Numbers:18:21-28
rsv@Numbers:18:21 @ "To the Levites I have given every tithe in Israel for an inheritance, in return for their service which they serve, their service in the tent of meeting.
rsv@Numbers:18:22 @ And henceforth the people of Israel shall not come near the tent of meeting, lest they bear sin and die.
rsv@Numbers:18:23 @ But the Levites shall do the service of the tent of meeting, and they shall bear their iniquity; it shall be a perpetual statute throughout your generations; and among the people of Israel they shall have no inheritance.
rsv@Numbers:18:24 @ For the tithe of the people of Israel, which they present as an offering to the LORD, I have given to the Levites for an inheritance; therefore I have said of them that they shall have no inheritance among the people of Israel."
rsv@Numbers:18:25 @ And the LORD said to Moses,
rsv@Numbers:18:26 @ "Moreover you shall say to the Levites, `When you take from the people of Israel the tithe which I have given you from them for your inheritance, then you shall present an offering from it to the LORD, a tithe of the tithe.
rsv@Numbers:18:27 @ And your offering shall be reckoned to you as though it were the grain of the threshing floor, and as the fulness of the wine press.
rsv@Numbers:18:28 @ So shall you also present an offering to the LORD from all your tithes, which you receive from the people of Israel; and from it you shall give the LORD's offering to Aaron the priest.
