Numbers 18:17 in Context — Numbers 18
15 Tout premier-né de toute chair, qu’ils offriront à l’Éternel, tant des hommes que des animaux, sera pour toi. Seulement, tu feras racheter le premier-né de l’homme, et tu feras racheter le premier-né d’un animal impur.
16 Tu les feras racheter dès l’âge d’un mois, d’après ton estimation, au prix de cinq sicles d’argent, selon le sicle du sanctuaire, qui est de vingt guéras.
17 Mais tu ne feras point racheter le premier-né du bœuf, ni le premier-né de la brebis, ni le premier-né de la chèvre: ce sont des choses saintes. Tu répandras leur sang sur l’autel, et tu brûleras leur graisse: ce sera un sacrifice consumé par le feu, d’une agréable odeur à l’Éternel.
18 Leur chair sera pour toi, comme la poitrine qu’on agite de côté et d’autre et comme l’épaule droite.
19 Je te donne, à toi, à tes fils et à tes filles avec toi, par une loi perpétuelle, toutes les offrandes saintes que les enfants d’Israël présenteront à l’Éternel par élévation. C’est une alliance inviolable et à perpétuité devant l’Éternel, pour toi et pour ta postérité avec toi.
