1The priests, the Levites, that is, all the tribe of Levi, will have no part or heritage with Israel: their food and their heritage will be the offerings of the Lord made by fire.
2And they will have no heritage among their countrymen: the Lord is their heritage, as he has said to them.
3And this is to be the priests' right: those who make an offering of a sheep or an ox are to give to the priest the top part of the leg and the two sides of the head and the stomach.
4And in addition you are to give him the first of your grain and wine and oil, and the first wool cut from your sheep.
5For he, and his sons after him for ever, have been marked out by the Lord your God from all your tribes, to do the work of priests in the name of the Lord.
6And if a Levite, moved by a strong desire, comes from any town in all Israel where he is living to the place marked out by the Lord;
7Then he will do the work of a priest in the name of the Lord his God, with all his brothers the Levites who are there before the Lord.
