祭司和利未人的職責
18 耶和華對亞倫說：「你和你的兒子及親族要承擔觸犯聖所的罪責；你和你兒子也要承擔觸犯祭司職務的罪責。 2 你和你兒子在安放約櫃的聖幕供職時，要把你們利未支派的親族也一同帶去，讓他們協助你。 3 他們要遵守你的吩咐，看守整個聖幕，但不可接近聖所的器具和祭壇，以免他們和你們都死亡。 4 他們要協助你，負責看守聖幕，辦理聖幕的一切事務。外人不可靠近。 5 你們要看守聖所和祭壇，以免我的憤怒再臨到以色列人。 6 我已從以色列人中選出你們的利未親族歸給我，協助你們在會幕中司職。 7 你和你兒子要盡祭司的本分，負責祭壇和至聖所的一切事務。祭司的職分是我賞賜給你們的，外人若近前來，必被處死。」
祭司當得之物
8 耶和華對亞倫說：「你看！我讓你照管以色列人獻給我的禮物，把舉祭等一切聖物賜給你和你的子孫，作為你們應得之份。此律永遠不變。 9 以色列人獻給我的至聖之物——素祭、贖罪祭和贖過祭中留下不燒的部分都歸你和你的子孫。 10 你們男子都可以吃這些聖物，要在極其聖潔的地方吃。要把這些視為聖物。 11 以色列人獻的舉祭和搖祭都歸你，我已把它們賜給你和你的兒女，這是永遠的定例。你家中所有潔淨的人都可以吃。 12 我把以色列人獻給耶和華的初熟之物——最好的新油、新酒和五穀都賜給你。 13 他們獻給耶和華的一切初熟之物都歸你，你家中潔淨的人都可以吃。 14 以色列人永遠獻上的一切[a]都要歸你。 15 奉獻給耶和華的長子和頭生的牲畜都歸你，但要贖出長子和不潔淨的頭生牲畜。 16 他們要在滿月的時候被贖回，以聖所的秤為準，即一舍客勒是二十季拉，贖價是五十五克銀子。 17 頭生的牛、綿羊和山羊不用贖出來，牠們都是聖物。你要把牠們的血灑在祭壇上，把脂肪燒掉，作為獻給耶和華的馨香火祭； 18 牠們的肉要歸你，正如搖祭的胸肉和舉祭的右腿肉一樣。 19 以色列人獻給耶和華的聖物中，我把舉祭賜給你和你的兒女，這是永遠的定例，是我與你及你的後代所立的永世之約。」
20 耶和華對亞倫說：「你在以色列人將得之地不可有產業，不可有份於他們的財產，因為我是你在以色列人中的所得之份，是你的產業。
利未人應得之物
21 「我要把以色列人出產的十分之一賜給利未人作產業，作為他們在會幕司職的酬勞。 22 今後以色列人不可走近會幕，以免因犯罪而死。 23 只有利未人可在會幕司職，他們要擔負觸犯聖幕的罪責，這是你們世世代代要遵守的條例。利未人在以色列人中不可有產業， 24 因為我已經把以色列人給耶和華的十分之一出產賜給他們作產業。因此，我吩咐他們不可在以色列人中有產業。」
利未人應納的十分之一
25 耶和華對摩西說： 26 「你把以下條例告訴利未人。
「你們從以色列人手中得到我賜給你們作產業的十分之一後，要從中取出十分之一作為舉祭獻給耶和華， 27 這就算作你們獻上了麥場的五穀和榨酒池的酒。 28 這樣，你們要從以色列人給你們的十分之一中，拿出一部分獻給耶和華作舉祭，將這舉祭歸給亞倫祭司。 29 你們要把所得之物中至聖至好的獻給耶和華作舉祭。
30 「你要告訴利未人，『你們奉獻了最好的以後，其餘的算作你們麥場上的五穀和榨酒池的酒， 31 你們和家人可以在任何地方吃，因為這些是你們在會幕司職的酬勞。 32 你們獻上最好的以後，就不會獲罪了。你們不可褻瀆以色列人獻上的聖物，免得死亡。』」

Duties of Priests and Levites
18 The Lord said to Aaron, “You, your sons and your family are to bear the responsibility for offenses connected with the sanctuary,(A) and you and your sons alone are to bear the responsibility for offenses connected with the priesthood. 2 Bring your fellow Levites from your ancestral tribe to join you and assist you when you and your sons minister(B) before the tent of the covenant law. 3 They are to be responsible to you(C) and are to perform all the duties of the tent,(D) but they must not go near the furnishings of the sanctuary or the altar. Otherwise both they and you will die.(E) 4 They are to join you and be responsible for the care of the tent of meeting—all the work at the tent—and no one else may come near where you are.(F)
5 “You are to be responsible for the care of the sanctuary and the altar,(G) so that my wrath will not fall on the Israelites again. 6 I myself have selected your fellow Levites from among the Israelites as a gift to you,(H) dedicated to the Lord to do the work at the tent of meeting.(I) 7 But only you and your sons may serve as priests in connection with everything at the altar and inside the curtain.(J) I am giving you the service of the priesthood as a gift.(K) Anyone else who comes near the sanctuary is to be put to death.(L)”
Offerings for Priests and Levites
8 Then the Lord said to Aaron, “I myself have put you in charge of the offerings presented to me; all the holy offerings the Israelites give me I give to you and your sons as your portion,(M) your perpetual share.(N) 9 You are to have the part of the most holy offerings(O) that is kept from the fire. From all the gifts they bring me as most holy offerings, whether grain(P) or sin[a](Q) or guilt offerings,(R) that part belongs to you and your sons. 10 Eat it as something most holy; every male shall eat it.(S) You must regard it as holy.(T)
11 “This also is yours: whatever is set aside from the gifts of all the wave offerings(U) of the Israelites. I give this to you and your sons and daughters as your perpetual share.(V) Everyone in your household who is ceremonially clean(W) may eat it.
12 “I give you all the finest olive oil and all the finest new wine and grain(X) they give the Lord(Y) as the firstfruits of their harvest.(Z) 13 All the land’s firstfruits that they bring to the Lord will be yours.(AA) Everyone in your household who is ceremonially clean may eat it.(AB)
14 “Everything in Israel that is devoted[b] to the Lord(AC) is yours. 15 The first offspring of every womb, both human and animal, that is offered to the Lord is yours.(AD) But you must redeem(AE) every firstborn(AF) son and every firstborn male of unclean animals.(AG) 16 When they are a month old,(AH) you must redeem them at the redemption price set at five shekels[c](AI) of silver, according to the sanctuary shekel,(AJ) which weighs twenty gerahs.(AK)
17 “But you must not redeem the firstborn of a cow, a sheep or a goat; they are holy.(AL) Splash their blood(AM) against the altar and burn their fat(AN) as a food offering, an aroma pleasing to the Lord.(AO) 18 Their meat is to be yours, just as the breast of the wave offering(AP) and the right thigh are yours.(AQ) 19 Whatever is set aside from the holy(AR) offerings the Israelites present to the Lord I give to you and your sons and daughters as your perpetual share. It is an everlasting covenant of salt(AS) before the Lord for both you and your offspring.”
20 The Lord said to Aaron, “You will have no inheritance in their land, nor will you have any share among them;(AT) I am your share and your inheritance(AU) among the Israelites.
21 “I give to the Levites all the tithes(AV) in Israel as their inheritance(AW) in return for the work they do while serving at the tent of meeting.(AX) 22 From now on the Israelites must not go near the tent of meeting, or they will bear the consequences of their sin and will die.(AY) 23 It is the Levites who are to do the work at the tent of meeting and bear the responsibility for any offenses they commit against it. This is a lasting ordinance(AZ) for the generations to come.(BA) They will receive no inheritance(BB) among the Israelites.(BC) 24 Instead, I give to the Levites as their inheritance the tithes that the Israelites present as an offering to the Lord.(BD) That is why I said concerning them: ‘They will have no inheritance among the Israelites.’”
25 The Lord said to Moses, 26 “Speak to the Levites and say to them: ‘When you receive from the Israelites the tithe I give you(BE) as your inheritance, you must present a tenth of that tithe as the Lord’s offering.(BF) 27 Your offering will be reckoned(BG) to you as grain from the threshing floor(BH) or juice from the winepress.(BI) 28 In this way you also will present an offering to the Lord from all the tithes(BJ) you receive from the Israelites. From these tithes you must give the Lord’s portion to Aaron the priest. 29 You must present as the Lord’s portion the best and holiest part of everything given to you.’
30 “Say to the Levites: ‘When you present the best part, it will be reckoned to you as the product of the threshing floor or the winepress.(BK) 31 You and your households may eat the rest of it anywhere, for it is your wages for your work at the tent of meeting.(BL) 32 By presenting the best part(BM) of it you will not be guilty in this matter;(BN) then you will not defile the holy offerings(BO) of the Israelites, and you will not die.’”

18 1, 7 The office of Aaron and his sons, 2 With the Levites. 8 The Priest’s part of the offerings. 20 God is their portion. 26 The Levites have their tithes, and offer the tenths thereof to the Lord.
1 And the Lord said unto Aaron, Thou, and thy sons, and thy father’s house with thee, shall bear [a]the iniquity of the Sanctuary: both thou and thy sons with thee shall bear the iniquity of your Priest’s office.
2 And bring also with thee thy brethren of the tribe of Levi of the family of thy father which shall be joined with thee, and minister unto thee: but thou and thy sons with thee shall minister before the Tabernacle of the Testimony:
3 And they shall [b]keep my charge, even the charge of all the Tabernacle: but they shall not come near the instruments of the Sanctuary, nor to the altar, lest they die, both they and you.
4 And they shall be joined with thee, and keep the charge of the Tabernacle of the Congregation for all the service of the Tabernacle: and no [c]stranger shall come near unto you:
5 Therefore shall ye keep the charge of the Sanctuary, and the charge of the Altar: so there shall fall no more wrath upon the children of Israel.
6 For lo, I have (A)taken your brethren the Levites from among the children of Israel, which as a gift of yours, are given unto the Lord, to do the service of the Tabernacle of the Congregation.
7 But thou, and thy sons with thee shall keep your Priest’s office for all things of the Altar, and within the veil: therefore shall ye serve: for I have made your Priest’s office [d]an office of service: therefore the stranger that cometh near shall be slain.
8 ¶ Again the Lord spake unto Aaron, Behold, I have given thee the keeping of mine [e]offerings, of all the hallowed things of the children of Israel: unto thee have I given them for the anointing’s sake, and to thy sons for a perpetual ordinance.
9 This shall be thine of the most holy things, reserved from [f]the fire: all their offering of all their meat offering, and of all their sin offering, and of all their trespass offering, which they bring unto me, that shall be most holy unto thee, and to thy sons.
10 In the most [g]holy place shalt thou eat it: every male shall eat of it: it is holy unto thee.
11 This also shall be thine: the heave offering of their gift, with all the shake offerings of the children of Israel, I have given them unto thee, and to thy sons and to thy [h]daughters with thee, to be a duty forever: all the clean in thine house shall eat of it.
12 All the [i]fat of the oil, and all the fat of the wine, and of the wheat, which they shall offer unto the Lord for their firstfruits, I have given them unto thee.
13 And the first ripe of all that is in their land, which they shall bring unto Lord shall be thine: all the clean in thine house shall eat of it.
14 (B)Everything separate from the common use in Israel shall be thine.
15 All that first openeth the (C)matrix of any flesh, which they shall offer unto the Lord of man or beast, shall be thine: but the firstborn of man shalt thou redeem, and the firstborn of the unclean beast shalt thou redeem.
16 And those that are to be redeemed, shalt thou redeem from the age of a month, according to thy estimation, for the money of five shekels, after the shekel of the Sanctuary, (D)which is twenty gerahs.
17 But the firstborn of a cow, or the firstborn of a sheep, or the firstborn of a goat shalt thou not [j]redeem: for they are holy: thou shalt sprinkle their blood at the altar, and thou shalt burn their fat: it is a sacrifice made by fire for a sweet savor unto the Lord.
18 And the flesh of them shall be thine, (E)as the shake breast, and as the right shoulder shall be thine.
19 All the heave offerings of the holy things which the children of Israel shall offer unto the Lord, have I given thee, and thy sons, and thy daughters with thee, to be a duty forever: it is a perpetual covenant [k]of salt before the Lord, to thee, and to thy seed with thee.
20 ¶ And the Lord said unto Aaron, Thou shalt have none inheritance in their [l]land: neither shalt thou have any part among them: (F)I am thy part and thine inheritance among the children of Israel.
21 For behold, I have given the children of Levi all the tenth in Israel for an inheritance, for their service which they serve in the Tabernacle of the Congregation.
22 Neither shall the children of Israel any more [m]come near the Tabernacle of the Congregation, lest they sustain sin, and die.
23 But the Levites shall do the service in the Tabernacle of the Congregation, and they shall bear [n]their sin: it is a law forever in your generations, that among the children of Israel they possess none inheritance.
24 For the tithes of the children of Israel, which they shall offer as an offering unto the Lord, I have given the Levites for an inheritance, therefore I have said unto them, Among the children of Israel ye shall possess none inheritance.
25 ¶ And the Lord spake unto Moses, saying,
26 Speak also unto the Levites, and say unto them, When ye shall take of the children of Israel the tithes, which I have given you of them for your inheritance, then shall ye take an heave offering of that same for the Lord, even the tenth part of the tithe.
27 And your heave offering shall be reckoned unto you, as the [o]corn of the barn, or as the abundance of the winepress.
28 So ye shall also offer an heave offering unto the Lord of all your tithes, which ye shall receive of the children of Israel, and ye shall give thereof the Lord’s heave offering to Aaron the Priest.
29 Ye shall offer of all your [p]gifts all the Lord’s heave offerings: of all the [q]fat of the same shall ye offer the holy things thereof.
30 Therefore thou shalt say unto them, When ye have offered the fat thereof, then it shall be counted unto the Levites, as the increase of the corn floor, or as the increase of the winepress.
31 And ye shall eat it in all [r]places, ye, and your households: for it is your wages for your service in the Tabernacle of the Congregation.
32 And ye shall [s]bear no sin by the reason of it, when ye have offered the fat of it: neither shall ye pollute the holy [t]things of the children of Israel, lest ye die.
