On the first day, take the fruit of fair trees, branches of palm-trees, and branches of thick trees and trees from the riverside, and be glad before the Lord for seven days.

then shall the priest command that there be brought for him that shall be cleansed two living birds that are clean, and cypress wood, and a piece of purple cloth and hyssop.

And the priest shall take the living bird and the cypress wood and the purple and the hyssop, and shall dip them and the living bird in the blood of the slain bird, and in the running water,

And let him take to cleanse the house withal: two birds, cypress wood, and purple cloth and hyssop.

and take the cypress wood, the hyssop, the purple and the living bird, and dip them in the blood of the slain bird and in the running water, and sprinkle upon the house seven times,

I will give you rain at the right time, and the land will yield its produce, and the trees of the field will bear their fruit.

and your strength will be used up for nothing. Your land will not yield its produce, and the trees of the land will not bear their fruit.

“Every tenth of the land’s produce, grain from the soil or fruit from the trees, belongs to the Lord; it is holy to the Lord.

"'When you come into the land, and have planted all kinds of trees for food, then you shall count their fruit as forbidden. Three years shall they be forbidden to you. It shall not be eaten.

In the fifth year you may eat the fruit [of the trees], this is so that their yield may increase for you; I am the Lord your God.
