16 And those redeemed of the devoted things you shall redeem when one month old, aaccording to your valuation, for five shekels of silver, according to the shekel of the sanctuary, which is btwenty gerahs.
17 aBut the firstborn of a cow, the firstborn of a sheep, or the firstborn of a goat you shall not redeem; they are holy. bYou shall sprinkle their blood on the altar, and burn their fat as an offering made by fire for a sweet aroma to the Lord.
18 And their flesh shall be yours, just as the awave breast and the right thigh are yours.
19 “All the heave offerings of the holy things, which the children of Israel offer to the Lord, I have given to you and your sons and daughters with you as an ordinance forever; ait is a covenant of salt forever before the Lord with you and your descendants with you.”
20 Then the Lord said to Aaron: “You shall have ano inheritance in their land, nor shall you have any portion among them; bI am your portion and your inheritance among the children of Israel.
