It shall be your portion.You shall sanctify the breast of the wave offering and the thigh of the wave offering, which is waved, and which is raised up, of the ram of consecration, even of that which is for Aaron, and of that which is for his sons.It shall be for Aaron and his sons as their portion forever from the children of Israel; for it is a wave offering.

It shall not be eaten, because it is holy.“ You shall do so to Aaron and to his sons, according to all that I have commanded you. You shall consecrate them seven days.Every day you shall offer the bull of sin offering for atonement. You shall cleanse the altar when you make atonement for it.
