1. The priests the Levites, and all the tribe of Levi, shall have no part nor inheritance with Israel: they shall eat the offerings of the LORD made by fire, as his inheritance.
2. Therefore shall they have no inheritance among their brethren: the LORD is their inheritance, as he has said unto them.
3. And this shall be the priest's due from the people, from them that offer a sacrifice, whether it be ox or sheep; and they shall give unto the priest the shoulder, and the two jowls, and the stomach.
4. The firstfruit also of your grain, of your wine, and of your oil, and the first of the fleece of your sheep, shall you give him.
5. For the LORD your God has chosen him out of all your tribes, to stand to minister in the name of the LORD, him and his sons forever.
6. And if a Levite come from any of your gates out of all Israel, where he sojourned, and come with all the desire of his mind unto the place which the LORD shall choose;
7. Then he shall minister in the name of the LORD his God, as all his brethren the Levites do, who stand there before the LORD.
8. They shall have equal portions to eat, besides that which comes of the sale of his family possessions.
9. When you are come into the land which the LORD your God gives you, you shall not learn to do after the abominations of those nations.
10. There shall not be found among you any one that makes his son or his daughter to pass through the fire, or that uses divination, or sorcery, or interprets omens, or is a witch,
11. Or casts spells, or is a medium, or a wizard, or consults the dead.
12. For all that do these things are an abomination unto the LORD: and because of these abominations the LORD your God does drive them out from before you.
13. You shall be perfect with the LORD your God.
