English Translation

"For 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, 'They shall have no inheritance among the sons of Israel.'"

Hebrew Text (Torah)

כד כִּי אֶת-מַעְשַׂר בְּנֵי-יִשְׂרָאֵל, אֲשֶׁר יָרִימוּ לַיהוָה תְּרוּמָה, נָתַתִּי לַלְוִיִּם, לְנַחֲלָה; עַל-כֵּן, אָמַרְתִּי לָהֶם, בְּתוֹךְ בְּנֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל, לֹא יִנְחֲלוּ נַחֲלָה. {פ}

Greek Text (Septuagint)

24 ὅτι τὰ ἐπιδέκατα τῶν υἱῶν Ισραηλ, ὅσα ἂν ἀφορίσωσιν κυρίῳ ἀφαίρεμα, δέδωκα τοῖς Λευίταις ἐν κλήρῳ· διὰ τοῦτο εἴρηκα αὐτοῖς Ἐν μέσῳ υἱῶν Ισραηλ οὐ κληρονομήσουσιν κλῆρον.
