A   And the LORDE sayde vnto Aaron: Thou ∧ thy sonnes, ∧ thy fathers house &wt; the shal beare the my&esset;dede of þe; S&abar;ctuary: ∧ thou ∧ thy sonnes &wt; the, shall beare the my&esset;dede of yo&highr; presthode. ^noteBut thy brethren of the trybe of Leui þi; father, shal come nye the, ∧ be ioyned vnto the, that they maye mynistre vnto þe;. But thou ∧ thy sonnes &wt; the, shal mynistre before þe; Tabernacle of witnesse. And they shal wayte vp&obar; þe; seruyce ∧ vpon þe; seruyce of the whole Tabernacle. But nye vnto the vessels of þe; S&abar;ctuary ∧ to the altare, shall they not come, þt; both they ∧ ye dye not: howbeit they shal be ioyned vnto the, to wayte vp&obar; the mynistracion in the Tabernacle of witnesse, in all the seruice of the Tabernacle. And there shal no straunger come nye vnto you.

Therfore wayte now vpon the seruyce of the Sanctuary, and vpon the seruyce of the altare, that there come no more wrath vpon the children of Israel. For lo, I haue tak&ebar; yo&highr; brethr&ebar; the Leuites fr&obar; amonge the children of Israel, to be youre gifte, for a presente vnto þe; LORDE, to do þe; seruyce in þe; Tabernacle of witnes. B   As for þe;, and þi; sonnes with the, ye shal waite vpon youre prestes office, that ye maye ministre in all maner busynes of the altare, and within the vayle: for yo&highr; prestes office geue I vnto you for a gifte to do seruyce. Yf a straunger come nye, he shall dye.

And the LORDE sayde vnto Aaron: beholde, I haue geuen the my Heueofferynges: And all that the children of Israel halowe, haue I geuen vnto the, and to thy sonnes for a perpetuall dewtye. This shalt thou haue of the most holy thinges that they offer. All their giftes with all their meatofferinges, and with all their synofferynges, and &wt; all their trespace offerynges, that they geue me, the same shal be most holy vnto the and þi; sonnes. In the most holy place shalt thou eate it. All that are males shall eate therof: For it shal be holy vnto the.

C    ^noteThe Heue offerynge of their giftes in all the Waueofferynges of the children of Israel, haue I geuen vnto the also, and to thy sonnes, and to thy doughters for a perpetuall dewtye. Who so is cleane in thy house, shal eate therof. All the fat of the oyle, and all þe; fat of the wyne and corne of their firstlinges, that they geue vnto the LORDE, haue I geuen vnto þe;. The first frutes of all that is in their londe, which they bringe vnto the LORDE, shal be thine. Who so euer is cleane in thine house, shal eate therof.

All dedicate thinges in Israel shal be thine. All that breaketh the Matrix amonge all flesh, which they brynge vnto the LORDE, whether it be man or beest, shalbe thine. But so, that thou cause the firstborne of m&abar; to be redemed, and that thou cause the first borne of vncleane beestes to be redemed also (They shal redeme it whan it is a moneth olde, and shall geue it lowse for money, euen for fyue Sycles, after the Sycle of the Sanctuary, ^note which Sycle is worth twentye Geras.)

But the first frutes of an oxe, or lambe, or goate shalt thou not cause to be redemed for they are holy. Their bloude shalt thou sprenkle vpon the altare, and their fat shalt thou burne for an offerynge of a swete sauoure vnto þe; LORDE. Their flesh shalbe thine, like as þe; Wauebrest and þe; right shulder is thine also. All the Heueofferinges that þe; childr&ebar; of Israel halowe vnto þe; LORDE, haue I geuen vnto the, ∧ to thy sonnes, ∧ to thy doughters with the for a perpetuall dewtie.

This shalbe a salted couena&ubar;t for euer before þe; LORDE, vnto the and thy sede with the.

^noteAnd the LORDE sayde vnto Aar&obar;: Thou shalt inheret nothinge in their londe, ner haue eny porci&obar; amonge them: for I am þi; porcion, and thine enheritaunce am&obar;ge the children of Israel. D   Vnto the children of Leui haue I geuen all the tithes in Israel to inheritaunce, for þe; seruyce which they do vnto me in the Tabernacle of witnesse, that from h&ebar;ce forth the children of Israel come not nye the Tabernacle of witnes, to lade them selues with synne, and to dye: But the Leuites shal do the seruyce in the Tabernacle of witnes, ∧ shal beare their synne, for a perpetuall lawe amonge youre posterities. ^noteAnd they shall inheret none inheritaunce amonge the children of Israel. For þe; tithes of the childr&ebar; of Israel, which they Heue vnto þe; LORDE, haue I geuen vnto the Leuites for an heretage. Therfore haue I sayde vnto them, that they shall inheret no inheritannce amonge the children of Israel.

And þe; LORDE talked &wt; Moses, ∧ saide: Speake to the Leuites, ∧ saye vnto them: Wh&abar; ye take of þe; childr&ebar; of Israel þe; tithes, þt; I haue geuen you of th&ebar; for yo&highr; inherita&ubar;ce, ye shal take an Heueofferinge of the same vnto the LORDE, euen the tenth of the tithe. And the same yo&highr; Heueofferynge shall ye reken, as though ye gaue corne out of the barne, and fullnesse out of the wynepresse.

E   Thus shal ye geue an Heueofferynge vnto the LORDE of all yo&highr; tithes, which ye take of the children of Israel, þt; ye maie geue the same Heueofferynge of þe; LORDE, vnto Aar&obar; þe; prest. And all þt; ye geue of þe; tythes, ∧ halowe vnto þe; LORDE for a gifte, þe; same shall be his of the best. And saye thou vnto them: Whan ye thus Heue vp þe; fat therof, it shalbe rekened vnto the Leuites as the increace of the barne, and as the increace of the wine presse. And ye maye eate it in all places, ye ∧ yo&highr; children: for it is youre rewarde for youre seruyce in the Tabernacle of witnesse: and ye shal not lade synne vpon you in the same, whan ye Heue the fat therof, and vnhalowe not the halowed thinges of the children of Israel, and ye shal not dye.
