“You must be in charge of the work done at the holy place and at the altar. Then I won’t show my anger against the Israelites again. I have chosen the other Levites from among the Israelites to help you. They are a gift given to the Lord to do whatever work is necessary at the tent of meeting. Numbers 18:5-6 GW
Only you and your sons may do the work of priests—everything done at the altar and under the canopy. This is my gift to you: You may serve me as priests. Anyone else who comes near ⌞the holy place to do this work⌟ must die.” Numbers 18:7 GW
The Lord said to Aaron, “I am putting you in charge of all the contributions given to me. I am giving you and your descendants all the holy gifts from the Israelites as your share. These contributions will always be yours. Numbers 18:8 GW
Instead, I will give the Levites what the Israelites contribute to the Lord—one-tenth of the Israelites’ income. This is why I said about them, ‘They will own no property as the other Israelites do.’ ” Numbers 18:24 GW
The Lord said to Moses, “Speak to the Levites and say to them: You will take one-tenth of the Israelites’ income which I’m giving you as your property. When you do, you must contribute one-tenth of that income as your contribution to the Lord. Your contribution will be considered to be grain from the threshing floor or juice from the winepress. So you, too, will contribute one-tenth of your income to the Lord out of all that you receive from the Israelites’ income. You will give the Lord’s contribution to the priest Aaron. Numbers 18:25-28 GW
Your throne, O God, is forever and ever. The scepter in your kingdom is a scepter for justice. You have loved what is right and hated what is wrong. That is why God, your God, has anointed you, rather than your companions, with the oil of joy. Psalms 45:6-7 GW
Listen, daughter! Look closely! Turn your ear ⌞toward me⌟. Forget your people, and forget your father’s house. The king longs for your beauty. He is your Lord. Worship him. Psalms 45:10-11 GW
