وَهَذِهِ تَوَالِيدُ هَارُونَ وَمُوسَى يَوْمَ كَلَّمَ ٱلرَّبُّ مُوسَى فِي جَبَلِ سِينَاءَ. ١ 1
This is the account concerning Aaron and Moses when the Lord spoke to Moses on Mount Sinai.
وَهَذِهِ أَسْمَاءُ بَنِي هَارُونَ: نَادَابُ ٱلْبِكْرُ، وَأَبِيهُو وَأَلِعَازَارُ وَإِيثَامَارُ. ٢ 2
The names of the sons of Aaron were: Nadab (firstborn), Abihu, Eleazar, and Ithamar.
هَذِهِ أَسْمَاءُ بَنِي هَارُونَ ٱلْكَهَنَةِ ٱلْمَمْسُوحِينَ ٱلَّذِينَ مَلَأَ أَيْدِيَهُمْ لِلْكَهَانَةِ. ٣ 3
These were the names of Aaron's sons who were anointed and ordained to serve as priests.
وَلَكِنْ مَاتَ نَادَابُ وَأَبِيهُو أَمَامَ ٱلرَّبِّ عِنْدَمَا قَرَّبَا نَارًا غَرِيبَةً أَمَامَ ٱلرَّبِّ فِي بَرِّيَّةِ سِينَاءَ، وَلَمْ يَكُنْ لَهُمَا بَنُونَ. وَأَمَّا أَلِعَازَارُ وَإِيثَامَارُ فَكَهَنَا أَمَامَ هَارُونَ أَبِيهِمَا. ٤ 4
Nadab and Abihu died in the Lord's presence when they offered forbidden fire before the Lord in the Sinai desert. Since they didn't have any sons, Eleazar and Ithamar served as priests while their father Aaron was alive.
وَكَلَّمَ ٱلرَّبُّ مُوسَى قَائِلًا: ٥ 5
The Lord told Moses,
«قَدِّمْ سِبْطَ لَاوِي وَأَوْقِفْهُمْ قُدَّامَ هَارُونَ ٱلْكَاهِنِ وَلْيَخْدِمُوهُ. ٦ 6
“Gather the tribe of Levi together and present them to Aaron the priest to help him with the ministry.
فَيَحْفَظُونَ شَعَائِرَهُ وَشَعَائِرَ كُلِّ ٱلْجَمَاعَةِ قُدَّامَ خَيْمَةِ ٱلِٱجْتِمَاعِ، وَيَخْدِمُونَ خِدْمَةَ ٱلْمَسْكَنِ، ٧ 7
They are to carry out duties on his behalf and for all the Israelites at the Tent of Meeting, looking after the service of the Tabernacle.
فَيَحْرُسُونَ كُلَّ أَمْتِعَةِ خَيْمَةِ ٱلِٱجْتِمَاعِ، وَحِرَاسَةِ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ وَيَخْدِمُونَ خِدْمَةَ ٱلْمَسْكَنِ. ٨ 8
They are responsible for caring for all the furniture of the Tent of Meeting, serving the Israelites through what they do in the Tabernacle.
فَتُعْطِي ٱللَّاوِيِّينَ لِهَارُونَ وَلِبَنِيهِ. إِنَّهُمْ مَوْهُوبُونَ لَهُ هِبَةً مِنْ عِنْدِ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ. ٩ 9
The Levites are to work exclusively for Aaron and his sons of because this is their assignment among the Israelites.
وَتُوَكِّلُ هَارُونَ وَبَنِيهِ فَيَحْرُسُونَ كَهَنُوتَهُمْ، وَٱلْأَجْنَبِيُّ ٱلَّذِي يَقْتَرِبُ يُقْتَلُ». ١٠ 10
You are to appoint Aaron and his sons to have the responsibility of the priesthood. Anyone else who tries to act as a priest must be executed.”
وَكَلَّمَ ٱلرَّبُّ مُوسَى قَائِلًا: ١١ 11
The Lord told Moses,
«وَهَا إِنِّي قَدْ أَخَذْتُ ٱللَّاوِيِّينَ مِنْ بَيْنِ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ، بَدَلَ كُلِّ بِكْرٍ فَاتِحِ رَحِمٍ مِنْ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ فَيَكُونُ ٱللَّاوِيُّونَ لِي. ١٢ 12
“I've taken the Levites from the Israelites in place of every one of their firstborn. The Levites belong to me
لِأَنَّ لِي كُلَّ بِكْرٍ. يَوْمَ ضَرَبْتُ كُلَّ بِكْرٍ فِي أَرْضِ مِصْرَ قَدَّسْتُ لِي كُلَّ بِكْرٍ فِي إِسْرَائِيلَ مِنَ ٱلنَّاسِ وَٱلْبَهَائِمِ. لِي يَكُونُونَ. أَنَا ٱلرَّبُّ». ١٣ 13
because all the firstborn are mine. When I killed every firstborn in Egypt I set apart as holy to me all the firstborn of Israel, human and animal. They are mine. I am the Lord.”
وَكَلَّمَ ٱلرَّبُّ مُوسَى فِي بَرِّيَّةِ سِينَاءَ قَائِلًا: ١٤ 14
The Lord spoke to Moses in the Sinai desert. He told him,
«عُدَّ بَنِي لَاوِي حَسَبَ بُيُوتِ آبَائِهِمْ وَعَشَائِرِهِمْ. كُلَّ ذَكَرٍ مِنِ ٱبْنِ شَهْرٍ فَصَاعِدًا تَعُدُّهُمْ». ١٥ 15
“Register the Levites by their father's line and family. Count every male aged one month or older.”
فَعَدَّهُمْ مُوسَى حَسَبَ قَوْلِ ٱلرَّبِّ كَمَا أُمِرَ. ١٦ 16
So Moses registered them following the Lord's instructions, just as he had been told.
وَكَانَ هَؤُلَاءِ بَنِي لَاوِي بِأَسْمَائِهِمْ: جَرْشُونُ وَقَهَاتُ وَمَرَارِي. ١٧ 17
These were the names of Levi's sons: Gershon, Kohath, and Merari.
وَهَذَانِ ٱسْمَا ٱبْنَيْ جَرْشُونَ حَسَبَ عَشَائِرِهِمَا: لِبْنِي وَشِمْعِي. ١٨ 18
These were the names of the Gershon's sons by family: Libni and Shimei.
وَبَنُو قَهَاتَ حَسَبَ عَشَائِرِهِمْ: عَمْرَامُ وَيِصْهَارُ وَحَبْرُونُ وَعُزِّيئِيلُ. ١٩ 19
Kohath's sons by family were Amram, Izhar, Hebron, and Uzziel.
وَٱبْنَا مَرَارِي حَسَبَ عَشَائِرِهِمَا: مَحْلِي وَمُوشِي. هَذِهِ هِيَ عَشَائِرُ ٱللَّاوِيِّينَ حَسَبَ بُيُوتِ آبَائِهِمْ. ٢٠ 20
Merari's sons by family were Mahli and Mushi. These were the families of the Levites, according to their father's line.
لِجَرْشُونَ عَشِيرَةُ ٱللِّبْنِيِّينَ وَعَشِيرَةُ ٱلشِّمْعِيِّينَ. هَذِهِ هِيَ عَشَائِرُ ٱلْجَرْشُونِيِّينَ. ٢١ 21

The total of all males aged one month or older was 7,500.
عَشَائِرُ ٱلْجَرْشُونِيِّينَ يَنْزِلُونَ وَرَاءَ ٱلْمَسْكَنِ إِلَى ٱلْغَرْبِ، ٢٣ 23
The camp of families of Gerson was to the west, behind the Tabernacle.

The leader of the Gershon families was Eliasaph, son of Lael.

The Lord told Moses, “Conduct a census of all the firstborn Israelite males aged one month or older, and register their names.
فَتَأْخُذُ ٱللَّاوِيِّينَ لِي. أَنَا ٱلرَّبُّ. بَدَلَ كُلِّ بِكْرٍ فِي بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ. وَبَهَائِمَ ٱللَّاوِيِّينَ بَدَلَ كُلِّ بِكْرٍ فِي بَهَائِمِ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ». ٤١ 41
Assign the Levites to me. I am the Lord. They are in place of all of the Israelites' firstborn children. The livestock of the Levites are in place of all the Israelites' firstborn livestock.”
فَعَدَّ مُوسَى كَمَا أَمَرَهُ ٱلرَّبُّ كُلَّ بِكْرٍ فِي بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ. ٤٢ 42
Moses conducted a census of all the firstborn of the Israelites, as the Lord had instructed him.
فَكَانَ جَمِيعُ ٱلْأَبْكَارِ ٱلذُّكُورِ بِعَدَدِ ٱلْأَسْمَاءِ مِنِ ٱبْنِ شَهْرٍ فَصَاعِدًا، ٱلْمَعْدُودِينَ مِنْهُمُ ٱثْنَيْنِ وَعِشْرِينَ أَلْفًا وَمِئَتَيْنِ وَثَلَاثَةً وَسَبْعِينَ. ٤٣ 43

«خُذِ ٱللَّاوِيِّينَ بَدَلَ كُلِّ بِكْرٍ فِي بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ، وَبَهَائِمَ ٱللَّاوِيِّينَ بَدَلَ بَهَائِمِهِمْ، فَيَكُونَ لِيَ ٱللَّاوِيُّونَ. أَنَا ٱلرَّبُّ. ٤٥ 45
“You are to take the Levites in place of all the firstborn children of Israel, and the livestock of the Levites in place of their livestock, because the Levites belong to me. I am the Lord.
وَأَمَّا فِدَاءُ ٱلْمِئَتَيْنِ وَٱلثَّلَاثَةِ وَٱلسَّبْعِينَ ٱلزَّائِدِينَ عَلَى ٱللَّاوِيِّينَ مِنْ أَبْكَارِ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ، ٤٦ 46

collect five shekels for each of them, (using the sanctuary shekel standard of twenty gerahs).
وَتُعْطِي ٱلْفِضَّةَ لِهَارُونَ وَبَنِيهِ فِدَاءَ ٱلزَّائِدِينَ عَلَيْهِمْ». ٤٨ 48
He handed the money over to Aaron and his sons as the redemption price for the extra Israelites.”
فَأَخَذَ مُوسَى فِضَّةَ فِدَائِهِمْ مِنَ ٱلزَّائِدِينَ عَلَى فِدَاءِ ٱللَّاوِيِّينَ. ٤٩ 49
Moses collected the redemption money for those extra Israelites that were more than the number redeemed by the Levites.
مِنْ أَبْكَارِ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ أَخَذَ ٱلْفِضَّةَ أَلْفًا وَثَلَاثَ مِئَةٍ وَخَمْسَةً وَسِتِّينَ عَلَى شَاقِلِ ٱلْقُدْسِ، ٥٠ 50
He collected the money given on behalf of the Israelites' firstborn children. It came to 1,365 shekels, (using the sanctuary shekel standard).
وَأَعْطَى مُوسَى فِضَّةَ ٱلْفِدَاءِ لِهَارُونَ وَبَنِيهِ حَسَبَ قَوْلِ ٱلرَّبِّ، كَمَا أَمَرَ ٱلرَّبُّ مُوسَى. ٥١ 51
Moses gave this redemption money to Aaron and his sons as the Lord had told him to, following the Lord's instructions.
