2 These are the names of the descendants of Aaron: Nadab the firstborn, Abihu, Eleazar, and Ithamar.
3 These are the names of the descendants of Aaron, the priests, the anointed ones whom he consecrated as priests.
4 Nadab and Abihu died before Yahweh when they presented a strange fire before Yahweh in the desert of Sinai, and they had no children. Eleazar and Ithamar served as priest during the presence of Aaron their father.
5 Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying,
6 “Bring near the tribe of Levi, and set the tribe before Aaron the priest, and they will minister to him.
