Portions for Levites

Deu 18:1–8

18None of the Levites (including the priests) will receive any land as an inheritance like the other Israelis. Instead, the people’s offerings to Yahweh will be their inheritance to sustain them. 2Yes, unlike fellow Israelis, they won’t have any inherited landYahweh is their inheritance like he told them.[ref]

3This is the requirement that the people do for the priests: whenever they bring a bull or a sheep as a sacrifice, they must give the shoulder, the cheeks, and the stomach to the priest. 4Also you must give the Levites the firstfruits of your grain, your grape juice, your olive oil, and the wool shorn from your sheep, 5because your god Yahweh chose them out of all your tribes for them and their descendants permanently to serve him.

6If a Levite chooses to move his family from their town in any part of Yisrael and sincerely wants to go to the place that Yahweh will choose, 7then he can join the other Levites there to serve his god Yahweh 8and must be given a portion like all the others. (He can keep anything he got from the sale of their family home.)
