tabernacle of the congregation before the testimony, where I will meet with you.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁵ And it shall come to pass, that the man's rod, whom I shall choose, shall blossom: and I will make to cease from me the murmurings of the children of Israel, whereby they murmur against you.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁶ And Moses spake unto the children of Israel, and every one of their princes gave him a rod apiece, for each prince one, according to their fathers' houses, even twelve twelve rods: and the rod of Aaron was among their rods.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁷ And Moses laid up the rods before the LORD in the tabernacle of witness.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁸ And it came to pass, that on the morrow Moses went into the tabernacle of witness; and, behold, the rod of Aaron for the house of Levi was budded, and brought forth buds, and bloomed blossoms, and yielded almonds.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁹ And Moses brought out all the rods from before the LORD unto all the children of Israel: and they looked, and took every man his rod.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹ And the LORD said unto Aaron, Thou and thy sons and thy father's house with thee shall bear the iniquity of the sanctuary: and thou and thy sons with thee shall bear the iniquity of your priesthood.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁸ And the LORD spake unto Aaron, Behold, I also have given thee the charge of mine heave offerings of all the hallowed things of the children of Israel; unto thee have I given them by reason of the anointing, and to thy sons, by an ordinance for ever.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹ And the LORD spake unto Moses and unto Aaron, saying,

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

² And there was no water for the congregation: and they gathered themselves together against Moses and against Aaron.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁶ And Moses and Aaron went from the presence of the assembly unto the door of the tabernacle of the congregation, and they fell upon their faces: and the glory of the LORD appeared unto them.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁸ Take the rod, and gather thou the assembly together, thou, and Aaron thy brother, and speak ye unto the rock before their eyes; and it shall give forth his water, and thou shalt bring forth to them water out of the rock: so thou shalt give the congregation and their beasts drink.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁷ And when Phinehas, the son of Eleazar, the son of Aaron the priest, saw it, he rose up from among the congregation, and took a javelin in his hand;

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹ And it came to pass after the plague, that the LORD spake unto Moses and unto Eleazar the son of Aaron the priest, saying,

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁹ And the sons of Eliab; Nemuel, and Dathan, and Abiram. This is that Dathan and Abiram, which were famous famous in the congregation, who strove against Moses and against Aaron in the company of Korah, when they strove against the LORD:

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁰ And thou shalt appoint Aaron and his sons, and they shall wait on their priest's office: and the stranger that cometh nigh shall be put to death.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

³² And Eleazar the son of Aaron the priest shall be chief over the chief of the Levites, and have the oversight of them that keep the charge of the sanctuary.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

³⁸ But those that encamp before the tabernacle toward the east, even before the tabernacle of the congregation eastward, shall be Moses, and Aaron and his sons, keeping the charge of the sanctuary for the charge of the children of Israel; and the stranger that cometh nigh shall be put to death.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

³⁹ All that were numbered of the Levites, which Moses and Aaron numbered at the commandment of the LORD, throughout their families, all the males from a month old and upward, were twenty and two thousand.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁴⁸ And thou shalt give the money, wherewith the odd number of them is to be redeemed, unto Aaron and to his sons.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁵¹ And Moses gave the money of them that were redeemed redeemed unto Aaron and to his sons, according to the word of the LORD, as the LORD commanded Moses.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹ These are the journeys of the children of Israel, which went forth out of the land of Egypt with their armies under the hand of Moses and Aaron.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁵ And when Aaron and his sons have made an end of covering the sanctuary, and all the vessels of the sanctuary, as the camp is to set forward; after that, the sons of Kohath shall come to bear it: but they shall not touch any holy thing, lest they die. These things are the burden of the sons of Kohath in the tabernacle of the congregation.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁶ And to the office of Eleazar the son of Aaron the priest pertaineth the oil for the light, and the sweet incense, and the daily meat offering, and the anointing oil, and the oversight of all the tabernacle, and of all that therein is, in the sanctuary, and in the vessels thereof.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁷ And the LORD spake unto Moses and unto Aaron, saying,

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁹ But thus do unto them, that they may live, and not die, when they approach unto the most holy things: Aaron and his sons shall go in, and appoint them every one to his service and to his burden:

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²⁷ At the appointment of Aaron and his sons shall be all the service of the sons of the Gershonites, in all their burdens, and in all their service: and ye shall appoint unto them in charge all their burdens.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²⁸ This is the service of the families of the sons of Gershon in the tabernacle of the congregation: and their charge shall be under the hand of Ithamar the son of Aaron the priest.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

³³ This is the service of the families of the sons of Merari, according to all their service, in the tabernacle of the congregation, under the hand of Ithamar the son of Aaron the priest.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

³⁴ And Moses and Aaron and the chief of the congregation numbered the sons of the Kohathites after their families, and after the house of their fathers,

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

³⁷ These were they that were numbered of the families of the Kohathites, all that might do service in the tabernacle of the congregation, which Moses and Aaron did number according to the commandment of the LORD by the hand of Moses.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁴¹ These are they that were numbered of the families of the sons of Gershon, of all that might do service in the tabernacle of the congregation, whom Moses and Aaron did number according to the commandment of the LORD.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁴⁵ These be those that were numbered of the families of the sons of Merari, whom Moses and Aaron numbered according to the word of the LORD by the hand of Moses.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁴⁶ All those that were numbered of the Levites, whom Moses and Aaron and the chief of Israel numbered, after their families, and after the house of their fathers,

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²³ Speak unto Aaron and unto his sons, saying, On this wise ye shall bless the children of Israel, saying unto them,

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

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.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹³ And thou shalt set the Levites before Aaron, and before his sons, and offer them for an offering unto the LORD.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁹ And I have given the Levites as a gift to Aaron and to his sons from among the children of Israel, to do the service of the children of Israel in the tabernacle of the congregation, and to make an atonement for the children of Israel: that there be no plague among the children of Israel, when the children of Israel come nigh unto the sanctuary.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²⁰ And Moses, and Aaron, and all the congregation of the children of Israel, did to the Levites according unto all that the LORD commanded Moses concerning the Levites, so did the children of Israel unto them.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²¹ And the Levites were purified, and they washed their clothes; and Aaron offered them as an offering before the LORD; and Aaron made an atonement for them to cleanse them.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²² And after that went the Levites in to do their service in the tabernacle of the congregation before Aaron, and before his sons: as the LORD had commanded Moses concerning the Levites, so did they unto them.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁰ And the cloud departed from off the tabernacle; and, behold, Miriam became leprous, white as snow: and Aaron looked upon Miriam, and, behold, she was leprous.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹¹ And Aaron said unto Moses, Alas, my lord, I beseech thee, lay not the sin upon us, wherein we have done foolishly, and wherein we have sinned.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹² Let her not be as one dead, dead, of whom the flesh is half consumed when he cometh out of his mother's womb.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²⁶ And they went and came to Moses, and to Aaron, and to all the congregation of the children of Israel, unto the wilderness of Paran, to Kadesh; and brought back word unto them, and unto all the congregation, and shewed them the fruit of the land.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁰ But all the congregation bade stone them with stones. And the glory of the LORD appeared in the tabernacle of the congregation before all the children of Israel.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²⁶ And the LORD spake unto Moses and unto Aaron, saying,

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

³³ And they that found him gathering sticks brought him unto Moses and Aaron, and unto all the congregation.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁰ And he hath brought thee near to him, and all thy brethren the sons of Levi with thee: and seek ye the priesthood also?

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹¹ For which cause both thou and all thy company are gathered together against the LORD: and what is Aaron, that ye murmur against him?

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁶ And Moses said unto Korah, Be thou and all thy company before the LORD, thou, and they, and Aaron, to morrow:

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁷ And take every man his censer, and put incense in them, and bring ye before the LORD every man his censer, two hundred and fifty censers; thou also, and Aaron, each of you his censer.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁸ And they took every man his censer, and put fire in them, and laid incense thereon, and stood in the door of the tabernacle of the congregation with Moses and Aaron.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²⁰ And the LORD spake unto Moses and unto Aaron, saying,

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

³⁷ Speak unto Eleazar the son of Aaron the priest, that he take up the censers out of the burning, and scatter thou the fire yonder; for they are hallowed.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁴⁰ To be a memorial unto the children of Israel, that no stranger, stranger, which is not of the seed of Aaron, come near to offer incense before the LORD; that he be not as Korah, and as his company: as the LORD said to him by the hand of Moses.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁴¹ But on the morrow all the congregation of the children of Israel murmured against Moses and against Aaron, saying, Ye have killed the people of the LORD.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁴² And it came to pass, when the congregation was gathered against Moses and against Aaron, that they looked toward the tabernacle of the congregation: and, behold, the cloud covered it, and the glory of the LORD appeared.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁴³ And Moses and Aaron came before the tabernacle of the congregation.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁴⁶ And Moses said unto Aaron, Take a censer, and put fire therein from off the altar, and put on incense, and go quickly unto the congregation, and make an atonement for them: for there is wrath gone out from the LORD; the plague is begun.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁴⁷ And Aaron took as Moses commanded, and ran into the midst of the congregation; and, behold, the plague was begun among the people: and he put on incense, and made an atonement for the people.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁴⁸ And he stood between the dead and the living; and the plague was stayed.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁵⁰ And Aaron returned unto Moses unto the door of the tabernacle of the congregation: and the plague was stayed.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁰ And the LORD said unto Moses, Bring Aaron's rod again before the testimony, to be kept for a token against the rebels; rebels; and thou shalt quite take away their murmurings from me, that they die not.
