Elberfelder Bibel (ELB)Deutsch
Nur waren der Priester zu wenig, so daß sie nicht allen Brandopfern die Haut abziehen konnten; und so unterstützten sie ihre Brüder, die Leviten, bis das Werk vollendet war, und bis die Priester sich geheiligt hatten; denn die Leviten waren redlichen Herzens, sich zu heiligen, mehr als die Priester.
Reina-Valera (RV)Español
Mas los sacerdotes eran pocos, y no podían bastar á desollar los holocaustos; y así sus hermanos los Levitas les ayudaron hasta que acabaron la obra, y hasta que los sacerdotes se santificaron: porque los Levitas tuvieron mayor prontitud de corazón para santificarse, que los sacerdotes.
