²⁰ Then Yahweh said to Aaron, “^(A)You shall have no inheritance in their land nor own any portion among them; ^(B)I am your portion and your inheritance among the sons of Israel.

²⁴ For the tithe of the sons of Israel, which they raise up as a contribution offering to Yahweh, I have given to the Levites for an inheritance; therefore I have said concerning them, ‘^(A)They shall have no inheritance among the sons of Israel.’”

18 “^(A)The Levitical priests, the whole tribe of Levi, shall have no portion or inheritance with Israel; they shall eat of the offerings to Yahweh by fire and of His inheritance. ^2 (B)And they shall have no inheritance among their brothers; Yahweh is their inheritance, as He ^[a]promised them.

²⁸ “And it shall be with regard to an inheritance for them, that ^(A)I am their inheritance; and you shall give them no possession in Israel—I am their possession.
