Deuteronomy 10:6-11

Holman Christian Standard Bible

⁶ The Israelites traveled from Beeroth Bene-jaakan^[a] to Moserah. Aaron died and was buried there, and Eleazar his son became priest in his place.^{(A) 7} They traveled from there to Gudgodah, and from Gudgodah to Jotbathah, a land with streams of water.^(B)

⁸ “At that time the Lord set apart the tribe of Levi^(C) to carry the ark of the Lord’s covenant, to stand before Yahweh to serve Him, and to pronounce blessings in His name, as it is today. ⁹ For this reason, Levi does not have a portion or inheritance like his brothers; the Lord is his inheritance, as the Lord your God told him.^(D)

¹⁰ “I stayed on the mountain 40 days and 40 nights like the first time. The Lord also listened to me on this occasion;^(E) He agreed not to annihilate you. ¹¹ Then the Lord said to me, ‘Get up. Continue your journey ahead of the people, so that they may enter and possess the land I swore to give their fathers.’^(F)
