| 6. Formal Translation Let no one enter the house of the LORD {Yahweh, Sanctuary Dweller} except the priests and the ministers of the Levites; they alone may enter because they are holy. Yet all the people must keep the charge of the LORD. |
| 6. Dynamic Translation No one may enter the LORD’s temple except the priests and Levite assistants—they alone may enter because they are consecrated. Everyone else must observe the LORD’s {Yahweh, Sacred Authority} charge. |
