Numbers 18:4-6
The Voice
3-5 Those Levites will answer to you and help out with the tent as a whole, but they absolutely may not touch the vessels of the sacred place or approach its altar. If they do, they and you will die. Also, an outsider may not approach you. This way, the whole congregation will be forever spared My destructive fury. 6 So I hereby appoint, as your assistants, your fellow Levites out of all of the Israelites. I give them to you as persons set apart for Me to do what is necessary for the maintenance of this congregation tent.
Numbers 18:4-6
New International Version
4 They are to join you and be responsible for the care of the tent of meeting—all the work at the tent—and no one else may come near where you are.(A)
5 “You are to be responsible for the care of the sanctuary and the altar,(B) so that my wrath will not fall on the Israelites again. 6 I myself have selected your fellow Levites from among the Israelites as a gift to you,(C) dedicated to the Lord to do the work at the tent of meeting.(D)
