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,^(A) your perpetual share.^{(B) 9} You are to have the part of the most holy offerings^(C) that is kept from the fire. From all the gifts they bring me as most holy offerings, whether grain^(D) or sin^[a](E) or guilt offerings,^(F) that part belongs to you and your sons. ¹⁰ Eat it as something most holy; every male shall eat it.^(G) You must regard it as holy.^(H)

¹¹ “This also is yours: whatever is set aside from the gifts of all the wave offerings^(I) of the Israelites. I give this to you and your sons and daughters as your perpetual share.^(J) Everyone in your household who is ceremonially clean^(K) may eat it.

¹² “I give you all the finest olive oil and all the finest new wine and grain^(L) they give the Lord^(M) as the firstfruits of their harvest.^{(N) 13} All the land’s firstfruits that they bring to the Lord will be yours.^(O) Everyone in your household who is ceremonially clean may eat it.^(P)

³ This is the share due the priests^(A) from the people who sacrifice a bull^(B) or a sheep: the shoulder, the internal organs and the meat from the head.^{(C) 4} You are to give them the firstfruits of your grain, new wine and olive oil, and the first wool from the shearing of your sheep,^{(D) 5} for the Lord your God has chosen them^(E) and their descendants out of all your tribes to stand and minister^(F) in the Lord’s name always.^(G)
