25 And from the age of fifty years they shall cease waiting upon the service thereof, and shall serve no more:
25
but at the age of fifty, they must retire from their regular service and work no longer.
26 But shall minister with their brethren in the tabernacle of the congregation, to keep the charge, and shall do no service. Thus shalt thou do unto the Levites touching their charge.
26
They may assist their brothers in performing their duties at the tent of meeting, but they themselves must not do the work. This, then, is how you are to assign the responsibilities of the Levites.”
