Leviticus 7:33-38

33 The right thigh will belong to the son of Aaron who offers the blood and fat of the well-being offering.

34 I have taken the breast of the uplifted offering and the thigh that is given by the Israelites from their communal sacrifices of well-being, and have given them to Aaron the priest and to his sons as a permanent portion from the Israelites.

35 This is what Aaron and his sons are allotted from the LORD's food gifts once they have been presented to serve the LORD as priests.

36 The LORD commanded that these things be given to the priests by the Israelites, following their anointment. It is their permanent portion throughout their future generations.

38 which the LORD commanded Moses at Mount Sinai on the day when he ordered the Israelites to present their offerings to the LORD, in the Sinai desert.
