Lev 10:2 And fire came out from יהוה and consumed them, and they died
.יהוה before
Lev 10:3 Then Mosheh said to Aharon, “This is what יהוה spoke, saying, ‘By
those who come near Me let Me be set-apart! And before all the people let
Me be esteemed!’ ” And Aharon was silent.
Lev 10:4 And Mosheh called to Misha’ĕl and to Eltsaphan, the sons of
Uzzi’ĕl the uncle of Aharon, and said to them, “Come near, take your brothers
from before the set-apart place out of the camp.”
Lev 10:5 So they came near and took them by their long shirts out of the
camp, as Mosheh had said.
Lev 10:6 And Mosheh said to Aharon, and to El‛azar and to Ithamar, his
sons, “Do not unbind your heads nor tear your garments, lest you die, and
wrath come upon all the people. But let your brothers, all the house of
Yisra’ĕl, bewail the burning which יהוה has kindled.
Lev 10:7 “And do not go out from the door of the Tent of Meeting, lest you
die, for the anointing oil of יהוה is upon you.” And they did according to the
word of Mosheh.
Lev 10:8 And יהוה spoke to Aharon, saying,
Lev 10:9 “Do not drink wine or strong drink, you, nor your sons with you,
when you go into the Tent of Meeting, lest you die – a law forever throughout
your generations,
Lev 10:10 so as to make a distinction between the set-apart and the profane,
and between the unclean and the clean,
Lev 10:11 and to teach the children of Yisra’ĕl all the laws which יהוה has
spoken to them by the hand of Mosheh.”
Lev 10:12 And Mosheh spoke to Aharon, and to El‛azar and Ithamar, his
sons who were left, “Take the grain offering that is left over from the
offerings made by fire to יהוה, and eat it without leaven beside the altar, for it
is most set-apart.
Lev 10:13 “And you shall eat it in a set-apart place, because it is yours by
law and your sons’ by law, of the offerings made by fire to יהוה, for so I have
been commanded.
Lev 10:14 “And the breast of the wave offering and the thigh of the
contribution you eat in a clean place, you, and your sons, and your daughters
with you. For they are yours by law and your sons’ by law, which are given
from the slaughterings of peace offerings of the children of Yisra’ĕl.
Lev 10:15 “The thigh of the contribution and the breast of the wave offering
they bring with the offerings of fat made by fire, to bring as a wave offering
before יהוה. And it shall be yours and your sons’ with you, by a law forever,
as יהוה has commanded.”
Lev 10:16 And Mosheh diligently looked for the goat of the sin offering and
saw it was burned up. And he was wroth with El‛azar and Ithamar, the sons
of Aharon who were left, saying,
Lev 10:17 “Why have you not eaten the sin offering in a set-apart place,
since it is most set-apart, and Elohim has given it to you to bear the
crookedness of the congregation, to make atonement for them before יהוה ?
Lev 10:18 “See, its blood was not brought inside the set-apart place. You
should have eaten it without fail in a set-apart place, as I have commanded.”
Lev 10:19 And Aharon said to Mosheh, “See, today they have brought their
sin offering and their burnt offering before יהוה, and matters like these have
come to me! If I had eaten the sin offering today, would it have been right in
the eyes of יהוה ?”
Lev 10:20 And when Mosheh heard that, it was good in his eyes.
