¹⁶ And ^(A)the rest of it Aaron and his sons shall eat. It shall be eaten unleavened ^(B)in a holy place. In the court of the tent of meeting they shall eat it.

^26 (A)The priest who offers it for sin shall eat it. ^(B)In a holy place it shall be eaten, in the court of the tent of meeting.

^6 (A)Every male among the priests may eat of it. It shall be eaten in a holy place. ^(B)It is most holy.

⁹ And ^(A)every contribution, all the holy donations of the people of Israel, which they bring to the priest, shall be his. ¹⁰ Each one shall keep his holy donations: whatever anyone gives to the priest shall be his.”

⁸ Then the Lord spoke to Aaron, “Behold, ^(A)I have given you charge of the contributions made to me, all the consecrated things of the people of Israel. I have given them to you ^(B)as a portion and to your sons as a perpetual due. ⁹ This shall be yours of the most holy things, reserved from the fire: every offering of theirs, every grain offering of theirs and every ^(C)sin offering of theirs and every ^(D)guilt offering of theirs, which they render to me, shall be most holy to you and to your sons. ¹⁰ In a most holy place shall you eat it. Every male may eat it; it is holy to you. ¹¹ This also is yours: the contribution of their gift, all the ^(E)wave offerings of the people of Israel. I have given them to ^(F)you, and to your sons and daughters with you, as a perpetual due. ^(G)Everyone who is clean in your house may eat it. ^12 (H)All the best of the oil and all the best of the wine and of the grain, ^(I)the firstfruits of what they give to the Lord, I give to you. ¹³ The first ripe fruits of all that is in their land, ^(J)which they bring to the Lord, shall be yours. ^(K)Everyone who is clean in your house may eat it. ^14 (L)Every devoted thing in Israel shall be yours. ^15 (M)Everything that opens the womb of all flesh, whether man or beast, which they offer to the Lord, shall be yours. Nevertheless, ^(N)the firstborn of man you shall redeem, and the firstborn of unclean animals you shall redeem. ¹⁶ And their redemption price ^(O)(at a month old you shall redeem them) you shall fix at five shekels^[a] in silver, according to the shekel of the sanctuary, ^(P)which is twenty gerahs. ^17 (Q)But the firstborn of a cow, or the firstborn of a sheep, or the firstborn of a goat, you shall not redeem; they are holy. You shall sprinkle their blood on the altar and shall burn their fat as a food offering, with a pleasing aroma to the Lord. ¹⁸ But their flesh shall be yours, as ^(R)the breast that is waved and as the right thigh are yours. ^19 (S)All the holy contributions that the people of Israel present to the Lord I give to you, and to your sons and daughters with you, as a perpetual due. ^(T)It is a covenant of salt forever before the Lord for you and for your offspring with you.” ²⁰ And the Lord said to Aaron, “You shall have no inheritance in their land, neither shall you have any portion among them. ^(U)I am your portion and your inheritance among the people of Israel.

Provision for Priests and Levites
