²⁴ Instead, I give to the Levites as their inheritance the tithes that the Israelites present as an offering to the Lord.^(A) That is why I said concerning them: ‘They will have no inheritance among the Israelites.’”

⁹ That is why the Levites have no share or inheritance among their fellow Israelites; the Lord is their inheritance,^(A) as the Lord your God told them.)

²⁷ And do not neglect the Levites^(A) living in your towns, for they have no allotment or inheritance of their own.^(B)

³³ But to the tribe of Levi, Moses had given no inheritance;^(A) the Lord, the God of Israel, is their inheritance,^(B) as he promised them.^(C)
