Potem wezmą cielca młodego, z ofiarą jego śniedną, mąki pszennej, zagniecionej z oliwą, a cielca młodego drugiego weźmiesz na ofiarę za grzech.
Tedy mają wziąć cielca a k niemu ofiarę śniedną z mąki czystej nagnietanej z oliwą, a weźmiesz też i drugiego cielca ofiarę za grzech.
Niech też wezmą młodego cielca z jego ofiarą z pokarmów przednią mąką zaczynioną oliwą, zaś drugiego młodego cielca weźmiesz sam na ofiarę zagrzeszną.
Potem wezmą cielca młodego, z ofiarą jego śniedną, mąki pszennej, zagniecionej z oliwą, a cielca młodego drugiego weźmiesz na ofiarę za grzech.
Następnie niech wezmą młodego cielca wraz z jego ofiarą pokarmową z mąki pszennej zmieszanej z oliwą, drugiego zaś młodego cielca weźmiesz na ofiarę za grzech.
Potem niech wezmą cielca wraz z jego ofiarą z pokarmów, to jest przedniej mąki zaczynionej oliwą, drugiego zaś cielca weźmiesz ty na ofiarę za grzech.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
Then let them take a young bullock,.... Of two years old, as the Jewish writers gather from the other in the next clause, being called the second; though the wise men say one of three years old is fit for such a sacrifice; nay, others say, if four or five years old; but the decision is according to the wise men q
with his meat offering, [even] fine flour mingled with oil: which always went along with a burnt offering, and consisted of three tenth deals of line flour, and half an hin of oil, Numbers 28:12;
and another young bullock shalt thou take for a sin offering; which was the offering for the sin of the whole congregation of Israel, through ignorance; and this being for all the Levites, and they being instead of the firstborn of Israel, such an offering was required; and though there was no particular sin charged upon them, but it became necessary for their perfect cleansing and expiation.
q Misn. Parah, c. 1. sect. 2. & Bartenora in ib.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
The Levites could only undertake their duties Numbers 3:0; Numbers 4:0 after the formal exchange of the Levites for the first-born Numbers 3:44-51.
The distinction between the “consecration” of the priests Leviticus 8:0 and the less solemn “purification” Numbers 8:21 of the Levites is marked. These rites of purification are similar to those incumbent on the priests of Egypt.
Numbers 8:7
Water of purifying - literally, “sin water:” i. e. water to cleanse from sin; no doubt taken from the laver of the sanctuary, which was used by the priests for purification before they went into the tabernacle to minister (compare Numbers 5:17; Exodus 30:18 ff).
The “sprinkling” of so large a body of men could have been only general, but tokens of individual purification are specified (compare also Leviticus 14:8).
Numbers 8:8
The two bullocks were “to make an atonement for the Levites,” and therefore are presented in their name. These offerings are similar to those prescribed in Leviticus 8:14 ff at the consecration of the priests, except that the burnt-offering was on that occasion a ram. The larger victim corresponds to the larger number of the Levites.
Numbers 8:10
The children of Israel - i. e. through the heads of their tribes, who Numbers 7:2 no doubt acted for their tribesmen. This act, the distinguishing feature of the ceremony, represented the transfer to the Levites of the sacred duties originally incumbent on the whole people.
Numbers 8:11
Offer ... offering - Compare the margin Aaron pointed to the Levites, and then waved his hands, indicating (compare Leviticus 7:30 note) that the offering was dedicated to God, and, again, by grant from Him, withdrawn for the use of the priests.
Numbers 8:19
Make an atonement for the children of Israel - i. e. by performing those services which were due from the children of Israel; the omission of which by the children of Israel would, but for the interposition of the Levites, have called down “wrath” from God, or Numbers 1:53 “plague.” The institution of the Levites was an extension of that mediatorial system which the people themselves, terrified at the direct manifestations to them of the divine presence, desired; see Deuteronomy 5:25. Further, it is suggested to us here as an act of mercy on the part of God; yet even the priests and Levites themselves were not always sufficiently heedful and reverent. Compare Numbers 17:10; Leviticus 10:1 ff; 2 Samuel 6:6 following.
Numbers 8:21
Were purified - Rather, purified themselves; as directed in Numbers 8:7.
