Deuteronomy 18:1-7
1The priestsH3548 the LevitesH3881, evenall the tribeH7626 of LeviH3878, shall have no portionH2506 nor inheritanceH5159 with IsraelH3478: they shall eatH398 the offeringsH801 of Jehovah made by fireH801, and his inheritanceH5159. 2And they shall have no inheritanceH5159 among their brethren: Jehovah is their inheritanceH5159, as he hath spokenH1696 unto them. 3And this shall beH1961 the priests’H3548 due from the peopleH5971, from them that offerH2076 a sacrificeH2077, whether it beH1961 oxH7794 or sheepH7716, that they shall giveH5414 unto the priestH3548 the shoulder, and the two cheeksH3895, and the maw. 4The first-fruits of thy grainH1715, of thy newH8492 wineH8492, and of thine oilH3323, and the firstH7225 of the fleeceH1488 of thy sheepH6629, shalt thou giveH5414 him. 5For Jehovah thy GodH430 hath chosenH977 him out of all thy tribesH7626, to standH5975 to minister in the nameH8034 of Jehovah, him and his sonsH1121 for ever.
6And if a LeviteH3881 comeH935 from any of thy gatesH8179 out of all IsraelH3478, whereH834 he sojourneth, and comeH935 with all the desireH5315 of his soulH5315 unto the placeH4725 which Jehovah shall chooseH977; 7then he shall minister in the nameH8034 of Jehovah his GodH430, as all his brethren the LevitesH3881 do, who standH5975 there before Jehovah.
