*
Thus speak unto the Levites ,
and say unto them ,
When ye take of the children of Israel the tithes which I have given you from them for your inheritance ,
then ye shall offer up an heave offering of it for the LORD ,
even a tenth part of the tithe ma #
aser #.
*
And this your heave offering shall be reckoned unto you ,
as though it were the corn of the threshingfloor ,
and as the fulness of the winepress .
*
Thus ye also shall offer an heave offering unto the LORD of all your tithes ma #
aser #,
which ye receive of the children of Israel Yisra #
el #;
and ye shall give thereof the LORDS heave offering to Aaron the priest .
*
Out of all your gifts ye shall offer every heave offering of the LORD ,
of all the best thereof ,
even the hallowed part thereof out of it .
*
Therefore thou shalt say unto them ,
When ye have heaved the best thereof from it ,
then it shall be counted unto the Levites as the increase of the threshingfloor ,
and as the increase of the winepress .
*
And ye shall eat it in every place ,
ye and your households :
for it is your reward for your service in the tabernacle of the congregation mow #
ed #.
*
And ye shall bear no sin by reason of it ,
when ye have heaved from it the best of it :
neither shall ye pollute the holy things of the children of Israel Yisra #
el #,
lest ye die .
