Numbers 18:4-7

[4] And they shall be joined  unto thee, and keep  the charge  of the tabernacle  of the congregation,  for all the service  of the tabernacle:  and a stranger  shall not come nigh  [5] And ye shall keep  the charge  of the sanctuary,  and the charge  of the altar:  that there be no wrath  any more upon the children  of Israel.  [6] And I, behold, I have taken  your brethren  the Levites  from among  the children  of Israel:  to you they are given  as a gift  for the LORD,  to do  the service  of the tabernacle  of the congregation.  [7] Therefore thou and thy sons  with thee shall keep  your priest's office  for every thing  of the altar,  and within  the vail;  and ye shall serve:  I have given  your priest's office  unto you as a service  of gift:  and the stranger  shall be put to death.
