Numbers 3:1-4

Priests and Levites

^aNow these are the generations of Aaron and Moses at the time when Yahweh spoke with Moses on Mount Sinai. 2 ^aThese then are the names of the sons of Aaron: Nadab the firstborn, and Abihu, Eleazar and Ithamar. 3 These are the names of the sons of Aaron, the ^aanointed priests, whom he ¹ordained to minister as priests. 4 ^aBut Nadab and Abihu died before Yahweh when they offered strange fire before Yahweh in the wilderness of Sinai; and they had no children. So Eleazar and Ithamar ministered as priests ¹in the lifetime of their father Aaron.
