| 2 | Speak unto Aaron and say unto him, When thou lightest the lamps, the seven lamps shall give light over against the candlestick. | « Parle à Aaron et tu lui diras : Lorsque tu placeras les lampes sur le chandelier, c’est sur le devant du chandelier que les sept lampes donneront leur lumière. » | Speak unto Aaron, and say unto him, When thou lightest the lamps, the seven lamps shall give light in front of the candlestick. |

| 4 | And this work of the candlestick was of beaten gold, unto the shaft thereof, unto the flowers thereof, was beaten work: according unto the pattern which the LORD had shewed Moses, so he made the candlestick. | Le chandelier était fait d’or battu ; jusqu’à son pied, jusqu’à ces fleurs, il était d’or battu ; Moïse l’avait fait selon le modèle que Yahweh lui avait montré. | And this was the work of the candlestick, beaten work of gold; unto the base thereof, [and] unto the flowers thereof, it was beaten work: according unto the pattern which Jehovah had showed Moses, so he made the candlestick. |

| 8 | Then let them take a young bullock with his meat offering, even fine flour mingled with oil, and another young bullock shalt thou take for a sin offering. | Ils prendront ensuite un jeune taureau pour l’holocauste, avec son oblation de fleur de farine pétrie à l’huile ; et tu prendras un second jeune taureau pour le sacrifice pour le péché. | Then let them take a young bullock, and its meal-offering, fine flour mingled with oil; and another young bullock shalt thou take for a sin-offering. |

| 11 | And Aaron shall offer the Levites before the LORD for an offering of the children of Israel, that they may execute the service of the LORD. | Aaron offrira les Lévites en offrande balancée devant Yahweh, de la part des enfants d’Israël, afin qu’ils soient pour faire le service de Yahweh. | and Aaron shall offer the Levites before Jehovah for a wave-offering, on the behalf of the children of Israel, that it may be theirs to do the service of Jehovah. |
| 12 | And the Levites shall lay their hands upon the heads of the bullocks: and thou shalt offer the one for a sin offering, and the other for a burnt offering, unto the LORD, to make an atonement for the Levites. | Les Lévites poseront leurs mains sur la tête des taureaux, et tu offriras l’un en sacrifice pour le péché, l’autre en holocauste à Yahweh, afin de faire l’expiation pour les Lévites. | And the Levites shall lay their hands upon the heads of the bullocks: and offer thou the one for a sin-offering, and the other for a burnt-offering, unto Jehovah, to make atonement for the Levites. |

C’est ainsi que tu les purifieras et que tu les offriras en offrande balancée. | And after that shall the Levites go in to do the service of the tent of meeting: and thou shalt cleanse them, and offer them for a wave-offering. |
| 16 | For they are wholly given unto me from among the children of Israel; instead of such as open every womb, even instead of the firstborn of all the children of Israel, have I taken them unto me. | Car ils me sont entièrement donnés du milieu des enfants d’Israël ; je les ai pris pour moi à la place de tout premier-né, ouvrant le sein de sa mère, de tout premier-né des enfants d’Israël. | For they are wholly given unto me from among the children of Israel; instead of all that openeth the womb, even the first-born of all the children of Israel, have I taken them unto me. |

| 24 | This is it that belongeth unto the Levites: from twenty and five years old and upward they shall go in to wait upon the service of the tabernacle of the congregation: | « Voici ce qui concerne les Lévites. A partir de vingt-cinq ans et au-dessus, le Lévite entrera au service de la tente de réunion pour y exercer une fonction. | This is that which belongeth unto the Levites: from twenty and five years old and upward they shall go in to wait upon the service in the work of the tent of meeting: |

| 26 | But shall minister with their brethren in the tabernacle of the congregation, to keep the charge, and shall do no service. Thus shalt thou do unto the Levites touching their charge. | il aidera ses frères, dans la tente de réunion, à garder ce qui doit être observé ; mais il ne fera plus de service. Tu agiras ainsi à l’égard des Lévites au sujet de leurs fonctions. » | but shall minister with their brethren in the tent of meeting, to keep the charge, and shall do no service. Thus shalt thou do unto the Levites touching their charges. |
