Numbers 8:23-26
Evangelical Heritage Version
23 The Lord spoke to Moses: 24 “This applies to the Levites: From twenty-five years of age and up, they are to serve in the work at the Tent of Meeting. 25 But when they are fifty years old, they are to retire from the service and no longer work. 26 They may assist their brothers at the Tent of Meeting in performing their duties, but they are not to do the work. This is exactly what you are to do in regard to the Levites and their duties.”

Lexham English Bible
23 Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying, 24 “This is what is for the Levites: those twenty-five years old[a] and above will[b] come to help with the service in the work of the tent of assembly; 25 and those fifty years old[c] will[d] return from the service of the work and will serve no longer. 26 They[e] can attend[f] their brothers in the tent of assembly to keep their responsibilities, but they[g] will not do work. This is what you will do concerning the Levities and their responsibilities.”
