018:024 For the tithe of the children of Israel, which they offer as a wave
offering to Yahweh, I have given to the Levites for an inheritance:
therefore I have said to them, Among the children of Israel
they shall have no inheritance.
018:025 Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying,
018:026 Moreover you shall speak to the Levites, and tell them,
When you take of the children of Israel the tithe which I
have given you from them for your inheritance, then you
shall offer up a wave offering of it for Yahweh, a tithe
of the tithe.
018:027 Your wave offering shall be reckoned to you, as though it
were the grain of the threshing floor, and as the fullness
of the winepress.
018:028 Thus you also shall offer a wave offering to Yahweh of all
your tithes, which you receive of the children of Israel;
and of it you shall give Yahweh's wave offering to Aaron the priest.
018:029 Out of all your gifts you shall offer every wave offering
of Yahweh, of all the best of it, even the holy part of it
out of it.
018:030 Therefore you shall tell them, When you heave the best of it
from it, then it shall be reckoned to the Levites as the increase
of the threshing floor, and as the increase of the winepress.
018:031 You shall eat it in every place, you and your households:
for it is your reward in return for your service in the
tent of meeting.
018:032 You shall bear no sin by reason of it, when you have heaved
from it the best of it: and you shall not profane the holy
things of the children of Israel, that you not die.
019:001 Yahweh spoke to Moses and to Aaron, saying,
019:002 This is the statute of the law which Yahweh has commanded,
saying, Speak to the children of Israel, that they bring
you a red heifer without spot, in which is no blemish,
[and] on which never came yoke.
019:003 You shall give her to Eleazar the priest, and he shall bring
her forth outside of the camp, and one shall kill her
before his face:
019:004 and Eleazar the priest shall take of her blood with his finger,
and sprinkle her blood toward the front of the tent of
meeting seven times.
019:005 One shall burn the heifer in his sight; her skin, and her flesh,
and her blood, with her dung, shall he burn:
019:006 and the priest shall take cedar wood, and hyssop, and scarlet,
and cast it into the midst of the burning of the heifer.
019:007 Then the priest shall wash his clothes, and he shall bathe
his flesh in water, and afterward he shall come into the camp,
and the priest shall be unclean until the even.
019:008 He who burns her shall wash his clothes in water, and bathe
his flesh in water, and shall be unclean until the even.
019:009 A man who is clean shall gather up the ashes of the heifer,
and lay them up outside of the camp in a clean place;
