Numbers 18:12-18
12All the bestH2459 of the oilH3323, and all the bestH2459 of the wineH8492, and of the wheatH1715, the firstfruitsH7225 of them which they shall offerH5414 unto YhwhH3068, them have I givenH5414 thee.1
13And whatsoever is first ripeH1061 in the landH776, which they shall bringH935 unto YhwhH3068, shall be thine; every one that is cleanH2889 in thine houseH1004 shall eatH398 of it.
14Every thing devotedH2764 in IsraelH3478 shall be thine.
15Every thing that openethH6363 the matrixH7358 in all fleshH1320, which they bringH7126 unto YhwhH3068, whether it be of menH120 or beastsH929, shall be thine: nevertheless the firstbornH1060 of manH120 shalt thou surelyH6299 redeemH6299, and the firstlingH1060 of uncleanH2931 beastsH929 shalt thou redeemH6299.
16And those that are to be redeemedH6299 from a monthH2320 oldH1121 shalt thou redeemH6299, according to thine estimationH6187, for the moneyH3701 of fiveH2568 shekelsH8255, after the shekelH8255 of the sanctuaryH6944, which is twentyH6242 gerahsH1626.
17But the firstlingH1060 of a cowH7794, or the firstlingH1060 of a sheepH3775, or the firstlingH1060 of a goatH5795, thou shalt not redeemH6299; they are holyH6944: thou shalt sprinkleH2236 their bloodH1818 upon the altarH4196, and shalt burnH6999 their fatH2459 for an offering made by fireH801, for a sweetH5207 savourH7381 unto YhwhH3068.
18And the fleshH1320 of them shall be thine, as the waveH8573 breastH2373 and as the rightH3225 shoulderH7785 are thine.
