1It shall be, when you have come in to the land which Yahuah your Elohim gives you for an inheritance, possess it, and dwell in it, 2that you shall take some of the first of all the fruit of the ground, which you shall bring in from your land that Yahuah your Elohim gives you. You shall put it in a basket, and shall go to the place which Yahuah your Elohim shall choose to cause his name to dwell there. 3You shall come to the priest who shall be in those days, and tell him, “I profess today to Yahuah your Elohim, that I have come to the land which Yahuah swore to our fathers to give us.” 4The priest shall take the basket out of your hand, and set it down before Yahuah your Elohim’s altar. 5You shall answer and say before Yahuah your Elohim, “My father was a Syrian ready to perish. He went down into Egypt, and lived there, few in number. There he became a great, mighty, and populous nation.” “ 6The Egyptians mistreated us, afflicted us, and imposed hard labor on us. 7Then we cried to Yahuah, Elohim of our fathers. Yahuah heard our voice, and saw our affliction, our toil, and our oppression. 8Yahuah brought us out of Egypt with a mighty hand, with an outstretched arm, with great terror, with signs, and with wonders; 9and he has brought us into this place, and has given us this land, a land flowing with milk and honey. 10Now, behold, I have brought the first of the fruit of the ground, which you, Yahuah, have given me.” You shall set it down before Yahuah your Elohim, and worship before Yahuah your Elohim. 11You shall rejoice in all the good which Yahuah your Elohim has given to you, and to your house, you, and the Levite, and the foreigner who is among you. 12When you have finished tithing all the tithe of your increase in the third year, which is the year of tithing, then you shall give it to the Levite, to the foreigner, to the fatherless, and to the widow, that they may eat within your gates and be filled. 13You shall say before Yahuah your Elohim, “I have put away the set-apart things out of my house, and also have given them to the Levite, to the foreigner, to the fatherless, and to the widow, according to all your commandment which you have commanded me. I have not transgressed any of your commandments, neither have I forgotten them. 14I have not eaten of it in my mourning, neither have I removed any of it while I was unclean, nor given of it for the dead. I have listened to Yahuah my Elohim’s voice. I have done according to all that you have commanded me. 15Look down from your set-apart habitation, from heaven, and bless your people Israel, and the ground which you have given us, as you swore to our fathers, a land flowing with milk and honey.” 16Today Yahuah your Elohim commands you to do these statutes and ordinances. You shall therefore keep and do them with all your heart and with all your soul. 17You have declared today that Yahuah is your Elohim, and that you would walk in his ways, keep his statutes, his commandments, and his ordinances, and listen to his voice. 18Yahuah has declared today that you are a people for his own possession, as he has promised you, and that you should keep all his commandments. 19He will make you high above all nations that he has made, in praise, in name, and in honor, and that you may be a set-apart people to Yahuah your Elohim, as he has spoken.
