Revised Geneva Translation

¹⁷ And the LORD spoke to Moses and to Aaron, saying,

¹⁸ “You shall not cut off the tribe of the families of the Kohathites from among the Levites.

¹⁹ “But do this to them so that they may live and not die when they come near to the Most Holy things. Let Aaron and his sons come and appoint them, everyone to his office and to his charge.
