This shall be the priests` due from the people, from those who offer a sacrifice, whether it be ox or sheep, that they shall give to the priest the shoulder, and the two cheeks, and the maw.

The first-fruits of your grain, of your new wine, and of your oil, and the first of the fleece of your sheep, shall you give him.

For Yahweh your God has chosen him out of all your tribes, to stand to minister in the name of Yahweh, him and his sons for ever.

If a Levite come from any of your gates out of all Israel, where he sojourns, and come with all the desire of his soul to the place which Yahweh shall choose;

then he shall minister in the name of Yahweh his God, as all his brothers the Levites do, who stand there before Yahweh.

They shall have like portions to eat, besides that which comes of the sale of his patrimony.
