Deuteronomy 18:1-8

1The priests, the Levites, [and] the whole tribe of Levi, shall have no portion nor inheritance with Israel: Jehovah's offerings by fire, and his inheritance shall they eat,

2but they shall have no inheritance among their brethren: Jehovah, he is their inheritance, as he hath said unto them.

3And this shall be the priest's due from the people, from them that sacrifice a sacrifice, whether ox, or sheep: they shall give unto the priest the shoulder, and the jawbones, and the maw.

4The firstfruits [also] of thy corn, of thy new wine, and of thine oil, and the firstfruits of the shearing of thy sheep, shalt thou give him;

5for Jehovah thy 1God hath chosen him out of all thy tribes, that he may stand to serve in the name of Jehovah, he and his sons continually.

6And if the Levite shall come from one of thy gates out of all Israel, where he sojourneth, and shall come according to all the desire of his soul unto the place which Jehovah will choose,

7and shall serve in the name of Jehovah his 2God, as all his brethren the Levites that stand there before Jehovah,

8— they shall have like portions to eat, besides that which he hath sold of his patrimony.
