Numbers 18:6-8
Legacy Standard Bible
6 And behold, I Myself (A)have taken your brothers the Levites from among the sons of Israel; they are (B)a gift to you, given to Yahweh, to perform the service for the tent of meeting. 7 But you and your sons with you shall (C)keep your priesthood in everything that concerns the altar and inside the veil, and you are to perform service. I am giving you the priesthood as (D)a [a]bestowed service, but (E)the [b]outsider who comes near shall be put to death.”
The Priests’ Portion
8 Then Yahweh spoke to Aaron, “Now behold, I Myself have given you the responsibility of My [c](F)contributions, even all the holy gifts of the sons of Israel I have given them to you as a portion and to your sons as a perpetual statute.
