Leviticus 10:5-12 New English Translation (NET)

5. So they came near and carried them away in their tunics to a place outside the camp just as Moses had spoken.

6. Then Moses said to Aaron and to Eleazar and Ithamar his other two sons, “Do not dishevel the hair of your heads and do not tear your garments, so that you do not die and so that wrath does not come on the whole congregation. Your brothers, all the house of Israel, are to mourn the burning which the Lord has caused,

7. but you must not go out from the entrance of the Meeting Tent lest you die, for the Lord’s anointing oil is on you.” So they acted according to the word of Moses.

8. Then the Lord spoke to Aaron,

9. “Do not drink wine or strong drink, you and your sons with you, when you enter into the Meeting Tent, so that you do not die, which is a perpetual statute throughout your generations,

10. as well as to distinguish between the holy and the common, and between the unclean and the clean,

11. and to teach the Israelites all the statutes that the Lord has spoken to them through Moses.”

12. Then Moses spoke to Aaron and to Eleazar and Ithamar, his remaining sons, “Take the grain offering which remains from the gifts of the Lord and eat it unleavened beside the altar, for it is most holy.
