Num 18:1 The LORD said to Aaron, "You, your sons, and your family will be responsible for any sins against the holy place. You and your sons will also be responsible for any sins you commit when you work as priests.
Num 18:2 Bring the other Levites from your ancestor's tribe to join you and help you and your sons serve in front of the tent of the words of my promise.
Num 18:3 They will work for you, doing whatever work is necessary for the whole tent. But they must not come near the altar or the furnishings in the holy place, or they will die, and you will die, too.
Num 18:4 They will join you and do whatever work is necessary for the tent of meeting, including all the maintenance work for the tent. But no one else may come near you.
Num 18:5 "You must be in charge of the work done at the holy place and at the altar. Then I won't show my anger against the Israelites again.
Num 18:6 I have chosen the other Levites from among the Israelites to help you. They are a gift given to the LORD to do whatever work is necessary at the tent of meeting.
Num 18:7 Only you and your sons may do the work of priests-everything done at the altar and under the canopy. This is my gift to you: You may serve me as priests. Anyone else who comes near the holy place to do this work must die."
Num 18:8 The LORD said to Aaron, "I am putting you in charge of all the contributions given to me. I am giving you and your descendants all the holy gifts from the Israelites as your share. These contributions will always be yours.
Num 18:9 That part of the most holy offerings which is not burned belongs to you. It may come from a grain offering, an offering for sin, or a guilt offering. Whatever is brought to me as a most holy offering will belong to you and your sons.
Num 18:10 Eat it in a most holy place. Any male may eat it. You must consider it holy.
Num 18:11 "The contributions that come as gifts taken from the offerings presented by the Israelites are also yours. I am giving these to you, your sons, and your daughters. They will always be yours. Anyone in your household who is clean may eat them.
Num 18:12 "I am also giving you the first of the produce they give the LORD: the best of all the olive oil and the best of the new wine and fresh grain.
Num 18:13 The first of all produce harvested in their land that they bring to the LORD is yours. Anyone in your household who is clean may eat it.
Num 18:14 "Anything in Israel that is claimed by the LORD is yours.
Num 18:15 Every firstborn male, human or animal, that is brought to the LORD is yours. But you must buy back every firstborn son and the firstborn male of any unclean animal.
Num 18:16 When they are one month old, you must buy them back at the fixed price of two ounces of silver using the standard weight of the holy place.
Num 18:17 "But you must never buy back a firstborn ox, sheep, or goat. They are holy. Throw the blood from these animals against the altar, and burn the fat as an offering by fire, a soothing aroma to the LORD.
Num 18:18 But the meat is yours, like the breast and the right thigh that are presented.
Num 18:19 I am giving you, your sons, and your daughters all the holy contributions the Israelites bring to the LORD. These contributions will always be yours. It is an everlasting promise of salt in the LORD'S presence for you and your descendants."
Num 18:20 The LORD said to Aaron, "You will have no land or property of your own as the other Israelites will have. I am your possession and your property among the Israelites.
Num 18:21 "I am giving the Levites one-tenth of every Israelite's income. This is in return for the work they do at the tent of meeting.
Num 18:22 The other Israelites must never again come near the tent of meeting. Otherwise, they'll suffer the consequences of their sin and die.
Num 18:23 Only the Levites will do the work at the tent of meeting. They will be responsible for their own sins. This is a permanent law for future generations. They will own no property as the other Israelites will.
Num 18:24 Instead, I will give the Levites what the Israelites contribute to the LORD-one-tenth of the Israelites' income. This is why I said about them, 'They will own no property as the other Israelites do.'"
Num 18:25 The LORD said to Moses,
Num 18:26 "Speak to the Levites and say to them: You will take one-tenth of the Israelites' income which I'm giving you as your property. When you do, you must contribute one-tenth of that income as your contribution to the LORD.
Num 18:27 Your contribution will be considered to be grain from the threshing floor or juice from the winepress.
Num 18:28 So you, too, will contribute one-tenth of your income to the LORD out of all that you receive from the Israelites' income. You will give the LORD'S contribution to the priest Aaron.
Num 18:29 Out of all the gifts you receive, you must contribute the best and holiest parts to the LORD.
Num 18:30 "Also tell them: When you contribute the best part, your contribution will be considered to be produce from the threshing floor or winepress.
Num 18:31 So you and your households may eat it anywhere, because it's the wages you receive for your work at the tent of meeting.
Num 18:32 When you contribute the best part, you won't suffer the consequences of any sin. You won't be dishonoring the holy offerings given by the Israelites, and you won't die."
Num 18:2 Bring the other Levites from your ancestor's tribe to join you and help you and your sons serve in front of the tent of the words of my promise.
Num 18:4 They will join you and do whatever work is necessary for the tent of meeting, including all the maintenance work for the tent. But no one else may come near you.
Num 18:5 "You must be in charge of the work done at the holy place and at the altar. Then I won't show my anger against the Israelites again.

Num 18:9 That part of the most holy offerings which is not burned belongs to you. It may come from a grain offering, an offering for sin, or a guilt offering. Whatever is brought to me as a most holy offering will belong to you and your sons.
Num 18:10 Eat it in a most holy place. Any male may eat it. You must consider it holy.
Num 18:11 "The contributions that come as gifts taken from the offerings presented by the Israelites are also yours. I am giving these to you, your sons, and your daughters. They will always be yours. Anyone in your household who is clean may eat them.
Num 18:12 "I am also giving you the first of the produce they give the LORD: the best of all the olive oil and the best of the new wine and fresh grain.
Num 18:14 "Anything in Israel that is claimed by the LORD is yours.

Num 18:22 The other Israelites must never again come near the tent of meeting. Otherwise, they'll suffer the consequences of their sin and die.
Num 18:23 Only the Levites will do the work at the tent of meeting. They will be responsible for their own sins. This is a permanent law for future generations. They will own no property as the other Israelites will.
Num 18:24 Instead, I will give the Levites what the Israelites contribute to the LORD-one-tenth of the Israelites' income. This is why I said about them, 'They will own no property as the other Israelites do.'"
Num 18:25 The LORD said to Moses,
Num 18:26 "Speak to the Levites and say to them: You will take one-tenth of the Israelites' income which I'm giving you as your property. When you do, you must contribute one-tenth of that income as your contribution to the LORD.
Num 18:27 Your contribution will be considered to be grain from the threshing floor or juice from the winepress.
Num 18:28 So you, too, will contribute one-tenth of your income to the LORD out of all that you receive from the Israelites' income. You will give the LORD'S contribution to the priest Aaron.
Num 18:30 "Also tell them: When you contribute the best part, your contribution will be considered to be produce from the threshing floor or winepress.
Num 18:31 So you and your households may eat it anywhere, because it's the wages you receive for your work at the tent of meeting.
Num 18:32 When you contribute the best part, you won't suffer the consequences of any sin. You won't be dishonoring the holy offerings given by the Israelites, and you won't die."
Num 1:1 The LORD spoke to Moses in the tent of meeting in the Desert of Sinai. It was the first day of the second month in the second year after leaving Egypt. He said,
Num 1:2 "Take a census of the whole community of Israel by families and households. List every man by name
Num 1:3 who is at least 20 years old. You and Aaron must register everyone in Israel who is eligible for military duty. List them by divisions.
Num 1:4 One man from each tribe will help you. Each of these men must be the head of a household.
Num 1:5 "Here are the names of the men who will help you: Elizur, son of Shedeur, from the tribe of Reuben;
Num 1:6 Shelumiel, son of Zurishaddai, from the tribe of Simeon;

Num 1:16 These were the men chosen from the community, the leaders of their ancestors' tribes, and heads of the divisions of Israel.
Num 1:17 Moses and Aaron took the men who had been named
Num 1:18 and assembled the whole community on the first day of the second month. Each man at least 20 years old provided his genealogy by family and household. Then his name was listed.
Num 1:19 So Moses registered the men of Israel in the Desert of Sinai as the LORD had commanded him.
Num 1:20 The roster of families and households for the descendants of Reuben, Israel's firstborn son, listed every man by name who was at least 20 years old and eligible for military duty.

Num 1:46 was 603,550.
Num 1:47 But the households from the tribe of Levi were not registered along with the other Israelites.
Num 1:48 The LORD had said to Moses,
Num 1:49 "Don't register the tribe of Levi or include them in the census with the other Israelites.
Num 1:50 Put the Levites in charge of the tent of God's words, including the equipment for the tent and everything else having to do with the tent. The Levites will carry the tent and all its equipment. They will take care of the tent and camp around it.
Num 1:51 When the tent has to be moved, the Levites will take it down. When we camp, they will set it up. Anyone else who comes near the tent will be put to death.
Num 1:52 "The other Israelites will camp with each family in its own area under its own flag.
Num 1:53 The Levites will camp all around the tent of God's words. In this way the LORD won't be angry with the community of Israel. So the Levites will be in charge of the tent of God's words."
Num 1:54 The Israelites did everything as the LORD commanded Moses.
Num 1:2 "Take a census of the whole community of Israel by families and households. List every man by name
Num 1:3 who is at least 20 years old. You and Aaron must register everyone in Israel who is eligible for military duty. List them by divisions.

Num 1:18 and assembled the whole community on the first day of the second month. Each man at least 20 years old provided his genealogy by family and household. Then his name was listed.

Num 1:45 So the Israelites were registered by households. The grand total of men who were at least 20 years old and eligible for military duty
Num 1:46 was 603,550.
Num 1:47 But the households from the tribe of Levi were not registered along with the other Israelites.
Num 1:49 "Don't register the tribe of Levi or include them in the census with the other Israelites.
Num 1:50 Put the Levites in charge of the tent of God's words, including the equipment for the tent and everything else having to do with the tent. The Levites will carry the tent and all its equipment. They will take care of the tent and camp around it.
Num 1:52 "The other Israelites will camp with each family in its own area under its own flag.
Num 1:53 The Levites will camp all around the tent of God's words. In this way the LORD won't be angry with the community of Israel. So the Levites will be in charge of the tent of God's words."
Num 1:54 The Israelites did everything as the LORD commanded Moses.
Jos 1:2 "My servant Moses is dead. Now you and all these people must cross the Jordan River into the land that I am going to give the people of Israel.
Jos 1:3 I will give you every place on which you set foot, as I promised Moses.
Jos 1:4 Your borders will be the desert on the south, nearby Lebanon to the Euphrates River (the country of the Hittites) on the north, and the Mediterranean Sea on the west.
Jos 1:5 No one will be able to oppose you successfully as long as you live. I will be with you as I was with Moses. I will never neglect you or abandon you.
Jos 1:6 Be strong and courageous, because you will help these people take possession of the land I swore to give their ancestors.
Jos 1:8 Never stop reciting these teachings. You must think about them night and day so that you will faithfully do everything written in them. Only then will you prosper and succeed.
Jos 1:10 Then Joshua ordered the officers of the people,
Jos 1:11 "Go through the camp. Tell the people, 'Get your supplies ready. In three days you will cross the Jordan River to take possession of the land the LORD your God is going to give you.'"
Jos 1:12 Next, Joshua said to the tribes of Reuben and Gad and half of the tribe of Manasseh,
Jos 1:13 "Remember what the LORD'S servant Moses commanded you. Moses said, 'The LORD your God will give you this land-a place to rest.'
Jos 1:15 take possession of the land the LORD your God is going to give them. Then they will have a place to rest like you do. After that, you may go back and take possession of the land east of the Jordan River which the LORD'S servant Moses gave you."
Jos 1:16 The people responded to Joshua, "We'll do everything you tell us and go wherever you send us.
Jos 1:17 We will obey you as we obeyed Moses. May the LORD your God be with you as he was with Moses.
Jos 1:18 Whoever rebels against your authority or does not obey your orders will be put to death. Just be strong and courageous!"
