Numbers 18:12-24

VIN(i) 12 All the finest olive oil and all the finest new wine and their best grain that they have given to the LORD, I have given them to you. 13 "The first of all produce harvested in their land that they bring to the LORD are yours. Anyone in your household who is clean may eat it. 14 »Anything in Israel that is claimed by the LORD is yours. 15 "Every firstborn male, human or animal that is brought to the LORD is yours. But you must buy back every firstborn son and the firstborn male of any unclean animal. 16 "When they are one month old, you must buy them back at the fixed price of two ounces of silver using the standard weight of the holy place. 17 "But you shall not redeem the firstborn of a cow, or the firstborn of a sheep, or the firstborn of a goat. They are holy. You shall sprinkle their blood on the altar, and shall burn their fat for an offering made by fire, for a pleasant aroma to the LORD. 18 Their flesh is to be yours; like the breast of the wave offering and the right leg, it is to be yours. 19 All the contributions of holiness that the Israelites offer to the LORD I have given to you and your sons and your daughters with you as an eternal decree; it is an eternal covenant of salt before the LORD to you and your offspring with you." 20 And the LORD said to Aaron, You shall have no inheritance in their land, neither shall you have any part among them. I am your part and your inheritance among the sons of Israel. 21 "I have given the Levites one-tenth of every Israelite’s income. This is in return for the work they do at the tent of meeting. 22 »The other Israelites must never again come near the tent of meeting. Otherwise, they will suffer the consequences of their sin and die. 23 »Only the Levites will do the work at the tent of meeting. They are responsible for their own sins. This is a long lasting law for future generations. They will own no property, as the other Israelites will. 24 "Instead, I will give the Levites what the Israelites contribute to the LORD, one-tenth of the Israelites’ income. This is why I said about them: They will own no property as the other Israelites do."
