← Deuteronomy 10:7	Deuteronomy 10:8 (KJV)	Deuteronomy 10:9 →
From thence they journeyed unto Gudgodah; and from Gudgodah to Jotbath, a land of rivers of waters.	At that time the LORD separated the tribe of Levi, to bear the ark of the covenant of the LORD, to stand before the LORD to minister unto him, and to bless in his name, unto this day.	Wherefore Levi hath no part nor inheritance with his brethren; the LORD [is] his inheritance, according as the LORD thy God promised him.
