Numbers 18:11

And this is yours as well: the offering of their gifts, along with all the wave offerings of the Israelites. I have given this to you and your sons and daughters as a permanent statute. Every ceremonially clean person in your household may eat it.

Study note

Setting — God addresses Moses and Aaron, establishing the material inheritance for the priestly line during the organization of the wilderness camp. The words — תְּרוּמַ֣ת (terumat) translates as "contribution" or "offering," while נְתַתִּ֗י (netatti) means "I have given." The thread — This provision parallels the priestly shares in Deuteronomy 18:3, the consecrated wave offerings in Exodus 29:27, and the consumption rules for Leviticus 10:14. Why it lands — The text mandates that ceremonially clean household members consume designated priestly portions as a fixed legal provision.

King James Version

And this is thine; the heave offering of their gift, with all the wave offerings of the children of Israel: I have given them unto thee, and to thy sons and to thy daughters with thee, by a statute for ever: every one that is clean in thy house shall eat of it.
