Leviticus 10

1 Nadab and Abihu, for offering of strange fire, are burnt by fire. 6 Aaron and his sons are forbidden to mourn for them. 8 The priests are forbidden wine when they are to go into the Tabernacle. 12 The law of eating the holy things. 16 Aaron's excuse for transgressing thereof.

 10:1 Now Nadab 5070 and Abihu 30, the sons 1121 of Aaron 175, took 3947 their respective 376 firepans 4289, and after putting 5414 fire 784 in them, placed 7760 incense 7004 on it and offered 7126 strange 2114a fire 784 before 6440 the LORD 3068, which 834 He had not commanded 6680 them.

 10:2 And fire 784 came 3318 out from the presence 6440 of the LORD 3068 and consumed 398 them, and they died 4191 before 6440 the LORD 3068.

 10:3 Then Moses 4872 said 559 to Aaron 175, “It is what 834 the LORD 3068 spoke 1696, saying 559, ‘By those who come 7126 near 7138 Me I will be treated 6942 as holy 6942, And before 5921 6440 all 3605 the people 5971a I will be honored 3513.’” So Aaron 175, therefore, kept 1826a silent 1826a.

 10:4 ¶ Moses 4872 called 7121 also to Mishael 4332 and Elzaphan 469, the sons 1121 of Aaron’s 175 uncle 1730 Uzziel 5816, and said 559 to them, “Come 7126 forward 7126, carry 5375 your relatives 251 away 5375 from the front 6440 of the sanctuary 6944 to the outside 4480 2351 of the camp 4264.”

 10:5 So they came 7126 forward 7126 and carried 5375 them still in their tunics 3801 to the outside 4480 2351 of the camp 4264, as Moses 4872 had said 1696.

 10:6 Then Moses 4872 said 559 to Aaron 175 and to his sons 1121 Eleazar 499 and Ithamar 385, “Do not uncover 6544a your heads 7218 nor 3808 tear 6533 your clothes 899b, so that you will not die 4191 and that He will not become 7107 wrathful 7107 against 5921 all 3605 the congregation 5712. But your kinsmen 251, the whole 3605 house 1004 of Israel 3478, shall bewail 1058 the burning 8316 which 834 the LORD 3068 has brought 8313 about.

 10:7 “You shall not even go 3318 out from the doorway 6607 of the tent 168 of meeting 4150, or 6435 you will die 4191; for the LORD’S 3068 anointing 4888b oil 8081 is upon you.” So they did 6213a according to the word 1697 of Moses 4872.

 10:8 ¶ The LORD 3068 then spoke 1696 to Aaron 175, saying 559,

 10:9 “Do not drink 7941 wine 3196 or strong 7941 drink 8354, neither you nor 408 your sons 1121 with you, when you come 935 into the tent 168 of meeting 4150, so that you will not die 4191—it is a perpetual 5769 statute 2708 throughout your generations 1755—

 10:10 and so as to make 914 a distinction 914 between 996 the holy 6944 and the profane 2455, and between 996 the unclean 2931 and the clean 2889,

 10:11 and so as to teach 3384 the sons 1121 of Israel 3478 all 3605 the statutes 2706 which 834 the LORD 3068 has spoken 1696 to them through 3027 Moses 4872.”

 10:12 ¶ Then Moses 4872 spoke 1696 to Aaron 175, and to his surviving 3498 sons 1121, Eleazar 499 and Ithamar 385, “Take 3947 the grain offering 4503 that is left 3498 over 3498 from the LORD’S 3068 offerings 801 by fire 801 and eat 398 it unleavened 4682 beside 681a the altar 4196, for it is most 6944 holy 6944.

 10:13 “You shall eat 398 it, moreover, in a holy 6918 place 4725, because 3588 it is your due 2706 and your sons’ 1121 due 2706 out of the LORD’S 3068 offerings 801 by fire 801; for thus 3651 I have been commanded 6680.

 10:14 “The breast 2373 of the wave 8573 offering 8573, however, and the thigh 7785 of the offering 8641 you may eat 398 in a clean 2889 place 4725, you and your sons 1121 and your daughters 1323 with you; for they have been given 5414 as your due 2706 and your sons’ 1121 due 2706 out of the sacrifices 2077 of the peace 8002 offerings 8002 of the sons 1121 of Israel 3478.

 10:15 “The thigh 7785 offered 8641 by lifting 8641 up and the breast 2373 offered 8573 by waving 8573 they shall bring 935 along 5921 with the offerings 801 by fire 801 of the portions 2459 of fat 2459, to present 5130 as a wave 8573 offering 8573 before 6440 the LORD 3068; so it shall be a thing 2706 perpetually 5769 due 2706 you and your sons 1121 with you, just 3512c as the LORD 3068 has commanded 6680.”

 10:16 ¶ But Moses 4872 searched 1875 carefully 1875 for the goat 5795 of the sin 2403b offering 2403b, and behold 2009, it had been burned 8313 up! So he was angry 7107 with Aaron’s 175 surviving 3498 sons 1121 Eleazar 499 and Ithamar 385, saying 559,

 10:17 “Why 4069 did you not eat 398 the sin 2403b offering 2403b at the holy 6944 place 4725? For it is most 6944 holy 6944, and He gave 5414 it to you to bear 5375 away the guilt 5771 of the congregation 5712, to make 3722a atonement 3722a for them before 6440 the LORD 3068.

 10:18 “Behold 2005, since its blood 1818 had not been brought 935 inside 6441, into the sanctuary 6944, you should certainly 398 have eaten 398 it in the sanctuary 6944, just 3512c as I commanded 6680.”

 10:19 But Aaron 175 spoke 1696 to Moses 4872, “Behold 2005, this very day 3117 they presented 7126 their sin 2403b offering 2403b and their burnt 5930a offering 5930a before 6440 the LORD 3068. When things like these 428 happened 7122 to me, if I had eaten 398 a sin 2403b offering 2403b today 3117, would it have been good 3190 in the sight 5869 of the LORD 3068?”

 10:20 When Moses 4872 heard 8085 [that], it seemed 3190 good 3190 in his sight 5869.
