Herren sa til Moses: «Kom til Meg med Levis stamme. Still dem framfor Aron så de kan gjøre prestetjeneste for ham.» De skal utføre arbeidet i tabernakelet og ha ansvar for alt det som Aron og hele forsamlingen skal gjøre foran åpenbaringsteltet. De skal også ha ansvar for hele innredningen i åpenbaringsteltet. De skal utføre det arbeidet som Israels folk har ansvar for i tabernakelet. Du skal gi levittene til Aron og sønnene hans – de skal velges ut blant Israels folk til å være fullstendig overgitt til ham. Så skal du innsette Aron og sønnene hans til å ta vare på prestetjenesten sin. Dersom en kommer inn i det helliges nærhet uten å være innvidd, skal han dø.»
