Septuagint (Greek Old Testament), second edition
1This is the account of Aaron and Moses at the time the LORD spoke with Moses on Mount Sinai.
1ΚΑΙ αὗται αἱ γενέσεις Ἀαρὼν καὶ Μωυσῆ, ἐν ᾗ ἡμέρᾳ ἐλάλησε Κύριος τῷ Μωυσῇ ἐν ὄρει Σινά.
2These are the names of the sons of Aaron: Nadab the firstborn, then Abihu, Eleazar, and Ithamar.
2καὶ ταῦτα τὰ ὀνόματα τῶν υἱῶν Ἀαρών· πρωτότοκος Ναδάβ, καὶ Ἀβιούδ, Ἐλεάζαρ, καὶ Ἰθάμαρ.
3These were Aaron’s sons, the anointed priests, who were ordained to serve as priests.
3ταῦτα τὰ ὀνόματα τῶν υἱῶν Ἀαρών, οἱ ἱερεῖς οἱ ἠλειμμένοι, οὓς ἐτελείωσαν τὰς χεῖρας αὐτῶν ἱερατεύειν.
4Nadab and Abihu, however, died in the presence of the LORD when they offered unauthorized fire before the LORD in the Wilderness of Sinai. And since they had no sons, only Eleazar and Ithamar served as priests during the lifetime of their father Aaron.
4καὶ ἐτελεύτησε Ναδὰβ καὶ Ἀβιοὺδ ἔναντι Κυρίου, προσφερόντων αὐτῶν πῦρ ἀλλότριον ἔναντι Κυρίου ἐν τῇ ἐρήμῳ Σινά, καὶ παιδία οὐκ ἦν αὐτοῖς· καὶ ἱεράτευσεν Ἐλεάζαρ καὶ Ἰθάμαρ μετὰ Ἀαρὼν τοῦ πατρὸς αὐτῶν.
5Then the LORD said to Moses,
5καὶ ἐλάλησε Κύριος πρὸς Μωυσῆν λέγων·
6“Bring the tribe of Levi and present them to Aaron the priest to assist him.
6λάβε τὴν φυλὴν Λευὶ καὶ στήσεις αὐτοὺς ἐναντίον Ἀαρὼν τοῦ ἱερέως καὶ λειτουργήσουσιν αὐτῷ,
7They are to perform duties for him and for the whole congregation before the Tent of Meeting, attending to the service of the tabernacle.
7καὶ φυλάξουσι τὰς φυλακὰς αὐτοῦ καὶ τὰς φυλακὰς τῶν υἱῶν Ἰσραὴλ ἔναντι τῆς σκηνῆς τοῦ μαρτυρίου, ἐργάζεσθαι τὰ ἔργα τῆς σκηνῆς.
8They shall take care of all the furnishings of the Tent of Meeting and fulfill obligations for the Israelites by attending to the service of the tabernacle.
8καὶ φυλάξουσι πάντα τὰ σκεύη τῆς σκηνῆς τοῦ μαρτυρίου, καὶ τὰς φυλακὰς τῶν υἱῶν Ἰσραὴλ κατὰ πάντα τὰ ἔργα τῆς σκηνῆς.
9Assign the Levites to Aaron and his sons; they have been given exclusively to him from among the Israelites.
9καὶ δώσεις τοὺς Λευίτας Ἀαρὼν καὶ τοῖς υἱοῖς αὐτοῦ τοῖς ἱερεῦσι· δεδομένοι δόμα οὗτοί μοί εἰσιν ἀπὸ τῶν υἱῶν Ἰσραήλ.
10So you shall appoint Aaron and his sons to carry out the duties of the priesthood; but any outsider who approaches the tabernacle must be put to death.”
10καὶ Ἀαρὼν καὶ τοὺς υἱοὺς αὐτοῦ καταστήσεις ἐπὶ τῆς σκηνῆς τοῦ μαρτυρίου, καὶ φυλάξουσι τὴν ἱερατείαν αὐτῶν καὶ πάντα τὰ κατὰ τὸν βωμὸν καὶ ἔσω τοῦ καταπετάσματος· καὶ ὁ ἀλλογενὴς ὁ ἁπτόμενος ἀποθανεῖται.
11Again the LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
11καὶ ἐλάλησε Κύριος πρὸς Μωυσῆν λέγων·
12“Behold, I have taken the Levites from among the children of Israel in place of every firstborn Israelite from the womb. The Levites belong to Me,
12καὶ ἰδοὺ ἐγὼ εἴληφα τοὺς Λευίτας ἐκ μέσου τῶν υἱῶν Ἰσραὴλ ἀντὶ παντὸς πρωτοτόκου διανοίγοντος μήτραν παρὰ τῶν υἱῶν Ἰσραήλ· λύτρα αὐτῶν ἔσονται καὶ ἔσονται ἐμοὶ οἱ Λευῖται·
13for all the firstborn are Mine. On the day I struck down every firstborn in the land of Egypt, I consecrated to Myself all the firstborn in Israel, both man and beast. They are Mine; I am the LORD.”
13ἐμοὶ γὰρ πᾶν πρωτότοκον· ἐν ᾗ ἡμέρᾳ ἐπάταξα πᾶν πρωτότοκον ἐν γῇ Αἰγύπτου, ἡγίασα ἐμοὶ πᾶν πρωτότοκον ἐν Ἰσραὴλ ἀπὸ ἀνθρώπου ἕως κτήνους· ἐμοὶ ἔσονται, ἐγὼ Κύριος.
14Then the LORD spoke to Moses in the Wilderness of Sinai, saying,
14καὶ ἐλάλησε Κύριος πρὸς Μωυσῆν ἐν τῇ ἐρήμῳ Σινὰ λέγων·
15“Number the Levites by their families and clans. You are to count every male a month old or more.”
15ἐπίσκεψαι τοὺς υἱοὺς Λευὶ κατ' οἴκους πατριῶν αὐτῶν, κατὰ δήμους αὐτῶν, κατὰ συγγενείας αὐτῶν· πᾶν ἀρσενικὸν ἀπὸ μηνιαίου καὶ ἐπάνω ἐπισκέψασθε αὐτούς.
16So Moses numbered them according to the word of the LORD, as he had been commanded.
16καὶ ἐπεσκέψαντο αὐτοὺς Μωυσῆς καὶ Ἀαρὼν διὰ φωνῆς Κυρίου, ὃν τρόπον συνέταξεν αὐτοῖς Κύριος.
17These were the sons of Levi by name: Gershon, Kohath, and Merari.
17καὶ ἦσαν οὗτοι οἱ υἱοὶ Λευὶ ἐξ ὀνομάτων αὐτῶν· Γεδσών, Καάθ, καὶ Μεραρί.
18These were the names of the sons of Gershon by their clans: Libni and Shimei.
18καὶ ταῦτα τὰ ὀνόματα τῶν υἱῶν Γερσὼν κατὰ δήμους αὐτῶν· Λοβενὶ καὶ Σεμεΐ.
19The sons of Kohath by their clans were Amram, Izhar, Hebron, and Uzziel.
19καὶ υἱοὶ Καὰθ κατὰ δήμους αὐτῶν· Ἀμρὰμ καὶ Ἰσσαάρ, Χεβρὼν καὶ Ὀζιήλ.
20And the sons of Merari by their clans were Mahli and Mushi. These were the clans of the Levites, according to their families.
20καὶ υἱοὶ Μεραρὶ κατὰ δήμους αὐτῶν· Μοολὶ καὶ Μουσί. οὗτοί εἰσι δῆμοι τῶν Λευιτῶν κατ' οἴκους πατριῶν αὐτῶν.
21From Gershon came the Libnite clan and the Shimeite clan; these were the Gershonite clans.
21τῷ Γερσὼν δῆμος τοῦ Λοβενὶ καὶ δῆμος τοῦ Σεμεΐ· οὗτοι οἱ δῆμοι τοῦ Γεδσών.
22The number of all the males a month old or more was 7,500.
22ἡ ἐπίσκεψις αὐτῶν κατὰ ἀριθμὸν παντὸς ἀρσενικοῦ ἀπὸ μηνιαίου καὶ ἐπάνω, ἡ ἐπίσκεψις αὐτῶν ἑπτακισχίλιοι καὶ πεντακόσιοι.
23The Gershonite clans were to camp on the west, behind the tabernacle,
23καὶ οἱ υἱοὶ Γερσὼν ὀπίσω τῆς σκηνῆς παρεμβαλοῦσι παρὰ θάλασσαν,
24and the leader of the families of the Gershonites was Eliasaph son of Lael.
24καὶ ὁ ἄρχων οἴκου πατριᾶς τοῦ δήμου τοῦ Γεδσών, Ἑλισὰφ υἱὸς Δαήλ.
25The duties of the Gershonites at the Tent of Meeting were the tabernacle and tent, its covering, the curtain for the entrance to the Tent of Meeting,
25καὶ ἡ φυλακὴ υἱῶν Γεδσὼν ἐν τῇ σκηνῇ τοῦ μαρτυρίου· ἡ σκηνὴ καὶ τὸ κάλυμμα, καὶ τὸ κατακάλυμμα τῆς θύρας τῆς σκηνῆς τοῦ μαρτυρίου
26the curtains of the courtyard, the curtain for the entrance to the courtyard that surrounds the tabernacle and altar, and the cords—all the service for these items.
26καὶ τὰ ἱστία τῆς αὐλῆς καὶ τὸ καταπέτασμα τῆς πύλης τῆς αὐλῆς τῆς οὔσης ἐπὶ τῆς σκηνῆς καὶ τὰ κατάλοιπα πάντων τῶν ἔργων αὐτοῦ.
27From Kohath came the clans of the Amramites, the Izharites, the Hebronites, and the Uzzielites; these were the clans of the Kohathites.
27τῷ Καὰθ δῆμος ὁ Ἀμρὰν εἷς, καὶ δῆμος ὁ Ἰσαὰρ εἷς, καὶ δῆμος ὁ Χεβρὼν εἷς, καὶ δῆμος ὁ Ὀζιὴλ εἷς· οὗτοί εἰσιν οἱ δῆμοι τοῦ Καάθ, κατὰ ἀριθμόν.
28The number of all the males a month old or more was 8,600. They were responsible for the duties of the sanctuary.
28πᾶν ἀρσενικὸν ἀπὸ μηνιαίου καὶ ἐπάνω, ὀκτακισχίλιοι καὶ ἐξακόσιοι φυλάσσοντες τὰς φυλακὰς τῶν ἁγίων.
29The clans of the Kohathites were to camp on the south side of the tabernacle,
29οἱ δῆμοι τῶν υἱῶν Καὰθ παρεμβαλοῦσιν ἐκ πλαγίων τῆς σκηνῆς κατὰ λίβα,
30and the leader of the families of the Kohathites was Elizaphan son of Uzziel.
30καὶ ὁ ἄρχων οἴκου πατριῶν τῶν δήμων τοῦ Καὰθ Ἑλισαφάν, υἱὸς Ὀζιήλ.
31Their duties were the ark, the table, the lampstand, the altars, the articles of the sanctuary used with them, and the curtain—all the service for these items.
31καὶ ἡ φυλακὴ αὐτῶν, ἡ κιβωτὸς καὶ ἡ τράπεζα καὶ ἡ λυχνία καὶ τὰ θυσιαστήρια καὶ τὰ σκεύη τοῦ ἁγίου, ὅσα λειτουργοῦσιν ἐν αὐτοῖς καὶ τὸ κατακάλυμμα καὶ πάντα τὰ ἔργα αὐτῶν.
32The chief of the leaders of the Levites was Eleazar son of Aaron the priest; he oversaw those responsible for the duties of the sanctuary.
32καὶ ὁ ἄρχων ἐπὶ τῶν ἀρχόντων τῶν Λευιτῶν, Ἐλεάζαρ ὁ υἱὸς Ἀαρὼν τοῦ ἱερέως, καθεσταμένος φυλάσσειν τὰς φυλακὰς τῶν ἁγίων.
33From Merari came the clans of the Mahlites and Mushites; these were the Merarite clans.
33τῷ Μεραρὶ δῆμος ὁ Μοολὶ καὶ δῆμος ὁ Μουσί· οὗτοί εἰσι δῆμοι τοῦ Μεραρί.
34The number of all the males a month old or more was 6,200.
34ἡ ἐπίσκεψις αὐτῶν κατὰ ἀριθμόν, πᾶν ἀρσενικὸν ἀπὸ μηνιαίου καὶ ἐπάνω, ἑξακισχίλιοι καὶ πεντήκοντα·
35The leader of the families of the Merarites was Zuriel son of Abihail; they were to camp on the north side of the tabernacle.
35καὶ ὁ ἄρχων οἴκου πατριῶν τοῦ δήμου τοῦ Μεραρί, Σουριὴλ υἱὸς Ἀβιχαίλ· ἐκ πλαγίων τῆς σκηνῆς παρεμβαλοῦσι πρὸς βορρᾶν.
36The duties assigned to the sons of Merari were the tabernacle’s frames, crossbars, posts, bases, and all its equipment—all the service for these items,
36ἡ ἐπίσκεψις τῆς φυλακῆς υἱῶν Μεραρί, τὰς κεφαλίδας τῆς σκηνῆς καὶ τοὺς μοχλοὺς αὐτῆς καὶ τοὺς στύλους αὐτῆς, καὶ τὰς βάσεις αὐτῆς καὶ πάντα τὰ σκεύη αὐτῶν καὶ τὰ ἔργα αὐτῶν
37as well as the posts of the surrounding courtyard with their bases, tent pegs, and ropes.
37καὶ τοὺς στύλους τῆς αὐλῆς κύκλῳ καὶ τὰς βάσεις αὐτῶν καὶ τοὺς πασσάλους καὶ τοὺς κάλους αὐτῶν.
38Moses, Aaron, and Aaron’s sons were to camp to the east of the tabernacle, toward the sunrise, before the Tent of Meeting. They were to perform the duties of the sanctuary as a service on behalf of the Israelites; but any outsider who approached the sanctuary was to be put to death.
38οἱ παρεμβάλλοντες κατὰ πρόσωπον τῆς σκηνῆς τοῦ μαρτυρίου ἀπὸ ἀνατολῆς, Μωυσῆς καὶ Ἀαρὼν καὶ οἱ υἱοὶ αὐτοῦ φυλάσσοντες τὰς φυλακὰς τοῦ ἁγίου εἰς τὰς φυλακὰς τῶν υἱῶν Ἰσραήλ· καὶ ὁ ἀλλογενὴς ὁ ἁπτόμενος ἀποθανεῖται.
39The total number of Levites that Moses and Aaron counted by their clans at the LORD’s command, including all the males a month old or more, was 22,000.
39πᾶσα ἡ ἐπίσκεψις τῶν Λευιτῶν, οὓς ἐπεσκέψατο Μωυσῆς καὶ Ἀαρὼν διὰ φωνῆς Κυρίου κατὰ δήμους αὐτῶν, πᾶν ἀρσενικὸν ἀπὸ μηνιαίου καὶ ἐπάνω, δύο καὶ εἴκοσι χιλιάδες.
40Then the LORD said to Moses, “Number every firstborn male of the Israelites a month old or more, and list their names.
40Καὶ εἶπε Κύριος πρὸς Μωυσῆν λέγων· ἐπίσκεψαι πᾶν πρωτότοκον ἄρσεν τῶν υἱῶν Ἰσραὴλ ἀπὸ μηνιαίου καὶ ἐπάνω καὶ λάβε τὸν ἀριθμὸν ἐξ ὀνόματος·
41You are to take the Levites for Me—I am the LORD—in place of all the firstborn of Israel, and the livestock of the Levites in place of all the firstborn of the livestock of the Israelites.”
41καὶ λήψῃ τοὺς Λευίτας ἐμοί, ἐγὼ Κύριος, ἀντὶ πάντων τῶν πρωτοτόκων τῶν υἱῶν Ἰσραὴλ καὶ τὰ κτήνη τῶν Λευιτῶν ἀντὶ πάντων τῶν πρωτοτόκων ἐν τοῖς κτήνεσι τῶν υἱῶν Ἰσραήλ.
42So Moses numbered all the firstborn of the Israelites, as the LORD had commanded him.
42καὶ ἐπεσκέψατο Μωυσῆς, ὃν τρόπον ἐνετείλατο Κύριος πᾶν πρωτότοκον ἐν τοῖς υἱοῖς Ἰσραήλ·
43The total number of the firstborn males a month old or more, listed by name, was 22,273.
43καὶ ἐγένοντο πάντα τὰ πρωτότοκα τὰ ἀρσενικὰ κατὰ ἀριθμὸν ἐξ ὀνόματος ἀπὸ μηνιαίου καὶ ἐπάνω ἐκ τῆς ἐπισκέψεως αὐτῶν δύο καὶ εἴκοσι χιλιάδες καὶ τρεῖς καὶ ἑβδομήκοντα καὶ διακόσιοι.
44Again the LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
44Καὶ ἐλάλησε Κύριος πρὸς Μωυσῆν λέγων·
45“Take the Levites in place of all the firstborn of Israel, and the livestock of the Levites in place of their livestock. The Levites belong to Me; I am the LORD.
45λάβε τοὺς Λευίτας ἀντὶ πάντων τῶν πρωτοτόκων υἱῶν Ἰσραὴλ καὶ τὰ κτήνη τῶν Λευιτῶν ἀντὶ τῶν κτηνῶν αὐτῶν, καὶ ἔσονται ἐμοὶ οἱ Λευῖται· ἐγὼ Κύριος.
46To redeem the 273 firstborn Israelites who outnumber the Levites,
46καὶ τὰ λύτρα τριῶν καὶ ἑβδομήκοντα καὶ διακοσίων, οἱ πλεονάζοντες παρὰ τοὺς Λευίτας ἀπὸ τῶν πρωτοτόκων τῶν υἱῶν Ἰσραήλ,
47you are to collect five shekels for each one, according to the sanctuary shekel of twenty gerahs.
47καὶ λήψῃ πέντε σίκλους κατὰ κεφαλήν, κατὰ τὸ δίδραχμον τὸ ἅγιον λήψῃ, εἴκοσιν ὀβολοὺς τοῦ σίκλου,
48Give the money to Aaron and his sons as the redemption price for the excess among the Israelites.”
48καὶ δώσεις τὸ ἀργύριον Ἀαρὼν καὶ τοῖς υἱοῖς αὐτοῦ, λύτρα τῶν πλεοναζόντων ἐν αὐτοῖς.
49So Moses collected the redemption money from those in excess of the number redeemed by the Levites.
49καὶ ἔλαβε Μωυσῆς τὸ ἀργύριον τὰ λύτρα τῶν πλεοναζόντων εἰς τὴν ἐκλύτρωσιν τῶν Λευιτῶν,
50He collected the money from the firstborn of the Israelites: 1,365 shekels, according to the sanctuary shekel.
50παρὰ τῶν πρωτοτόκων τῶν υἱῶν Ἰσραὴλ ἔλαβε τὸ ἀργύριον, χιλίους τριακοσίους ἑξηκονταπέντε σίκλους, κατὰ τὸν σίκλον τὸν ἅγιον.
51And Moses gave the redemption money to Aaron and his sons in obedience to the word of the LORD, just as the LORD had commanded him.
51καὶ ἔδωκε Μωυσῆς τὰ λύτρα τῶν πλεοναζόντων Ἀαρὼν καὶ τοῖς υἱοῖς αὐτοῦ, διὰ φωνῆς Κυρίου, ὃν τρόπον συνέταξε Κύριος τῷ Μωυσῇ.
