Numbers 8:20-26 The Scriptures 1998 (ISR98)

20. Thus Mosheh and Aharon and all the congregation of the children of Yisra’ĕl did to the Lĕwites according to all that יהוה commanded Mosheh concerning the Lĕwites, so the children of Yisra’ĕl did to them.

21. And the Lĕwites cleansed themselves and washed their garments, and Aharon waved them, a wave offering before יהוה, and Aharon made atonement for them to cleanse them.

22. Then after that the Lĕwites went in to do their service in the Tent of Meeting before Aharon and his sons as יהוה commanded Mosheh concerning the Lĕwites, so they did to them.

23. And יהוה spoke to Mosheh, saying,

24. “This applies to the Lĕwites: From twenty-five years old and above let him come into active service in the service of the Tent of Meeting,

25. and at the age of fifty years they retire from active service of the service, and serve no more,

26. but they shall attend with their brothers in the Tent of Meeting, to guard the duty, but shall do no service. Thus you shall do to the Lĕwites regarding their duties.”
