28And this shall be their inheritance: I am their inheritance. And you shall give them no possession in Israel; I am their possession.

29They shall eat the grain offering, the sin offering, and the guilt offering, and every devoted thing in Israel shall be theirs.

30And the first of all the firstfruits of everything, and every contribution from all your contributions, shall belong to the priests. You shall give the first of your dough to the priest, to cause a blessing to rest on your house.
