10 ‘No layman, however, is to eat the holy gift; a foreign resident with the priest or a hired man shall not eat of the holy gift.

11 But if a priest buys a person as his property with his money, that one may eat of it, and those who are born in his house may eat of his food.

12 If a priest’s daughter is married to a layman, she shall not eat of the contribution of the holy gifts.

13 But if a priest’s daughter becomes a widow or divorced, and has no seed, and returns to her father’s house as in her youth, she shall eat of her father’s food; but no layman shall eat of it.

14 But if a man eats a holy gift unintentionally, then he shall add to it a fifth of it and shall give the holy gift to the priest.

15 They shall not profane the holy gifts of the sons of Israel which they raise up to Yahweh,

16 and so cause them to bear punishment for guilt by eating their holy gifts; for I am Yahweh who makes them holy.’”
