| King James Version (KJV) | New International Version (NIV) |
| 13 For because ye did it not at the first, the LORD our God made a breach upon us, for that we sought him not after the due order. | 13 It was because you, the Levites, did not bring it up the first time that the LORD our God broke out in anger against us. We did not inquire of him about how to do it in the prescribed way." |
