-
"And
Aaron shall offer the Levites before YHVH for an
offering of the children of Israel,
that they may execute the service of YHVH. 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 YHVH,
to make an atonement for the Levites.
And thou shalt set
the Levites before Aaron, and before his sons, and offer
them for an offering unto YHVH.
Thus shalt thou separate the Levites from among the
children of Israel: and the Levites shall be mine."

Num. 8:19-21
-
"And I have given the Levites as
a gift to Aaron and to his sons from among the children
of Israel, to do the service of the children of Israel
in the tabernacle of the congregation, and to make an
atonement for the children of Israel: that there be no
plague among the children of Israel, when the children
of Israel come nigh unto the sanctuary. And Moses, and
Aaron, and all the congregation of the children of
Israel, did to the Levites according unto all that YHVH
commanded Moses concerning the Levites, so did the
children of Israel unto them. And the Levites were
purified, and they washed their clothes;
and Aaron offered
them as an offering before YHVH; and Aaron made an
atonement for them to cleanse them."
