Then David divided the Levites into divisions named after the clans descended from the three sons of Levi — Gershon, Kohath, and Merari. The Gershonites
The sons of Amram were Aaron and Moses. Aaron and his descendants were set apart to dedicate the most holy things, to offer sacrifices in the LORD’s presence, to serve the LORD, and to pronounce blessings in his name forever.
Сыновья Амрама: Аарон и Моисей. Аарон был отделен, чтобы освящать самую святую утварь (он сам и его сыновья навеки), приносить жертвы Господу, совершать перед Ним служение и всегда благословлять Его именем.
These were the descendants of Levi by clans, the leaders of their family groups, registered carefully by name. Each had to be twenty years old or older to qualify for service in the house of the LORD.
Это потомки Левия по их семействам, то есть главы семейств, которые были внесены в родословия поименно и перечислены по отдельности — мужчины от двадцати лет и старше, которые несли службу в доме Господа.
The work of the Levites was to assist the priests, the descendants of Aaron, as they served at the house of the LORD. They also took care of the courtyards and side rooms, helped perform the ceremonies of purification, and served in many other ways in the house of God.
Теперь левиты должны были помогать потомкам Аарона в службах Господнего дома: следить за дворами и комнатами, очищением всей священной утвари и исполнять другие обязанности при Божьем доме.
They were in charge of the sacred bread that was set out on the table, the choice flour for the grain offerings, the wafers made without yeast, the cakes cooked in olive oil, and the other mixed breads. They were also responsible to check all the weights and measures.
Они заботились о священном хлебе, о лучшей муке для хлебных приношений, о пресных коржах, о выпечке для приношения, о приношении, которое смешивается с маслом, и обо всех мерах объема и веса.
They assisted with the burnt offerings that were presented to the LORD on Sabbath days, at new moon celebrations, and at all the appointed festivals. The required number of Levites served in the LORD’s presence at all times, following all the procedures they had been given.
и всякий раз, когда в субботы, праздники Новолуния и в установленные праздники Господу приносилась жертва всесожжения. Они должны были служить Господу постоянно в надлежащем количестве и так, как для них предписано.
And so, under the supervision of the priests, the Levites watched over the Tabernacle and the Templec and faithfully carried out their duties of service at the house of the LORD.
