The priests, the Levites, and the whole tribe of Levi, shall have no portion nor inheritance with Israel: they shall eat the offerings of Jehovah made by fire and his inheritance.
Therefore shall they have no inheritance among their brethren. Jehovah is their inheritance, as he hath said unto them.
And this shall be the priest’s due, from the people, from them that sacrifice a sacrifice, whether ox, or sheep: they shall give unto the priest the shoulder, and the jawbones, and the maw.
The firstfruit of thy corn, of thy wine, and of thine oil, and the first of the fleece of thy sheep shalt thou give him.
For Jehovah thy God hath chosen him out of all thy tribes to stand to minister in the name of Jehovah, him and his sons forever.
And if a Levite come from any of thy gates out of all Israel, where he sojourned, and come with all the desire of his mind unto the place which Jehovah shall choose;
then he shall minister in the name of Jehovah his God, as all his brethren the Levites do, which stand there before Jehovah.
They shall have like portions to eat, beside that which cometh of the sale of his patrimony.
When thou art come into the land which Jehovah thy God giveth thee, thou shalt not learn to do according to the abominations of those nations.
There shall not be found among you he that maketh his son or his daughter to pass through the fire, that useth divination, that useth auguries, or an enchanter, or a sorcerer,
or a charmer, or one that inquireth of a spirit of Python, or a soothsayer, or one that consulteth the dead.
For all that do these things are an abomination unto Jehovah: and because of these abominations Jehovah thy God doth drive them out from before thee.
Thou shalt be perfect with Jehovah thy God.
For these nations, which thou shalt possess, hearkened unto observers of times, and unto diviners: but Jehovah thy God hath not suffered thee so to do.
Jehovah thy God will raise up unto thee a prophet from the midst of thee, of thy brethren, like unto me; unto him ye shall hearken;
according to all that thou desiredst of Jehovah thy God in Horeb in the day of the assembly, saying, Let me not hear again the voice of Jehovah my God, neither let me see this great fire anymore, that I die not.
And Jehovah said unto me, They have well spoken that which they have spoken.
I will raise them up a prophet from among their brethren, like unto thee, and will put my words in his mouth; and he shall speak unto them all that I shall command him.
It shall come to pass that whosoever will not hearken unto my words which he shall speak in my name, I will require it of him.
But the prophet, which shall presume to speak a word in my name, which I have not commanded him to speak, or that shall speak in the name of other gods, even that prophet shall die.
And if thou say in thy heart, How shall we know the word that Jehovah hath not spoken?
When a prophet speaketh in the name of Jehovah, and the thing followeth not, nor cometh to pass, that is the word which Jehovah hath not spoken; the prophet hath spoken it presumptuously: be not afraid of him.
