Numbers 3:5-10
Lexham English Bible
5 Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying, 6 “Bring near the tribe of Levi, and set the tribe[a] before Aaron[b] the priest, and they will minister to him. 7 They shall observe his duties and the duties of the entire community before the tent of assembly, to do the work of the tabernacle. 8 And they will keep all the vessels of the tent of assembly and the responsibilities of the Israelites,[c] to do the work[d] of the tabernacle. 9 You will give the Levites to Aaron and to his descendants; they are surely assigned to him from among the Israelites.[e] 10 But you will count Aaron and his descendants; they will keep their priesthood, and the stranger[f] who approaches will be put to death.”

New King James Version
The Levites Serve in the Tabernacle
5 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying: 6 (A)“Bring the tribe of Levi near, and present them before Aaron the priest, that they may serve him. 7 And they shall attend to his needs and the needs of the whole congregation before the tabernacle of meeting, to do (B)the work of the tabernacle. 8 Also they shall attend to all the furnishings of the tabernacle of meeting, and to the needs of the children of Israel, to do the work of the tabernacle. 9 And (C)you shall give the Levites to Aaron and his sons; they are given entirely to [a]him from among the children of Israel. 10 So you shall appoint Aaron and his sons, (D)and they shall attend to their priesthood; (E)but the outsider who comes near shall be put to death.”
