Numbers 8:1-8 King James 2000 (KJ2000)

1. And the LORD spoke unto Moses, saying,

2. Speak unto Aaron, and say unto him, When you light the lamps, the seven lamps shall give light in front of the lampstand.

3. And Aaron did so; he lighted the lamps thereof in front of the lampstand, as the LORD commanded Moses.

4. And this work of the lampstand was of hammered gold, its shaft and its flowers were hammered work: according unto the pattern which the LORD had shown Moses, so he made the lampstand.

5. And the LORD spoke unto Moses, saying,

6. Take the Levites from among the children of Israel, and cleanse them.

7. And thus shall you do unto them, to cleanse them: Sprinkle water of purifying upon them, and let them shave all their flesh, and let them wash their clothes, and so make themselves clean.

8. Then let them take a young bullock with its grain offering, even fine flour mixed with oil, and another young bullock shall you take for a sin offering.
