Deuteronomy 26:1-11 - Giving The Firstfruits
1 When thou art come into the land which the LORD thy God giveth thee to inherit and hast enjoyed it and dwellest therein: 2 take of the first of all the fruit of the earth, which thou hast brought in out of the land that the LORD thy God giveth thee and put it in a maund and go unto the place which the LORD thy God shall choose to make his name dwell there. 3 And thou shalt come unto the priest that shall be in those days and say unto him, 'I knowledge this day unto the LORD thy God, that I am come unto the country which the LORD sware unto our fathers for to give us.'
4 And the priest shall take the maund out of thine hand, and set it down before the altar of the LORD thy God. 5 And thou shalt answer and say before the LORD thy God, 'The Syrians would have destroyed my father, and he went down into Egypt and sojourned there with a few folk and grew there unto a nation great, mighty and full of people. 6 And the Egyptians vexed us and troubled us, and laded us with cruel bondage. 7 And we cried unto the LORD God of our fathers, and the LORD heard our voice and looked on our adversity, labour and oppression. 8 And the LORD brought us out of Egypt with a mighty hand and a stretched out arm and with great terribleness and with signs and wonders. 9 And he hath brought us into this place and hath given us this land that floweth with milk and honey. 10 And now, lo: I have brought the first fruits of the land which the LORD hath given me.' And set it before the LORD thy God, and worship before the LORD thy God, 11 and rejoice over all the good things which the LORD thy God hath given unto thee and unto thine house, both thou the Levite and the stranger that is among you.
