Laws Concerning the Cities of Refuge, the Sacredness of Landmarks,and the Punishment of False Witnesses - Deuteronomy 19 After laying down the most important features in the national constitution, Moses glances at the manifold circumstances of civil and family life, and notices in this and the two following chapters the different ways in which the lives of individuals might be endangered, for the purpose of awakening in the minds of the people a holy reverence for human life.

Laws concerning the former we had in the close of the foregoing chapter, directions are in this given concerning the latter. Land-marks are here set between the estates of the priests and those of the people. I. Care is taken that the priests entangle not themselves with the affairs of this life, nor enrich themselves with the wealth of this world; they have better things to mind. They shall have no part nor inheritance with Israel, that is, no share either in the spoils taken in war or in the land that was to be divided by lot, Deu 18:1. Their warfare and husbandry are both spiritual, and enough to fill their hands both with work and profit and to content them. The Lord is their inheritance, Deu 18:2. Note, Those that have God for their inheritance, according to the new covenant, should not be greedy of great things in the world, neither gripe what they have nor grasp at more, but look upon all present things with the indifference which becomes those that believe God to be all-sufficient. II. Care is likewise taken that they want not any of the comforts and conveniences of this life. Though God, who is a Spirit, is their inheritance, it does not therefore follow that they must live upon the air; no, 1. The people must provide for them. They must have their due from the people, Deu 18:3. Their maintenance must not depend upon the generosity of the people, but they must be by law entitled to it. He that is taught in the word ought in justice to communicate to him that teaches him; and he that has the benefit of solemn religious assemblies ought to contribute to the comfortable support of those that preside in such assemblies.

لأَجْلِ ذلِكَ لَمْ يَكُنْ لِلاَوِي قِسْمٌ وَلاَ نَصِيبٌ مَعَ إِخْوَتِهِ. الرَّبُّ هُوَ نَصِيبُهُ كَمَا كَلَّمَهُ الرَّبُّ إِلهُكَ.
اِحْتَرِزْ مِنْ أَنْ تَتْرُكَ اللاَّوِيَّ، كُلَّ أَيَّامِكَ عَلَى أَرْضِكَ.
وَأَمَّا سِبْطُ لاَوِي فَلَمْ يُعْطِهِ مُوسَى نَصِيبًا. الرَّبُّ إِلهُ إِسْرَائِيلَ هُوَ نَصِيبُهُمْ كَمَا كَلَّمَهُمْ.
وَقَالَ الرَّبُّ لِهَارُونَ: «لاَ تَنَالُ نَصِيبًا فِي أَرْضِهِمْ، وَلاَ يَكُونُ لَكَ قِسْمٌ فِي وَسَطِهِمْ. أَنَا قِسْمُكَ وَنَصِيبُكَ فِي وَسَطِ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ.
وَكَانَ الْمَعْدُودُونَ مِنْهُمْ ثَلاَثَةً وَعِشْرِينَ أَلْفًا، كُلَّ ذَكَرٍ مِنِ ابْنِ شَهْرٍ فَصَاعِدًا. لأَنَّهُمْ لَمْ يُعَدُّوا بَيْنَ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ، إِذْ لَمْ يُعْطَ لَهُمْ نَصِيبٌ بَيْنَ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ.
لكِنْ لِسِبْطِ لاَوِي لَمْ يُعْطِ نَصِيبًا. وَقَائِدُ الرَّبِّ إِلهِ إِسْرَائِيلَ هِيَ نَصِيبُهُ كَمَا كَلَّمَهُ.
لأَنَّهُ لَيْسَ لِلاَّوِيِّينَ قِسْمٌ فِي وَسَطِكُمْ، لأَنَّ كَهَنُوتَ الرَّبِّ هُوَ نَصِيبُهُمْ. وَجَادُ وَرَأُوبَيْنُ وَنِصْفُ سِبْطِ مَنَسَّى قَدْ أَخَذُوا نَصِيبَهُمْ فِي عَبْرِ الأُرْدُنِّ نَحْوَ الشُّرُوقِ، الَّذِي أَعْطَاهُمْ إِيَّاهُ مُوسَى عَبْدُ الرَّبِّ».
