Numbers 8:17-19
New International Version
17 Every firstborn male in Israel, whether human or animal,(A) is mine. When I struck down all the firstborn in Egypt, I set them apart for myself.(B) 18 And I have taken the Levites in place of all the firstborn sons in Israel.(C) 19 From among all the Israelites, I have given the Levites as gifts to Aaron and his sons(D) to do the work at the tent of meeting on behalf of the Israelites(E) and to make atonement for them(F) so that no plague will strike the Israelites when they go near the sanctuary.”
