Numbers 18:29-31
Contemporary English Version
29 so the best of what you receive will be mine.
30 After you have dedicated the best parts to me, you can eat the rest, just as the Israelites eat part of their grain and wine after offering them to me.[a] 31 Your share may be eaten anywhere by anyone in your family, because it is your pay for working at the sacred tent.

New International Version
29 You must present as the Lord’s portion the best and holiest part of everything given to you.’
30 “Say to the Levites: ‘When you present the best part, it will be reckoned to you as the product of the threshing floor or the winepress.(A) 31 You and your households may eat the rest of it anywhere, for it is your wages for your work at the tent of meeting.(B)
