Leviticus 10 (WEBP)

[1] Nadab and Abihu, the sons of Aaron, each took his censer, and put fire in it, and laid incense on it, and offered strange fire before Yahweh, which he had not commanded them.
[2] Fire came out from before Yahweh, and devoured them, and they died before Yahweh.
[3] Then Moses said to Aaron, “This is what Yahweh spoke of, saying, ‘I will show myself holy to those who come near me, and before all the people I will be glorified.’ ” Aaron held his peace.
[4] Moses called Mishael and Elzaphan, the sons of Uzziel the uncle of Aaron, and said to them, “Draw near, carry your brothers from before the sanctuary out of the camp.”
[5] So they came near, and carried them in their tunics out of the camp, as Moses had said.
[6] Moses said to Aaron, and to Eleazar and to Ithamar, his sons, “Don’t let the hair of your heads go loose, and don’t tear your clothes, so that you don’t die, and so that he will not be angry with all the congregation; but let your brothers, the whole house of Israel, bewail the burning which Yahweh has kindled.
[7] You shall not go out from the door of the Tent of Meeting, lest you die; for the anointing oil of Yahweh is on you.” They did according to the word of Moses.
[8] Then Yahweh said to Aaron,
[9] “You and your sons are not to drink wine or strong drink whenever you go into the Tent of Meeting, or you will die. This shall be a statute forever throughout your generations.
[10] You are to make a distinction between the holy and the common, and between the unclean and the clean.
[11] You are to teach the children of Israel all the statutes which Yahweh has spoken to them by Moses.”
[12] Moses spoke to Aaron, and to Eleazar and to Ithamar, his sons who were left, “Take the meal offering that remains of the offerings of Yahweh made by fire, and eat it without yeast beside the altar; for it is most holy;
[13] and you shall eat it in a holy place, because it is your portion, and your sons’ portion, of the offerings of Yahweh made by fire; for so I am commanded.
[14] The waved breast and the heaved thigh you shall eat in a clean place, you, and your sons, and your daughters with you: for they are given as your portion, and your sons’ portion, out of the sacrifices of the peace offerings of the children of Israel.
[15] They shall bring the heaved thigh and the waved breast with the offerings made by fire of the fat, to wave it for a wave offering before Yahweh. It shall be yours, and your sons’ with you, as a portion forever, as Yahweh has commanded.”
[16] Moses diligently inquired about the goat of the sin offering, and, behold, it was burned. He was angry with Eleazar and with Ithamar, the sons of Aaron who were left, saying,
[17] “Why haven’t you eaten the sin offering in the place of the sanctuary, since it is most holy, and he has given it to you to bear the iniquity of the congregation, to make atonement for them before Yahweh?
[18] Behold, its blood was not brought into the inner part of the sanctuary. You certainly should have eaten it in the sanctuary, as I commanded.”
[19] Aaron spoke to Moses, “Behold, today they have offered their sin offering and their burnt offering before Yahweh; and such things as these have happened to me. If I had eaten the sin offering today, would it have been pleasing in Yahweh’s sight?”
[20] When Moses heard that, it was pleasing in his sight.

Leviticus 10:16 “Behold”, from “הִנֵּה”, means look at, take notice, observe, see, or gaze at. It is often used as an interjection.

Young’s Literal Translation

Leviticus 10 (YLT)

[1] And the sons of Aaron, Nadab and Abihu, take each his censer, and put in them fire, and put on it perfume, and bring near before Jehovah strange fire, which He hath not commanded them;
[2] and fire goeth out from before Jehovah, and consumeth them, and they die before Jehovah.
[3] And Moses saith unto Aaron, ‘It is that which Jehovah hath spoken, saying, By those drawing near to Me I am sanctified, and in the face of all the people I am honoured;’ and Aaron is silent.
[4] And Moses calleth unto Mishael and unto Elzaphan, sons of Uzziel, uncle of Aaron, and saith unto them, ‘Come near, bear your brethren from the front of the sanctuary unto the outside of the camp;’
[5] and they come near, and bear them in their coats unto the outside of the camp, as Moses hath spoken.
[6] And Moses saith unto Aaron, and to Eleazar, and to Ithamar his sons, ‘Your heads ye do not uncover, and your garments ye do not rend, that ye die not, and on all the company He be wroth; as to your brethren, the whole house of Israel, they bewail the burning which Jehovah hath kindled;
[7] and from the opening of the tent of meeting ye do not go out, lest ye die, for the anointing oil of Jehovah is upon you;’ and they do according to the word of Moses.
[8] And Jehovah speaketh unto Aaron, saying,
[9] ‘Wine and strong drink thou dost not drink, thou, and thy sons with thee, in your going in unto the tent of meeting, and ye die not-a statute age-during to your generations;
[10] so as to make a separation between the holy and the common, and between the unclean and the pure;
[11] and to teach the sons of Israel all the statutes which Jehovah hath spoken unto them by the hand of Moses.’
[12] And Moses speaketh unto Aaron, and unto Eleazar, and unto Ithamar his sons, who are left, ‘Take ye the present that is left from the fire-offerings of Jehovah, and eat it unleavened near the altar, for it is most holy,
[13] and ye have eaten it in the holy place, for it is thy portion, and the portion of thy sons, from the fire-offerings of Jehovah; for so I have been commanded.
[14] ‘And the breast of the wave-offering, and the leg of the heave-offering, ye do eat in a clean place, thou, and thy sons, and thy daughters with thee; for thy portion and the portion of thy sons they have been given, out of the sacrifices of peace-offerings of the sons of Israel;
[15] the leg of the heave-offering, and breast of the wave-offering, besides fire-offerings of the fat, they do bring in to wave a wave-offering before Jehovah, and it hath been to thee, and to thy sons with thee, by a statute age-during, as Jehovah hath commanded.’
[16] And the goat of the sin-offering hath Moses diligently sought, and lo, it is burnt, and he is wroth against Eleazar, and against Ithamar, sons of Aaron, who are left, saying,
[17] ‘Wherefore have ye not eaten the sin-offering in the holy place, for it is most holy-and it He hath given to you to take away the iniquity of the company, to make atonement for them before Jehovah?
[18] lo, its blood hath not been brought in unto the holy place within; eating ye do eat it in the holy place, as I have commanded.’
[19] And Aaron speaketh unto Moses, ‘Lo, to-day they have brought near their sin-offering and their burnt-offering before Jehovah; and things like these meet me, yet I have eaten a sin-offering to-day; is it good in the eyes of Jehovah?’
[20] And Moses hearkeneth, and it is good in his eyes.
