Numbers 18 (kjv)

And the LORD^H3068 said^H559 unto Aaron^H175, Thou and thy sons^H1121 and thy father's^H1 house^H1004 with thee shall bear^H5375 the iniquity^H5771 of the sanctuary^H4720: and thou and thy sons^H1121 with thee shall bear^H5375 the iniquity^H5771 of your priesthood^H3550.²And thy brethren^H251 also of the tribe^H4294 of Levi^H3878, the tribe^H7626 of thy father^H1, bring^H7126 thou with thee, that they may be joined^H3867 unto thee, and minister^H8334 unto thee: but thou and thy sons^H1121 with thee shall minister before^H6440 the tabernacle^H168 of witness^H5715.³And they shall keep^H8104 thy charge^H4931, and the charge^H4931 of all the tabernacle^H168: only they shall not come nigh^H7126 the vessels^H3627 of the sanctuary^H6944 and the altar^H4196, that neither they, nor ye also, die^H4191.⁴And they shall be joined^H3867 unto thee, and keep^H8104 the charge^H4931 of the tabernacle^H168 of the congregation^H4150, for all the service^H5656 of the tabernacle^H168: and a stranger^H2114 shall not come nigh^H7126 unto you.⁵And ye shall keep^H8104 the charge^H4931 of the sanctuary^H6944, and the charge^H4931 of the altar^H4196: that there be no wrath^H7110 any more upon the children^H1121 of Israel^H3478.⁶And I, behold, I have taken^H3947 your brethren^H251 the Levites^H3881 from among^H8432 the children^H1121 of Israel^H3478: to you they are given^H5414 as a gift^H4979 for the LORD^H3068, to do^H5647 the service^H5656 of the tabernacle^H168 of the congregation^H4150.⁷Therefore thou and thy sons^H1121 with thee shall keep^H8104 your priest's office^H3550 for every thing^H1697 of the altar^H4196, and within^H1004 the vail^H6532; and ye shall serve^H5647: I have given^H5414 your priest's office^H3550 unto you as a service^H5656 of gift^H4979: and the stranger^H2114 that cometh nigh^H7131 shall be put to death^H4191.

⁸And the LORD^H3068 spake^H1696 unto Aaron^H175, Behold, I also have given^H5414 thee the charge^H4931 of mine heave offerings^H8641 of all the hallowed things^H6944 of the children^H1121 of Israel^H3478; unto thee have I given^H5414 them by reason of the anointing^H4888, and to thy sons^H1121, by an ordinance^H2706 for ever^H5769.⁹This shall be thine of the most^H6944 holy things^H6944, reserved from the fire^H784: every oblation^H7133 of theirs, every meat offering^H4503 of theirs, and every sin offering^H2403 of theirs, and every trespass offering^H817 of theirs, which they shall render^H7725 unto me, shall be most^H6944 holy^H6944 for thee and for thy sons^H1121.¹⁰In the most^H6944 holy^H6944 place shalt thou eat^H398 it; every male^H2145 shall eat^H398 it: it shall be holy^H6944 unto thee.¹¹And this is thine; the heave offering^H8641 of their gift^H4976, with all the wave offerings^H8573 of the children^H1121 of Israel^H3478: I have given^H5414 them unto thee, and to thy sons^H1121 and to thy daughters^H1323 with thee, by a statute^H2706 for ever^H5769: every one that is clean^H2889 in thy house^H1004 shall eat^H398 of it.¹²All the best^H2459 of the oil^H3323, and all the best^H2459 of the wine^H8492, and of the wheat^H1715, the firstfruits^H7225 of them which they shall offer^H5414 unto the LORD^H3068, them have I given^H5414 thee.¹³And whatsoever is first ripe^H1061 in the land^H776, which they shall bring^H935 unto the LORD^H3068, shall be thine; every one that is clean^H2889 in thine house^H1004 shall eat^H398 of it.¹⁴Every thing devoted^H2764 in Israel^H3478 shall be thine.¹⁵Every thing that openeth^H6363 the matrix^H7358 in all flesh^H1320, which they bring^H7126 unto the LORD^H3068, whether it be of men^H120 or beasts^H929, shall be thine: nevertheless the firstborn^H1060 of man^H120 shalt thou surely^H6299 redeem^H6299, and the firstling^H1060 of unclean^H2931 beasts^H929 shalt thou redeem^H6299.¹⁶And those that are to be redeemed^H6299 from a month^H2320 old^H1121 shalt thou redeem^H6299, according to thine estimation^H6187, for the money^H3701 of five^H2568 shekels^H8255, after the shekel^H8255 of the sanctuary^H6944, which is twenty^H6242 gerahs^H1626.¹⁷But the firstling^H1060 of a cow^H7794, or the firstling^H1060 of a sheep^H3775, or the firstling^H1060 of a goat^H5795, thou shalt not redeem^H6299; they are holy^H6944: thou shalt sprinkle^H2236 their blood^H1818 upon the altar^H4196, and shalt burn^H6999 their fat^H2459 for an offering made by fire^H801, for a sweet^H5207 savour^H7381 unto the LORD^H3068.¹⁸And the flesh^H1320 of them shall be thine, as the wave^H8573 breast^H2373 and as the right^H3225 shoulder^H7785 are thine.¹⁹All the heave offerings^H8641 of the holy things^H6944, which the children^H1121 of Israel^H3478 offer^H7311 unto the LORD^H3068, have I given^H5414 thee, and thy sons^H1121 and thy daughters^H1323 with thee, by a statute^H2706 for ever^H5769: it is a covenant^H1285 of salt^H4417 for ever^H5769 before^H6440 the LORD^H3068 unto thee and to thy seed^H2233 with thee.²⁰And the LORD^H3068 spake^H559 unto Aaron^H175, Thou shalt have no inheritance^H5157 in their land^H776, neither shalt thou have any part^H2506 among^H8432 them: I am thy part^H2506 and thine inheritance^H5159 among^H8432 the children^H1121 of Israel^H3478.

²¹And, behold, I have given^H5414 the children^H1121 of Levi^H3878 all the tenth^H4643 in Israel^H3478 for an inheritance^H5159, for^H2500 their service^H5656 which they serve^H5647, even the service^H5656 of the tabernacle^H168 of the congregation^H4150.²²Neither must the children^H1121 of Israel^H3478 henceforth^H5750 come nigh^H7126 the tabernacle^H168 of the congregation^H4150, lest they bear^H5375 sin^H2399, and die^H4191.²³But the Levites^H3881 shall do^H5647 the service^H5656 of the tabernacle^H168 of the congregation^H4150, and they shall bear^H5375 their iniquity^H5771: it shall be a statute^H2708 for ever^H5769 throughout your generations^H1755, that among^H8432 the children^H1121 of Israel^H3478 they have^H5157 no inheritance^H5159.²⁴But the tithes^H4643 of the children^H1121 of Israel^H3478, which they offer^H7311 as an heave offering^H8641 unto the LORD^H3068, I have given^H5414 to the Levites^H3881 to inherit^H5159: therefore I have said^H559 unto them, Among^H8432 the children^H1121 of Israel^H3478 they shall have^H5157 no inheritance^H5159.

²⁵And the LORD^H3068 spake^H1696 unto Moses^H4872, saying^H559,²⁶Thus speak^H1696 unto the Levites^H3881, and say^H559 unto them, When ye take^H3947 of the children^H1121 of Israel^H3478 the tithes^H4643 which I have given^H5414 you from them for your inheritance^H5159, then ye shall offer^H7311 up an heave offering^H8641 of it for the LORD^H3068, even a tenth^H4643 part of the tithe^H4643.²⁷And this your heave offering^H8641 shall be reckoned^H2803 unto you, as though it were the corn^H1715 of the threshingfloor^H1637, and as the fulness^H4395 of the winepress^H3342.²⁸Thus ye also shall offer^H7311 an heave offering^H8641 unto the LORD^H3068 of all your tithes^H4643, which ye receive^H3947 of the children^H1121 of Israel^H3478; and ye shall give^H5414 thereof the LORD'S^H3068 heave offering^H8641 to Aaron^H175 the priest^H3548.²⁹Out of all your gifts^H4979 ye shall offer^H7311 every heave offering^H8641 of the LORD^H3068, of all the best^H2459 thereof, even the hallowed part^H4720 thereof out of it.³⁰Therefore thou shalt say^H559 unto them, When ye have heaved^H7311 the best^H2459 thereof from it, then it shall be counted^H2803 unto the Levites^H3881 as the increase^H8393 of the threshingfloor^H1637, and as the increase^H8393 of the winepress^H3342.³¹And ye shall eat^H398 it in every place^H4725, ye and your households^H1004: for it is your reward^H7939 for^H2500 your service^H5656 in the tabernacle^H168 of the congregation^H4150.³²And ye shall bear^H5375 no sin^H2399 by reason of it, when ye have heaved^H7311 from it the best^H2459 of it: neither shall ye pollute^H2490 the holy things^H6944 of the children^H1121 of Israel^H3478, lest ye die^H4191.
