Numbers 18:21-24

21To the sons of Levi, behold, I have given all the atithe in Israel for an inheritance, in return for their service which they perform, the service of the tent of meeting. 22 bThe sons of Israel shall not come near the tent of meeting again, or they will bear sin and die. 23Only the Levites shall perform the service of the tent of meeting, and they shall cbear their iniquity; it shall be a perpetual statute throughout your generations, and among the sons of Israel dthey shall have no inheritance. 24For the tithe of the sons of Israel, which they offer as an offering to the Lord, I have given to the Levites for an inheritance; therefore I have said concerning them, ‘ eThey shall have no inheritance among the sons of Israel.’”
