Numbers 8:15-17
1599 Geneva Bible
15 And afterward shall the Levites go in, to serve in the Tabernacle of the Congregation, and thou shalt purify them, and offer them as a shake offering.
16 For they are freely given (A)unto me from among the children of Israel, for [a]such as open any womb: for all the firstborn of the children of Israel have I taken them unto me.
17 (B)For all the firstborn of the children of Israel are mine, both of man and beast: since the day that I smote every firstborn in the land of Egypt, I sanctified them for myself.
