Leviticus 7:34-36

New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition

³⁴ For I have taken the breast of the elevation offering and the thigh that is offered from the Israelites, from their sacrifices of well-being, and have given them to Aaron the priest and to his sons, as a perpetual due from the Israelites.^{(A) 35} This is the portion allotted to Aaron and to his sons from the offerings made by fire^[a] to the Lord, once they have been brought forward to serve the Lord as priests; ³⁶ these the Lord commanded to be given them, when he anointed them, as a perpetual due from the Israelites throughout their generations.”
