3
"And this shall be the priest's due from the people, from those who offer a sacrifice, whether it is bull or sheep: they shall give to the priest the shoulder, the cheeks, and the stomach.
4
The firstfruits of your grain and your new wine and your oil, and the first of the fleece of your sheep, you shall 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
"So if a Levite comes from any of your gates, from where he dwells among all Israel, and comes with all the desire of his mind to the place which the Lord chooses,
7
then he may serve 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 what comes from the sale of his inheritance.
9
"When you come into the land which the Lord your God is giving you, you shall not learn to follow the abominations of those nations.
10
There shall not be found among you anyone who makes his son or his daughter pass through the fire, or one who practices witchcraft, or a soothsayer, or one who interprets omens, or a sorcerer,
11
or one who conjures spells, or a medium, or a spiritist, or one who calls up the dead.
12
For all who do these things are an abomination to the Lord, and because of these abominations the Lord your God drives them out from before you.
13
You shall be blameless before the Lord your God.
