# Connecting Statement:
Yahweh continues speaking to Aaron.
# They must perform your duties
"They" refers to members of the tribe of Levi; the word "you" is singular and refers to Aaron. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-you]])
# perform your duties and the duties of the whole tent
"do the work I have commanded you to do and all the work connected with the whole tent." See how you translated similar words in [Numbers 1:53](../01/53.md).
# or they and also you will die
Here "they" refers to any member of the tribe of Levi who comes "near to anything in the sanctuary;" the word "you" is plural and refers to both Aaron and the rest of the Levites who are serving in approved roles. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-pronouns]])
