אֵ֤לֶּה בִקְשׁוּ֙ כְּתָבָ֣ם הַמִּתְיַחְשִׂ֔ים וְלֹ֣א נִמְצָ֔אוּ וַיְגֹאֲל֖וּ מִן הַכְּהֻנָּ֑ה׃
ʾeleh biqshv ktabam hamityaḥshiym vloʾ nimṣaʾv vaygoʾalv min hakhunah
King James Version (KJV)

These sought their register among those that were reckoned by genealogy, but they were not found: therefore were they, as polluted, put from the priesthood.

Modern English

These sought their registration among those enrolled in the genealogies, but they were not found there, and so they were excluded from the priesthood as unclean.
