10You shall present the Levites before the LORD. The children of Israel shall lay their hands on the Levites,

12“The Levites shall lay their hands on the heads of the bulls, and you shall offer the one for a sin offering and the other for a burnt offering to the LORD, to make atonement for the Levites.
13You shall set the Levites before Aaron and before his sons, and offer them as a wave offering to the LORD.
