1 “The priestly tribe of Levi is not to receive any share of land in Israel; instead, they are to live on the offerings and other sacrifices given to the Lord.
2 They are to own no land, as the other tribes do; their share is the privilege of being the Lord's priests, as the Lord has promised.
3 “Whenever cattle or sheep are sacrificed, the priests are to be given the shoulder, the jaw, and the stomach.
4 They are to receive the first share of the corn, wine, olive oil, and wool.
5 The Lord chose from all your tribes the tribe of Levi to serve him as priests for ever.
