Numbers 18:11

וְזֶה־לְּךָ֞ תְּרוּמַ֣ת מַתָּנָ֗ם לְכָל־תְּנוּפֹת֮ בְּנֵ֣י יִשְׂרָאֵל֒ לְךָ֣ נְתַתִּ֗ים וּלְבָנֶ֧יךָ וְלִבְנֹתֶ֛יךָ אִתְּךָ֖ לְחָק־עֹולָ֑ם כָּל־טָהֹ֥ור בְּבֵיתְךָ֖ יֹאכַ֥ל אֹתֹֽו׃

And this is yours: the offering of their gift, all the wave offerings of the children of Yisra’el. I have given them to you, and to your sons and daughters with you, as a perpetual statute. Everyone who is clean in your house may eat it.
