The LORD said to Aaron, “You shall have no inheritance in their land, neither shall you have any portion amongst them. I am your portion and your inheritance amongst the children of Israel.

“To the children of Levi, behold, I have given all the tithe in Israel for an inheritance, in return for their service which they serve, even the service of the Tent of Meeting.

Henceforth the children of Israel shall not come near the Tent of Meeting, lest they bear sin, and die.

But the Levites shall do the service of the Tent of Meeting, and they shall bear their iniquity. It shall be a statute forever throughout your generations. Amongst the children of Israel, they shall have no inheritance.

For the tithe of the children of Israel, which they offer as a wave offering to the LORD, I have given to the Levites for an inheritance. Therefore I have said to them, ‘Amongst the children of Israel they shall have no inheritance.’”
25 BOEIPA loh Moses tea voek tih,
The LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
26 “Levi te voek lamtah amih te thui pah. Israel ca taeng lamkah parha pakhat te doe pah, tete amih taeng lamloh nangmih taengah namamih kah rho la kam paek. Te dongah parha pakhatkhui lamkah parha pakhatte BOEIPA kah khosaa la tloeng uh.
“Moreover you shall speak to the Levites, and tell them, ‘When you take of the children of Israel the tithe which I have given you from them for your inheritance, then you shall offer up a wave offering of it for the LORD, a tithe of the tithe.
27 Nangmih kah khosaate nangmih ham canghlomkhui lamkah cangpai bangla, va-am lamkah thaihhmin bangla nawt saeh.
Your wave offering shall be credited to you, as though it were the grain of the threshing floor, and as the fullness of the wine press.
28 Nangmih khaw Israel carhoek taeng lamkahna dang na parha pakhat boeih lamkahte BOEIPA kah khosaa la tloeng uh. Tekhui lamkah te BOEIPA kah khosaa la khosoih Aaron taengah pae uh.
Thus you also shall offer a wave offering to the LORD of all your tithes, which you receive of the children of Israel; and of it you shall give the LORD’s wave offering to Aaron the priest.
29 Nangmih kah kutdoe cungkuemkhui lamkah khaw, a rhokso kah a tha cungkuem lamkah khaw BOEIPA kah khosaa la boeih tloeng uh.
Out of all your gifts, you shall offer every wave offering to the LORD, of all its best parts, even the holy part of it.’
30 Te dongah amih te thui pah. Te lamkah aa kuel tha la na tloeng uh khaw Levi ham tah cangtilhmuen kah cangthaih neh va-am kah a thaih laa nawt bitni.
“Therefore you shall tell them, ‘When you heave its best from it, then it shall be credited to the Levites as the increase of the threshing floor, and as the increase of the wine press.
31 Te te na hmuen takuem neh na imkhui ah ca uh. Tete tingtunnah dap ah nangmih kah thothuengnah a yueng a tlang la nangmih kah thapang ni.
You may eat it anywhere, you and your households, for it is your reward in return for your service in the Tent of Meeting.
32 Tekhui lamkah a tha te na tloeng uh vaengah tholhnah la na phuei uh mahpawh. Te dongah Israel ca rhoek kah hmuencim tena poeih uh pawt daengahnina duek uh pawt eh?,” a ti nah.
You shall bear no sin by reason of it, when you have heaved from it its best. You shall not profane the holy things of the children of Israel, that you not die.’”
