8And the LORD spoke to Aaron: "Behold, I have given you the keeping of my contribution, even all the holy things of the sons of Israel. To you I have given them, as a statute forever, for you and for your sons."9This will be for you a sanctuary of holy things from the fire, all their offering, for all their grain offering, and for all their sin offering, and for all their guilt offering, which they return to me, a holy of holy things. It is for you and for your sons.10In the holy place of the holy places you shall eat it; every male shall eat it; it shall be holy to you.11And this is for you—the contribution of their contribution—for all the wave offering of the sons of Israel. I have given them to you, and to your sons and to your daughters with you, as a statute forever. Every ritually clean person in your house may eat it.12All the fat of oil and all the fat of new wine and grain, their firstfruits which they give to the LORD, to you I have given them.13The firstborn of all that they bring to the LORD from their land shall be yours; every ritually clean one in your house shall eat it.14Every ban in Israel will be yours.15Every firstborn offering of the womb, for every flesh that they present to the LORD, whether human or beast, will be yours. But you must redeem the firstborn of humans, and you must redeem the firstborn of unclean beasts.16And its redemption, from a son of a month, you shall redeem according to your monetary valuation of five silver shekels by the shekel of the sanctuary; it is twenty gerahs.17But the firstborn of an ox or the firstborn of a sheep or the firstborn of a goat you shall not redeem; they are holy. You shall sprinkle their blood on the altar, and you shall burn their fat portions as an offering, for a soothing aroma to the LORD.18And their flesh shall be yours like the breast of the wave offering and like the right thigh; it shall be yours.19Every contribution of the holy things that the sons of Israel raise to the LORD, I have given to you, to your sons, and to your daughters with you, as a statute of eternity. It is a covenant of salt of eternity before the LORD for you and for your seed with you.20And the LORD said to Aaron, "You shall not inherit land among them, and you shall have no portion among them; I am your portion and your inheritance among the sons of Israel."21And to the sons of Levi, behold, I have given every tithe in Israel as an inheritance in exchange for their service which they serve, the service of the Tent of Meeting.22And the sons of Israel shall not approach the tent of meeting anymore, to bear sin and die.23And the Levite—he will serve the service of the tent of meeting, and they will bear their iniquity, a statute of eternity for your generations. And in the midst of the sons of Israel they will not inherit an inheritance.24For the tithe of the sons of Israel, which they raise as an offering to the LORD, I have given to the Levites as an inheritance. Therefore I said to them, "Among the sons of Israel they shall not inherit an inheritance."25And the LORD spoke to Moses, saying.26And to the Levites you shall speak and say to them: "When you take from the sons of Israel the tithe which I have given to you from them as your inheritance, then you shall lift up from it the contribution of the LORD—a tenth of the tithe."27And it will be reckoned to you as grain from the threshing floor and as a full portion from the winepress for your heave offering.28In this way you shall also raise the contribution of the LORD from all your tithes, which you take from the sons of Israel, and you shall give from it the contribution of the LORD to Aaron the priest.29From all your gifts you shall lift up every contribution of the LORD, from all its fat portions, its holy portion from it.30And you shall say to them: "When you raise its fat from it, it shall be reckoned to the Levites as the harvest of the threshing floor and as the harvest of the winepress."31And you shall eat it in every place—you and your household—for it is wages to you in place of your service in the Tent of Meeting.32And you shall not bear sin upon it when you offer up its fat from it, and the holy things of the sons of Israel you shall not profane, and you shall not die.
