Numbers 4:29-33 and John 3:31-36 (New Living Translation)

NUMBERS 4:29-33
THE DUTIES OF THE LEVITE CLAN OF MERARI

29  “Now record the names of the members of the clans and families of the Merarite division of the tribe of Levi. 

30  List all the men between the ages of thirty and fifty who are eligible to serve in the Tabernacle.

31  “Their only duty at the Tabernacle will be to carry loads. They will carry the frames of the Tabernacle, the crossbars, the posts, and the bases; 

32  also the posts for the courtyard walls with their bases, pegs, and ropes; and all the accessories and everything else related to their use. Assign the various loads to each man by name. 

33  So these are the duties of the Merarite clans at the Tabernacle. They are directly responsible to Ithamar son of Aaron the priest.”

JOHN 3:31-36

HE WHO COMES FROM HEAVEN

31  “He has come from above and is greater than anyone else. We are of the earth, and we speak of earthly things, but he has come from heaven and is greater than anyone else.

32  He testifies about what he has seen and heard, but how few believe what he tells them! 

33  Anyone who accepts his testimony can affirm that God is true. 

34  For he is sent by God. He speaks God’s words, for God gives him the Spirit without limit. 

35  The Father loves his Son and has put everything into his hands. 

36  And anyone who believes in God’s Son has eternal life. Anyone who doesn’t obey the Son will never experience eternal life but remains under God’s angry judgment.”
