Numbers 8:1-8 Amplified Bible (AMP)

1. AND THE Lord said to Moses,

2. Say to Aaron, When you set up and light the lamps, the seven lamps shall be made to give light in front of the lampstand.

3. And Aaron did so; he lighted the lamps of the lampstand to give light in front of it, as the Lord commanded Moses.

4. And this was the workmanship of the candlestick: beaten or turned gold, beaten work [of gold] from its base to its flowers; according to the pattern which the Lord had shown Moses, so he made the lampstand.

5. And the Lord said to Moses,

6. Take the Levites from among the Israelites and cleanse them.

7. And thus you shall do to them to cleanse them: sprinkle the water of purification [water to be used in case of sin] upon them, and let them pass a razor over all their flesh and wash their clothes and cleanse themselves. [Num. 19:17, 18.]

8. Then let them take a young bull and its cereal offering of fine flour mixed with oil, and another young bull you shall take for a sin offering.
