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.
27 And ye shall count your offering as though it were the grain of the threshingfloor and as the fullness of the winepress.
28 Thus ye also shall offer an offering unto the Lord of all your tithes, which ye shall have received of the sons of Israel; and ye shall give of them an offering unto the Lord, to Aaron the priest.
29 Out of all your gifts ye shall offer every offering unto the Lord, of all the best thereof ye shall offer the portion that is to be dedicated.
