| [1]And the sons of Aaron, Nadab and Abihu, take each his censer, and put in them fire, and put on it perfume, and bring near before Jehovah strange fire, which He hath not commanded them; |
[1]But Nadab and Abihu, the sons of Aaron, took either of them his censer, and put fire therein, and put incense thereupon, and offered strange fire before the Lord, which he had not commanded them. |
| [2]and fire goeth out from before Jehovah, and consumeth them, and they die before Jehovah. |
[2]Therefore a fire went out from the Lord, and devoured them: so they died before the Lord. |
| [3]And Moses saith unto Aaron, `It [is] that which Jehovah hath spoken, saying, By those drawing near to Me I am sanctified, and in the face of all the people I am honoured;' and Aaron is silent. |
[3]Then Moses said unto Aaron, This is it that the Lord spake, saying, I will be sanctified in them that come near me, and before all the people I will be glorified: but Aaron held his peace. |
| [4]And Moses calleth unto Mishael and unto Elzaphan, sons of Uzziel, uncle of Aaron, and saith unto them, `Come near, bear your brethren from the front of the sanctuary unto the outside of the camp;' |
[4]And Moses called Mishael and Elzaphan the sons of Uzziel, the uncle of Aaron, and said unto them, Come near, carry your brethren from before the sanctuary out of the host. |
| [5]and they come near, and bear them in their coats unto the outside of the camp, as Moses hath spoken. |
[5]Then they went, and carried them in their coats out of the host, as Moses had commanded. |
| [6]And Moses saith unto Aaron, and to Eleazar, and to Ithamar his sons, `Your heads ye do not uncover, and your garments ye do not rend, that ye die not, and on all the company He be wroth; as to your brethren, the whole house of Israel, they bewail the burning which Jehovah hath kindled; |
[6]After, Moses said unto Aaron and unto Eleazar and Ithamar his sons, Uncover not your heads, neither rent your clothes, lest ye die, and lest wrath come upon all the people: but let your brethren, all the house of Israel bewail the burning which the Lord hath kindled. |
| [7]and from the opening of the tent of meeting ye do not go out, lest ye die, for the anointing oil of Jehovah [is] upon you;' and they do according to the word of Moses. |
[7]And go not ye out from the door of the tabernacle of the congregation, lest ye die: for the anointing oil of the Lord is upon you: and they did according to Moses commandment. |
| [8]And Jehovah speaketh unto Aaron, saying, |
[8]And the Lord spake unto Aaron, saying, |
| [9]`Wine and strong drink thou dost not drink, thou, and thy sons with thee, in your going in unto the tent of meeting, and ye die not -- a statute age-during to your generations; |
[9]Thou shalt not drink wine nor strong drink, thou, nor thy sons with thee, when ye come into the tabernacle of the congregation, lest ye die: this is an ordinance forever throughout your generations, |
| [10]so as to make a separation between the holy and the common, and between the unclean and the pure; |
[10]That ye may put difference between the holy and the unholy, and between the clean and the unclean, |
| [11]and to teach the sons of Israel all the statutes which Jehovah hath spoken unto them by the hand of Moses.' |
[11]And that ye may teach the children of Israel all the statutes which the Lord hath commanded them by the hand of Moses. |
| [12]And Moses speaketh unto Aaron, and unto Eleazar, and unto Ithamar his sons, who are left, `Take ye the present that is left from the fire-offerings of Jehovah, and eat it unleavened near the altar, for it [is] most holy, |
[12]Then Moses said unto Aaron and unto Eleazar and to Ithamar his sons that were left, Take the meat offering that remaineth of the offerings of the Lord, made by fire, and eat it without leaven beside the altar: for it is most holy: |
| [13]and ye have eaten it in the holy place, for it [is] thy portion, and the portion of thy sons, from the fire-offerings of Jehovah; for so I have been commanded. |
[13]And ye shall eat it in the holy place, because it is thy duty and thy sons' duty of the offerings of the Lord made by fire: for so I am commanded. |
| [14]`And the breast of the wave-offering, and the leg of the heave-offering, ye do eat in a clean place, thou, and thy sons, and thy daughters with thee; for thy portion and the portion of thy sons they have been given, out of the sacrifices of peace-offerings of the sons of Israel; |
[14]Also the shaken breast and the heave shoulder shall ye eat in a clean place: thou, and thy sons, and thy daughters with thee: for they are given as thy duty and thy sons' duty, of the peace offerings of the children of Israel. |
| [15]the leg of the heave-offering, and breast of the wave-offering, besides fire-offerings of the fat, they do bring in to wave a wave-offering before Jehovah, and it hath been to thee, and to thy sons with thee, by a statute age-during, as Jehovah hath commanded.' |
[15]The heave shoulder, and the shaken breast shall they bring with the offerings made by fire of the fat, to shake it to and fro before the Lord, and it shall be thine and thy sons with thee by a law forever, as the Lord hath commanded. |
| [16]And the goat of the sin-offering hath Moses diligently sought, and lo, it is burnt, and he is wroth against Eleazar, and against Ithamar, sons of Aaron, who are left, saying, |
[16]And Moses sought the goat that was offered for sin, and lo, it was burned: therefore he was angry with Eleazar and Ithamar the sons of Aaron, which were left alive, saying, |
| [17]`Wherefore have ye not eaten the sin-offering in the holy place, for it [is] most holy -- and it He hath given to you to take away the iniquity of the company, to make atonement for them before Jehovah? |
[17]Wherefore have ye not eaten the sin offering in the holy place, seeing it is most holy? And God hath given it you, to bear the iniquity of the congregation, to make an atonement for them before the Lord. |
| [18]lo, its blood hath not been brought in unto the holy place within; eating ye do eat it in the holy place, as I have commanded.' |
[18]Behold, the blood of it was not brought within the holy place: ye should have eaten it in the holy place, as I commanded. |
| [19]And Aaron speaketh unto Moses, `Lo, to-day they have brought near their sin-offering and their burnt-offering before Jehovah; and [things] like these meet me, yet I have eaten a sin-offering to-day; is it good in the eyes of Jehovah?' |
[19]And Aaron said unto Moses, Behold, this day have they offered their sin offering, and their burnt offering before the Lord, and such things as thou knowest are come unto me: If I had eaten the sin offering today, should it have been accepted in the sight of the Lord? |
| [20]And Moses hearkeneth, and it is good in his eyes. |
[20]So when Moses heard it, he was content. |
