Numbers 18:18-19
Numbers 18:17-19 The Message (MSG)
“On the other hand, you don’t redeem a firstborn ox, sheep, or goat—they are holy. Instead splash their blood on the Altar and burn their fat as a Fire-Gift, a pleasing fragrance to GOD. But you get the meat, just as you get the breast from the Wave-Offering and the right thigh. All the holy offerings that the People of Israel set aside for GOD, I’m turning over to you and your children. That’s the standard rule and includes both you and your children—a Covenant-of-Salt, eternal and unchangeable before GOD.”
Numbers 18:18-19 King James Version (KJV)
And the flesh of them shall be thine, as the wave breast and as the right shoulder are thine. All the heave offerings of the holy things, which the children of Israel offer unto the LORD, have I given thee, and thy sons and thy daughters with thee, by a statute for ever: it is a covenant of salt for ever before the LORD unto thee and to thy seed with thee.
Numbers 18:18-19 New American Standard Bible - NASB 1995 (NASB1995)

It is an everlasting covenant of salt before the LORD to you and your descendants with you.”
Numbers 18:18-19 New Century Version (NCV)
But the meat will be yours, just as the breast that is presented and the right thigh will be yours.

This is a lasting agreement of salt before the LORD for you and your children forever.”
Numbers 18:18-19 American Standard Version (ASV)
And the flesh of them shall be thine, as the wave-breast and as the right thigh, it shall be thine.
