Numbers 8:3-8 New American Standard Bible (NASB)

3. Aaron therefore did so; he mounted its lamps at the front of the lampstand, just as the Lord had commanded Moses.

4. Now this was the workmanship of the lampstand, hammered work of gold; from its base to its flowers it was hammered work; according to the pattern which the Lord had shown Moses, so he made the lampstand.

5. Again the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,

6. "Take the Levites from among the sons of Israel and cleanse them.

7. Thus you shall do to them, for their cleansing: sprinkle purifying water on them, and let them use a razor over their whole body and wash their clothes, and they will be clean.

8. Then let them take a bull with its grain offering, fine flour mixed with oil; and a second bull you shall take for a sin offering.
