18 “Abalewi b’Abatambyi, ni ukuvuga abagize umuryango wa Lewi wose, ntibazahabwa umugabane cyangwa umurage mu Bisirayeli. Bajye barya ibitambo bitwikwa n’umuriro biturwa Yehova.+ Imana ni yo izajya ibitaho. 2 Ntibazahabwa umurage mu bavandimwe babo. Yehova ni we murage wabo nk’uko yabibabwiye.

7 Ariko Abalewi bo nta murage bazahabwa+ kuko umurimo w’ubutambyi bakorera Yehova, ari wo murage wabo.+ Gadi na Rubeni n’igice cy’abagize umuryango wa Manase,+ bari baramaze kubona umurage wabo mu burasirazuba bwa Yorodani, bawuhawe na Mose umugaragu wa Yehova.”

28 “‘Uyu ni wo murage wabo: Ni njye murage wabo.+ Ntimuzagire umugabane mubaha muri Isirayeli, kuko ari njye mugabane wabo.
