Numbers 18:28-30
New English Translation
28 Thus you are to offer up a raised offering to the Lord of all your tithes that you receive from the Israelites; and you must give the Lord’s raised offering from it to Aaron the priest. 29 From all your gifts you must offer up every raised offering due[a] the Lord, from all the best of it, and the holiest part of it.’[b]
30 “Therefore you will say to them,[c] ‘When you offer up[d] the best of it, then it will be credited to the Levites as the product of the threshing floor and as the product of the winepress.
