20 And the Lord spoke unto Aaron, Thou shalt have no inheritance in their land, neither shalt thou have any part among them. I am thy part and thine inheritance among the sons of Israel.
21 And, behold, I have given the sons of Levi all the tithes in Israel for an inheritance, for their ministry because they serve in the ministry of the tabernacle of the testimony.
22 Neither must the sons of Israel from now on come near the tabernacle of the testimony lest they bear sin and die because of it.
23 But the Levites shall do the service of the tabernacle of the testimony, and they shall bear their iniquity by a perpetual statute throughout your ages, and they shall not possess an inheritance among the sons of Israel.
24 For unto the Levites I have given the tithes of the sons of Israel as inheritance, which they shall offer unto the Lord as offerings; therefore, I have said unto them, Among the sons of Israel they shall possess no inheritance.
25 And the Lord spoke unto Moses, saying,
26 Thus shalt thou speak unto the Levites and say unto them, When ye take the tithes from the sons of Israel which I have given you from them for your inheritance, then ye shall present a tithe of the tithes as an offering unto the Lord.
