Deuteronomy 18:1-2

Expanded Bible

Shares for Priests and Levites

18 The priests are from the tribe of Levi, and that tribe will not ·receive a share of the land [^Lhave an allotment or inheritance] with the Israelites. They will eat the offerings made to the Lord by fire, which is their ·share [^Linheritance]. ² They will not inherit any of the land like their brothers [Num. 26:62; Josh. 13:14; 14:4–5; 21], but they will inherit the Lord himself [10:9; Ex. 32:25–29; Josh. 18:7], as he has promised them.
