신명기 14:27의 미드라쉬
וְהַלֵּוִ֥י אֲשֶׁר־בִּשְׁעָרֶ֖יךָ לֹ֣א תַֽעַזְבֶ֑נּוּ כִּ֣י אֵ֥ין ל֛וֹ חֵ֥לֶק וְנַחֲלָ֖ה עִמָּֽךְ׃ (ס)
네 성읍에 거하는 레위인은 너희 중에 분깃이나 기업이 없는 자니 또한 저버리지 말지니라
Sifrei Devarim
(Devarim 14:27) "And the Levite who is in your gate, you shall not forsake him" (by not giving him first tithe): Wherever you find this Levite, give him of his portion (first-tithe). If he does not have his portion, he gives him second-tithe. If he does not have second-tithe, he gives him poor-tithe. If he does not have poor-tithe, he gives him peace-offerings. If he does not have peace-offerings, he feeds him from charity, it being written (26) "you … (27) and the Levite."
